This relates to the reservations and land customer service and not onboard. My second booking with Brittany Ferries and the second very inconvenient rescheduling. I booked an early bird fare, five months in advance, Rosslare to Cherbourg to arrive in daylight as I have a long onward car drive. When they rescheduled, the offer was a refund or another date if the new times did not suit. I found that they have a sailing from Cork the next day, which suited better, which actually cost €13 less, so I asked reservations to change it for me. They agreed, but, but despite the lower fare, they refused to refund me the €13 difference. If I cancelled the booking, I could get a full refund and book the Cork leg myself, saving the €13! It took 4 days before reservations cancelled the Rosslare leg, by which time, the Cork fare had increased by €40. After several emails and telephone calls, they eventually gave me the sailing at the original fare, but not the €13 refund. I asked for a free gesture such as some meal vouchers or a cabin upgrade to make up for the inconvenience and extra petrol expense and this was flatly refused. The website says the Salamanca ships offers a “cooked ENGLISH breakfast”, on a France-Ireland sailing, however as the ship arrives at 6AM, the restaurant is not open! Now, two weeks before travelling, I discovered the price of the outbound sailing and cabin have dropped by €71. I wrote to Brittany's customer services for Ireland-France, based in England! They have a 28 WORKING DAY response time, presumably due to a massive amount of complaints. After a long wait, I received a partial response and a flat refusal of any refund,or gesture. The attitude and lack of any willingness to help or retain customer goodwill from senior agent Charlotte Murray was despicable. She is a disgrace to her profession. She hid behind the company’s terms and conditions and simply did not care about the customer. While Brittany Ferries prices are good, I am very reluctant to trust them again as their land based customer service is terrible. Perhaps the ships and crew will be better.
