I clearly see the rate and can book it online, but they can only see where rooms are available but cannot be booked online. This started yesterday (spoke on the phone) and they denied BRG after trying and trying. I called back today and they said the 24 hours had expired. Luckily the rate is still available so I cancelled original and rebooked. However, on the phone they are STILL not able to replicate rate. Does anyone have suggestions?
How are you seeing the lower rate? Are you clicking through a search engine, for example kayak.com? Open a fresh browser, go to easyclicktravel and find out if you can see the lower rate. That's what the agents are trained to do. Sometimes I have had success goading the agent to go through kayak, but it's YMMV
