Phil Beer thanks for that. You are right not all of them are owned by Expedia or bookingdotcom but most of them are. I think TripAdvisor is owned by Expedia or a parent company. Trivago owned by Expedia were fined $45 million in Aus for their price claims.

well I walked in to one hotel and the price he gave me was considerably cheaper. Walked into another. Got the price. Then used Agoda and the price was considerably cheaper. The girls at the desk were surprised.
