Travel Worm doesn't sound like a very appealing way to book a trip - from the get-go - does it?
As it turns out, these "worms" in the travel industry are just that, spineless rip-off artists.
If a tourist conducts a search at their web site for reasonably-priced rooms in a comfortable setting - like Expedia and Orbitz offer - Travel worm displays a page on their web site with comparision pricing.
Unfortunately, there's one major hitch!
In a deceitful underhanded effort to land the a booking, Travel Worm willfully fails to disclose all pertienent fees and rates in order to secure a business edge over the competition.
For example, the disreputable Internet entity will post a low-ball cost for a room, but conceal the fact there may be additional service fees, taxes, and resort costs.
Bottom line?
When the dust settles at check-out - and the charges are rung up - it becomes evident it would have been cheaper and wiser to have booked with the competition.
And, in some instances, Travel Worm engages in criminal activity.
For example, when a guest is inputting the information for their credit card, the company must confirm the total of the charges so that the individual may make an educated informed decision about whether to accept the terms and conditions (and total costs posted).
Travel Worm's continued practice of billing more to the credit card - than agreed to at the time the confirmation icon was clicked - amounts to fraud, mispresentation, and embezzlement of funds.
I am a witness to these facts since Travel Worm ripped me off today for the sum of $32.00.
Consumer alert!
Book at Travel Worm at your own risk.
