Flight Centre - we WILL remember.......

published

Princess Cruises are refunding our deposit of $949 for a cancelled cruise back in full to Flight Centre. Yet we are being held to ransom to take a Flight Centre credit or lose $600.00 for their “fee”. We have no choice but to take a credit but I absolutely loathe having to use Flight Centre again and never will after the credit is used.

That reputable and trustworthy travel companies are conducting their businesses with integrity and have/are refunding Flight Centre all monies paid by Flight Centre CLIENTS is exemplary and I will book direct in future.

FLIGHT CENTRE’S refusal to act with the same integrity defines it as an organisation.

$3700 Gone Thanks to Flight Centre/BYOJET

published

Flights cancelled, no refunds, no waivers of fees, no communications, no customer service. No future business, you are a disgrace. Please avoid this crowd for any future travel. Book direct with airlines, book with small independent companies, but avoid these companies who are ripping off everyone at the moment.

Where is my money

published

Paid $12000 in flights last August to usa. All my flights were cancelled due to covid19. I can understand a reasonable cancellation fee say $100 for 30 mins of work. Forced cancel 15 March still no refund on 29 S
April. However i contacted American Airlines 3 times this week spoke with different staff all said my money was refunded back to Flight Centre late March. So FC where is my money??
I know my money and others is used to prop up fc bank accounts.
Will never use FC again.
All liars from FC

Flight Centre

published

Staff at the Flight Centre are either liers and thiefs or idiots who follow their pathetic managers directives to steal money from their clients whose flights have been cancelled by the airline. There are a lot of smaller operators who are honest with competitive prices. Good buy Flight Centre. There will be a lot of other people I will encourage to join me. Consider this one star given as negative five stars.

Flight Centre Cash Grab Gets Horrible

published

The store manager of Flight Centre maliciously cut communications with us by blocking our face book and messenger cruelly severing the relationship despite us spending significant sums of money over the years with her. Our affected trip was booked with FC Kippa-Ring.

The actions are deplorable and occurred unilaterally after we communicated our dissatisfaction over Flight Centre charging a $300 per head penalty fee for the airlines cancelation of our flights due to covid19.

The managers actions of deleting and blocking us are horrible and as a result we will not be conducting any future business with Flight Centre.

Shame on you for blocking us and shame on Flight Centre for cash grabbing fees on all forced cancelled covid19 travels.

Where is my refund?

published

Up to 12 weeks to process a refund is unacceptable, cancellations were outside our control and therefore fees
should be waived at this time during COVID-19. There has been no update, no transparency or empathy.

ACCC have sent a very limp response out. They don't seem to be that interested which is a pretty poor effort. From what I have read out there on social media, there is a lot of injustice being delivered by FC and the ACCC ought to wade in.

Gavin

Gavinasked

Answer why bother. Can't they see the reviews. They are useless. The same staff treating us like idiots will be the same staff at Centrelink in the next month when Flight Centre goes belly up. So staff word of warning don't be so sure of yourselves.

I have found two facebook groups that are worth looking at / joining in relation to Flight Centre and their cancellation policy. Quite a few media outlets have reached out to the facebook groups and ran stories on FC this week -

Yes and thanks. Had joined them. They can't do anything about the situation except let everyone vent. Emailed every person known to man. None can do a damn thing and none can speed up the extremely painful 16 week suggested refund time! Believe me not even my federal minister has the power to actually enforce a hasty refund. Flight Centre are now saying up to 6 months for refunds!!

So now it's blown out to 16 weeks? Unbelievable!

Woodstock31asked

Dear Flight Shonky Centre
Why is it taking 12 weeks for refunds? It is bad enough you are ripping us off with unreasonable cancellation fees despite the fact that WE DID NOT Cancel, you are refusing to refund our $ for up to 3 months.
That is unethical & unscrupulous corporate greed!
You guys are a pack of thieves.

Yes completely agree. The concern is that Flight Centre don't hold our monies in a trust account. It is available to the company to use in any way they see fit.
