Expedia charges you the moment you book, twice. Then a week later you MAY get refunded without customer support. Booking dies not charge until you check in and no problems with modifications or refunds, no double charge on the cc.
@@antiguacapilla ohhh No way, Booking they have deals! And the points system is great, you get a free stay every few stays. By the end of our month long trip we were paying $19 a night. Seriously I am a retired traveler and this is right from my app, sometimes I cant believe how cheap the rooms are.

Is there ever a good reason to spend more and use Expedia to book your room? We would like to know.
Direct booking is much more expensive

Wont call it a scam or hack, Expedia doesn't guarantee the lowest price. Direct or indirect you should compare precise.
