Absolute crooks and liars. Lie Lie Lie from them and 15 months to reply and tell me my refund will be delayed. Oh really? They cancelled a non-existing connecting flight but you only get back the $554.00 because you could have taken the last flight costing $2,600. Yes, they cancelled only hours before and absolutely no way to find any other flights. Scammers, liers, crooks, incompetent, worthless people at kiwi.

Despite the airline canceling the flight (which kiwi wasn't aware of before i called) and the need to cancel and rebook the whole flight due to no other option being provided by the original carrier till the next day, kiwi would not refund the full ticket amount. Awful customer service and 4+ months in constant follow-up to get any resolution.

I wish I had read reviews before using this company. I can just confirm that I also got scammed and robbed of money that the flight company (norwegian) was happy to give back. I wonder what kiwi does with all the money they keep? Customer service is a joke, they speak poorly english so they didnt even understand my question. They didn’t show any intention of helping or to adjust their behaviour to make a better customer experience. Dont use them! Me and my relatives, for sure, will never use them again.

My carrier anticipated the return flight by 6 hours, destroying my last day of the trip, BUT the carrier offered Kiwi a refund writing to the email address the create for your booking (I know this because the airline confirmed it to me themselves, and other friends who booked the same flight directly with the airline got the refund). Although Kiwi policy says that, in such a case, FOR ALL FARES they will offer you the chance to take the refund or accept the change, THEY NEVER GAVE ME this chance and refused to give my money back. They insisted in treating my request as voluntary cancellation. So do not trust in what is written on their website, they will just rob you.

The worst experience ever! We purchased tickets in June for flights in November (Belgrade-Tenerife-Belgrade), then we had to choose paid alternatives due to airline changes (disputed was return flight). It would be ok, if it was the only change. A month before our flight, we had to choose another unacceptable paid alternative with over 25hours for the flight from Tenerife to Belgrade. At the same time, they had a better offer for new passengers than for us (flights which last about 8hours). Directly, I asked for that different offer and they were professionally avoiding the answer. Somehow, they accepted to allow me to REQUEST other alternative and refused my request, of course. We decided to find solution on our own and I requested a refund from the disputed airline directly. As Kiwi purchased tickets on behalf of us, they received a refund of $140.40 (I have proof of it - airline sent me). When I told them about it, they refused to get my funds back, so the conclusion is that they stole my funds! I have to mention, they were trying to offer me their assisted refund and they didn't offer me a refund with Kiwi credit (I'm whondering, why?!) There are a lot of details that happened during our "communication", but I don't want to go on too long. AVOID THIS SCAMMER PROVIDER!  P.s. Take a look on proof of refund by KLM directly. Kiwi knows that and they declined to get my funds back.

We were failed by Kiwi, who could not arrange for the paid cabin baggage with Ryan Air, after me having to pay double for a ticket, which was booked for the coming month by mistake. My wife and daughter were shamed and named by the miserable Ryan Airline while waiting to check in and had to endure unnecessary stress and pay again. Kiwi offered me a miserable Credit of 30 Euros to be used with Kiwi again. I will never again use Kiwi and will tell everybody to avoid you and Ryan Air in future. Thanks good there are alternatives to them!

Absolutely pathetic. Never ever book. They take 3-4 months for a refund even if airline makes changes and refunds instantly, and even after taking so much time, they only do partial refunds, after receiving 100% refunds from the airline. I myself spoken to the airline and even sent proofs/screenshots to kiwi showing that airline had refunded fully, but all fell to deaf ears as kiwi is so passionate about scamming customers.

I bought a ticket Pattaya-Dubai-Tel Aviv-Vilnius. I wasn’t allowed on board on a flight Dubai-Tel Aviv because the layover was too short (Kiwi sold bundles, connected tickets, so I trusted that they know regulations). Long story short, I spent 10hours stuck in Dubai, they sent me to Warsaw instead of Lithuania. I then had to buy a ticket from Warsaw to Vilnius at my own expense. You know what was Kiwi response? You guessed it - we cannot control carriers. :) even though they sell tickets and do not check layover times and regulations for them. Customer support is robotic, mechanic, zero empathy, denied everything, didn’t take any responsibility, left me alone solving my problems trying to return home, stuck in airport. At the end, all I asked was at least to refund money for that extra ticket I had to buy from Warsaw to Vilnius. Nope. Not gonna happen. :) Never again I will use this broker.

Just money grabbing company. They will only refund full amount (even if you cancel 2 weeks earlier), to Flexible ticket, which means you have to pay $40 extra just to have the ability to get funds back, any funds back. Now they will get refunded for my ticket by the airline, and sell another ticket, and just get my $210 as a gift for the horrible business they run. Stay away from this company! Milica

DO NOT BOOK WITH KIWI COM! My flight was cancelled due to weather in December. Although I purchased flight insurance, they simply cancelled my flight without the option of rebooking me. If I wanted to rebook it was going to cost me $5000! For a 5 hr flight, originally $1000 (xmas prices). The airline confirmed they had sent the refund to Kiwi.com two months ago and kiwi continued to deny they had received it. It is over two months now, and they have since disconnected their phone lines so there's no way of contacting them. I finally got confirmation that the refund is "being processed, but in a different department and there are many factors outside of their control so they are unable to give me a timeframe for when I'll receive the refund" The flight was $1000, I never took the trip and now I'm paying interest on my credit card, while Kiwi scams everyone, withholding their money for as long as possible. The worst company I have ever dealt with, they're corrupt, don't use them!

Awful service after buying tickets. I did book two flights from Madrid to Japan with reference number 304032883 for 1189€. The back flight to Madrid was cancelled without any reason, after that I tried to talk to them to change our cancelled flight for another one with the same company (ITA Arways) one our later, but they didn't offer me any solution. I'm still waiting for my money 4 monts later.

Kiwi.com just robbed us with $1465 for the trip we tried to rebook. This company is a total scam. They will take every penny you have and they don't care about their customers. PLEASE DO NOT BOOK OR BUY TICKETS WITH KIWI.COM. THEY WILL REAP YOU OFF.
