Rocketmiles

None of my Amazon gift cards have been delivered to me after 4 months.

Used RocketMiles to get Amazon giftcards and never got sent anything. Plus customer support is no help at all. Do not use this app!

Booked first trip with them. Zero issues. Miles were awarded like two days after I checked out of the hotel. Customer service answered questions I had about my hotel stay. Will book again The app is extremely buggy. Failed log in. Failed connections and searches. Needs to be updated and fixed. Use the website

Site keeps crashing. Also says that “rates are no longer available” 30 Seconds after my search. Then, when I refresh my search, the rate that supposedly wasn’t available anymore is still Shown. Feels like a boat-and-switch.

It works

Fast enough functionality which is convenient vs a desktop login, but a few annoying flaws: app constantly requires signing in again aka doesn't remain logged in after closing app; after viewing a property, pressing back to results page often requires an entire reload which is slow and annoying; the sliders on the filters screen are HORRIBLE and make the frame's page scroll around instead - fix the sensitivity

I use Rocketmiles all the time, find them to be easy to use, and very fair priced with the additional bonus of miles which enables me to travel even more !

Overall, it’s a good app and is my go-to site when I’m traveling and you do earn a chunk of miles on each visit; 1000 miles per night is easy to get, so your miles swiftly add up. Several improvements are needed though. 1) There’s no way to leave a review of the hotel! You can READ the booking.com reviews but can’t leave a review on Rocketmiles or on booking.com! 2) USUALLY, the Rocketmiles fees are OKAY, (usually c$10) but sometimes the fees can be more than 15%, and, in one case, more than 50%! Advertising the ACTUAL price rather than adding the Rocketmiles fees later would be an improvement! 3) Too often the app logs me out and I have to log back in! 4) The room description is often woefully inadequate! Most descriptions of the hotel’s talk of “select rooms having air conditioning”. Why not copy the description from the hotel website?! 5) Charges for parking and resort fees are not specified, which can have a major impact on price; I had a hotel that charged $50 per night for parking! I know that prices change but that COULD be made clear.

It’s all fine until you need to reach out to customer service. They are not capable of solving basic problems while you are traveling which clearly is very inconvenient as I ended having to pay for another hotel even though I had already prepaid my hotel with Rocketmiles.

Plan on spending the time to send a half dozen follow up emails after you complete the stay to get your measly 3,000 miles. Really not worth the hassle.
