Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because: While I can appreciate your attempt at keeping information safe, I assure you that you have not looked into this matter fully I see in your response that you have referred to me as Ms., meaning that I am female As I would have to be to become pregnant It has been brought to my attention that the recording you all have of this conversation on 01/27/was a male caller The only phone call I made to Orbitz was in fact on 02/24/2016, well after the fact that you all had my reservation canceled I do not believe that you have fully investigated this matter and would like all recordings pulled I also DID NOT receive any email notification that I needed to provide any sort of follow up In fact the person I spoke to on 02/24/stated that it may be in my junk mail Now I ask you, why would all other emails come directly to my mail box and this "supposed" notification of medical proof go to my junk mail You all have perfected the art of talking circles around your customers until they simply walk away All I am asking is for this to be made right I am a single FEMALE, and I can provide whatever proof you need to prove that I am such, and that you all in fact did allow another party to cancel a reservation without my permission This just can not be acceptable I have had to go to great lengths and many hours to protect my identity and follow up with you all, with very little to NO response In fact, it has not been until I filed a complaint with Revdex.com that anyone has listened to me, much let take the time to respond I would like to also hear the recording on 01/27/that you all claim you administer to calls, as proof that you have in fact looked into this matter fully and completelyIt is extremely upsetting that all this could happen, and with no regard to myself or my experience Sincerely, [redacted] ***

Initial Business Response / [redacted] (1000, 5, 2015/06/11) */ Dear Mr [redacted] , The Revdex.com has shared your recent correspondence pertaining to the problems encountered during your travels due to the Visa requirementsI appreciate the opportunity to review your account and respond to your concerns It is my understanding that your wife did not have the proper entry documentation for your international travel, and she was denied boarding for the flight, so you both had to travel back to the United StatesYou believe Orbitz should have provided you with this information Mr [redacted] , prior to confirming your international reservation, we do advise that special travel documentation is requiredThere is a link available for you to review the required documentationThis link is also available on your itinerary, and can be reviewed at anytime via your "My Trips" International trips require special travel documentation for each traveler The Orbitz.com website has a specific link to [redacted] This website contains information about entry requirements for entry and transit into any foreign country, and return to the United StatesThe link to this website is: http://visacentral.com/passports.php?login=XXXXX On this link, you can enter the type of passport being held, and where you are traveling to, and it will advise if a Visa is needed or if there are other requirements that must be metWe certainly empathize with the inconveniences you encounteredHowever, we did provide access for you to review the requirements needed by the type of passport being heldPlease understand that Orbitz does not hold the funds for the tickets reserved, and we would not be able to grant your compensation requests Mr [redacted] , we wish our response could be more favorablePlease be assured that Orbitz values your business, and we hope you will provide us with a future opportunity to fully restore your confidence in our products and services Sincerely, [redacted] Orbitz Customer Relations Initial Consumer Rebuttal / [redacted] (3000, 7, 2015/06/11) */ (The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.) I still argue the point that though the Orbitz website advises to check for required travel documents it doesn't require that the information be accessed before allowing someone to purchase ticketsThere should be additional procedures in place to protect the consumer from making ill advised purchases If Orbitz truly values my business, why did they consistently fail to provide me a response for more than two months in regards to my concerns while they immediately responded to the Revdex.com the very next dayIf Orbitz genuinely desires that I provide them with a future opportunity to fully restore my confidence in their products and services, I would ask that they demonstrate leniency as I had originally requested by assisting me in recuperating a portion of my lost funds Sincerely, [redacted] Final Consumer Response / [redacted] (4200, 11, 2015/06/17) */ (The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.) I recognize that Orbitz does not have a legal obligation in this case, however, I will still argue that it is much too easy for an innocent customer to purchase airline tickets without full knowledge of the financial risks involvedAs we all know, the terms and conditions pages on most websites are often very wordy and lengthyBeing asked to check a box to indicate that you agree with the conditions may meet the legal requirements for the website but it certainly doesn't guarantee that the customer has been made aware of the risks involved in making the purchase I am still not clear why Orbitz is not willing to offer any leniencyOrbitz' revenue in approached billion dollarsA partial refund or travel voucher toward a future trip would have been a gesture of good faith that would have earned my continued loyalty as a customer I receive promotional e-mails from Orbitz on a regular basisI would like to kindly request that they remove my address ( [redacted] @juno.com) from their mailing list Sincerely, [redacted] Final Business Response / [redacted] (4000, 13, 2015/06/18) */ Dear Mr [redacted] , Thank you for your follresponse, and I appreciate the opportunity to respond to your continued concerns At Orbitz, we make every effort to make all terms and conditions as simple as possibly for our customers reviewPlease understand that Orbitz does not hold the funds for the airline tickets reserved, and we are just not able to offer a refund for the tickets Mr [redacted] , I understand that this is not the response you were hoping for, but we are unable to grant your requestThank you again for the opportunity to address your concerns Sincerely, [redacted] Orbitz Customer Relations

Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because: almost everything claimed in the response is incorrect! First, the last time that I called, I even mentioned the problem that I had with the trip, and didn't agree with the datesIf you take the time to listen to the call which you claim you record, you would be able to listen to thatSecond, while I did press the "accept" button on the confirmation e-mail, there are several problems with thatWhen I called to make sure my payment went through (I had encountered an "error" message for some reason), the person I spoke to on the phone informed me that I would receive an e-mail to confirm the PAYMENT, and that I had to click acceptI was never advised that this would confirmation the information on the emailSecond, the supervisor I spoke to advised me that I had clicked on the confirm button on the 21st, which is untrue, since I didn't open the e-mail until the 24thAgain, another lie and/or wrong information on your systemFurther, the e-mail with the information seems like it's built to trick people, since it has the option to click on accept BEFORE the information about the trip, which appears AFTER the button to acceptIf I'm not mistaken, there have been lawsuits by people against companies who used to do that, which is why now most companies force people to read the entire information, or at least scrow down the entire information before clicking the "accept" buttonThird, when I tried to check in, my last name, as well as my husband's last name were incorrect, and your system had changed them and put all of our last names togetherAgain, one more evidence that our information WAS IN FACT CHANGED either by your system or by one of your agents and/or employees.I was able to find extensive evidence online about other people's experience with your business, when they had similar experiences to mine, and had their information changed by your companyI'm pretty sure you sold me a ticket to a sold out trip, and as a result, instead of informing me about it, you just changed my trip without consulting meEven one of the employees from [redacted] said that although they couldn't change anything on the reservation because I unfortunately had it done through your business, he said that the reservation was strange and had several mistakes!
