I find their practices ridiculous, when you reserve a room and guarantee it with a credit card, you’re supposed to get a room. That’s why it’s called a guarantee. Yeego on top is the party charging customers, so that makes it a transaction.

I can only recommend all of you NOT to book with Yeego. There are 100’s of websites that are much better and that actually respect their customers.

(booking.com, expedia.com, travelocity.com, venere.com, hotel.de are just some examples of great sites for your hotel reservations).

Cheers,

Remko

The only downside is, as they have to confirm the availability of rooms most times, you might end up asking for hotel after hotel only to find out no-one has the required rooms. Lately they have suggested a "pre-confirmed" alternative too, so they seem to be working on the problem.</p> Cheap prices, fast customer service, great site.
