Booked a flight from Birmingham to Aberdeen return, on confirmation, I realized that I had made an honest mistake on the return flight (needed to amend my return date), I phoned the customer service (10min after the booking and 48hrs before I was supposed to fly) only to be told the additional charge for the amendment was £227 which was more expensive than the original return ticket, when I told them it was unacceptable and wanted a refund, I was given the usual T&C and that it was not refundable.

So now someone else will get my seat as I can no-longer fly which means they get double profit - for me it's not about the money but rather the principal, it amounts to day light robbery, while I cant fault the staff, the Cheapoair policy is a joke. Penny wise pound foolish... never again will I book through you.

Btw - I went to the airline direct who was willing and refund me the cost of the airline ticket, at least they take customer satisfaction more seriously... I will be booking directly with the airlines in future definitely not Cheapoair... should change your company name to Cheaposervice...

CustomerService C. – CheapOair Rep

The booking the customer purchased the rules of the ticket are non refundable, no changes allowed. The ticket has very restrictive policy due to being an economy ticket, these policies are also mandated by the individual airlines, and does mention in our terms and conditions. Customer booked the flights online, and chose these particular dates. Our escalations team has tried to speak with the customer and has no success. We did leave a call back message, and no call back from the customer to discuss the options.

Select a Seat. When selected, $9.00 was added to price?
