Review: In Feb 2014 I scheduled ticket itinerary from [redacted] to [redacted]. I printed the document and paid in full. Flight was scheduled for ** Dec 2014. On ** Dec 2014 I approached the airport representative to validate the itinerary. To my surprise the airline submitted did not operate from that airport. I immediately contacted that airline carrier whom redirected me back to the travel agency, I proceeded to call the travel agency whom only offered reimbursement. I asked if I could be booked on a different airline and was told by a [redacted] that they would need to apply the refund first to my Credit card. Initially the funds for the travel was $2495.22. Then after the [redacted] resubmitted the request they used a different Travel agency [redacted]. when I called them for an e-mail confirmation, the computer automated response indicated I have already called that agency earlier today. That would indicate they are affiliated. I asked for a refund for the second flight as the cost submitted was and was $3,709.50 which is nearly $1200 difference informed a refund is already pending. The refund in question is with a different organization. I am not willing to pay 50% more for the same service from then to now. I feel they should reimburse me the interest rate for holding the reservation for 10 months without a single successful contact to inform me. Calls were not answered as I felt solicitation since I had already paid for the tickets, E-mail was incorrect. What about a registered letter by the post office? Does Snail mail no longer exist. That company had ample time to contact me. Very unprofessional! I feel that since the tickets were paid outright, new tickets should have been issues for no additional funds. This is very similar to "Hook and Bait" scenario.Desired Settlement: Reimburse Credit card for both sums as I feel 2495.22 from [redacted] and 3709.50 from [redacted]. Have either/both organizations contact their clients by any means available when circumstances occur in changes. A "Registered Letter" by post office could have prevent the agony I have been put through and the discomfort my entire family. A change in their policy that they should absorb the cost of the difference, when:"paid in full and up front" or reimburse with interest rate when not preventable. They could be scamming others for thousands of dollars and profiting from time of submission until time flight when beyond 30 days.

Terrible service. I will never deal with this company again. I was booking online tickets and was disconnected only to have one of there agent mess up my request and charge me for it then wanted to charge me to cancel then wanted to charge me extra to fix their mistake. Garbage!!!!

Unfortunately, on Feb * 2014, my family and I arrived early for the scheduled flight (Westjet Airlines Flight 1699) from Los Angeles (LAX) to Vancouver (YVR). Upon checking in at Terminal 2 with Westjet Airlines, the agent said I can not check in without valid Canadian Visa. I immediately called the Cheapoair Customer Service for help. The agent replied to me that the next option was another airline flight on Feb **, which was too late and would cost me an additional USD $3700. At this point, I was told I would have to cancel my original flight without any refund.

Finally I found an airline flight by myself and paid USD $3434.5 to fly that night and missed a very important business meeting.

I believe if that information was given to me over the phone by the customer service rep, I would not have changed my ORIGINAL booking. It should be part of their policy to make customer aware of different situations and travel restrictions when changing or modifying their booking and flying them through a 3rd country.

I sent a complaint letter to Cheapoair asking them to refund my credit card account for USD $6000. ($3434.5 for tickets plus $2565.5 compensation for missing a very important business meeting).

The reply letter from Cheapoair as below:

Dear [redacted] I have been forwarded your concerns regarding your recent airline travel. I appreciate the opportunity to look into it for you.

On November **, 2013 you or someone on your behalf went onto our website and submitted a reservation request. At that time you agreed to our terms and conditions, part of which state:

Passport / Visa: For international travel, all passengers must be in possession of valid travel documents such as ticket, passport, visas, transit visas, Schengen Visas and all other entry permits. Your passport must be valid for 6 months after your return date. While sometimes we may be able to assist with visa and passport information, it is solely the responsibility of the passenger(s) to arrange for all documents needed to enter the country you are traveling to, or passing through in transit.

This same information is on the confirmation emails that you were sent. I regret any inconvenience but I must advise you that we are not responsible so we must deny your request. What I can do is submit a request for you to the airline to see if they will refund the unused portion of your tickets. Please understand that it will be their decision that we have no voice in. I will submit the request today to our team that works with airlines on cases where we are asking them to waive their rules. Once I hear back from them I will of course let you know. Unfortunately it may take a little time since it is not always a quick reply back.

If you have any further questions please don't hesitate to contact me.

Thank you [redacted] Escalation Team [redacted] Phone: ###-###-####

Sincerely,

Review: I bought a return ticket on this website to travel from Dubai to Greensboro and back to Dubai. I just noticed on the e-ticket sent to me by the company that I would have to change airports when Washington Dulles to Washington National, at my expense, to continue my trip to Greensboro. I bought insurance with my ticket. I called the company's customer service that I did not notice that there was an airport switch as it was either not the case when I bought the ticket or it was not disclosed. I asked that the change to made so that I continue my journey from Dulles or my ticket be cancelled. Even though I bought insurance with the ticket, the company is refusing to correct the airport change or cancel the ticket unless I pay more money. It feels the company is running a scam or a deceptive business.Desired Settlement: The company will have to arrange for me to continue my trip to Greensboro from Washington Dulles or cancel ticket and give me full refund immediately so that I can buy another ticket at similar price as I have 7 days to travel.

Business

Response:

[redacted]

Dear

[redacted]:

This

is in response to the complaint we received regarding the above referenced Booking

Number. In his complain [redacted] is

requesting us to arrange a ticket from Washington Dulles airport to Greensboro,

NC or provide a full refund of a non-refundable ticket he purchased via our

online website.

When

[redacted] visited our website and searched for his flights, he was advised he

had to change airports, from Washington Dulles to Washington National. After selecting the flights he was shown a

pre-confirmation before we even asked for his name, let alone credit card

information, please see attached documents that alerted the client about the

airport change.

Then

after his name, payment information and address, we again asked [redacted] to

double check that his flights, dates, destination, personal information were

correct before clicking "Book" to confirm (please see attachment

document). With all of these double checks in place, we STILL understand

that someone may make an error, therefore, we advise on our booking page that

we will change or refund at no cost if the client makes us aware within 24 hours. We sent [redacted] a

confirmation e-mail so he may verify his information; however, he booked these

flights on March **, 2014, but contacted us on March **, 2014, well after the

24 hour timeframe had passed. At this point, all airline rules and

restrictions were now in place. As a travel agency we cannot override

airline rules, it is not CheapOair that is charging the airport change fee or

denying the full refund. When clients book on-line without the assistance of

our Customer Service Department, which is available 24/7, they are responsible

for verifying all pertinent information before confirming a nonrefundable

reservation. We have several “double

checks” in place for our clients and CheapOair should not be held responsible

if a client has opted not to take advantage of them.

We

appreciate the time and attention your office has given this matter and we are requesting

that this complaint be removed, as there is no error from our part and we feel

that all times customer was informed of the airport change

Sincerely,

[redacted]

Review: I was issued an international ticket with 1 day layover at Dubai for my retired parents and the sales person did not notify/warn us about the 1 day layover at Dubai. Had to buy a new ticket now worth almost 1K. Spoke to [redacted] -she is arguing about the confirmation email, which I had to check.

I didn't notice the layover time as there is confusion in the international timing overlap. I'm expecting it would be minimum courtesy for the sales guy to mention that there is more than 24hr layover and they haven't done that. I'm expecting a refund. Hope Revdex.com will help me out.

Appreciate your assistance.Desired Settlement: Help me getting the refund.

Response:

Dear [redacted]:

This

is in response to the complaint we received regarding the above referenced

booking number. In her complaint [redacted] is requesting a refund for non refundable tickets since she did not

realize that her parents arrived into Dubai on April [redacted] but did

not department until April [redacted].

We

would like to advise the Revdex.com that two refunds have been

processed for [redacted]. The first in

the amount of $108.00 was processed on April **, 2014. The second in the amount of $871.56 to a Visa

ending in [redacted] for a total of $979.56

This

process may take between 10 – 14 business days before it may reflect back to her

account.

We

regret any confusion or frustrations [redacted] encountered and are requesting that this

compliant be closed and remove this from our file since the flight times and

dates were advised to [redacted] prior to her submitting her reservation.

We

appreciate the time and attention your office has given to this matter.

Sincerely,

Review: I bought 4 ticket from CheapOair online. Before submit the request, I checked everything was right. After I got the e-mail, I saw my name printed misspelled. I called to the company and requested to correct my last name. The customer service representative told me that is not possible, and also told that I cannot fly under that name and my ticket automatically is useless. When I asked her what can I do, she offered me to cancel old ticket and buy a new one, and because it is not refundable purchase she had to ask superior if she can get some refund for me. After a while she answered that I can get $671.90 from $1036+ tax, and also I should pay a cancellation fee $200. I thought I do not have other choice and trusted the lady because we had already scheduled our trip and I did not want to miss that trip. I accepted, and I bought a more expensive ticket for the same flight about $1260. When I spoke with friends, they suggested me to call airport and be sure that misspelled ticket was really invalid, and when I talked to someone in airport, I understood that lady who represent the ChepOair Company lied to me and cause me about $1200 damage. I called them and complained about lying me, and demand my money back. They told me they are not able to do that because Airline Company supposed to accept that and they will request in behalf of me. I called to airline and they told me they are not involved about tickets which different companies may sell. When I checked my credit card account I noticed that company charged me another $137 without discussed with me, and instead of charging one ticket price, they charge two tickets costs, and one day later they returned the second ticket amount. Their action caused me a $1000 mines on my account. I called again, and complained them that why they used my credit cart without my permission and demanded again to return my money, and also told them detailed that they lied to me, fooled me to cancel my ticket, to buy another ticket, charge me extra cancellation fee, and when my son spoke with them a little angrily, they agreed to pay $337 back which they charge me. I saw they really can pay my lost ticket fee, but they do not want. They told that I will receive my amount about 2 months later. However, they promised me to give my refund about $337 (cancellation and other charge fee) and $670 from my old ticket, but I am losing about $500 again.Desired Settlement: Please help me to settled my claim. They lied to me, cause me financial and emotional damage. They do not provide fair service and their online service to purchase tickets is fraud, the computer make purposely mistake in customer name to confuse and frustrate them. Now, I want my whole ticket money back. They promise me to refund some money, but if they return that amount, I still will lose $500. Please help me to get my rights.

Dear [redacted]:

This

is in response to the complaint we received regarding the above referenced

booking number. In her complaint [redacted] is requesting that one of the names be changed since when filling out

the name information prior to submitting her reservation she entered her last

name as [redacted] (see attachment).

Prior

to submitting his reservation he was

also advised “Please confirm that the dates, times of

flight departures and names of travelers are accurate, tickets are

non-transferable and non-assignable, name changes on tickets are not permitted,

ticket cost and service fees are non-refundable, all govt. and our service fees and taxes

are included in the total ticket cost, however, tickets are refundable within

twenty-four (24) hours of the time of purchase. Date and routing changes will be subject to airline penalties and our

service fees.”

[redacted] was advised that on her behalf a refund request has been submitted to

Etihad Airlines refund department for consideration, since we are a travel

agency and we are not authorized to waive any airline policy The decision to refund all or part of the money

[redacted]s seeking will be solely up to the individual airline based on the

information provided. Please understand that this process may take up to 60 days

and the refund if granted, will be processed back to the original form of

payment used when the reservation was submitted.

We

regret any confusion or frustrations [redacted] encountered.

We

appreciate the time and attention your office and are requesting that this

complaint be closed and not counted against use since the error was made by [redacted] since she spelled her last name incorrectly prior to submitting her

reservation.

Consumer

Response:

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# [redacted], and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:

1- I did not typed my last name wrong

2- I checked everything and then submitted

3- They did not e-mail me the inquiry during 24 hours in

order to if I want to cancel it I do not have to face with problem

4- I did not want to cancel my ticket

5- Their representative lied to me that I cannot use that

ticket because airport does not allow me to fly: I checked with airport they confirm that they

would correct the misspelling because the ticket was paid by my credit card and

my name and last name was shown their clearly.

6- After their representative sold me another ticket ($200

more expensive) I checked my credit card I saw they charged me 2 tickets cost (2*1262.06)

and then they return one ticket cost next day: they used my credit card without

my permission and I have to pay extra to bank because my account was shown minus

7- The air line did not know anything about this transaction

or conversation, and the company is only responsible.

My request is the same. I want my whole ticket money back

because they lied to me, forced me to buy another ticket, and give me hard time.

In addition, they did not refund $670 yet which they promised

me (I have their e-mail to proof that).

Thank you Revdex.com Serving

Sincerely,

Response:

[redacted]

Dear [redacted]:

This

is in response to the rebuttal we received regarding the above referenced

booking number. I cannot understand how

[redacted] can state that she did not spell her name incorrectly .

In

my letter dated May *, 2014, we supplied what we call our “Payment Page” (see

attachment 1). This is what is shown to the customer after they have chosen an

itinerary from the options offered to them. As you can see when [redacted] entered her

last name as [redacted].

We

also requested to “Please confirm that the dates,

times of flight departures and names of travelers are accurate, tickets are

non-transferable and non-assignable, name changes on tickets are not permitted,

ticket cost and service fees are non-refundable, all govt. and our service fees and taxes

are included in the total ticket cost, however, tickets are refundable within

twenty-four (24) hours of the time of purchase. Date and routing changes will be subject to airline penalties and our

service fees.”

Once

the tickets were issued (April [redacted]) email confirmation was sent (see

attachment 2) again you can see the ticket was issued under [redacted] which again

is the name she entered.

[redacted] also stated that she has not received her refund. As stated in my original response the refund

process may take up to 60 days and the refund will be processed back to the

original form of payment used when the reservation was submitted.

We

regret confusion [redacted] encountered but no other compensation will be

offered.

We

appreciate the time and attention your office and are requesting that this

complaint be closed and not counted against use since the error was made by [redacted] based on the information provided that she did spelled her last name incorrectly

prior to submitting her reservation.

Sincerely,

Consumer

Response:

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# [redacted], and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:

I did not misspell my

name because I spelled it once again in payment link ( I used my credit card to

pay the cost). My question is not only about the company’s poor online system,

but also about why their representative fooled me, confused me and misled me to

cancel my ticket and buy another one. I would be able to change my misspelled last name in Air port. Her and my conversation should be

recorded (If they do not lie about that too). Why they use my credit card

without my permission and charge me $137 (which when I called and complained

they returned me).

My request from Cheap o'air

Company is return my damage about $500. However, I have not receive the $670 refund

yet.

I appreciate the Revdex.com useful act to give me and other people like me to raise their complain about some businesses unfairness actions.

In order for the Revdex.com to appropriately process your response, you MUST answer the question above.

Sincerely,

Review: the cheapoair website does NOT clearly warn customers that they ONLY have 4 hours in order to cancel a purchase before incurring a $25 fee PER person

on june *, 2014 , I purchased 3 airline tickets . the next morning I called to cancel our reservation, and I was told that a full refund would be issued . then I was told that a $75 would be charged to my credit card. after two phone calls, I asked to speak to a supervisor but was denied access.Desired Settlement: please refund the $75 fee that was charged without my knowledge or my approving this penalty .

Response:

[redacted]

Dear [redacted]:

This

is in response to the complaint we received regarding the above referenced

booking number. In her complaint [redacted] is requesting a refund for the $75 she was charged when she called

to cancel her reservation.

On

June *, 2014, [redacted] or someone on her behalf went on our website and

submitted a round trip reservation from Madison, Wisconsin to Los Angeles,

California. The reservation was booked

without the assistance of one of our Customer Service agents, in these cases it

is the responsibility of the person making the reservation to make sure they read

all necessary and important information.

She

was also advised “All airline tickets are 100%

non-refundable. In certain cases where the airline may allow cancellations,

a credit may be valid towards a future ticket purchase by the same traveler

with travel on the same airline. An applicable penalty and a fare difference

(if any), will be added in these cases. Usually the credit issued by the

airline supplier is valid with time constraints and a specific expiration date

and should be discussed with a customer service agent. All such bookings where

the cancellation may be permitted must be cancelled prior to the scheduled

departure time of the first flight segment by calling our customer service

center. We do not guarantee any cancellation. A cancellation fee of $50 per

person per ticket must be paid to us at the time of cancelling the booking; we

retain this fee. The credit will be held for a limited time period, please ask

the customer service agent for the specific date by when you must use this

credit or you will lose the credit amount. When you are ready to make the new

booking, you will have to the pay fare difference (if any), applicable airline

penalties for that fare and OneTravel.com exchange fees. All such changes are

governed by the airlines' rules and regulations and are out of our control.

OneTravel.com does not provide any representations or guarantees on changes or

fees. If you are cancelling the booking and applying for a refund please read

our Refunds Policy. Read more about our Change Policy if you wish to exchange

the tickets for new dates or routing.” Any and all changes made to the itinerary

are restricted and subject to the airlines fare rules.

[redacted] also stated in her

complaint that we do not advised that if you want to cancel your ticket free of

any charge you must call within 4 hours of booking prior to submitting her

request if [redacted], was advised this information under “Free

Cancellations” (see attachment).

On June *, 2014, when [redacted]

contacted our customer service department, our agent advised that in order to

cancel her reservation she would be subject to a 25.00 per person cancellation

fee.

It was at this time that she

informed the customer service agent that she was going to contact her credit card

company and dispute the charges.

We

regret any confusion encountered by [redacted] but no refund will

be offered since

her reservation was not cancelled and she was never charged.

We

appreciate the time and attention your office has given this matter. I am requesting that this complaint be closed

and not counted against us, base on the above information.

Sincerely,

Review: Due too declining asthma problem and metal in my back Cold weather causes [redacted], I will move in two weeks to texas and no longer able to take the flight I had schedule back in Feb 2014 for a flight in Jan 2015.

RE: [redacted]/Case [redacted] Booking

Number [redacted]

Dear [redacted]:

This

is in response to the complaint we received regarding the above referenced booking

number. In her complaint [redacted] is

requesting a refund for a ticket she purchased via our online website.

On

June [redacted] or someone on her behalf went onto our

website and submitted a round trip reservation from [redacted] to

[redacted].

Enclosed is what we call our “payment page” This is what was shown to her prior to

booking the reservation. When a request

is submitted our website is designed to show travelers the least expensive

flights available between the two cities.

As you can see alternate dates were offered (see attachment 1).

She was also advised to “Please confirm

that the dates, times of flight departures and names of travelers are accurate,

tickets are non-transferable and non-assignable, name changes on tickets are

not permitted, ticket cost and service fees are non-refundable, all govt. and

our service fees and taxes are included in the total ticket cost, however, tickets mew be refunded within four hours

from the time of purchase at no coat and within twenty-four (24) hours of the

time of purchase with a fee.”

Once the reservation was confirmed a booking email was sent (see

attachment 2) which again advised that alternate dates were confirmed.

We would also like to advise the Revdex.com that [redacted] was contacted by one of our customer care supervisors. She informed our supervisor that she had traveled

on the tickets issued on the alternate dates.

We regret any confusion encountered by [redacted] but no other

refund or compensation will be offered since she elected to use the tickets

issued

We appreciate

the time and attention your office has given to this matter.

I have all the evidence of phone calls recorded and of them saying they onky called back so I wouldnt write a bad review I also have every picture where I was put on hold for almost 45 mins. I also was double booked through your site before proving their is a problem with your site and in response I had to use the tickets as. I already had hotels booked and as I stated I did not choose those dates. this company has been very rude on [redacted] and I have witnesses to confirm this everyytime I write a review on there page they erase it . they dont want customers seing what a bad company they are if they will not correct this matter I wiould like to continuethe process and file a lawsuit and get the media involved. this. company cares nothing about their customers as I have been one for years.

ive also included pictures of how they say theyre going to get back to u and I never heard anything even after a week

Review: I have booked flights for my dad with Cheapoair for several years now. Yesterday I got an error message that says I have an identical booking in your system and that I can’t book a flight from Quito to Cuenca on October ** at 9:55 a.m. and returning on April ** at 11:15 a.m.

This morning I called you agent at around 11:15 EST who was not able to help me at all. After a long wait I got transferred to a supervisor by the name of Armando in India who was the most arrogant person and totally unwilling to help.

1. He said that there is nothing that could be done and that the website price is wrong. He advised me that it takes about 4 hours for the website to be updated with the right price. When I advised him that this price of $123.18 Canadian has been on your website for the past week. He said he doesn’t know why and he can’t do anything about it.

2. I asked him to transfer to his supervisor. He said he can’t leave the floor to go get one.

3. When I asked him for his bosses name he said he can’t give me that.

4. When I told him that the website is saying I have an identical booking in the last 3 days and doesn’t allow me to complete my booking, he stated that there’s nothing that can be done about that.

5. I asked him to log a technical ticket to correct my issue, he said it can’t be done.Desired Settlement: I would like someone more senior to contact me about the error message that i'm receiving and for Cheapoair to honour their advertised price on their website.

Review: Their internet company CheapOair.com advertises refund on airfare within four hours of booking. We booked on Spirit with them, found a much better deal within minutes on US Air. Called back immediately to cancel original booking. We were given the run around and forced to call back many times. Then they told us to be patient for seven to ten days that it would be done but refused to send us anything in writing. This all took place on May [redacted] with followup calls on the [redacted]. Then on May [redacted] we found the had put the credit card charge through on our account. We again called and received more run around along with a statement that Spirit airlines was the only one that would not approve this refund. The refund was promised by CheapOair , we do have this in writing, yet they charged our credit card a day later. We are senior citizens on a limited income and two airline tickets are very costly to us and of course we do not like being scammed. It is very hard to talk to anyone, then when you finally get a person they are somewhere in India and are very difficult to converse with.Desired Settlement: We just want them to honor their contract for a free full refund if canceled within the four hour time limit

Review: My wife [redacted] made a booking online through this company's online gateway, [redacted] ("[redacted]")for her daughter (my stepdaughter) [redacted] to travel to Israel from Vancouver BC (Booking reference #[redacted]). A few days before [redacted] was due to return, the FAA advised airlines against flying to Israel, and many airlines, including [redacted]'s carrier, [redacted] cancelled outgoing flights from Tel Aviv because of rocket attacks. [redacted]'s return flight on July [redacted] was cancelled, and this is confirmed in press reports about airline cancellations at that time. [redacted] contacted [redacted] herself and asked for a new flight. She was told the only way that could happen is if the booking was cancelled. She was advised by the sales agent that she would receive a full refund of the airfare paid, which was around US $1700, and that she could rebook a flight. [redacted] should not have been allowed to cancel the booking herself, because the booking had been paid for by her mother, not by herself - our approach would have been to wait and to ask the airline to rebook her (which is what my wife and myself did for our own flights). [redacted] then wanted to use her mother's credit card details to rebook the flight, which caused her mother to contact [redacted], who again informed her mother that a full refund of over US$1700 would be made "within 7 to 10 days". There were issues using her mother's credit card, as [redacted]'s policy required contacted the bank in Canada, so I called to make a booking and purchased a new ticket for [redacted] to return to Vancouver (Booking reference #[redacted]) on my credit card, after again being reassured that a full refund of over US$1700 would be made. The reason we queried this matter so often is because we know that one-way air tickets often cost the same as return tickets, and we wanted to make sure that we were not going to be out of pocket. Finally, after her returned to Canada in early August, my wife called [redacted] to find out why she had not received her refund, and was told it would take "1 or 2 billing cycles". Eventually, she received a refund of US$789.62 and an explanation from [redacted] that this was all LOT airlines would pay.Desired Settlement: We would like [redacted] to keep the promise they made to us, and refund the balance of the cost of the original ticket to my wife. The reasons we believe they are liable are:

(a) [redacted]'s original ticket should not have been cancelled without the consent of her mother who paid for it

(b) [redacted] were acting as agents for Lot Airlines in this matter, and committed to making a full refund of the purchase price of the original ticket

Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

Sincerely,

Review: Beyond disappointed - getting furious now at the lack of basic "support" from the support department.

This whole crowd is based in India and NO ONE wants to take responsibility for anything. My wife has been trying for OVER A MONTH now with repeated phone calls to rearrange the booking times after one of the carriers cancelled a flight. We now have only 2 weeks left before the flight and we have got absolutely nowhere.

Every person she talks to says she needs to talk to someone else who then repeats the process or they will tell you they will call you back within 48 hours; this NEVER happens!

And every time, the same questions are asked :

"I want to get a connecting flight on the same day and I don't care which day - how can we do this?"

"If we can do this, how much extra would I have to pay"?

"How come you don't even know how much penalty would apply if I gave up and cancelled the entire booking".

"How is it a flight cancellation of a carrier involves me having to call 10 times so far to get absolutely no answers whatsoever". Each phone calls takes at least 30-40 minutes and often over an hour to try and get past the initial "help-desk" staff and to someone who is supposed to be able to help, only to be told either they will get back to us (never happens) or we need to call back and ask for "x" department.These toll calls will soon add up to more than any savings we obtained by using this outfit!

A basic problem like this should NOT be in the "too-hard" basket.

If we booked through this company and the carrier chosen cancels their flight, how come it is OUR responsibility to try and convince them to change the bookings to suit a connected flight?Desired Settlement: Just to get either :

A connecting flight on the same day (any day within that week) as the initial carrier (which cancelled it's original flight).

To know how much it will cost extra if the change above is possible

To know how much it would cost to cancel the booking

Just to know anything actually.

My grand-daughter is currently under CPS in california and with her current situtation, there is no way possible that I would authorize such. I'm the primary account holder and contacted my bank via automation to obtain my balance and CheapOair deducted approximately $750+ from my account to secure this reseveration. I've contacted CheapOair and spoke with [redacted], & [redacted] who are all representative of this firm and was assured that the refund to my account w/in be 7 to 10 days and now it has been over two weeks. I've continued to call this agency at this point to inquire about the refund and I'm placed on hold, at most 30 mins with no representative to speak to. The alleged service was not provide and as I read CheapOair's portal, there is no mention of a restriction of refunds. This information was not mention until whom ever booked the fight was posted.

Response:

This is in response to the complaint received in reference to the above booking number. In her complaint Ms. [redacted] is requesting a refund for a ticket purchased via our website since she states neither she nor her husband booked this reservation.

On June **, 2013, Ms. [redacted] or someone on her behalf submitted a reservation request via our online website. Enclosed you will find a copy of what we call the “Payment Page”, it is a snapshot of what the client confirmed just before clicking “Book”.

Ms. [redacted] was contacted by one of our customer service agents regarding her complaint. The agent went over the information that was provided when the reservation was submitted. Ms. [redacted] advised that the only thing that was incorrect was the area code listed under the billing phone number. She also verified that the person listed as the traveler was her granddaughter.

Also in her complaint she listed the copy of the booking receipt that was sent to the email address listed when the reservation was submitted. Ms. [redacted] confirmed it was her email address.

When the information was submitted and before any ticket is processed the information submitted must be verified with the credit card holder’s bank. In this case it was a 100% match. If the reservation was not submitted by either Ms. [redacted] or her husband as stated, Ms. [redacted] needs to call the police to report the fraudulent charge. We will help Ms. [redacted] prosecute whomever comitted this fraud by cooperating with the police in any way we can.

Ms. [redacted] has been advised that once she provides a letter of hardship it will be submitted to US Airways refund department for consideration, since we are a travel agency; we are not authorized to waive any airline policy. The decision to refund all or part of the money Ms. [redacted] is seeking will be solely up to the individual airlines based on the information provided.

She was also informed that this is not a simple process. The airline can take up to 3 months to complete this process, and that we are doing everything we can to accommodate her refund request.

We appreciate the time and attention your office has given to this matter.

Sincerely,

Business

Response:

As Ms. [redacted] is responding to us directly, but copying the Revdex.comB, there will be a large number of rebuttals attached to this complaint. We would ask that these rebuttals not be counted as additional complaints or an unwillingness to resolve this case as we are working with Ms. [redacted] directly in an attempt to resolve this for her. We are advocating for her with the airline and have asked Ms. [redacted] to send us some supporting documents, which she has now begun to do.

We would ask that this complaint be closed for now until the final answer from the airline is received.

Thank you,

Consumer

Response:

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# [redacted], and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:

Review: I booked a flight from Cheapoair in November 2013. Cheapoair, in March 2014, said my flight was changed by the airlines and hence they had to reschedule my flight. They told me my options were to either take the changes made, or request a refund. I had since called cheapoair at least 7 to 8 times, being put on hold for 45 to 75 minutes each time to try and cancel and get a refund. The rescheduled flight times are not acceptable to me. However, each time I try to cancel and demand for a refund, Cheapoair keeps telling me they will contact me in 3 or 4 business days. Each time I call, a different person answers the phone, and each person tells me something different.

I am sick of waiting and being sent from one department to another department, getting me nowhere anyway. I just want my money back, and to never ever use this website again. As a customer, I deserve the right to get the product I paid for. They are making excuses after excuses.Desired Settlement: I just want my money back and an explanation to why they took so long to process this.

Response:

Dear [redacted]:

This

is in response to the complaint we received regarding the above referenced

booking number. In her complaint [redacted]

is requesting a refund due to Malaysia Airlines’ schedule change.

On April **, 2014, [redacted] was advised that we have submitted all necessary information

to the Airlines Reporting Corporation (ARC) who handles airline

ticket distribution who

in turn sent it to the appropriate airline for final approval in the amount of

$1,301.70 based on the fare calculation when her original ticket was

issued. At this point there is nothing further

CheapOair can do to expedite this refund.

Once submitted to the airline, they have up to 60 days to comply and the

refund will be processed back to the original form of payment used when the

reservation was submitted.

On

April **, 2014, our records indicate that the balance of $13.95 was processed

back to her Visa ending in [redacted]. This

process may take between 10 -14 business days before it may reflect back to her

account.

We

regret any confusion or frustrations encountered by [redacted] and are requesting

that this compliant be closed and remove this from our file since that is a

service related issue based on an airline schedule. .

We

appreciate the time and attention your office has given to this matter.

Sincerely,

Review: I was led on with an Cheapoair agent telling me I could get a refund for a changed flight, which was changed within 3 hours. They, Cheapoair and United Airlines, alternately kept me on the phone for hours without a 3 way concerning my refund. The airlines were also dishonest in telling me that I used a third party (CheapOair) so therefore they would not refund my $950.00. Firstly, Cheapoair said they would refund half, then secondly after dealing with United's refusal, they could not refund because of their policy regarding cancelations and flight changes. My request was to revert to my original flight. During my 3 week trip I emailed Cheapoair's email contact, with no reply. Today, May [redacted], 2014 I called the customer service of Cheapoair which allowed me to speak with an agent. After our conversation introductions and understanding the nature of my complaint he blamed the airlines, said he would do a 3 way with United Airlines but only, put me on hold for almost an hour. Then the call disconnected, the agent told me "if we get disconnected can I have your call back number?" which I gave him. He returned one immediate disconnect. But after the long wait for the 3 way call with myself, Cheapoair and United Airlines, the call ended in a disconnect without the ability to call back. Every attempt to call back has been blocked with the exception of 2 of which the auto reply states, "an agent is unavailable". Of course I am attempting to call even after filing with the Revdex.com. Both United Airlines and CheapoAir travel agents accused each other of lying and have handled my complaint like a ping pong ball. You should warn consumers of their dishonest dealings. Businesses, no matter what their refund policies and rules, should deal honestly with consumers and not play these mind and phone games. I will encourage my frequent flying friends and family not to use Cheapoair or fly with United.Desired Settlement: I would like a refund, the company knows the amount they took $950.00.

Dear Sirs:

This

is in response to the complaint we received regarding the above referenced

booking number. In her complaint [redacted] is requesting a refund in the amount of $950.00 that she was required to

pay to make changes to her reservation.

On

December **, 2013, [redacted] or someone on her behalf went on our website and

submitted a round trip reservation from Nashville, Tennessee to Oslo,

Norway. The reservation was booked

without the assistance of one of our Customer Service agents; it is the

responsibility of the person making the reservation to make sure they read all

necessary and important information.

Prior

to submitting her reservation [redacted] stated that she had read and understood

our Terms and Conditions. Listed under CANCEL AND EXCHANGE

“All airline tickets are 100%

non-refundable. In certain cases where the airline may allow cancellations,

a credit may be valid towards a future ticket purchase by the same traveler

with travel on the same airline. An applicable penalty and a fare difference

(if any), will be added in these cases. Usually the credit issued by the

airline supplier is valid with time constraints and a specific expiration date

and should be discussed with a customer service agent. All such bookings where

the cancellation may be permitted must be cancelled prior to the scheduled

departure time of the first flight segment by calling our customer service

center. We do not guarantee any cancellation. A cancellation fee of $50 per

Response:

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# [redacted], and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:

I was not requesting a refund of the original ticket made on Dec **, 2013. I am requesting a refund (of the changed flight fees) because I was told by an agent, when I called to change back to the original flight that I could get at least half back. I am requesting a refund also because of how this company's agent said they would put me on hold to talk with the airlines to resolve this matter and that if we got cut off they would call me back. This agent never intended to call me back, just as the first agent was dishonest about getting half of the $950. back. The public needs to be warned of dishonest phone practices. How does a company put you on hold tell you they will call you back then does the very opposite along with blocking your return calls. I intend to make this public so the next unsuspecting customer will know what he may have to deal with.

In order for the Revdex.com to appropriately process your response, you MUST answer the question above.

Sincerely,

Business

Dear Sirs:

This

is in response to the complaint we received regarding the above referenced

booking number. In her complaint [redacted] is requesting a refund for the amount she authorized to change her

reservation.

Prior

to submitting her reservation [redacted] stated that she had read and understood

our Terms and Conditions. Listed under CANCEL AND EXCHANGE

“All airline tickets are 100%

non-refundable. In certain cases where the airline may allow cancellations,

a credit may be valid towards a future ticket purchase by the same traveler

with travel on the same airline. An applicable penalty and a fare difference

(if any), will be added in these cases. Usually the credit issued by the

airline supplier is valid with time constraints and a specific expiration date

and should be discussed with a customer service agent. All such bookings where

the cancellation may be permitted must be cancelled prior to the scheduled

departure time of the first flight segment by calling our customer service

center. We do not guarantee any cancellation. A cancellation fee of $50 per

person per ticket must be paid to us at the time of cancelling the booking; we

retain this fee. The credit will be held for a limited time period, please ask

the customer service agent for the specific date by when you must use this

credit or you will lose the credit amount. When you are ready to make the new

booking, you will have to the pay fare difference (if any), applicable airline

penalties for that fare and OneTravel.com exchange fees. All such changes are

governed by the airlines' rules and regulations and are out of our control.

OneTravel.com does not provide any representations or guarantees on changes or

fees. If you are cancelling the booking and applying for a refund please read

our Refunds Policy. Read more about our Change Policy if you wish to exchange

the tickets for new dates or routing.” Any and all changes made to the itinerary

our customer service department requesting that her reservation be changed. Prior to making any changes an email was sent (see attachment) advising the new

flights and what the additional cost would be to make the changes. Once authorization was received the changes

were made, her tickets exchanged, and her credit card was changed. Once

the changes were completed the amount she authorized became non-refundable in

this case the $950.00.

We

regret any confusion or frustrations [redacted] encountered but no refund will

be offered since she was advised what it would cost to change her reservation

which [redacted] did authorize.

Review: This company charged me $600 in ticket change fees but didn't change my tickets, they issued new ones. In Feb. 2014' we had to delay leaving St. Louis because my twins were sick and couldn't fly. [redacted] was instructed by me to change all 4 of the original tickets knowing I would be charged and then refunded by United $800. I had paperwork from the ER in St.Louis so I knew I would be refunded. At first the company told me they were waiting for response from United. I called United April [redacted] and they said there wasn't any claims filed so [redacted] lied about making a claim. I made the claims that day with United myself. I was refunded for my ticket but not my children $600. Several months, calls and hours on hold, [redacted] reps. told me my children were issued new tickets instead of changing them as I had asked. They would refund my $600 ASAP. That was 2 months ago. I filed a complaint with Consumer Affairs. This prompted [redacted] to email me and say they would"look" into my refund. They have all the notes from all the calls I have placed but they sent a request to United for the refund of tickets that were never changed. They have had several months to correct their error and refund my $600. This company has given me the run around since Feb. so it has been 6 months and still no refund. The mere fact that they contacted United again just proves they will do anything to delay paying me back the money they already charged on my credit card 6 months ago.Desired Settlement: They need to refund my $600 on my Discover Card. That is the card they charged me change fees on even though they didn't change my tickets.
