We were in communication with this company months before our trip. Monies were arranged to be sent by all the individuals that were taking the trip. Long story short, we sent a deposit over night, certified, signature required and they were not in the office when it was delivered so she assumed that we hadn't sent it. The day before we were to leave on our trip the representative called to let us know that she cancelled the home with the owner because she claims she didn't get the money. We were able to locate another property and they allowed us to being the cash and pay upon our arrival. She even called the owner of the house we were staying in to tell him that we were supposed to be across the street from him but failed to tell him that she had gotten our deposit and still cancelled. He wasn't concerned we were good tenants and that is what mattered to him.

After our return home I contacted them via phone and emial to ask for our deposit back. I was told that they would not be returning due to the lateness of it being received and all the emails and phone calls she had placed. Most, if not all, cell phones have unlimted minutes or in their case, she called from her personal cell phone which is not our problem. The company pays for email regardless of payments received from clients, so I couldn't understand her justification for not wanting to give us back our money. Her final email to us was that we made he look bad to the owner of the other house and she didn't appreciate it so we wouldn't be getting our money back. I then stated to her that she was a thief and we would see her in court. We have now filed a small claims case against the company here in California. Let's see how she likes that.

False Report

AUTHOR: Java Reservations - (United States of America)

POSTED: Wednesday, December 02, 2009

I was quite surprised to find this complaint. 

This person indicated the deposit was not received by us because our office was closed when a delivery was attempted - OK, if that is the case then how could we owe them a refund - she claims we did not get the deposit.

We have very simple deposit or full payment requirements (as stated on our web site)

What are JAVAs payment requirements?

Once you have selected your property and are ready to confirm, a one-third deposit is required within 7 days. The balance of payment is due 60 days prior to your arrival at the villa.

For Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years reservations, the deposit amount is 50% with final payments due 90 days prior. Some owners will allow 45 days prior for final payment for Thanksgiving, so this will depend on the villa that you choose.

Payments should be by personal check, cashiers check or official bank check (sorry no credit cards or money orders please!).

If we do not receive a deposit or final payment every effort is made to contact the client in plenty of time so they do not loose their reservation. 

If whom ever posted this complaint feels they are due a refund they should contact me ASAP - We have been in the rental market for over 25 years and make every effort to protect and insure that our clients have a wonderful trouble free vacation.

Any further concerns regarding this complaint should feel free to contact me directly.

Best Regards
