A Booking.com unfair pricing claim could be coming to the UK. Register your interest and if it does, you’ll be the first to know.
No-win, no-fee
Overview
Two Dutch consumer organisations have launched a legal claim against Booking.com, accusing the platform of inflating hotel prices for over a decade.
Their research suggests that since January 2013, Booking.com has stopped hotels from offering cheaper prices on their own websites or through rival booking platforms. This kind of restriction – known as a price parity clause – limits competition and could mean you paid more than you should have.
Lawyers also believe Booking.com misleads travellers with fake discounts, incomplete prices and made-up scarcity.
While the case is being brought in the Netherlands, the impact could be far-reaching. If Booking.com is found liable, other platforms may face scrutiny and similar legal action could follow here at home. If a claim is launched in the UK, you could be entitled to compensation.
We’re monitoring the case closely. Think you may have been affected? Check your eligibility, register your interest, and we’ll let you know if a UK claim is launched.
