Expedia never fully charged me for trip?
Hey guys. I wanted some advice on something.
Me and my boyfriend booked a vacation package to Asia using Expedia. We made the reservation over the phone because we wanted to split the trip between our two cards. So the expedia representative split the cost of our $4,000 dollar trip between our two cards. Here is the issue. My boyfriend was charged $2,000 the next day, but my card has not been charged at all and it’s been over a month since we booked!
Funny thing is, we were sent a receipt saying the entire trip was paid for and it is shown that it was charged all to my boyfriend’s card. (He was really only charged $2000 though!)
We both put our frequent flyer numbers in for United when we booked, and when we log in the website shows that we are ticketed and booked. We both have etickets and a confirmation number for the trip. We also have a confirmation for our hotel from Expedia.
Has something like this ever happened to you? Should I call them and let them know they never fully charged us for the trip? Will I show up to the airport only to find out that I have no ticket? (Even though United shows my E-ticket number?) A little curious on what happened here. I called Expedia and United to confirm the reservation, and they say everything was booked and ready to go haha.
Thoughts?

You can also call your Credit Card company and find out if Expedia tried to charge the $2.000. Then if you want to play safe call Expedia and let them know something went wrong... it most likely will cost you $2.000 but better than finding out you will not be on the trip at the airport.

Definitely follow up. Sooner or later there will be a routine reconciliation which will pick this up. If you are lucky, you get a call and can fix it. If you are unlucky, the ticket is cancelled and you can't get it back. The likelihood that you actually don't have to pay is close to zero.
