FINAL URGENT ESCALATION: Payment required to prevent suspension of Booking.com guests

Dear Booking.com Partner Support,

I am writing to formally escalate the ongoing failure to pay funds owed to Kruger Allo Bed and Breakfast.

The outstanding amount is currently R16,000. A further payout is due tomorrow, which will increase the total outstanding amount to approximately R30,000 if payment is not processed.

For approximately six years, our payouts have followed a consistent pattern: reservations for guests checking out up to and including Wednesday morning are included in the payout processed on Thursday, with the funds normally reaching our account on Friday.

This established payment cycle has now been missed. Despite contacting Booking.com repeatedly by telephone and email, we have not received a satisfactory explanation, a resolution, or traceable proof that payment has been processed.

Our bank’s Forex Department has confirmed that no incoming payment is currently visible on its system. If Booking.com maintains that payment has been made or initiated, please provide the following immediately:

The exact payment date

The amount processed

The payment or transaction reference

The banking or remittance reference

The expected settlement date

Proof of payment sufficient for our bank to trace the funds

Being instructed to wait another 10 days before the matter can be properly investigated is unacceptable. Booking.com continues to accept reservations and collect payments from guests for accommodation supplied by our business, while the corresponding funds due to us remain unpaid.

This situation has now reached a critical point. If the outstanding funds have not been settled and reflected in our bank account by the end of today, or no later than the beginning of tomorrow, we will have no alternative but to take emergency operational measures.

These measures will include suspending the acceptance of further Booking.com reservations and stopping the admission of guests arriving through Booking.com until the outstanding payments have been settled. Booking.com will then need to take responsibility for assisting, relocating and communicating with any affected guests.

This is not a step we wish to take. However, we cannot continue providing accommodation and incurring operating costs when Booking.com has collected payment for our services but has not transferred the corresponding funds to us.

Kruger Allo Bed and Breakfast has accommodated approximately 19,000 guests over more than eight years. We remain responsible for paying our staff, suppliers and operating expenses, and we cannot continue supplying services indefinitely without receiving the money owed to our business.

Please escalate this matter immediately to the relevant Payments, Finance and senior Partner Support teams. We require:

Written confirmation of the total amount currently owed

Traceable proof of any payment already initiated

A clear explanation for the missed payout

A confirmed date and time by which the full outstanding balance will reach our account

Please treat this as an urgent final notice. We require a substantive written response—not a standard acknowledgement—by the end of today.

⚠️ URGENT SCAM WARNING FOR GUEST HOUSES, LODGES & ACCOMMODATION PROVIDERS ⚠️

Please be extremely careful when receiving bookings from new guests.

Scammers may claim that they have paid a deposit and send you a “proof of payment” together with a link or app notification that supposedly requires you to “accept” or “authorise” the payment.

DO NOT CLICK OR APPROVE ANYTHING WITHOUT READING IT CAREFULLY.

The authorisation may actually be asking you to transfer money from your bank account into the scammer’s account—not to receive their payment.

Remember:

• A screenshot is not proof that payment has cleared.
• Confirm every deposit directly in your own banking app or bank account.
• Never use a link sent by the person making the booking.
• Never approve a transaction to receive a payment.
• If anything seems suspicious, contact your bank immediately using its official number.

Please share this warning with guest houses, lodges, hotels, B&Bs and anyone who accepts bookings. These scammers are actively targeting businesses—stay alert and protect your accounts.

Today, we had to say goodbye to our precious Tyson.
He was ten years old, but still so full of life—running around, excited about everything and bringing his beautiful energy into every part of our day.
All we had to say was, “Monkeys!”
In that instant, Tyson forgot his age. He would sprint off excitedly to find them, full of curiosity, mischief and life.
That was our Tyson—our firebrand, forever young at heart.
It is difficult to explain the emptiness left behind when you lose a dog who was never “just a dog.” Tyson was our family. He was one of our children and part of the rhythm of our home.
You go to feed the dogs and instinctively call his name—then remember that he is no longer there.
You go for a walk and turn around, expecting him to be following behind you—but he isn’t.
That is the part people do not always understand. It is not only the loss of his presence; it is the missing piece in all the small, ordinary moments where his love once lived.
We are incredibly grateful to Dr Kaylee and everyone at Van Wijk Street Vet for the extraordinary compassion and support they showed us today. Dr Kaylee was beyond amazing. She treated Tyson—and us—with such gentleness, patience and dignity during an unbearably difficult time.
They gave us the most precious keepsakes: a sympathy card bearing Tyson’s paw print and nose print, and a tiny bottle containing a little piece of fur from his tail. These thoughtful gestures may seem small, but to a grieving family, they mean more than words can express. We will treasure them always.
Thank you, Dr Kaylee and the Van Wijk Street Vet team, for understanding that Tyson was not simply an animal we brought into your care. He was deeply loved, and he was part of our family.
Tyson’s name means “firebrand”—someone high-spirited and full of fire. We could not have chosen a more fitting name for our beautiful boy.
Thank you for ten wonderful years of loyalty, laughter, companionship and unconditional love.
The house will never feel quite the same without you, Tyson, but your paw prints will remain on our hearts forever.
Run freely now, our precious boy.
Perhaps somewhere beyond our sight, someone has just whispered…
“Monkeys.” 🐾🤍
Forever loved.
Forever missed.
Forever our boy.

From Russia, with love 💙

Tonight, our Russian guests arrived at Kruger Allo B&B carrying the most precious surprise: beautiful, handmade blue-and-white Gzhel pottery and porcelain.

Gzhel is a treasured Russian artistic tradition, recognised by its distinctive cobalt-blue designs on white porcelain. These gifts travelled thousands of kilometres to reach our little home in Komatipoort—and that makes them even more meaningful.

This is so much more than pottery. It is a little piece of Russian culture, given with kindness and carried into our home.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this beautiful and thoughtful gift. I will treasure it always.

And, as the photograph shows, Bob made sure our guests received a proper South African welcome too! 🐾

Из России — с любовью 💙

Сегодня наши гости из России приехали в Kruger Allo B&B и преподнесли мне драгоценный сюрприз — прекрасные изделия ручной работы в традиции гжели.

Гжель — это знаменитый русский художественный промысел, известный своими изящными кобальтово-синими узорами на белом фарфоре. Эти подарки преодолели тысячи километров, чтобы попасть в наш маленький дом в Коматипорте, и от этого они стали для меня ещё ценнее.

Это гораздо больше, чем просто фарфор. Это частичка русской культуры, подаренная от чистого сердца и привезённая в наш дом.

Спасибо вам от всего сердца за этот прекрасный и такой душевный подарок. Я всегда буду бережно его хранить.

А судя по фотографии, Боб тоже позаботился о том, чтобы наши гости получили настоящий южноафриканский приём! 🐾

Today, as your daughter, I look at these photographs and see far more than sixty years of marriage. I see two young people who could never have known all that their “I do” would ask of them—or all that it would one day create.

Sixty years is not a story of perfect people or an effortless marriage. It is a story of choices made again and again: to stay, to forgive, to grow, to begin again and to trust God through seasons that were both beautiful and deeply difficult.

Like a diamond, your marriage has been shaped under pressure and refined through time. Its true brilliance is not found only in the years you have shared, but in the family that grew from your commitment—the children, children-in-love and grandchildren who each carry a facet of your legacy.

Mom and Dad, thank you for showing us that love is not merely something we feel; it is something we choose, protect and live out. Your journey has taught us that God’s grace can redeem the past, hold us through the present and give purpose to everything still ahead.

Bernard and I celebrate you both today with grateful hearts. What a privilege it is to call you our parents and to be part of the life you built together.

Happy 60th Diamond Anniversary, Mom and Dad. May the years ahead be gentle, joy-filled and covered by the same faithful God who has carried you this far.

And yes—after sixty years, you are still talking! That may be the rarest diamond of all. 💎

Friday mornings are made for little local adventures! 🌿☕🍰

Bern and I enjoyed such a lovely morning at Shawu’s Boma in Komatipoort.

There really is something for everyone in the family. The adults can relax, enjoy the beautiful Crocodile River view and have something delicious to eat, while the children have space to play and enjoy themselves.

Their pizzas are made with a sourdough base, the cakes are delicious, and the atmosphere makes it a wonderful place for tea, lunch or a relaxed family outing.

Do yourself a favour and support this beautiful local restaurant. It is a real Komatipoort gem! 💚

“Our Oldest Guest Yet…”
THE GUEST WHO ARRIVED WITH 166 YEARS OF STORIES

At Kruger Allo B&B, our guests often arrive carrying interesting stories—but this time, one of the most fascinating “guests” was not a person.

It was this magnificent antique muzzle-loading firearm, beautifully engraved:

“I. Hollis & Sons — Makers to Her Majesty’s War Department.”
Believed to date from around the 1860s, it was loaded in the traditional way—from the front of the barrel with black powder and shot. Its journey is thought to have taken it from Britain to America, where fi****ms of this type were used and traded during a turbulent period of history. Whether this particular gun witnessed conflict cannot yet be confirmed, but its worn metal, aged timber and intricate markings leave us wondering:

Where has it travelled?
Who carried it?
And what stories would it tell if it could speak?

For a short while, this remarkable piece of history graced us with its presence at Kruger Allo B&B.

History is not always comfortable, and it is not always beautiful—but whether good or bad, it shapes the world we inherit.

Sometimes we become so busy looking forward that we forget to pause when the past walks through our door.

Thank you to its new custodian for allowing us to see, hold and appreciate this extraordinary visitor.

Some guests leave a review.
Others leave us thinking about the last 166 years.
