The worst travel experience I have encountered

published

Our flight was canceled by the airline on the day of travel. The airline credited us for the outgoing flight but told us to contact the online agent regarding the return flight. Obviously because we did not go we would not be able to use the return flight. A Flight Network contact told us a refund would be arranged. Nothing happened and they were contacted again, this time an entirely different story, no refund or credit in spite of paying an extra $400 for cancellation and flexible fares. Representatives on the phone totally indifferent and couldn’t care less. Worse experience ever

Terrible customer service!

published

Paid for a flexible fare but they we unable to change flight dates even though it was 6 months in advance of the flight dates. On their website there were 10 - 15 available flights, but the customer assistant was unable to see any seats available for the entire day. Flexible tickets are not very flexible!!! We cancelled the booking at a cost of $200 and they were unable to give an estimate for when the money would be refunded.

Terrible experience with this company

published

My flight was canceled by the airline, they have been avoiding and not supporting to provide refunds on request and also have terrible customer service support over the phone.
As a result, now I am unable to get my refund and lost my flight. A credit voucher was not an option when the airline canceled due to their issues.

Terrible Service

published

I booked a flight from Calgary to Palm Springs through Flight network. When I arrived at the airport I was advised that flight had been rescheduled for the previous day. I was not advised of this change by Flight Network. I had rebook a flight on the next day at five times the cost. I rang flight network and had wait Four hours to get connected and I was told that I had been informed but it’s a lie. Terrible service.

Absolutely hopeless and frustrating

published

Booked on flight network site, got error message twice online and closed and reopened window to attempt flight booking again. 3rd attempted managed to book flight for 1 passenger, then found my bank had been charged for all 3 transactions. Called their support line, they would cancel bookings, each with. $54 cancellation/ admin fee. It was a system error not my error and not happy with service or resolution.not sure why they would think the same named person travelling on the same flight/day needs 3 seats.!

God help you if you need to change anything!

published

Due to an issue with her visa my Aunty was unable to board her Qantas flight. on the the phone to "customer service" for 2 days trying to rebook - they transfer you from person to person and they all tell you the same thing "can you please hold for 2-3 minutes as I have to transfer you to the correct department?" This process goes on for 15 minutes or so until they hang up on you. I call back and the process repeats. No escalation process - they just have no idea.

Tragic if you need to rebook

published

Original flight booked no problem, but everything was extra cost. When I needed to change the dates it was hopeless trying to get accurate information about the rebooking process. My luggage allowance disappeared and I still don't know what happened to the travel insurance. Do yourself a favour and try someone else

Difficult to work with and charged a handling fee for a refund from the airline

published

Booked a return flight to Melbourne through Jetstar. Jetstar cancelled all return flights after 3pm on the Sunday so had to rebook through alternative carrier for my return as needed to be back by Monday.
Jetstar credited the payment to Flight Network who sat on the payment until I contacted them.
They had the cheek to charge me $23 to give me my $108 refund that they were holding from Jetstar.
Bad choice to fly with these 3rd party sellers.

check the website, there was not enough information for self-transfer or transit for the flight. the website clearly says for the call. when I call they say you did not buy the ticket we won't help you. and they hang up the phone on me. they don't even follow the instructions in their own website

Dodgy tactics

published

They advertise the flights at one price, then after you fill put all of your details and credit card info, and push confirm, the price magically goes up the same price as the competitors. Also they ask you to pay extra to have a more responsive customer service, how ridiculous is that? Should be a major red flag.

Painful customer service with >60min wait times on the phone

published

Customer service is very difficult to reach and quite unhelpful. If you have no issues with your flights you will be fine but if anything goes wrong, you will be in a world of pain and frustration trying to get FlightNetwork to help you.

I strongly recommend avoiding booking with them; Dealing with them is not worth the $20-40 savings.

Awful customer service. Total rip off.

published

I booked a two leg journey with a layover that was too short. I realised this in advance and called to amend my booking. I was transferred to 3 different staff members - all of whom were very confused about what the problem was.

Eventually, one of them was able to comprehend the issue. They said it would cost $1400 to change the flights so that I had a long enough layover period. (It would be cheaper to just not show up and book them again myself). They wouldn’t entertain the idea of changing only one flight so it was cheaper for me. Then wouldn’t offer any refund on cancellation.

If you don’t buy their premium package, they treat you like rubbish and show absolutely no duty of care to the customer. I’ll NEVER use them again

Never, never deal with this company

published

Due to Covid I have a credit that I have endeavoured to use. It can only be used from Melbourne to the Sunshine coast, where I live. When I tried to book, there were no dates, over a week, I could fly that fit in with my plans. It is impossible to speak with anyone, when you do, they put you on hold for hours, they hang up on you, each employee tells you something very different to the previous person. Basically, staff have no idea because there are no standard procedures. I have never been so frustrated in my life, dealing with a company, trying to claw my $199 back. My biggest mistake was going through this agent to save a couple of dollars, and getting stung.

Booked flights from AUS to UK, 4 weeks before got a text message saying 1 of the flights had been cancelled, tried emailing the airline and for 2 week no response, then after over an hour on the phone being passed between 4 different people I got told there was no flights (I was looking at their website and they were still advertising flight to and from my destination) when I was what I was going to do as they now terminated my journey in Copenhagen he actually said "what do you want me to do about it" I am still $6,000 out of pocket as I haven't received my refund and have had to pay for alternative flights
