I was standing on the balcony of my hotel in Lisbon and looking at the street. I opened my banking app on my phone and saw some money came back to my account. My first thought was simple. Where did this money come from. Is it really what I think it is. Then I started to think about the whole booking. How did I book the car at the start. It was very normal. I went on QEEQ and chose a car. I planned to pick it up around the afternoon on the fourteenth of August and return it at night on the twenty ninth. I just wanted an easy plan. The price looked okay at that time. In my head I kept asking myself. Should I wait a bit. Should I compare more sites. In the end I still clicked to book. Why did I do that. Because I saw a service called Price Drop Protector. The page said that if the price goes down later they will book again with the lower price and send the difference back to me. I asked myself again. Will this thing really save money for me. Or is it just some words on the screen. I felt it was worth a try because I did not need to do extra work and I did not need to watch the price every day so I turned it on. What happened later. One day at home my phone showed a new booking for the same trip. That was how I saw they really changed my booking to a cheaper one. My first reaction was simple. Is this a mistake. Did I lose something in this new booking. Maybe the car is worse. Maybe the time is wrong. I opened the order and checked the details. Pick up was still on the fourteenth of August in the afternoon. Return was still on the twenty ninth at night. The car group was the same and what I needed was still there. I asked myself again. So what about the price difference. The answer was very clear. They really sent the price difference back to me and it was a bit more than thirty euros almost forty. When I saw the number I felt a bit shocked. For me this is enough for a few good meals in Lisbon. I did nothing special. I just made a normal booking and waited to travel in August. I never watch car prices all the time. I would not check them every day and compare. For me this felt like extra money that just showed up. Then I started to think in another way. What if I did not have this Price Drop Protector. I would just pay the first price and never know the price went lower later. I would not feel that I lost money but I also would not get anything back. Now they changed the booking for me and returned the difference so it felt like I won a small prize for free. So when I stood on the balcony and saw that extra money in my account my brain went through it again in a simple way. Did I change the booking by myself. No. Did I call anyone to ask for a discount. No. It was only because I turned on this service when I booked on QEEQ and they did the rest. For a visitor like me coming from another country and not wanting to study prices every day this kind of automatic saving feels very nice. Everything happened quietly in the background while I was just getting ready for my trip and now I have a bit more money to spend on other things. I really did not do anything and I still saved some money.
