Hopper Reviews

I do not recommend this company. Frederic Lalonde is the CEO and Co-Founder of Hopper and they SCAM ON ANOTHER LEVEL!

Do not use this app!!! I booked for a hotel in Connecticut and they put me in New Jersey 3 hours away so I cannot use that motel and they're not going to refund me my money and there's no way to get a hold of customer service I've left several emails they don't answer you back it's a scam and I'm going to report it!!!

I am a single mother who travels for work with my child due to not having any family to help. I have gave this site multiple chances now because of the deals, but 3 x now my reservation was completely messed up. 1ST TIME: hopper glitched and booked my reservation and then cancelled it without any cancelation email. At least I received my money back within an hour.

2nd time they scammed me out of $307.40. I sent them everything they asked for including my bank statements where they clearly took out the money and they could not help me or refund my money due to not able to find my transaction in their system. The bank was not able to refund my money as well due to Hopper not being a fraudulent charge. SO ridiculous. Literally gave them all the proof and information they asked for with no resolution.

3rd time: I'm currently sitting in front of the hotel. They are not allowing me to check in so I contacted Hopper multiple times, through the app and phone and have no response for over 2 hours. No one has called, emailed, or texted me.

I WARN EVERYONE DO NOT USE THIS SITE. THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS AND WILL DO AND SAY EVERYTHING TO NOT GIVE YOU YOUR MONEY BACK.

Company is a scam company that will immediately charge your credit or debit card there extra fees that they refuse to reimburse you account, even if you decide to cancel everything during the initial session. There are no humans to talk with, to ask questions directly. I had to dispute the funds taken from my account, even after Hopper told me that they canceled everything for me. They are a SCAM company.

I was able to book directly with another hotel on my own and save money.

Really bad. The mention one amount and later hotels charge an additional amounts that they have no control off.

Really terrible experience.

I was charged a $5.00 TIP and $25.00 for vip support. Don't book through this site, it states the flight was going to be $230 & I got charged 260$. I canceled it because I was going to dispute with my bank because I was lied to but you will never ever get a human so you cant dispute with anyone...Never again. Expedia is the best. Should have never changed.

This is a fraudulent and scam company!

We look like idiots when we got to the hotel and our rooms was not available, never been booked with Quality Inn. Do not use this Hopper app. You will get scammed and never get your money back! There is no customer service! Fraud Alert!!!

I have done a fair bit of business with Hopper over the last year, and I will never use them again.

The customer service is nonexistent.

Firstly, let me preface my review by stating that if I could give Hopper zero stars, I would.

I used Hopper to research direct flights from LA to Portland and then returning. I have Delta air miles and so specifically looked at Delta flights and only Delta flights. I did find flights that suited my schedule and ‘watched’ them until Hopper informed me they had reached a price I was happy to purchase them for.

When I saved my flights (in order to watch them), I double checked the details so as to be sure I was watching the correct journey. All seemingly fine. Then I go to price freeze… I paid $90 to freeze the advertised price for a week so I could complete the transaction when I had more time. Hopper sent me a confirmation but when I opened the confirmation, not only was the price more expensive than what they’d advertised, they froze a completely different and random return leg - A Spirit flight that left at 6am with a three hour stop over in Vegas. Why?

Firstly, I would never take a 6am flight. Secondly, I would never choose a stop over on such a short flight. Thirdly, I would never fly with Spirit. My point being, I would never, NEVER have even researched that flight so it’s impossible for it to be the option I chose to price freeze!

This leads me to my second point… Customer service is nonexistent. You literally can’t get through to a human. Miraculously though, a few minutes after I Tweeted about my experience, I got an email. Curious… Anyway, a long story short: Hopper’s condescending customer support agent simply told me it was my mistake and there was nothing they could do about it, I should have checked the details of the price freeze before agreeing to it.

Yes, In hindsight this would have been the right thing to do. But in my defense, because I was only ever following one specific route, I naively assumed that that would be the route I was paying for. BEWARE: I suspect this is a scam. Hopper is a company lacking integrity and seems to be making money from unsuspecting customers. My guess is that the money comes from the un refundable fee you pay for flights you’re never going to purchase because the details are wrong.

Do not deal with a company that participates in false advertising! Paid $25 fee to freeze my flight at $512. When I went to book it the site tried to charge me $1,700.

After numerous emails requesting more than a standard computerized response and reporting them to kayak I finally received an email from an employee.

Took several emails to finally have someone call me. Their first excuse was the flight was full which was false as I was able to book it for $636. Next they said they didn’t have my flight in contract with them at the time - then don’t sell me an insurance policy you can’t stand by!

After several hours of back and forth they only gave me my $25 fee back so I’m out an extra $124 False advertising at its best! I would not use this company since they don’t have fine print so to speak in their website yet pull it out of the woodwork when you finally reach them!

Hopper changed the policy of the "Freeze" so instead of the amount you spent to freeze the flight going towards your flight, it's just an additional fee for them to keep! So you'll pay the freeze amount on top of the flight price.

They didn't notify customers of this policy change. This isn't convenient for people at all. Literally no point of using this app. You're better off with Kayak or booking directly with the airline.

My flight was $227 each so I paid $452.96 and an additional $176 smh. NEVER AGAIN!

So I make a hotel “freeze” w Hopper & pay their fees. A few days before their pay deadline, I go to pay their discounted price. Room not available.

Refunded my fees as credits (no money back) and told (3-day email exchange) it was their error and to re-make the reservation and pay. I do.

Their site changed my dates, and I only get 1 of 2 needed nights. So I repeat process for 2nd nite and call hotel and confirm the 2-nite reservation.

We arrive and have to pay full price for 1st night because only 2nd night is paid-and Hopper used Expedia for 1 night and Hotels.com for other…so why the hell did I stress with Hopper, install their App, emails & calls?!? Never again!

I cancelled a trip to Florida and trying to get my credit back. The airline was Allegiant, so I called them and they sent the credit to Hopper. Hopper is stalling and claims they have a team on this to issue credit. They asked for my Pay Pal information but nothing has been credited thus far.

Allegiant said their prices are the same as Hoppers so never go through a 3rd party. Especially if you have issues, You can not call anyone direct at Hopper and they stop communicating with you via email. You can't even escalate your issue with a manager. I will never use this site again.

Consumers, we are power in numbers and I have a lot of followers, Reach out via FACEBOOK, Instagram, Twitter and share your experience on these social media platforms. Eventually there will not be a Hopper any longer!

Do not give this company any of your personal information. Somehow they got my credit card information and booked a $200 flight on my card. I tried to call the number linked to the flight through Hopper, and the recording said this number is nonexistent.

Do not use this company. This is a scam, and they are THIEVES. I am battling my credit card company to get my $200 back. I only give them a one star because I have to in order to post this.

WARNING, SCAM. This company does not provide ANY customer service and does not provide "free" seating. It's literally false advertisement and I have reported them to justice.gov for fraud.

Hopper is a scam!! Worse, it is operating its scams through false and deceptive advertising. Do not use this app!!!

I booked a flight on united through hopper and paid $68 to freeze the price. When I attempted just now to complete booking and pay the balance 5 days in advance, hopper's price increased by several hundred dollars over the initial price freeze. Hopper required additional payment to book the flight, while stating they were still saving me $100.

While in a chat with a hopper representative, I booked the flight from united, at the original price. There was no "Price increase" that hopper was claiming. Fraud, extortion, false and deceptive advertising all at the same time. Yes, of course I will be reporting these abuses for state and federal investigations.

Hopper customer service is non-existent. It's been a month and still waiting for the refund after the flight booked change the layover from a couple of hours to 17 hours. It's easier to go straight to the airline. Do not use the Hopper app.

I am a repeat customer. I bought flights via Hopper because of their "Buy Now" recommendation which I thought was trustworthy, along with their "Price Drop" guarantee.

When the price dropped a mere day after purchase by 40% - I expected Hopper to take responsibility. They offered me $20 back! Insulting.

At this point, even if I cancel the flight, paying a cancellation fee, buying the same again elsewhere, I still will be saving money!

I thought Hopper were a different kind of company. I feel very mislead and will not be making any purchase from them ever again.

My wife was on a travel nurse assignment in California. Her contracts are month to month and can be terminated at a moments notice. She needed a car so I went to Hopper for the first time. I entered that the car rental would be from January 1 to January 31, 2022 and found a Toyota Corolla for $850.00 for the month. I saw on my credit card a charge for $850.00 but I thought this was just a hold for the month for that amount.

She picked up the car at Sacramento airport on January 1, 2022 but her contract was terminated on January 3, 2022 and she returned the car on the 3rd and flew back home. Thrifty car rental charged our credit card $83.29 for the car rental. I have contacted Hopper several times through emails (because they refuse to give a phone number) and they say "It is up to the rental partner (Thrifty) to give permission to refund the $850.00".

Thrifty charged my card for the rental for a total $83.29 and Thrifty is done with the car rental. It is up to Hopper to refund the money but they refuse to and keep claiming it is Thrifty fault. Hopper is a scam and is holding a full month charge for $850.00 for a three day rental!

Be careful. If it is too good to be true then it is! Hopper has terrible business practices and won't even talk to you!

I had a job interview with company then was told I had the job then was told to send my personal info to a non secured personal email. Then I was told to send my picture for verification process. This is not my first time doing a work at home job and I am very familiar how the process is suppose to go for work at home. The suppose recruiter name was Kelvin Johnson so please be aware it should always be a secured link sent to process personal info for a job.

This really makes you mad when you have people going hungry and losing their households. Job for Hopper INC. using the dish symbol which made me think it was possibly legit until I was told to download a app called Wire which made it suspicious but it became really clear to be a scam when I was told to send my personal info to a personal gmail account.
