The company demonstrates a mixed reputation, with notable strengths in the ease of the booking process and competitive pricing, which many customers found straightforward and efficient. However, significant concerns arise around customer service, particularly regarding unresponsive support, issues with reservation confirmations, and difficulties in modifying bookings. Instances of billing discrepancies and perceived bait-and-switch tactics have contributed to a growing sentiment of frustration among users. While some customers report positive interactions with staff, the overall trend indicates a need for improved communication and reliability to enhance customer trust and satisfaction.

Numerous reviews where if your booking needs an amendment they will find a way to blame you. Customer service is their biggest revenue stream, unfortunately I experienced this first hand.
Booked, asked "how to try and cancel and what refund process is", received a response saying they have now cancelled my booking and since it is non-refundable any funds received would be a bonus for me, may take months and are not guaranteed!
When responding (within an hour) saying given the above I wish not to proceed with cancellation, the news was this has already been done by our customer service and 'any funds received would be a bonus for me, may take months and are not guaranteed!'
They replied to a more tame review than this saying "We have checked with the agent to make sure he is chasing the supplier regarding trying to get something sorted for you."
The agent isn't recreating my booking which he cancelled!
Anyway rant over, don't use them they have rearranged or cancelled many bookings, blame the customer and don't refund - a horrible business model
We arrived and the hotel that we booked was full! We were never contacted we were just moved to a much cheaper hotel and still charged the full price! No one has been helpful or has tried resolving the issue or even offered a refund.
Dear Lindsey,
We are sorry to hear about your negative experience.
We can see that one of our agents is currently assisting and is waiting upon our supplier for more details before we can resolve the situation
We apologise for the delay and thank you for your patience during this process.
Kind regards, TravelUp Team
The hotel was horrible and I try to cancel my stay and I couldn't since you charging me the same amount I paid to cancel it. I won't recommend or use it again.
Dear Maeve,
Our cancellation policies are clear upon booking and before booking.
We can see our staff have been trying to assist by liaising with the supplier and hotel. We will update you if any further information is provided to us.
Kind regards, TravelUp Team
TravelUp doesn't care about people. I am keep emailing and calling and nobody is helping me.
Unfortunately this was the worst travel website experience I've ever had. Very frustrating. Still waiting for my confirmation.
Dear Seyed,
We are sorry to hear about your experience.
We can see you have had assistance on the 16th OCT, we hope this has been a help to you.
We apologise if you have had a difficult time, our staff have been working hard but the Covid-19 situation has caused many problems for everyone.
Kind regards, TravelUp Team
Great service quick and easy booking too. Will book again
The reservations were Simple but would like more pictures for the Bed and Breakfast. The entire room in general.
Good so far! I haven't traveled yet so it is early to describe this
Travel up changed the dates I typed in and got the booking wrong. When I noticed the dates had been changed I called to fix. They won't fix unless in writing so I sent them an email they still couldn't/wouldn't fix booking. This service sucks the customer service sucks and I will never utilize their services again
Dear Brian,
We have had a look in at your booking and it seems you have booked a non refundable rate. The dates should not change automatically unless sometimes when you have come through an external site e.g. trivago.
Unfortunately we are not able to change or refund as it is a non refundable rate with our suppliers, however if you send an email to hotels@travelup.com we will see what we can do for you.
Kind regards, TravelUp Team
This hotel is fabulous. Biggest room in New York City I ever had. Staff is personable and pleasant and very accommodating. The service is high end and it reminds me of high end European service.
Initially the booking process went well, until I realized I had picked the wrong weekend. When I contacted them to just change it to the correct weekend they told me they were unable to help me.
Dear Eric,
Unfortunately it seems you have booked a non refundable room. As the refundability is set by our suppliers we cannot change the dates of the booking.
We have sent a response to our hotel team to see if it would be possible. We are very sorry for the inconvenience you have been through.
Kind regards, TravelUp Team
Very straight forward process booking with Travelup. Only bad thing is cancellation not an option.
Great fast and easy. Would definitely use them again for our next trip
Not received my e-ticket. Amount debited from my account. My travel details not showing in my trip section in the app.
This transaction was so easy and so quick! We had searched several other sites and found the rate cheapest!
A month away from the reservation date I try to cancel reservation and they did but no refund at all. They are keeping $$$2050. Dollars just from me one client. How much do they keep after all from people?
Good afternoon,
If you had checked the booking information before you booked it, you will see you had booked a non refundable room rate which is set by our suppliers.
We can see that our team still tried to see if the booking could be refunded by our supplier but we had no luck.
We apologise if you have felt inconvenienced during this process.
Kind regards, TravelUp Team
Buying the tickets was easy and i received my email confirmation
They made me a best romantic holiday I have ever had in my life!
I want it happen every month, but unfortunately it cannot.
The service was really fast and professional.
They have taken zero responsibility for a booking I made with them that has had some complications and left me stranded in a foreign country. They claim its the airlines fault however I booked with and paid Travel up! Which makes you wonder what's their purpose if once you've paid them they refuse too assist you any further and ask you too take it up with the airline! I highly recommend not using their service and to book direct with the airline or find a more professional travels agent. Worst travel experience of my life!
Dear Robert,
We are very sorry to hear about your experience whilst traveling.
We do our upmost if we are able to resolve issues like this, however it is the airlines responsibility to return customers home once they are abroad, as this was a common occurrence during peak Covid times.
We would like to hear more about your experience, if you could send us an email to admin@travelup.com.
Kind regards, TravelUp Team
Easy to use but never got an email confirmation. When I went to inquire the site booted me off.
Fue muy rapido, despues de ver varias opciones, aunque al momento del pago hubo una pequeña variación.
Answer: Hopeless. They don't reply to emails. Can't get through on the phone. Useless. Better to forget about them and lose the stress. Have accepted I'll never see my money again.
Answer: Good morning, we can see that one of the team has responded to your email this morning and sent over a payment link for your balance. Kind Regards, TravelUp Team
Answer: Good afternoon, Yes we are a legitimate site. If you have any questions please do let us know! Kind Regards, Travelup Team
Dear Scott,
We apologise for the inconvenience you have been through on this booking.
We have checked with the agent to make sure he is chasing the supplier regarding trying to get something sorted for you.
We hope to have a resolution to this soon.
Kind regards, TravelUp Team
