Way.com forces you to use their app to park in their airport lots. Then they subscribe you to WAY+ which charges you $1.95 monthly without any confirmation. I just realized I've been being charged montly since February. I did not consent to this. This is a scam. I unsubscribed and a message came up saying it auto renews in 27 days. Again, this is a scam.Business Response

Hello *******,
We understand your concerns regarding the WAY+ subscription charges and apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. It appears that during your reservation checkout in February, the option to opt out of the Way+ Subscription was not deselected, resulting in the monthly charges. We are committed to transparency and customer satisfaction, and would like to resolve this issue promptly. Please contact our customer service team to discuss a refund for the charges incurred without your explicit consent.

I am rejecting this response because: if Way were actually interested in transparency the "opt out" would be highly visible (transparent). Also, if Way were interested in customer satisfaction, a contact email/ phone number to customer service would have been provided within this response. Please note i am not the first to complain about this. I am rejecting this lazy canned corporate response.

Hi *******,
It appears that three reservations were booked simultaneously on the same date. Two were confirmed concurrently, while the third was secured shortly after, about 20 minutes later. The reservation you're referring to was indeed canceled prior to the check-in time and subsequently disputed. The confirmation number provided corresponds to this canceled and disputed booking. However, the reservation made 20 minutes later remained active. Kindly refer to the attached screenshot for verification.

Stay away from the fly by night ******/scammers. You'll waste your time, be late for your flight, and lose the money you spent on their platform. Booked a 3 week reservation, and the parking attendant told me they don't have space for my size vehicle (standard SUV- kia *********** Called and emailed WAY for a refund. They asked for proof I didn't park there. I told them I parked in the street nearby because I was late for the airport. They asked for my **** receipt and I provided it ( to prove I didn't use the parking lot shuttle). I also provided a screenshot of my *** gps to show it was parked down the street from the parking lot. My *** app also lets me take remote pictures from the vehicle's multiple cameras. I did that to show it was really parked in the street and not a parking lot.**** from customer service politely told me that they are not issuing a refund for my $336.

I reserved long-term offsite parking at a hotel parking lot near the ******************** using their website. When I arrived, I was told that "Way" told them that they had overbooked their parking lot, and I would not be able to park there..The hotel was told that Way contacted their customers to inform them of that, but that was not true. In a scramble to find parking so that I did not miss my flight, I called Way customer service. They couldn't find something in close proximity to the airport with such last minuteness of it. They told me to just find a parking lot...and to save the receipt and I would be reimbursed. We I got back from my trip, I sent them the receipt for parking at ******** long term offsite parking lot for $248.00 Way then told me that they would NOT reimburse me for that parking and would only refund me what I paid to WAY, which was $141.00 I told them that this was all i could find last minute and that their *** told me that i would be refunded fully both over the phone and email. They responded by telling me that there policy is only to refund what was paid.I want them to pay the difference of $107.00Business Response

Way.com is a platform we used to book parking near the ***************. After we returned we noticed we were being charged $1.95 every month for a subscription we never authorized. Apparently we were automatically enrolled in a subscription and charged every month with no benefit. You cant cancel unless you call them and spend a lot of time on the phone. Imagine how many people use this website for parking and how many people miss seeing the small charge every month on their credit card statement. What a scam.Business Response

I made a reservation with way.com and my car was towed on 7/21 despite a paid reservation. Way.com was at fault and didnt include my license plate in the email sent to the parking lot. They would not reimburse me $285 for the tow expense despite my reservation date/time and license plate clearly being on the reservation and claimed that I didnt enter the license plate. They only reimbursed me for the cost of the reservation but not the tow. I want to be paid for the expense of the tow. Note- in the photo of my reservation it says order cancelled which was after I got towed and they refunded me for just the reservation cost.Business Response

On 7/7/2024 I entered the lot at 6:15 pm. I saw a sign for Way and proceeded to reserve the spot. Upon reserving the confirmation provided stated that I needed a printout of the reservation to be placed on the dash in order to avoid being ticketed or towed. Due to the fact I was already on site in my vehicle that was impossible. A that time I called Way to explain the situation and cancel. They refused and I was told to call back the next day to speak with management. Due to this I was forced to pay the lot directly on site (It was actually $4 cheaper) to be able to park my car. The following day and on three other occasions I spoke with Way regarding a refund and was told I would be called back each time. No call, follow up or refund was ever provided.Business Response

Hello ****,
We acknowledge the inconvenience you've experienced. Upon reviewing your conversation, it appears there was a misunderstanding regarding the printing of your reservation. It was noted that the reservation was made in error. However, had the difficulty with printing been communicated, our representative would have suggested manually noting the confirmation details and placing them on your vehicle's dashboard. We trust this explanation resolves any confusion.

Complaint: 22087023
I am rejecting this response because: I immediately contacted your customer service to address this matter. They could provide no assurance that a written document displayed in the car would prevent being ticket or towed. The space was not used. The lot was paid directly for another spot that was used. Over the course of attempting to resolve this your customer service made several conflicting statements regarding this matter. Due to lack of adequate response or resolution I felt a report to the BBB was necessary.

Hi ****,
We apologize for any confusion our previous response may have caused. It seems there was a misunderstanding; during your call with our customer service, you state you were instructed to contact a supervisor for further assistance. Upon reviewing the call records, it was noted that the reservation you made was in error, but there was no mention of difficulties in printing the reservation. At that point our customer service agent would have informed you to simply write the confirmation number on a piece of paper. Please understand that our agents are there to assist you and if they are unable to they will transfer you to a supervisor not ask you to call back.

I am rejecting this response because: I called numerous times and was told a supervisor would be contacting me. That never happened. The option to hand write the confirmation was given but the phone agent could give no assurance that my vehicle would not be ticketed or towed. From the very beginning at the exact time of this matter I have requested a refund due to the fact the space was not used. My experience with your customer service was poor and I was never followed up with. Please do the right thing and provide a refund for a service that was not rendered.

****,
We understand your frustration and the inconvenience you've experienced. After reviewing the details, it appears that our agent followed the established procedures. As per our terms and conditions, full refunds are issued before check-in, and since the call was made after check-in, the reservation remained valid and could have been utilized. We strive to provide clear guidance to prevent such situations, and we regret that this was not effectively communicated in your case. While we cannot offer a refund post check-in, we are committed to improving our service to ensure better experiences in the future.

On July 31, I made a booking for parking on way.com. For some reason, the booking was duplicated. When I cancelled the duplicate order, there was no option for me to receive my money back. Instead, I was given "way bucks," which I assume is credit that can be used for future purchases. This is unacceptable because I do not plan on using way.com in the future. I intend to dispute this duplicate charge on my credit card.Business Response

Hi *****,
Thank you for contacting us. We provide Waybucks as a refund option to streamline the process for customers who prefer to cancel their reservation and immediately rebook at a different location, without the typical 3-5 business day wait for a monetary refund. This credit can be used instantly to secure a new booking. If you prefer a refund to your original payment method, simply give us a call, and we'll arrange it for you. Upon reviewing your reservation, I noticed that you have already utilized $30.31 of your Waybucks for your upcoming November reservation.

Pick up & Drop was on June 23rd and June 29, ********************************************** very poor service and damaged my car.

I have reached out to them multiple times but each time they are communicating back that they will post my feedback only after their team reviews. As a consumer who has a bad experience, should not take this much time to post my reviews.
