### "Greedy thieves" — 1.0/5

> **Ken** | *22 April 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Nothing . But thieves who cant be honest when contacted they get all fustrated and end conversation
> 
> **Cons**: Surprise payments when no one sent an email.  When contacted and called out they get upset and end the chat
> 
> Bookipi is nothing but bunch of…
Bookipi is nothing but bunch of thieves.
They are trying to charge me for their app I have been using for free for years and then stating from their chat ot that it is going to start in September.
Then when I tell them so why do I have to pay now and not on September they don't answer.
I will expose you to the entire world for being thieves . You should value your customers and treat them right.
Don't bring up surprise bills to your clients . At least have the decency to send an email stating the new changes not when you open the app.
Very disappointed. I'd rather use an app that charges me to begin with .
Shame on you Bookipi
