StudentUniverse Reviews Summary

StudentUniverse generally enjoys a positive reputation for providing affordable travel options, particularly for students and young travelers. Customers frequently commend the competitive pricing and ease of booking, often highlighting significant savings on flights. However, the company faces notable criticism regarding its customer service, particularly during high-demand promotions, where long wait times and difficulties in reaching support representatives are common concerns. Issues with confirmation and communication further detract from the overall experience. While customers appreciate the value offered, enhancing customer service responsiveness could significantly improve satisfaction levels.

Good prices
January 3, 2023

While my ticket was a great price and the website had lots of flight options, I didn't like how quickly I had to enter my payment information. Unknowingly, I took longer than allowed, and, as a result, when I clicked "book now/purchase," the website kicked me out of my cart and invalidated my first time user $20 discount code.

I had to cancelled my one-way ticket bought in Nov 2021 for travel in Dce 2021. Had to cancel my 5 pax tickets due to Covid. Seems like the ticket is only valid for 1 year from the date of purchase and not from the date of travel. Appareently its Singapore Airlines policy.

Since I cannot travel in Nov 2022, i wanted a refund of all my 5 pax tickets minus airline fees and minus Student Universe Fee - total minus 49% fees. That was back in Oct 2022. Its now Jan 2023 and still no refund. Reason given was Airline not responding to them.

At least with GoGate - I get refund within a month for the return leg.
Is Student Universe trying to cheat me on my less then $3000 refund?

StudentUniverse attempted to help this customer through the Sitejabber Resolution Center, but the customer did not respond
