yeego.com - story ?

Has anyone here used yeego.com ? I just put through a booking for a hotel in Munich and *then* thought of searching the web because I hadn't heard of them before. The main result I turned up was a discussion on Tripadvisor about whether or not they were legit . . . and it's not terribly clear.

I have to say that on the booking front, receipts, etc . . . everything has gone to plan and the easy test will be to ring the hotel in a few days so I will know quickly enough, but I just thought I would check in with the good folks here in boardsland.

Have used them for hotel bookings, had no problem at all. Try booking.com or Otel.com as well, sometimes they are cheaper....

How did you get on with your booking with Yeego zagmund? I have booked a hotel in Barcelona with Yeego, travelling in a couple of weeks. I emailed the hotel a few days after I made the booking, and they had my reservation, but the price is so much cheaper than all the other booking sites for the same hotel. I'm actually worried that the hotel will try and charge me again when we get there, cos Yeego seems too good to be true!

I have also booked a hotel in New York with them, again, amazing price €60-80 per night cheaper than all the other booking agents.

So are they on the level? Wondering how they can do the hotels so much cheaper than the hotels website and all the other booking agents

Sorry to ressurect a 4 year old thread, but I see there was a question addressed to me some time back and it warrants answering.

I've used yeego a good few times now and I would say that 80% of the time they are cheaper than the other engines. I've never had a problem, through about 7 or 8 bookings over the years.

I booked a couple in the last few weeks which were a good 30% cheaper than the other engines and the hotels own websites. I got the Novotel Zurich Messe for ~€70 when other sites had them at over ~€100, and I got the Park Inn Midi in Brussels for ~€78 when others were over €100 again. You also get 3% back as credit against your next bookings, so that helps.

At one point they allowed me to cancel my 2 day booking at a hotel in Nantes which was going to cost me over €300 for two rooms and rebook for a newer rate they had at about ~€260.

I had my doubts about them originally, but they have always worked for me and I would recommend them. They also have some sort of "private members club" at myprivatetravel.com which claims to offer greater discounts, but I've yet to see anything significant there.

And just to come back with my experience, I did book that hotel in Barcelona in the end, but our trip was cancelled due to the ash cloud. Yeego refunded the money even though it was past the cancellation period. I then booked the hotel in New York with them, it was about a third cheaper than all other sites. Not only was the booking legit, but we also got upgraded to a suite! Should have cost $500 per night and we paid something like $150 - incredible. I then used the rewards bonus from that trip towards a hotel in Krakow last year, again, all went perfectly. They aren't always the cheapest, but when they are cheaper, they seem significantly so. Would highly recommend them.
