R2 830 was taken off my FNB debt card on Tuesday 26 April 2022. I have not made any bookings with them. I have not received any confirmation emails from them. When going into their website. They say my email address wrong. And can''t reply to any other requests
Hi, PayBridge is an online payment gateway owned by NightsBridge. NightsBridge works with guest houses and B&Bs in South Africa to help managing their bookings and payments online.
The reference ‘paybridge accommodation’ will show on your statement if your card has been used to book accommodation online at a property (guest house, bed & breakfast…etc) that uses the NightsBridge payment gateway PayBridge to process online payments. In my case it was a legitimate payment, I just wasn’t aware that it would show up with that reference. I contacted the guest house and they also confirmed it. I was able to find out more here: https://site.nightsbridge.com/features/payment-systems/
I was using booking.com to reserve rooms in South Africa when Paybridge Accomodation popped up on my credit card. Before long, I had several of these. Even though the option on Booking.com said "No Pre-payment" or "Free-Cancellation", it didn't matter. I still got dinged. I tried canceling, but the money wasn't refunded as of yet. It appears that I might eat the costs. And worse, I can't seem to link the charges to which hotel submitted it. How do we know which hotel did what and how much? What would prevent them from charging you twice? After e-mailing a dozen hotels, they seem to put the blame on booking.com. The hotels think that there is a connection between Paybridge Accomodation, Nightbridge, and booking.com. Yes, this is gangster territory. VERY SUSPICIOUS.
In my card statement for the Lufthansa Mies & More card from 07/28/2023 contains an item that I cannot allocate.It relates to an amount of ZAR 4,394.50. Can you help me to clarify the amount? Which hotel does it concern? Thank you Christine Unger-Schedler
On 19 of September 2023 my money is taken R3487.12 from my account and I never book this place .. so what can I do I'm very angry
I had a booking with free cancellation on booking.com The amount of R2960 was taken from my credit card on 16/5/2023. I cancelled in June but am battling to get a refund. I have contacted the guest house but they say the money is held by Booking.com. I then contacted Booking.com and they say that my bank statement should either show Booking.com or the name of the guest house not Paybridge. It seems like I am going to lose my money. This reflects badly on Booking.com and will discourage me from using them again.
Currently on vacation in South Africa. Transaction amount of €670 which was not authorized by me - only company to hold my credit card details are Booking.com Contacted Booking, Agent was not helpful at all as there is no known booking code & had no idea what to do! All accommodation fully paid yet she insisted it’s a hold amount!!!
I Made a booking with booking.com and choose the option to pay at the accommodation, however money has been deducted from my credit card, why is this paybridge deducting money? this is fraudulent booking.com needs to account to this, i feel robbed and my holiday hasn't begun.
avoid making reservations for South Africa on booking.com !!! Paybridge will CHARGE ON THE Day you make reservation in spite of website saying it will be a day before arrival. Even worse, when you cancel on free cancellation bookings on booking.com THEY NEVER refund the money until you go through you bank and dispute the charge, so basically 2-3 hours of work to try to get your money back which usually takes 2-3 months! so basically they get your money and "use" your money for interest on bank and they don't refund until bank gets money back from them. In the meantime they have used hundreds of thousands of dollars from customers! what a scam! Booking.com is not doing anything about it!
Stayed in Thabazimbi at Hardekool Guest House for ZAR1200 and PayBridge Accommodation SA text me abou outstanding amount of ZAR a few days later - which had a payment link - paid again.... ANZ will block the second payment after detail report....
