Embassy4u: You should have cancelled your hotel reservation when you didn't get visa or before cancellation deadline. Having failed to do that, you should have cancelled it the day your account was debited. Read the conditions attached to your reservation but generally, when a guest does not turn up, some hotel will charge for the first night only. But some will argue that they kept your room unoccupied for the period. However, you don't lose anything by asking the hotel for the refund of charges in excess of one night. Good luck. 1 Like |

cosade:Like I said before that I dont want to comment further on this issue but your latest talk on adekunle's post will make me comment further. You said we couldnt comprehend what coscade said, can you please summarise these? Was he only referring to the education officer by saying civil servants? or those working in places I mentioned are not civil servants? Dont come and lecture us on comprehension please, we all go school 2 Likes |

Goodmorning Fam, Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms out there. Please I'd like to ask a question? Is K1 visa a non immigrant or no? I've being led to understand it's a non immigrant visa but while scheduling an appointment on the site, in the non immigrant icon once its ticked there is no icon to tick the k1 visa except B1,F,J and some others but in the immigrant icon there you will find the K1 visa icon. So it's really conflicting. What do I do now as am having a hard time scheduling appointment. Am aware this is not the thread for that but can someone pls give me an answer on this? Please. Thanks guys.. |

Embassy4u:The terms and conditions state that if you don't cancel before the date, you will be debited for a day because they supposedly Kept the room for you vacant. U didn't get the visa and you didn't cancel. Sorry nna. U didn't do the needful. U can however go and read the terms and conditions |

siina: I do not want to make further comment on this issue after Lady G's detailed and very explanatory post, but will do just this one on the subject. As Lady G rightly mentioned, my post was addressed to a specific person that made the post, though others in similar situation can borrow an idea from it. In this case the OP claimed he's an Education Officer, a civil servant. Interestingly, this person did not contest the opinion given. Suddenly, this was misconstrued to public servants in CBN, NNPC etc. By the way, this category of government workers are public servants and not civil servants. Please let's focus on the reasons why this thread was created. |

I called the hotel this morning, the lady I spoke with said it's part of their terms and conditions that if one didn't cancel it some amount would be deducted.. As I went further she said I can call on Monday to speak with their MD if he can assist. .. Honestly, am feeling so bad right now. �� cosade: |
Re: USA Visit Visa Part 3 by ayenikunle: 12:26pm On Apr 08, 2018 |
Embassy4u: You didn't do your research very well... there are many hotels that won't deduct anything from your account but only require you to pay on site even after collecting card details. Moreover, you shld have cancelled immediately you didn't get the VISA. Many of the hotels give allowance for cancellation few hours before intended arrival. Some people use cards not well funded/having money for such booking if the hotel's policy is pay on site but still require card details since they are not sure of getting the VISA and immediately fund and pay once they get the VISA just to be on a safe side... Hope you get certain % of your money back. 2 Likes |

Re: USA Visit Visa Part 3 by LadyGuinivere: 2:26pm On Apr 08, 2018 |
NothingDoMe:Yes it is. I don't think we should be advising that. Booking.com is one of the few sites that accept our cards. We shouldn't cause them to stop it. The op shoulda just cancelled. He got a taste of "American efficiency " in business 1 Like |

LadyGuinivere: Booking.com reservation that almost got me turned back some years ago at Oliver Tambo airport in SA? Thank God i kept a direct hotel reservation in tact with the same hotel somehow.... Well I understand your POV. True though! It is however a safety measure I'm advocating in my opinion, not to be fraudulent, the card according to them is mostly for the purpose of verification and assuredness. So, why take too much risk? A few of the conditions can be tricky if you don't quite see them coming, booking.com tells you something and the hotel itself tells you another.... I have lost 100s of GBP to unclear conditions in the past (between 2004 and 2007) care of booking.com, some deductions were even done over a week ahead of time sef, only one hotel in Hounslow in the UK did a refund for me because I could marshal out my case one on one. Another one got me deducted for a night in Spain 24hrs to the time given to cancel, and later refunded after several back and forth via mails and calls. Lately, I have had to pay extra cash to the rate I got online for my wife because she arrived late at the hotel I reserved, same day oh, these were nowhere in the terms and conditions I read before booking. I have learnt my lessons and can't ever fall into such situations again personally! There were times they tried to withhold the whole amount instead of just one night and couldn't access the whole fund, and then they cancelled reservation. Visa applications success aren't assured, one then should thread carefully in terms of how you expose yourself to unwarranted losses. We have to avoid being blacklisted, I understand. But if you learn to fly without perching, I too have to learn to shoot without missing. Greetings to the house! 6 Likes |

LadyGuinivere: @LadyG my only problem with @cosade is that I thought he was generalizing all civil servant and the moment he insulted me on my inability to comprehend simple English... I have to give my myself brain and stay on my lane. To be honest the Education officer can not convince any V.O with that salary and that's the fact. Please let us move on from this issue. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Embassy4u: Unfortunately your money will not be refunded,You should be able to cancel the hotel booking for free immediately after the visa denial. |
