They don't give you options, just tricky options so when you click there's no turning back.
I wanted to cancel a flight within 48hrs from 600€ they told me on chat they could refund me 160€ in ticket voucher.
Scam.
Not worthy guys. Don't you dare be like me.
Under no circumstances deal with this company. They took our money and when we needed to make a cancellation five months in advance of the holiday, they said the flights were not refundable not even for the baggage to be stored in the hold of the aircraft! We were not told this at the time of booking. A letter of complaint to their office in Richmond, Surrey (as shown on line) was returned GONE AWAY. Says it all.
Easy to book but not so easy to check in on line called customer service but she had a thick Spanish accent and spoke so fast I could not understand her. Checked in at the airport in Amsterdam which was very easy and quick. Although the flight was delayed by 30 minutes we were kept well informed of the problem.
Rang them up to explain there was a mistake. The chap said, all he could do was give me a credit note. I explained the situation again, again sorry all we can do is give you a credit note. To use back on their web page. I then said ill speak to Pay pal as that who I paid through. He then cut me off. Great customer service. Not.
Now going through PayPal and bank to cancel this whole crazy ordeal never use never go near. Cancel their web page from you google.
I booked through Lastminute.com a return flight which was later cancelled by the airline due to a schedule change.
I contacted their customer service and they promised to refund the whole amount. But later they kept for them a 20 euro processing fee (for some unknown reason...). It is over the 15% of the amount I payed for the flight...!
I tried to contact them various times to ask for further details but I have only received a couple of emails with no meaningful replies and then they stopped to reply.
Hidden processing fees + misleading and poor customer service = STAY AWAY FROM THEM!
Lastminute.com should not be used under any circumstance. Very dishonest company!
I have no idea how they can legally operate in the manner in which they do.
Please folks dont get burnt with LastMinute.com It must be avoided. I also have been told that expedia.com is in fact the owners of lastminute.com
So it best to avoid them both.
Expedia.com and Lastminute.com is the same company. Please avoid. If i could give zero stars i would have done so.
I booked an apartment in The Grand Mill, Bradford, for the nights of 4th and 5th May 2019. When I telephoned at about 4.45 pm, it was to find there had been a double booking and I was moved to a student accommodation block which had a minute, en suite bedroom and a shared kitchen, which lacked most everything by the way of cooking and eating, including forks and drinking glasses; big pans; vessels in which to microwave produce; dessert spoons and bowls. I was told that all the 'apartments' had a shared kitchen but this was not what was advertised on the website, or confirmed as being the case on my booking confirmation email. It quite spoiled my activity on the Sunday. Looking at the website now, it gives different prices and makes it clear which is an apartment and which is a bedroom with a shared kitchen. I wish to complain to lastminute.com but can find only a continental, telephone number and no email address. I intend taking this matter further as misrepresentation.
This company and its subsidiary booking.com are misleading in their promotions and take no responsibility for resolving issues. I have travelled extensively for 40 years and my experience with them has soured me for good. I would NOT use Lastminute.com OR booking.com again even if I was desperate. AVOID AT ALL COST
This company is awful! My flight was cancelled many times last November. They never gave me any answer of my refund. I called them trying to get an answer about this matter, and they just told me that the airline is responsible to give the funds back. They do not anything about customer service... Worst company ever!
The worst experience I've ever had! Avoid it at all costs, even if you have to pay twice the price for your tickets. They canceled my booking two months after my reservation, claiming that the airline had no alternative flights, despite the airline confirming the opposite. All they tell you is that the system won't allow them to do anything. I ended up having to pay three times the price for my ticket. And now, after three months of sending numerous emails requesting a refund, they are offering me options to credit my account instead of providing a refund.
Very bad service, I requested a change on flight date so my Mom could flight with my grandmother (as she cannot flight alone) and took one month to send me an answer.
The price of changing the flight was more than 824 Euros (just the way back). I checked in the airline and the price was 408 Euros! More than double the price, awful service! If I would have booked the flight myself when I started the change request, I am sure would have paid less than 400 euros in the airline directly. Never ever will buy a ticket with a third company! Better do it directly with the airline, even if they are a few Euros expensive at the beginning, the service is worth it and at least you know the airline will support you with changes and money back if something happens.
I have purchased a vacation which supposed to be fully insured, hotel were showing refundable up to the vacation point, flights shows free cancellation, and car rental as well. After Government move the destination to amber list which makes it not legal to go for vacation, I have cancelled the vacation as requested on the panel for a refund and then no one get back to us and when I have contacted them by phone after so many tries the agent just said that it is ok and under processing but it takes longer due to COVID19. I had to go to my bank to have a charge back and bank informed me that they have rejected the charge back without addressing the points we have made for cancellation.
They are scam, just collect the money and for sure they will ran away and file bankruptcy when take more money from hard earning people like us.
I was looking into flights for January on Sky Scanner. Lastminute.com had the lowest prices out of all the options. However when I tried to book the tickets on the site the price almost doubled. It seems like they are unscrupulous thieves and scoundrels. All of the positive reviews are clearly fake as well.
Online fraud they are running. I had flight booked and insured with cancellation. I tried to cancel it then came to know that only 90% refund i will get and that too voucher, and their 90% is more than 40% amount. I bought ticket in 1500 euro and got only 1064. Same less people.
Avoid at all costs … they have no way of talking to them … no phone... no email... no chat... app doesn't allow anything either... staying silent is there way of keeping your money.
Had authorised refunds in April and have received nothing form them and now we are in Aug! Awful service.
Return flight SA to UK had to be changed on short notice we selected the option to change flights and paid the fees. We receive a response 4 days after trying to change our return flight. Their customer service is pathetic They do not respond to e-mails, do not try and call you are wasting your time, and speaking to an agent is a scam. Avoid stay away
Absolutely awful. Never use them - just go directly to the air carrier's website and book there for way less money! I confirmed I didn't want insurance and after I saw the amount I was paying and entered my card details, they gave another pop up just to catch you off guard - ended up paying way more than if I had booked directly on the air carrier's website. Awful customer service too. Never booking through them again.
Worst company! They lie that cancellation is free of charge. We had booked a flight with the hotel and had to cancel due to personal reasons. The whole thing was supposed to cost €2,100, and they asked us to pay €1,330 for cancellation, because apparently Ryanair charged such a fee. How much did the hotel cost for a week's stay for 4 people with full board, €800?! Fraudsters
Booked hotel rooms for our party at the last minute. Was presented with a variety of options, so we were able to compare and select the best fit for us. Descriptions of the different hotels were a useful aid for making our selection. Booking process was easy, confirmation arrived in my inbox promptly, and there were no issues with our booking on arrival despite us making the booking earlier that same day.
