Is there anyway to get $ back from a priceline reservation?

[eeyoresmom]

I have used PL in the past and will use them again,I have never had a bad experience.To make a loooooooong story short,I have a resrevation for a full size car for our June 16-23 trip that I can't use.I know it is completely non-refundable,just wondering if there's any way to recoup some of the $?????TIA

Not that I am aware of. In rare instances of an illness or death in the family I have heard of people calling Priceline and begging for refunds, some with success, some without...but not in cases of nonemergent plan changes.

I was refunded two nights out of four when a Phoenix hotel bumped me because they were full to another hotel across the street. Basically, it was a lower star quality than I'd booked. Also got bumped from a hotel to a REEEAALLLY crappy hotel in Chicago, but the ORIGINAL HOTEL comped me on that one (holes in the wall AND in the towels). Both times it was the HOTEL's fault, however...NOT mine, so Priceline did help me out. Still, I won't use them again for hotels.
