Common Agoda customer issues and complaints
Commonly reported problems include:
- Booking errors where hotels never received Agoda’s reservation details, sometimes leading to duplicate charges.
- Refund and cancellation delays — customers say requests can be ignored or take weeks to process.
- Unresponsive or scripted support — difficulty reaching live agents or receiving personalised solutions.
- Billing disputes — duplicate charges or hidden fees requiring lengthy email exchanges.
- Miscommunications with properties — especially for last-minute cancellations or booking changes.
Travellers often recommend double-checking all booking details, saving copies of policies, and being persistent but polite when following up on an issue.

Agoda key customer policies: refunds, returns, cancellations and more
- Refunds & Cancellations: Many listings allow free cancellation before a deadline. After that, penalties apply. Refunds are usually processed within 10 days once confirmed.
- Booking Changes: Some require cancellation and rebooking. Support may help change dates if the hotel allows.
- No-Show Policy: Missing check-in without prior cancellation usually means no refund.
- Payment & Security: Most bookings are charged at purchase. Duplicate charges are investigated and refunded with proof.
- Best Price Guarantee: Agoda will match or refund the difference if you find a lower rate elsewhere (subject to terms).
Always read your booking’s cancellation and refund policy before confirming.
Agoda complaints submitted through Ajust
I booked a Queen Ensuite for 4–7 June 2025 after being told to book now and request a price match later. I sent screenshots showing a lower price but my request was rejected repeatedly with unclear reasons, and customer service kept me waiting over an hour despite having all evidence. It felt misleading and time-wasting, so I won’t book with Agoda again. - B
Annexe Apartments told me they processed a refund of $841.76 back to the virtual credit card used for my booking, but I still see no refund. Every time I contact Agoda I get vague, contradictory updates and no timeline. This delay is causing real financial strain and I need clear confirmation and a date for resolution. - Regina
My pending payment issue has been unresolved for five months despite repeated contacts with Agoda. I have received no meaningful updates or progress reports and feel ignored and stressed about the money tied up. As a loyal customer I expected better communication; I need an immediate update on the status and concrete steps being taken to resolve this. - Leemol
I was overcharged by more than $3,000 AUD by an Agoda partner and when I raised it customer service told me there was no complaints process and I couldn’t speak to a team lead. This unexpected charge is distressing and I want a full refund and a clear escalation path so the issue can be investigated properly. - Fiona
Recent experiences with Agoda customer service
Swift, Helpful Resolution: After being robbed overseas, one customer received an emergency hotel booking funded by credit from a past cancellation.
Slow but Eventual Outcome: A traveller double-charged for a stay exchanged 30+ emails over 10 days. Agoda initially offered credit, but later issued a partial refund minus fees after persistent escalation.
Service Gaps: A family’s New Year’s booking in Vietnam collapsed after conflicting messages from Agoda and the property, leaving them stranded after midnight.

Agoda Contact FAQs
What is the fastest way to reach Agoda customer support for urgent booking issues?
The fastest way to reach Agoda for urgent issues is by calling their 24/7 international or toll-free numbers. Phone support offers real-time assistance, especially during check-in problems. Use live chat or email for follow-ups or when you need a written record of communication.
Why do some Agoda refund requests take so long to process?
Agoda refunds can take up to 10 days after confirmation, but delays occur if hotels or payment providers are slow to verify details. To speed it up, provide full booking details, proof of payment, and remain persistent yet polite when following up.
How can travellers avoid common Agoda booking or billing problems?
Always double-check booking details, save policy copies, and confirm with the hotel directly before travel. This prevents missing reservations, duplicate charges, and refund confusion. Keeping documentation ensures faster resolution if something goes wrong.
What should I do if Agoda customer service doesn’t respond to my complaint?
If Agoda doesn’t reply, try their phone support first, then follow up via email with your booking ID and timeline of contact attempts. Escalate through social media or consumer advocacy platforms like Ajust if your case remains unresolved.
