Cheapflights

I booked 2 months in advance and upon check out it offered financing through Uplift. I booked it and got financed and 3 days before the flight, Cheap Flights canceled the booking and I'm still paying on Uplift. I had to scramble and book another flight. Do NOT use them

I just spent two hours checking many of Cheapflights.com providers and found the majority on BBB's scam tracker. Airfare.com (aka Openairfare.com) SkyHikes, Bestairfares.com are all scam websites that should be avoided. Cheapflights should not be trusted because they are promoting these companies.

Cheap flights might have real companies on there site but they do not care if they have scamers advertise either just beware you are better off going to priceline or the airlines site do your homework cheap flights is a hot bed of scam travel agencies that will steal your money. ( bestticketfair.com or bestair.com or any company that needs to call you first) lock your card! Dont let them bully you into higher rates. Please...please stay away..

One star is too good for these crooks (Bestticketfare through Cheapflights). Bought a ticket Sat morning for a Tue morning flight my wife had to be on for a family emergency. After repeated phone calls from me and lies and stall tactics from Cheapflights, we still don't have a ticket or conf. Number just hours from the flight. Now to buy the ticket direct through the airline like I should have to begin with, the price has gone up astronomically since it's last minute and few seats left. Cheapflights should be prosecuted for deceptive business practices. They have greatly hurt us. Beware. Ripoff artists and lying scumbags. They have all my cc info for the payment and I have nothing to show for it.

DO NOT BOOK THROUGH CHEAPFLIGHTS, IT'S MORE MONEY. JUST FOUND OUT THE HARD WAY. BOOKED A FLIGHT WITH THEM AND THEY SAID THAT THE CHEAPEST PRICE WAS ON SPIRIT. BOOKED IT, ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT THEY CHARGED MORE THAN SPIRIT. I CALLED SPIRIT AND THEY TOLD ME THE SAME THING. NEVER GO THROUGH CHEAPFLIGHTS WE NEED TO START A CLASSACTION LAWSUITE IT'S A SCAM

Flight was canceled due to a hurricane. Called the airline they told me that we would have to call cheap flight directly, if we would have purchased a ticket directly from the airline would have credited our account that we could use in the future for future ticket. We purchase our ticket through cheap flight in cheap flight wanted to charge me additional funds to change my flight and then went and blamed the airline for the policy that they had to do that which I know it's not the airlines policy to do that because I just got off the phone with them. Don't purchase through them, money lost such a scam

Twice I have tried to book with them and both times they have come back to me and told me if I wanted to continue with my booking it was going to cost hundreds more they say it is the airlines fault I have booked hundreds of flights with several other booking agencies, and never had this problem before

Bought tickets. They called 3 days later to say they could not honour the flights an I would have to pay 1500 more or wait a week for a refund. Stay away from this site. Very dishonest.

Found tickets online for $559, booked the flights only to be called back by an operator to inform me that they couldn't honor the price they had online. They then proceeded to tell me I had to Pat $200 over the online price. I refused the offer for them to tell me it would be a $50 charge per person for cancelling a flight they couldn't honor. Spent 40 mins. Arguing with a a man that could barely speak English and continued to talk over me. Terrible customer service and very dishonorable site. It's a SCAM! I will be reporting to the BBB.if I could leave a -2 review I would

Throughly review the travel agencies they provide because a lot
Of them are scammers who will not refund you and leave you stranded places with children

I got to the airport and my flight was suppose to take off at 11:47am, Frontier delayed til 4, then delayed til 7, then delayed til 5am the next morning! I am mad as hell, then they talking bout they wasn't giving food vouchers and would reemberce you if you got a hotel. I sat at that dam airport from 9:30am til 10:00pm. I came home the delays are ridiculous! Then they act like they can't change your time and I know they can, I'm about fed up with cheapflights and Frontier Airlines! Then the lady give me this number to call *******000 and someone text back

It took three days to get my reservation code - then the day before I was to fly out I discovered they had canceled my flight and never notified me. Do NOT use this outfit. They are awful.

I booked a flight, payed extra for seats and was not able to chose seats. Was told to wait until boarding day. Customer service agent was rude and did not help. Never again. Avoid them at all cause.

A total scam company that gives fake cheap flights, charges you for them then tells you that they're only "provisional" and it was your mistake. They then try to sell you different flights much more expensively.

After booking you'll get badgered on the phone none-stop telling you you need to sort out the booking. It's disgraceful.

Currently on hold to my bank to have the charges cancelled.

------------------

Okay so I managed to get our money back. These guys are real nasty bullies - they will tell you that if you don't buy an upgrade (i.e a real flight) you'll lose all your money. This is a lie.

If you get scammed by this company ring your bank and explain about the charge. It will be in "pending" in your account as they will only charge you for an actual flight. My bank couldn't cancel a pending transaction but they did issue a notice to cheapflights to either cancel or charge the amount. If they charged it then we could claim a refund...although it takes 15 days. Also they put a block on them ever charging us again.

What these scammers want you to do is buy a flight with them in panic and through bully tactics. I think it's disgraceful that this can happen - but hopefully this may help anyone who uses them like we did

(Note: I copied this from my trustpilot review)

We purchased a flight with the above bookino on g reference online and we were sent an email that stated we would recieve confirmation within 48 hours

I rang to see why we hadn't recieved tickets and then were told we had brought a restricted ticket that had no baggage allowance no food and no seat allowance at this stage. And to top of off we were on stand by and that if we weren't successful and we couldn't use the money after the departure date towards another flight or be given a refund It never mentioned anything other than apparently reading the terms and conditions which you are banking on customers not reading this when they see a great price when booking, we were told in order to get an airline reference we would have to upgrade to a much more expensive ticket.

If this isn't a scam it's Borderline fraud. You have $3600 of our money, I purchased this in good faith thinking because it was a uk based site it would be safe and I'm stunned that you wouldn't alert a customer it's a restricted flight and to-please read the fine print prior to booking

What I want is a refund as we can't fly on these tickets with no baggage food or seats and can't afford to upgrade.

What can you offer?.

To update the situation we have now had to pay an extra $2000 to up grade and be guaranteed our seats

I will endeavour to find all travel sites and let them know never to use this company as what you offer is false misleading and designed to trap you.i could have booked direct with Emirates and had a cheaper flight. I would like the difference back of what we originally paid compared to the new ticket refunded

Paid extra for refundable tickets, when I tested positive for COVID-19 I needed to get a refund for my booking, they absolutely REFUSED even though I paid extra for refundable tickets! DO NOT USE THIS SITE!

Here we go, had flight from Toronto to Vancouver I waited for flight for around 6 hours there were keep asking that flight got delayed I waited there like nothin nd then got meassage that your flight us cancelled said we are really sorry and said we can refund the while cost with extra 30 dollars then I try to get with manager that person wasted our 1 hours on hold then said sorry we can't do anything nd said you are out of time to get refund I was like what the hell he is talking THEY ARE THE SCAMMER STAY AWAY FROM THEM PLZ

Please don't waste your time they will give you the cheapest price online the. They will call you for way higher price and will give the dumbest excuse ever
