Cheaptickets Arvostelua 483

Il n’y aucun service après-vente, une fois qu’on a réservé on ne peut plus les contacter. Tout automstisé avec un soit-disant charbon qui en fait est une arnaque, on ne peut parler à personne. Mon vol a été modifié 3 fois puis finalement annulé sans aucune explication et je ne peux joindre personne pour me faire rembourser mes billets. En gros ce site est une arnaque et je ne le recommande absolument pas !!!!!!

We booked three tickets to Japan last year but, seeing how the COVID crisis was developing decided to cancel. Cheap Tickets advised us, in an email, to hold on for a further few weeks as if the airline cancelled the flight we would be eligible for a full, not partial, refund.

We held on, the flight was cancelled, and the refund was promised.

It took nine months for the refund to be made, in full, directly to a bank account not to the purchasing card. But here’s the thing. Despite taking forever the money was refunded in full. Despite the phone number never being answered they answered every email I sent and furthermore sent an email to say that things were being processed every couple of weeks as a way of showing we had not been forgotten in the system.

We have used Cheaptickets several time to fly to Japan and Europe and this was the first problem we encountered and it was, eventually, settled in our favour during a time when the whole industry was collapsing around us. I had no real expectation that the money would be returned, expecting instead bankruptcies and broken promises, and was delighted when we received our money back.

It took a long time but they held our hand and reassured us throughout. I think they did ok by us.

Had a credit for Alaska Airlines from 2020 cancellation due to covid. Booked a flight in 2021 only to find out that after receiving a flight confirmation number, and were at the airport that we had been cancelled off both the to and from flights.
There were no flights available out that day that was less than 1900 dollars for two people to fly from Phoenix to Seattle.
No charges were billed to my card and the 292.40 credit that was supposed to be there for me to use disappeared.
Now I have to dispute the room charges I booked, the rental car fees I never got to use, and try again to get back the flight credit that disappeared from Cheap Tickets website six days ago.
They told me they were going to escalate the case, but so far has not called me.
NEVER again will I book a flight on this Mickey Mouse POS website.

I have contacted IATA today, as they display IATA LOGO on their websites. This is the text of the communication.
A company I booked airline tickets with in March 2020, has consistently refused to pay a partial refund they have agreed to. The flight was cancelled as advised by them. The company involved is cheaptickets (thailand)

However this company is brandishing the IATA logo, claiming it is an 'AFFILIATE MEMBER' OF IATA.
The company's headquarters are in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. It has many other connected websites around the world, all their sites display the IATA logo.

It has consistently failed to refund passengers for airline tickets, some of which the airlines have refunded to the 'Cheap Tickets' over the last year.

My questions are:-

Is Cheap Tickets an affiliate member of IATA?
If is not, how can you stop Cheap Tickets, in it's various forms from displaying your logo, and asserting it is an affiliate member?
Cheap Tickets operate through a range of websites.

This is not a legitimate business. None of the customer service numbers work (740)233-0140 is disconnected, (855)983-4672 voicemail box full not able to leave a message. Contact us link does not work and the website link goes to GoDaddy. Not able to cancel or get a refund. Do not use this website: Cheapflightfares. Email receipt lists company as TravelNTickets also illegitimate and no customer service. Total scam. Will not refund $2598.02 for three reservations: 798073,799062,799080. How can you reach them to change a reservation or cancel the purchase when there is no customer service number that works? Investigate Cheapflightsfares and TravelNtickets so no one else is scammed and ripped off.

USING CHEAPTICKETS was my first big mistake ...First time using them and LAST TIME using them... THE disappointment continues with HILTON and EMBASSY Suites Ft Lauderdale .... My stay was scheduled for Friday April 1st ... My son tested positive for Covid on Wed 30th and I immediately contacted CheapTickets working on either rescheduling or Cancel/reimburse for my prepaid stay. They said they would work on it... I called I sent emails and received very little communication back on what was getting done and I believe that was issues with Both organizations ... I typically would sing praises for Hilton and Embassy but in this instance they scored less than a zero...So many other things to deal with that this should be a simple click of a button and they either refunded me or let me reschedule the stay to the new date of the delayed trip.... Really disappointed.... Feel robbed

DO NOT BUY TICKETS FROM HERE. I’m near positive that Cheap Tickets is a scam. Sent me an itinerary number that doesn’t work for anything, and good luck getting ANYTHING out of them through customer service. If you need anything, you have to go straight through the airline. We’re stuck right now because we purchased our whole trip through them, but I wish we never had.

This was the worst experience.
Nothing about the original flight stayed the same. The airlines (Jetblue and Avianca) were changing information cheaptickets never told me. I ended up paying for a hotel due to a 24 hour layover.

No one is responsible and no can help

Don't deceive yourself, it's just that you sent me an email telling me that refunds started on February 9th, and it is already February 25th today, and I haven't received your refund for a cent in my account! If you say that you have refunded, please post your bank refund voucher here for everyone to see!
Don't just send an email refund evidence edited by your company, please take out the bank refund electronic bill!
Order number is CHK-5661447

This is not a business, but a bunch of criminals.
Because of COVID (therefore not my fault) my flight was cancelled, British Airways returned my money without any issue, Cheaptickets instead refused to return the $65 fee.
I hope they go out of business ASAP; a company speculating on this pandemia does not deserve to be on the market.

I bought in march 2020 tickets to Jakarta. The tickets were canceled in april by the airline. In september the airline gave me the proof tha the tickets were already refund to Cheaptickets, who claims until now (march 2021) that they are still waiting for the refund from the airline to refund me.

In december I bought tickets to Manado, via Jakarta. They provide me with tickets to Jakarta, but not to Manado. I've contacted them many times, no response.

I have used cheaptickets twice. Great prices and discounts. I had no issues. Everything was perfect.

COVID 19- Flight Cancellation

Back in Feb. 2020, I booked a trip for me and my family to go to ARUBA ($2,400 for airline tickets), we used cheaptickets before so I went to them for the tickets.

In March 2020, all fights were cancelled and in May we were advised that our flight to Aruba was cancelled. In May, I reached out to cheaptickets about the cancellation and they confirmed that the trip was cancelled and that they were going to refund me. June, July, August and September I called them and received the same answer, please allow more time. Then in late September they advised that they did not get the refund from the airlines. So I start to investigate and it appears that you can put in the airline tickets on the United site and it advises you the status of your ticket and if it was refunded and to who it was refunded too. I print each ticket out and put them in a PDF, I drafted a nice letter letting cheaptickets know that maybe it was an oversight, but United is showing that cheaptickets was refunded on June 8, 2020 in the form of a check.

Well the next 20 emails are stating that they did not get it... never did the offer to call or did they call United. I tried to call United but I am not the one who purchased the tickets cheaptickets has to call.. I even advised United on what was happening and still nothing... as of today i received the same horrible email from them -- see below:

Though it should not be topic for discussion now as we would be happy to process your full refund from our end after we get the refund of your tickets from the airline. Jun 8th, 2020 is the date that shows airline processed the check refund but as we informed you multiple times that we have not received it yet.

At this point, I have gone to the BBB and seek an Attorney... I am sure they are not just doing this to me.... be careful of this company...

I asked Cheaptickets for a refund of flights that were cancelled by the airline due to the pandemic. The flights were scheduled for May, I received a voucher from the airline after cancellation.

I asked for a refund of that voucher in July, at which point Cheaptickets claimed my flights had not even been cancelled. After many messages back and forth, they confirmed that my booking had indeed been cancelled by the airline and they claimed they had started my refund application, which could take up to 4 weeks.

When those 4 weeks had passed, I contacted customer service again but I only received automated replies, saying that my request was in progress and I needed to be patient. It was at the end of October that I was informed that my request had been cancelled by Cheaptickets! They claimed this was because I had received a voucher instead, which makes no sense since I asked for a refund of the voucher in the first place.

Again, they promised to finalize my “new” request within 4 weeks. It has been over a month now but I still haven’t seen my money back. Customer service is not responding to my messages anymore. Even given the circumstances, this customer service is the worst.

UPDATE: today I was informed that my refund was denied by KLM, even though KLM promises to refund all vouchers! No reason or explanation given.

If I could give Cheaptickets a 0 star rating, that would still be too nice! We booked our Costa Rica trip through them back on Nov 7 for a vacation to visit our son from Nov 21-28. We get to the airport, check our baggage with the Delta agent, and she says, "enjoy your trip to Puerto Rico!" This was our first alert to the problem! The delta agent tries to work some things out but ultimately we have to call Cheaptickets because that's who we originally used to book this trip. After hours on hold and missing our original flight, a Cheapticket agent finally answers and says that Delta made the mistake and that they show they booked us a flight to SJO airport in Costa Rica! They insist it is a problem with Delta and we need to call them to correct it. After we're on hold for another hour with Delta, they inform us that our confirmation notice from Cheaptickets was wrong all along! The confirmation info said we were going to the SJU airport in Puerto Rico! We had never noticed Cheaptickets' mistake! The Delta agent tried to get us another flight to see our son in CR but ultimately it was going to cost so much more money and it just wasn't going to be feasible. But Delta could not give us a refund on our missed trip because we booked through Cheaptickets. So, we had to call Cheaptickets back. After another hour on hold, their agent tells us that they could not refund our trip because we 1) didn't flag their mistake back on Nov 7 AND 2) we were "no shows" for our flight that day!!!! I couldn't believe what I was hearing! They screwed up and WE didn't catch it so now we weren't getting a refund! They were absolutely no help whatsoever! So now we weren't going on our trip to see our son for Thanksgiving and we also couldn't go back to our home because we had allowed some extended family members who were in OK from FL to stay in our home while we were gone! Not to mention the money we were now going to throw away on a hotel in OK and not get a refund for our hotel in Costa Rica! Cheaptickets made a mistake and now we are suffering from this! I will NEVER EVER EVER use their services again and I will NEVER EVER EVER recommend them to anyone I know or meet. I will be filling out reviews on them with the better business bureau and anywhere else I can find to let others know about their ineptness and terrible customer service! Shame on you Cheaptickets!

CheapTickets has horrible customer service and has neglected to refund an $840 flight ticket of mine, and it has been 5+ months since the flight was cancelled. Twice after I've waited the 6-8 weeks or more and sat on the phone or chat for hours with customer service, I have been told the refund was not processed correctly. I am now being told to wait an additional 2-3 months. Here's what has happened. I purchased a ticket pre-COVID, in January, for a study abroad trip that was supposed to take place in May. The trip was of course cancelled, so I requested a cancellation of my flight from CheapTickets as well as the airway the flight was through in March. The airway responded that the flight had already been cancelled. I never received an official notification of this flight cancellation from CheapTickets or the airline. At this time, CheapTickets wasn't even accepting phone calls for anyone without a reservation scheduled for the next 14 days, so I struggled to get ahold of anyone for help. CheapTickets never offered me a refund but instead a flight credit in March or April. I found out that they were legally obligated to refund my ticket because the flight was cancelled, so I requested the refund in May and was told I'd have to wait 6 weeks or more. I contacted them in July and was told to continue waiting because it could take 10 weeks or more. By August I had still not received payment, so I sat on the phone with customer service for hours and eventually was told the payment wasn't processed properly and would have to wait another 6 to 8 weeks. It is now November, and I contacted them again requesting an update, and after hours of online chat communication and being told to wait, I was told AGAIN that my payment was not processed properly and that I have to wait an additional 8-10 weeks. I requested multiple times to receive contact information of an individual for a quicker more efficient follow up and was ignored/denied over and over again. I also asked numerous times for more information as to why the refund didn't process correctly twice now and was ignored/denied for that too. Also the card I purchased the tickets with back in January is supposed to expire this month, and I brought up this as a concern for how they would refund me, and I was again ignored. I requested to be called by a supervisor and provided my phone number. The person I was speaking to told me I'd receive a call in the next 24 hours. Mind you its 6:30 PM here, and if I miss the call, I will have no way to call back and will be forced to sit on the phone for hours again. I expressed my concern for this and was told that since I asked for a supervisor, I'll have to wait. I'm astonished at the lack of quality in their customer service. There is no reason I should have to wait 5-8+ months for an $840 refund. Also I should note I purchased these tickets at the same time as a friend. We got the exact same tickets, same flights, etc. all through CheapTickets. He was refunded without issue back in April or May. I'm so frustrated and disappointed.

We request to re-schedule the flight through email. But no one response. The hotline can never be reached. Passenger information was not passed to the airline, we cannot even ask the airlines to help.

They're Scam.
They refused to reschedule my flight and refused to refund me they money after One hour speaking to an Agent Edward. I asked for his supervisor his response we don't have supervisor
But I'm the Manager he said

What a scam!!! They have been holding my money for 7 months since I booked my flight that was later cancelled due to Covid-19. Now they are saying it will take 8-10 weeks to issue a refund. I called customer service and they told me to call the airline. I called the airline and they won't issue the credit without having a request from cheaptickets. Such a disrespect for people's money. NEVER AGAIN!!!
