Hi Brenda,
We're sorry this happened! Unfortunately, our prices are dynamic and subject to change, as with many online travel agencies and airlines. However, we have a lot of discounts on flights to Europe right now! We hope you'll give us a try again in the future and find a deal that works for you.

Hi, sorry that the first few transactions didn't go through. The $4 pending charge were meant to verify the card ($1 each time); it would be returned to your account within 3 business days whether the transactions go through or not. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

After 2 1/2 hrs on the phone to StudentUniverse to try to pay for the flight (£723.99) it was impossible to get the flight for the price advertised. I was eventually told I had to pay in US$ (booking a UK originating flight, advertised on a UK website in GB£) at a cost that StudentUniverse could not confirm how much I would be paying,
StudentUniverse post flights at discounted rates and then make it impossible to pay for the flight. I was told my credit card was not PSD2 authorised (I phone Mastercard and it was). The texted backup security code input to authorise payment was rejected by the StudentUniverse website - in short it was impossible for me to pay for the flight.
I was offered a flight which I was told I could pay for by credit card at £957.46.
The discounted rate is to draw traffic to the website, I assume in the hope that people will pay the higher prices for the tickets.
My experience with StudentUniverse will be reported as a formal complaint to Abta
