“DREADFUL company to deal with. I had to cancel prepaid package holiday due to medical reasons in lockdown, they sent an email confirming cancellations and I would receive a full refund in 10 days then nothing. You cannot reach them on the phone, they just send the same email confirming my cancellation, but do not issue a refund the money. I fear they are about to go into bankruptcy and no one will be refunded. I am not in a position to lose that much money. Please do not book with them. I plan to now peruse this through ABTA.”

“First time using this company but NEVER, EVER again!! Booked November last year to go to Zante. Completed online in July to say that I wanted to cancel the holiday due to the virus ( I am at a vulnerable age) A message came up saying that I would be contacted within 5 working days. What have I had? NOTHING!!! I have tried phoning and they say opening hours are on their website - untrue. I have emailed with no response.”

“Never ever ever book with this co. They cancelled my holiday in March to the Caribbean for obvious reasons!! I was due to go in June . Endless emails letters going on my travel portal with TR 5 months of nothing , not a word . You can’t ring them they have put there phones off . Iv reported them to ABTA that’s a waste of time. They finally sent me an email last week my money will be in next week . Still not in the bank . They are a disgrace to the travel industry!!! They need there travel licence removing . Iv been told today this company is connected the emmerets group .”

“What customer service there is none, phone lines down for months they don't answer E Mails even raise it through online booking and its ignored updates on Facebook are a load of rubbish too, yes there's a pandemic and we are all trying to be patient we just wanted to change the dates not even asking for a refund and still nothing. How this company is getting away with this appalling customer service is beyond believe and using the current situation to be able to be getting away with it, for the odd customer who got there holiday is great, but for thousands who have been totally ignored and no refund or change of dates is totally unacceptable, you must need a crystal ball to get through to this lot. Take my advice stay clear I will never use again”

“Customer service is absolutely diabolical. They post daily on Facebook which makes them appear to care. All we wanted to do is to transfer our booking to next year. No response, no emails, no communication. I will NEVER use this company again. I know things are tough at the moment, but feel their customers are being taken for fools. They have got £800 of my hard earned money. Really upset and frustrated with this company.”

“Due to fly tomorrow, we were asked to confirm weeks ago that we would like to change dates, which we did and also requested a credit note. Following that they have not responded once and we have just received a call from a women who was verging on abusive, who wouldn’t give her name or contact details and said she would call back in 20 minutes (she finishes at 5) for new dates or we would lose all our money.”

“Absolutely appalling!!!!! We contacted them over 17 days ago to inform them that the hotel they are sending us to will no longer be open, All we wish to do is change are accommodation!!! we travel in 12 days and they have still not contacted us!!!! They shouldn’t be still selling holidays during the current situation if they cannot supply new customers with the most basic of information and most basic levels of customer care That As promised on their website!!!”

“This is a follow up of a previous damning review about Travel Republic which I wrote, as I have sadly had to resort to using the Small Claims Court to try and regain my package holiday payment which Travel Republic were trying not to pay me. The reason that I know they were holding on to my money unlawfully, was that I booked the same holiday at the same time as close friends which was back in August of last year, with a departure in mid May this year. My friends paid by credit card, I paid by PayPal. They were refunded several weeks ago and we were not, nor did Travel Republic reply to any contacts that I tried to make to them, of which there were many. Our friends could have claimed there money back, if TR had not paid, via their credit card, but we could not, as our refund guarantee with PayPal expired after 6 months. Strange they got refunded and we didn't.... I started a Small Claim, which would have been served on Travel Republic, four working days ago, which included applying interest on the outsatnding debt and repayment of my costs, which they would also have to pay. Strangely enough, Travel Republic have immediately paid the outstanding debt to my PayPal account in full, thereby avoiding paying interest or costs. Travel republic have over and again declared online that they had paid everyone that is owed money up to date. This is fiction. It was pretty easy to open a Small Claim against them and I would urge anyone who's refund is overdue to do the same. For the sake of £35.00 and a little effort is it worth it?”

“Just seen on there Facebook page that lines are still closed cause they are calling all there customers in order of departure dates, more lies we was due to go away in June. Like every other review we have had no reply to E mails let alone a phone call it's got to be the worse holiday company I have had the misfortune of ever dealing with, never again”

“DON'T GO THERE!! Travel Republic cancelled our holiday back in April - 3 weeks before we should fly on 16th May. Like everyone else - i've tried multi messages via every portal possible and no response . No phone numbers available and no sign of any refund. I left a damning review on social media and they replied in 15 minutes saying that everyone had been refunded up to date. All lies!! I contacted them via their portal just over two weeks ago to advise them that if I didn't receive my refund I would use the Small Claims Courts to obtain it. Regrettably today I have been forced to do so. DO NOT USE THESE IMMORAL PEOPLE.”

“Appalling customer service. Was due to go on holiday 12th August. We cancelled the accomodation as we had decided ourselves we would not be going. However, flights had been cancelled. It doesn't show on their booking only on viewtrip. It appears that the flights may have been cancelled in March. They never notified us, even when we cancelled the hotel so we wouldn't have been going anyway. You can't get hold of them and they are not responding to emails. There is a schedule of when refunds are due. I'm hoping we'll get our flight money back.”

“All shocking in its ineptitude. No phones. Emails not answered. Quite happy to have arrive at a hotel miles away from home with accomodation voucher that reads "paid in full" and the hotel haven't been paid Worst company in the world.”

“Appalling company to deal with. They do not answer the phone. They do not reply to emails. What they do do is take your money and will not refund when the hotel is not even open. AVOID AVOID AVOID. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED !”
