I have statements / proof from two sources, both come from hotels, that baliwww.com offer unauthorized and unsustainable rates in order to do "bait and switch".
That is, they offer rates for hotels on the Internet they can not honour to get enquiries. They then say those rooms are fully booked and try to upsell to more expensive rooms / hotels. Offering unauthorized rates for this purpose is, of course, fraud.
I recommend anyone else who finds baliwww offering very low rates and then trying to switch them to another room or hotel, contact Fugly Bali who have said they will then contact the hotel to see if a) the rate is authorized, b) if they are fully booked for that room type as baliwww have stated.
