“Hi
I did booking the other day while doing the payment, website was crashed and the payment was deducted from my account. I was worried about my booking then next morning Victor Price emailed me by himself raising this problem to me and acknowledge the payment and resolved my problem professionally and in timely manner.”
“I left the following review on another website and TravelUp reported it!
BA Flights cancelled in mid March. This company has failed to advise me of this or acknowledge my emails. If they do ever get round to me, I hear they have changed their T&Cs in February to try and get out of refunding customers. I will never buy flights through an agent again. I learned the hard way with Travel Up. Do not use this company. Bunch of thieves.”
“They left us stranded in Hong Kong in Feb, before any travel bans. No help whatsoever offered. Since then we request a flight refund through them from the airline but have never heard from them again. Phone lines are cut, no replies on social media and only generic email responses. Robbed us and hundred of other customers of our legally owed refunds.”
“SCAMMERS!
They will take your money and leave you out to dry.
I wish I read these reviews prior to booking with them.
If there is a collective action against them please feel free to contact me.
Because Travelup missed the word "Light" on my booking I ended up having to pay the airline an amount equal to my ticket at the airport. Thavelup never bothered replying back to me.”
“In the same boat as many others here, waiting for a refund that I am entitled to according to the airline on a flight that was cancelled. TravelUp aren’t responding to me. Join the Facebook group TravelUp Covid Response - there are many of us waiting on a refund or just an answer from this company and we are comparing notes and supporting each other”
“If I could give the no stars I would. Travel Up are an absolute disgrace. I have waited over 88-days for a refund from this company. TU sent me an e-mail on the 06/02/2020 stating that I was entitled to a 'full refund' which I would receive within 6-8 weeks. I am still waiting for the refund. Many, many people have been scammed by this company in the last 4-months.”
“DO NOT RISK YOU MONEY with this swindling company as it will only bring you pain and hassle which they should not be rewarded for!
I booked a return trip to Geneva for early April through Travelup with British Airways that was cancelled by the Airline due to grounding their flights because of COVID 19.
I have tried to speak with Travelup, sent several e-mails that were ignored and then used their recommended enquiry form twice to no avail.
I reached out separately to BA who were very responsive and sympathetic and who informed me they have refunded my ticket but this had to go to Travelup.
Since then and a further enquiry form calling this out there is still no communication from them apart from the generic FAQ e-mail which appears to be trying to discourage applying for refund via my credit card who I also spoke with and was advised they can pursue the refund if I wish two weeks after the flights if Travelup still have not responded.
Screwing your customers during this crisis is not a long term sustainable business model especially when we know the airlines gave our money back to you!
Being a UK company based in Berkshire means you can't hide so don't be surprised once the lockdown is revoked when angry customers turn up to expose your lack of business ethics.
Do the right thing and pass on the refunds!”
“Not happy with this company. Having booked flights which are cancelled due to the current situation, Travel Up are refusing to fully refund the cost of the flights. In fact they are trying to reduce the amount refunded by £200 and saying that the refund will not be paid for 7-10 weeks. This is an absolute disgrace. I have used this company before and thought they were reputable. Clearly they are not interested in their customers, despite British Airways offering full refunds and vouchers on their website. Having not accepted their unreasonable request, they are now not responding to my emails. I would not recommend using them, plenty more companies out there who are doing the right thing.”
“This is disgusting. Phone lines shut down, from the reviews below my experience isn't unusual. I have sent multiple emails, filled out two online enquiries as requested, cannot call as phone lines are shut down (tried many times, some phone lines you need to pay 10p/min for!) Feel like I have been robbed. No acknowledgement of the 240 pounds of mine they have. My flight has come and gone and I've been trying for weeks to cancel or change. TravelUP has handled this terribly.”
“Travel Up, you can't hide forever!
Come out and respond to your clients and give needed advice and support like the airlines are doing.
Surely you are a middleman and paid our monies to the airlines, from whom you will get a refund?”
“Due to the Corona virus we recently had to cancel our trip to Monterey due to our physicians advise and government issued travel restrictions regarding non-essential travel. As you guys are aware the Corona virus was something that none of us expected.
Most major Hotel and airline chains made adjustments to their individual booking policies to give their clients extra peace of mind during this period. They waived change fees and offered full refunds on all reservations even those described as Non-Cancellable. Travel Up did not refund any of our fees despite the unexpected events. In addition I tried calling on several occasions to speak with a representative and did not get a live person. Very unprofessional. I do not recommend using this site.”
“We too booked with Travel Up and they just stopped responding. Not sure how to get the refund. web site as well no information and they number not get through.”
“AirChina flights booked with Travelup. AirChina issued guidance following coronavirus outbreak that we could apply for a full refund (no penalties etc.) but that this had to be done by the travel agent. Travelup confirmed they had applied for the refund and it would take 6-8 weeks. 8 weeks later and still no refund received! Now they are not responding to any communication from me! I realise this is a stressful time for everyone but absolutely shocking customer service from Travelup. Will never book with them again.”
“Avoid avoid avoid. This company has complete stopped all communications with customers yet has their money. Cannot get any response from them via any means. Ali Shah, where is all the money?”
