have been looking at flights for Hawaii. last night we saw one for £732 pp was over £850 to £950.
So took the plunge and booked:cool1: went through booking process all ok did the verified by visa and then screen said to phone up bank:sad2: did this and they said as it was an unusual transaction they stopped it. retry in 10 min and will be ok.
Then get an invoice for netflights with an invoice for transaction but balance to pay is the full amount
checked this mornning and price gone up:scared1:
Son says the invoice is a legally binding contract they have to honour,have to wait until 10am till they open to ring them and pay.
Fingers crossed they we get the price we want.
Also there was insurance for if the airline went bust to get back home, you were unable to uncheck it,so had to pay. thought they couldn't add things to price,as the law changed make them show everything included ie CC/deit card fees ect.will pay then argue the case

Wow that would be frustrating!
We had the same the other night when friends were booking their flights along side us, my friend pressed book and the system shut down, then when she checked her balance in her bank account it was showing as the money taken twice!! :confused3 Apparently they do it twice - for what reason nobody seemed to know and then they refund the one back to you seemed really odd to me but according to the bank United are notorious for it!

Glad you are booked though! How exciting!!
 

glad you got sorted eventually.

I would love to go to Hawaii one day,have a fab time. :cool1:

You'll have a great time, we went to Oahu 5 years ago and had a great time. We'll probably go again some time in the future and stay DVC too.

Hire a car and travel around the island, there are some great secluded beaches to be found.
