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

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.

Rude disgusting treatment by staff member

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.

How can I give less than 1 Star?

published

Will not refund My Money even though I have email stating they will.
Will not reply to emails. Put you on Hold Then transfer you to 3 different departments until you give up.

Will never support this business ever again

published

Flight centre have my well earned money confirmed to be in their bank account and won’t refund my money. I had a written agreement with the captains package of a guaranteed next day business refund and they are in breach of their terms and conditions and change to whatever suits them. I will never recommend or book a trip with this company ever again.

Dear Flight Centre, Are you reading these comments? Do you anticipate still having a client base at the end of this and will you still be in business? You have some fabulous staff and are leaving them to front your angry customers while customer service hides behind a recorded message ! There is a Gilbert and Sullivan opera which mentions “ leading your army from behind! “ cap fit?

I had to cancel my Italy holiday (departure August 2020) and was very professionally assisted by a FC team member in Perth Office. He obtained guarantees for refunds from Qatar return airfares and my 3 Italy tours.
He then handed over my case file to
FC Garden City, Booragoon, WA where I had originally booked. On 2nd June I went to FC Garden City and signed a form with details of my new Bank Account into which the refund will be paid. I was told it will take 2 weeks to process and get in my Bank Account.
Can someone at FC Centralised Refunds Team reply to let me know how long it will be after lodging my Bank details on 2nd June please? Margaret B.

I cannot help you. My claim was very small was a part of a holiday that we took and returned to Adelaide the day before the borders closed. It is the attitude of the staff at my local Flight Centre in following my claim through that I appreciate. They are all struggling yet their courteous and professional attitude did not waver

We have also had pleasant service from the staff at Doncaster Shoppingtown store. However, the firm’s policy of delaying refunds places their staff in an awful position. I feel sorry for individual staff members who bear the brunt of refusing refunds and who have to cope with client’s disappointment . Despite having had excellent service from staff, we will never deal with FC again due to management policies.

If you call customer service, you get a recorded message telling you that they won’t discuss refunds. So, while they hide behind a recorded message, staff in their agencies are left to refuse refunds and cop any abuse.NOT. IMPRESSIVE !

The only way to get answer on a firm date of refund is to get on a current affair and shame them. It would great to the money back after cancelling 3 months ago, it may even be acceptable to get a firm date. My other idea would be to say I have only a few weeks to live and I need the money to pay for my funeral. However, luckily this not true. Second thoughts this mob would not care if it was true all they are interested is keeping our money for long as possible with lame excuses.

I am very disappointed with their attitude. The hotels which we booked have refunded, in full, our payments. Unfortunately, this money was sent to our booking agent, Flight Centre who were entrusted with the task of forwarding it to us. Up to a six month delay! I am now an ex client!

Did you see Miriam Margolyes program on Tuesday night? Comforting to see the luxurious accommodation of Flight Centre owners. Meantime, we, their unfortunate customers wait for refunds !
