I have made some booking at booking.com for a hotel. I borrowed. My friends credit card and did the booking which is confirmed upto 3 days before date of arrival at hotel. It is a free cancellation booking. Now if I want to make the payment against that booking, which way I can do that cuz I don't have a credit card. Secondly, do I need to pay through same credit card from which I made the booking or it can be any other.
How to pay if no credit card!

if the booking is direct with the hotel, it might help if you call them, but if its an agent i dont think you can

If you booked it through booking.com. CC was only for quarantee the booking. You can pay as you want in the hotel. I am sure they will accept cash payment. But be prepared to have lot of cash, as I will assume they will also want you to leave a deposit (which will be returned when you check out).

VPK, yes I know that but how can I pay at hotel cuz when I reach hotel, it will be too late...I need to settle it before three days of arrival at hotel. I mean my booking will not be in tact until I arrive at the hotel, either I have to pay three days earlier tha n arrival, or they may deduct one night charges from CC that I used for making booking, though I would lov to pay at hotel...but how !!
Prepaid master card looks only solution, If I could get it before my departing date...I have already applied for it today.
