Hey guys,

Am a newbie to this site and i was hoping you could help me.

I have never uses priceline but i want to for my upcoming stay in australia/new zealand and thailand.

My question is, can i use the asain site to book hotels? Or must i use the UK site?

I will use an english barclaycard to pay which has a uk billing address.

Also, an upcoming trip to the US means i have to get a hotel there aswell. Can i use the Us site at all???

I am sick of being overcharged by Expedia so i'd like to give this priceline lark a go! :)

Cheers, Chris

Since you have a UK credit card I would just use the UK site. If you book through the US or HK sites you will end up being charged in US$ or HK$, which means it's really hard to tell how much you're paying for until your credit card statement comes back because the exchange rates (and associated service fees) on foreign currency transactions can be so erratic. As far as I can tell the different local sites are really all the same - just operate on different languages / base currency.
