“I have been trying to contact them for months. They one minute response then you can't get another reply. Still don't know if i can get a refund when i should have been going this Saturday. My son has also had no luck trying to get hold of them as he is due to go to Dubai for his 30th in November but needs to swap due to covid. Absolutely rubbish service which is sad as before covid they were ok. Travel republic if you see this review please fo your job & reply D Rathbone & D Rathbone”

“Cannot be contacted on the phone. Owed money for our July Holiday and yet to receive anything. Ryan Air have refunded the money to them over 2 weeks ago and still awaiting payment. To make matters worse they have closed my complaint as resolved!!”

“Their telephone message says the office is closed, no matter what time you call. My daughter is having trouble with them, so I've suggested she contact ABTA and see what they can do about the company. May also be worth contacting Emirates, who are the owners of the company. If you've paid for your booking via credit card, get the credit card company to sort things out. Can't believe how bad this company is and how they have the nerve to say they're ABTA and ATOL protected.”

“Dreadful non response from TR as requested customer support in July and still no response. Due to fly less than a week and no contact from TR even though TR promise to contact everyone flying within 7 days of flight. Totally irresponsible actions of dealing with customers.”

“We decided not to travel in March 2020 after covid-19 Government warnings and a total lack of communication from TR. Tens of calls and emails later, on the 15 June 2020 I was told they had managed to recover most of my refund, i.e. parking, hotel, transfer, only the refund from Easyjet was outstanding and this should be concluded within a week. I was told this on the phone by a male representative whose name I will not note here at present, he advised me to call back within a week if I had no communication from TR. To date I have had no kind of refund. I have since made endless more calls and emails. TravelRepublic have ceased answering their phones and do not reply to emails. Q. Are they still operating?”

“Don't book with Travel Republic, absolutely zero communication. Booked in December 2019 for July 2020. No contact whatever re updates to our package. Website said we would be contacted prior to booking to outline options but nothing. Our flights are cancelled not that they let us no and all now still no refund or updates.”

“If I were able to score a minus that would indicate how I feel about this company. Booked in January for a trip to Italy a few days ago. I was thinking of cancelling and contacted them in August several times via phone but no response. I messaged them as directed and it took them almost 4 weeks, (ironically a few days before my flight), to respond to the SEVERAL messages I had left. Therefore, left no option but to travel otherwise lose a considerable amount of money. There were other incidents that occurred with this agency which I am now looking into being recompensed for i.e. I didn't get what I paid for, plus they cancelled my accommodation and return flight a day into my stay. I am not sure how this company is continuing to operate, their customer service is NON EXISTENT and their whole ethos seems to be to scam their customers. NEVER EVER will I book with these people again (if they're still in existence in months to come) and I urge others to think VERY CAREFULLY before doing the same. Absolutely appalling!”

“The worst company in booking holidays and trips. I booked with them without checking the reviwes (I know my mistake, but will not do it anymore) and ended up without holiday and lost money. We booked our trip for beggining of September, in July they contacted us to say that our hotel has been changed and to tell them if we want to go or, if no they could cancel for 100% refund as long as it's cancelled 7 days before the trip, I replied to their email not even 30 mins later, and they never came back to this email. In August they sent me another email saying that now we can go and hotel will be kept (after 3 weeks they are saying I can go, after I changed my plans already and took another tickets for a flight to visit my family), I replied to this email the same info, that I want my refund, they never answered neither this or another email. So my trip is closer and closer, and 2-3 days before my trip they called me asking if I'm going or no, of course I said no, first of all I had already another plans and second I didn't feel safe to travel in the pandemic time (I mentioned that in the emails as well). I asked again the lady on the phone about my refund, and she said that she is afraid but I CAN'T get my refund because it IS LESS THAN 7 DAYS before my trip, so she can't do anything. SO GUYS, DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME AND YOUR MONEY WITH SUCH A RUBBISH COMPANY, DON'T KNOW HOW THEY STILL HAVE GOOD REVIEWS. Good luck and stay safe. P.S. I forgot to say we tried to contact them on the phone numbers provided on their website, but it was just a waste of time.”

“Travel Republic have displayed a level of incompetence this beggars belief. Ignore customer requests for months (promise 48hrs turn around) no way of contacting them with issues. Telephone lines give opening times not true. Just started contacting this week obvious that they have not looked at any customer requests and even after paying money 7 days previously they said I urgently needed to pay. Off to Turkey this Tuesday really worried will have nowhere to stay. Please heed my warning avoid this company like yhe plague you have been warned.”

“Had holiday booked and they advised to contact them 3 days in advance. So I emailed them. As I had an outstanding query I could not cancel my hotel. 5 emails and 6 weeks later I have not even had an automated acknowledgement of my email. They advise visit our website to contact us. This advises opened 8-8. When you call at any time it says our offices are now closed. They have put cancelled beside my booking the day after I was supposed to check in. I have no idea if I will get a refund I was unable to cancel before I was meant to travel apart from the email I sent. I can’t express how disappointed I am in travel republic as I go on holiday 3-4 times a year and I always use them. NEVER AGAIN!”

“Travel Republic are a sham. No phone operating; surely people can and are working from home with this company. Its a disgrace. I'm trying to cancel a booking with them for 2 weeks now but no reply. I would discourage people from booking with this sham of a company. People need reassurance in these worrying times; not more worries as to whether a company has the desent manners to answer queries.”
