I just received a reservation through Booking and noticed they didn't send me the card's security code they way they used to. I charge a 1st night deposit at the time they reserve, so I went into ResKey and luckily the charge went through OK without the security code. Whew! A relief. That had me concerned!
So I went to my Booking account and found this message from them, dated Monday of this week:
Dear Partner
We would like to notify you that effective immediately the CVC code from guests will not be requested at the time of booking and therefore you should expect that this will not be distributed to you when a booking is made. If you require the CVC code for a preauthorization and/or charge to a guest, please reply via the Extranet Inbox requesting an exception.
Regards
The Booking.com Team
So they don't even have the code themselves. They're not asking for it anymore.
