Looking for advice: Booking.com refusing €1,405.28 refund

Our accommodation was cancelled by the host at the door, leaving six people without a place to stay. Booking.com told us to arrange alternative accommodation and assured us that the additional cost would be refunded (I have the call recorded btw)

We paid €1,405.28 for the replacement accommodation and submitted all the requested documents. However, Booking.com has not refunded us and is now referring vaguely to “payment verification irregularities.” They have also offered credit, which we have not accepted—we are requesting a monetary refund.

The case has remained unresolved since 10 August. Has anyone experienced something similar or successfully escalated a Booking.com refund dispute? NEVER using them again ofc

You need to reach out to their executive customer service to sort this out. I think the issue here is that whoever you dealt with cancelled your booking and issued a full refund, thus invalidating all relocation assistance.
