Homing is a fraud. I write this with a full responsibility. The day after booking, six month before my arrival date, Homing charged me a deposit of half of the total amount. Five month later, the fina... See more

Terrible company! Stay away!

"DEPLORABLE BEHAVIOR"
There is a debt charge to the company Homing Short Rents in our favor in the amount of 2,373.25 and although it has already been notified in court on 03/22/2024, they have not yet paid what is owed. They received our income and kept it!!!! Dishonest people! Pr. the 07.04.24, they have still not payed us!.

All the negative reviews are 100%…!!!

All the negative reviews are 100% correct. We lost our money which is 6 nights and paid for a hell hole. We stayed 10 minutes and left for a hotel. The apartment was falsely advertised, the TV did not work, the internet was poor, three flights of stairs and no lift ( if we knew this why book the dump). I could say more. Sadly the Homing company could not give care less. A take the money cash in approach and screw the customer. The dump we were conned in booking was Largo do Rato 7 A/B 1250-186 Lisboa. It even has a sex shop on the ground floor fortunately we had no children with us. Shameful there is no justice for us who work hard to take a holiday.

Unbelievable

Unbelievable. Rented an apartment in Madeira for 6 nights. Appartement is simple but ok. Did not sleep for a night because of super old matras that is sagging. Next to that the sheets smelled sour plus the appartement is dirty (dust everywhere). But ok I am not a person that likes to complain. But the matras was that bad that i wake up totally broken with pain in the back so I asked to do something about the matras. Letterly zero cooperation from the company. So then I asked for refund do I can rent another place. Also not possible… so basically I needed to sleep on a matras that is probably found on a garbage area totally sagged. In the end I booked a new place. Discussion with this maffia/scam company still going on. Unbelievable from my point of view…

No recommendation for homing.com.pt

No recommendation for homing.com.pt. Accommodation features where not as described, e.g. hairdryer not working, toaster not available, no towels service, .. All of it could have been tolerable and manageable but no reply from the agency about my items. Bad behaviour. And 4 weeks after my departure still no refund of my deposit 👎

BEWARE

BEWARE! I booked 4 weeks ago via Expedia. The room advert said 50% to be paid for reservation. But, after I booked - Homing took 100% of the booking fee from my bank account. Because I found a better rental elsewhere, I then decided to cancel my booking. I was told 100% of my money would be returned within 7/10 days with no fee. But, 4 weeks later and after chasing many times I still didn't get my money back. I had to travel to the office in Lisbon to complain face to face. They told me they were only allowed to process so many refunds per day. So,
it's very clear to me - that my money was being used to pay for their business overheads instead of them asking the for an overdraft facility / loan from the bank. This was why I had to wait 4 weeks to get my own money back! Unfortunately, I will never use Expedia or Homing again!

Never deal with Homing.

Never deal with Homing.
First, they will show you beautiful pictures but when you will see the property you'll be shocked! Dirty kitchen and bathroom, broken floor, broken furniture, and walls with mold!
Then they will lie you that they have parking but they don't! They will tell you to park elsewhere and promise to refund you parking fees, but they lie again! It's a scam. They owe me parking fees for 2 month and never give them back. I needed to go to police to resolve this case and still didn't get my money back. Shame on you Homing!ting experience ever!

The company did not supply towels and bed linen on a weekly as per the contract . They had to be constantly reminded . The service was terrible I would not recommend them to anyone. I am surprised any owners put their properties in their hands .

These people are crooks

These people are crooks . They do not respond when you have a question. Even after I canceled my reservation after not being able to get a response they still took my money a one and half months later. They knew full well I had canceled as I sent my cancellation and reason to everyone of their emails and WhatsApp .

Short term apartment with big water leak!!!

I had a major problem with a rented apartment in Lisbon with Homing through Home to go.
My 82 years old mother and her 86 years old sister went together to Lisbon to celebrate their birthday.
The apartment had a major water leak on the living room and bathroom. They asked to change apartment and they said they didn't have another one (!!). So, with no option, they decided to stay and receive a half refund.
Now, when they still had one more week Homing rented the apartment above! Which made the water leak much worse! Impossible to stay any longer!
So, I had to move them to a hotel! No respect at all!
