“This service feels like a scam. They automatically activate the paid eDreams Prime subscription without clear consent, and charge €70 per year without any prior notification. There is no way to enable a reminder before the charge, so you only realize it once the money is already gone. The option to activate a payment alert simply doesn’t work.
Today I was automatically charged for the eDreams Prime subscription, and even though I cancelled it right after, they didn’t refund my money
As for the supposed “discounts”, they are minimal to nonexistent — definitely not worth the cost of the subscription. Be very careful when booking with eDreams. I do not recommend it.”
“Cancelled my return flight home with no explanation, then gave me another flight 1 week earlier cutting my trip from 3 weeks to 2 weeks, also I had a connecting flight which couldn't be changed so I had to book a hotel for the week to get my connecting flight home. They never offered any compensation, also took out travelling insurance with the booking and told it didn't cover this. Would never use them again.”
“Save yourself the headache – book directly with the airline.
- Booked a Ryanair flight via eDreams
- Received login credentials that led to an empty Ryanair account — no flight found
- Check-in was impossible online due to this error
- Spent 55 minutes on international calls with their support that cost me 30EUR
- Their own agents admitted it was eDreams’ fault (twice). Ryanair also confirmed the problem was on eDreams’ side
- Was forced to pay €30 at the airport to check in
- After all that, eDreams refused to refund me — copy-pasting excuses that had nothing to do with the issue
eDreams caused the problem, admitted it, then denied responsibility.
They sold a broken booking, cost me money, and wasted my time.
Save yourself the headache – book directly with the airline.”
“I was booking a flight for 308€. I submitted all my data, and the payment info. When I clicked to pay, as the purchase was being processed, eDreams launches a popup saying my trip has increased to 495€. I decided not to book as I find this a complete scam. And behold, a couple of hours later, I receive a marketing email reminding me to complete the booking for the initial price.”
“I booked a flight through eDreams and was automatically signed up for their Prime Membership, which costs £7.99 per month — something I didn’t knowingly opt into. I cancelled the membership via their website during the free trial, but was still charged the following month. When I called to query this, I was told I should have phoned to cancel, despite having used their online cancellation process. It felt deliberately misleading and left me out of pocket for a service I didn’t want. Although they eventually confirmed the cancellation, I still lost £7.99 for no valid reason.”
“Worst company I ever delt with it in my life. I booked with this horrible flight company, I got my confirmation, when I went to the airport my name wasn't on the list. I tried to contact the customer service but nobody helped me. I lost my flight ind I lost my money because they didn't give me the refund. They are robbery and unprofessional. Zero star is too much for them.”
“Totally disappointed with that service and didn’t recommended it!
I subscribed membership Prime and chooses the service Flexible Dates befits booking. I booked 2 flyights with EDreams and when I need to change one day to another (from 6 to 8 June) it was impossible !!!. They said you MUST change 2 dates .
But if you propose the Flexible dates (for this service you paid +) - you SHOULD change complete 2 dates!!! Because you make confused and lost the clients.
I’m very unhappy. So I go to website of avialines and bought new ticket.”
“I purchased a flight on eDreams for $210 with the “flexibility” option, which promised I could change the date for only $1. When I tried to make the change, they told me I had to pay an additional $205. I checked the same flight on Google Flights, and it costs $205 to buy it from scratch, with no extra fees or guarantees.
This proves that the “flexibility” offered is completely misleading and gives no real advantage to the customer.
I feel scammed and believe this is an abusive and dishonest practice.
I do not recommend eDreams for anyone who values flexibility or peace of mind when traveling.”
“If I could give negative stars I would. Enrolled in eDreams "prime" when buying a ticket without consent. Tried to cancel, thought I had. A year later I find out I'm charged for an annual membership fee AGAIN. Tried to cancel and get a refund - I still have no clue if they are going to try to charge me a 3rd time, or if I finally am actually out of this scam. BUYER BEWARE!”
“I watched my life savings vanish in three months because of this platform. Every penny I had worked for was gone.
Hope faded with each passing day. I felt trapped and had no way out. I reported the issue to Mrs Olivia in desperation. They listened and understood my situation. To my surprise, they took swift action. They launched an investigation and worked tirelessly to recover my funds. After weeks of uncertainty, the impossible happened. Mrs Olivia and her team successfully retrieved my money. It was a second chance I never thought I would get. Now, I can rebuild my finances. I am grateful for their help.”
“We booked to go to Benidorm through edreams which was Ryanair flight there & vueling flight back. With the Ryanair flight we had to scsn our passports through the edreams app to check in. Unfortunately this wouldn’t work after numerous attempts so when we got to gatwick on the day we asked the lady on the Ryanair desk to try it but she also couldn’t do it. The contact number for edreams on line doesn’t connect do there wss no way of getting in touch in time with edreams before we missed our flight so i had to psy £110 at the Ryanair desk to get our chek in & boarding passes. Edreams credited me £4 do I contacted them many times by email & was eventually told to give them 21 days to try & resolve the problem but haven’t heard anything. I have emailed edreams about this but they have totally ignored me & don’t respond. Stay away from edreams or use them at your peril. I certainly won’t be using them again!!!”
“I do not recommend this company to anyone. I booked a flight and a hotel for one night. The flight was canceled, and the hotel did not see the payment, I had to pay for the night again! They did not refund the money for either the flight or the hotel! Two months have passed, and there is zero help! The correspondence is long and pointless. They ask for all kinds of evidence, although they see everything in the receipts. Do not be fooled by the fact that they offer a few euros cheaper! After that you will have a lot of problems and will not want to communicate”
“I just booked a flight they changed the date that i have selected and increase the price by $350 when I receive the invoice. and won't accept my call since I ahve to deal with the airline directly... DO NOT USE THIS WEBSITE”
“I was charged €89.99 for an eDreams Prime subscription I never authorized. Despite providing all necessary details, customer service claims they can't locate the charge. I'm not alone—many others report similar unauthorized charges and poor support .
This is unacceptable. If you value your money and peace of mind, avoid Opodo and eDreams.”
“I wish I had read the reviews before signing up with them for the “free” trial Prime Membership. It would have saved me a lot of time,money and headache.
Stay clear of eDreams. there is not such a thing as “ free” with them, near impossible to cancel, and then to find out that the legitimate airline you booked with them doesn’t recognize them as a third line participate/ booking.”
“do not use EDREAMS!!!
3 Months Waiting for Refund – Still Nothing!!!
I have a prime subscription and booked a Wizzair flight (6 tickets) through eDreams that was cancelled over 3 months ago. Wizzair confirmed they issued the refund to eDreams on 21st February, but we have still not received it. We contacted eDreams support 100 times – via chat, email and have only received vague or generated responses. This experience has been exhausting, and we feel completely ignored.
This kind of delay and lack of accountability is unacceptable. We are now forced to take legal steps and report this company.
I strongly advise others to avoid using eDreams.”
“This was the worst travel experience of my life, all thanks to eDreams. Due to their booking failure, I was stranded at the airport for 3 days — with an infant and a child — without any assistance for accommodation, food, or even basic support.
After all this, their excuse? “The disruption was caused by a robot, which is beyond our control.” That’s not just absurd — it’s insulting. If your company uses AI systems, you are responsible for the outcome. Passing the blame onto a machine while families suffer is unacceptable.
Eventually, they rebooked us, but only after immense distress and no acknowledgment of the human cost. No compensation, no empathy, just a dismissive message claiming the case was “resolved.”
This company should not be allowed to operate without accountability. If you value your peace of mind, avoid eDreams at all costs.”
“Ik ben al jarenlang lid van deze service en betaal jaarlijks een aanzienlijk bedrag. Onlangs heb ik via hen een ticket gekocht dat zou moeten zijn met een gerenommeerde en duurdere luchtvaartmaatschappij. Tot mijn verbazing hebben ze, zonder enige kennisgeving, mijn ticket omgeboekt naar een veel goedkopere en kwalitatief slechtere airline. Sindsdien probeer ik herhaaldelijk contact op te nemen, maar er wordt niet gereageerd. Deze ervaring was buitengewoon teleurstellend en frustrerend. Ik raad anderen aan om zeer voorzichtig te zijn bij het kiezen voor dit bedrijf”
“Stay away. I booked my car rental 1 week prior to my flight for 48 euro, I paid in full, I paid the full insurance and then at the delivery point the Europcar charged me an extra hidden cost of 60 euros. If I was aware I would choose a different platform. Europcar informed me about the extra cost 2 hours prior to my flight. I asked for refund and they both refused even that the EuropCar admitted than the informed late due to heavy workload.”
