No refund. Only useless voucher option available.
With the covid-19 outbreak, Jetstar only had the voucher option on the website with phone contact impossible.
I felt I had to take the voucher option until things settled down and I could speak to someone.
Now I have been flatly refused a refund.
I have registered online in the Slater & Gordon class action. Easy to do.

Two months waiting for refund
Two months ago I requested a refund for a flight cancelled due to COVID. Jetstar has emailed me twice with false timelines to expect my payment return, and then entirely stopped contacting me. I made a complaint several weeks ago, met with a response that it will be processed soon -- and to not contact them asking for my refund. It was been weeks since then and now their website is no longer working to try to contact them again.

Unreachable, do not provide refund under covid restrictions
We contacted your Jetstar via Online Chat, phone and email, either methods are working. Online Chat directed us to call, phone never answered and auto response noted that our email will not reach the without a Case ID when we emailed. We are unable to create a Case ID as the live chat (online form to create Case ID) is always shown as away or busy.

COVID Travel Credit Request
Requested a travel credit simply because of the COVID situation and wished to have it to change to a later date.
They kept me on hold for an hour and could not give me a travel credit for whatever stupid reason.
Virgin are miles ahead with their customer service.

Mandatory vaccinations to fly
Hey guys,long story cut short, just to inform you that i had booked domestic flights prior the covid hysteria, and i asked for a refund on my flights, as i was told that when airlines reopen, we will all need to be chipped vaccinated to fly anywhere in the world. I personally, do not wish to go down this satanism path, and expressed in email that we have all got the same human rights, living under the same democracy constitution, and they responded ruthlessly, saying i cannot get my refund, and dont care about mandate vaccs.

Jet star stealer
I am very disappointed with the Jetstar company. I am requesting a refund for the canceled Brisbane-Melbourne flight ($ 610) the day after I booked it. Jetstar offers me only a voucher that I cannot use. I am trying to returning to my country on Thursday and have no other flights available before this day. I had to rent a car to cross the country, 3350 km and I only have $ 20 left in my account today. They don't want to hear anything. Jestar is taking advantage of these times of crisis to rip off people. No value ! Shame on you

Should be refund not voucher
Due to retrenchments people should be entitled to a refund. We are struggling out here. I can't see myself being able to travel in the next 12 months. Wont be able to afford it. Jetstar has no compassion.

No empathy, no customer service
My husband was retrenched on 9/4/20. That night I booked a flight home from Sydney to Brisbane and paid $45 extra for 20kg of checked baggage.Half an hour later we decided to book an extra 10kg for $18. After completing the extra baggage, I checked the booking immediately, only to discover that the flight had been cancelled. The next day I received an email to state that flight was cancelled and that I should check my booking for options regarding vouchers or refunds. The link didn't work. 13 minutes after receiving the cancellation email, I wa...Read more
s sent another email by Jetstar reminding me of the cost of extra baggage at the airport and telling me to buy more if the baggage might be over the limit ! Seriously ? Despite numerous attempts at using their website to obtain a refund, I decided to lodge a complaint. After writing my story, I pressed the send button and guess what? It took me straight to thsir 24/7 chat box instead of allowing me to send my complaint ! After going through the whole story, the agent denied me a refund using the 'subject to change' line. Jetstar fails to recognise that it is morally unethical to refund their customers who request one and that denying us our refunds will only ensure that we NEVER fly with them again. My threats of using the Advocate fell on deaf ears which was only to be expected and then the agent reminded me that we all have until April 30 to claim our voucher, thus denying us all the chance to lodge a complaint with the Advocate. Surely this is illegal in itself ? Absolutely appalling behaviour and guaranteed to lose a lot of business Jetstar !Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!
They cancelled my flight and refuse to give me a refund! DO NOT TRUST THEM!
This company is despicable! Do not ever trust them! If your flight gets cancelled you should be entitled to a refund! I booked my flight home home, then they cancelled it at the last minute and still charge me anyway! Jetstar should be ashamed of them self's taking peoples money during this time of crisis!

Disappointing
With almost $1000 in Jetstar vouchers from cancelled flights between Cairns and Gold Coast, I called regarding using the vouchers on Qantas flights, as no flights available for the next two months from Cairns to Gold Coast or Cairns to Brisbane on Jetstar. Not able to use the vouchers on Qantas flights with available seats!!! Very disappointed as wanted to see my young son living on Gold Coast at this time. Please review your policy. Often when I use Qantas frequent flyer points I am on a Jetstar flight, so please reciprocate, particularly during times of need. Very disappointed.

Greed, lie and cheat
Jetstar should be offering refunds not vouchers during the Covid-19 crisis. Beware: They also change your flights without notifying you.
Even once the flight is cancelled, they only offer a voucher. Jetstar tricks their customers out of a refund in which they are entitled to. If you call them to discuss your options, be prepared to be on hold for minimum 4 hours before being disconnected. They give a short deadline to accept a voucher, expecting a decision without being able to discuss your options with them, as they give no other option but a...Read more

Thieves
Flights are cheap because they’ll always find another way of taking money from you. Total rip off. Hand bag slightly above weight and they force you to pay 65$ to have it checked in. If you want to keep laptop out of it and carry it you can’t do it. Why? Because if it’s in the bag it is above the weight and then they can charge you. Thieves, you should feel ashamed to work for such a company.

They Cancelled my flight and will only give credit note
If Jetstar has just given you a credit note and not a refund, please join our Facebook page “Jetstar Class Action” - together we can try and get our money back
Have flown Jetstar numerous times and never had a problem!
Now they have cancelled my flights and can’t tell me when they can fly me to Good Coast will only give me a credit note.
I’ve been on Jetstar messenger for 4 hours and no response.
Then I wrote to Jetstar CEO who just told me that I can have a credit note-I paid cash why can’t I have cash back?
They have issued me a credit note only.
Avoid them as they take your money then don’t supply what you paid for and will only give you a credit note $822 loss plus accommodation- very unhappy Jetstar!

Avoid at all costs
I have been struggling to get my flights to home for many weeks due to COVID-19 situation. They cancelled my flight (connecting me to the only flight back to home) without any notification less than 24 hour before the departure! They told me my chances are to book another flight for over half of the price to a flight which will probably also get cancelled. No refunds. You cant get through any phone lines What an unprofessional company, avoid!!

A rip off. Boycott them so they go out of business.
Booked a flight from Sydney so my brother could attend a funeral in Darwin. He is in Sydney and on a disability pension. Right from the get go he got daily emails encouraging him to cancel due to COVID 19. The words voucher and reimbursement were used. He elected to cancel under the understanding that a refund would be provided. That’s what reimbursement means to him. Then of course they state a voucher is coming. He doesn’t want a voucher. He’s on a disability pension and can’t afford a holiday and he has missed the funeral. Complained to ACA ...Read more
who stated he was ineligible as he hadn’t complained to Jetstar. The information provided to the ACA was provided to Jetstar who responded via some hack by claiming the flight was going ahead and that he’d elected to cancel so voucher only and no refund. Nice little racket between the ACA and airlines huh. We will complain again to ACA and Consumer Affairs and to every media outlet in the hope that one of them takes up his story as we know thousands of people are ripped off by Jetstar every year. In the meantime, I urge people to boycott Jetstar so they feel the heat AFTER the COVID 19 pandemic. Don’t fly with them ever or any airline that exhibits such mercenary and poor corporate behaviour. They are a disgraceful rip off and as consumers we determine their future so boycott them forever until they get the message and/or go bankrupt and cease flying. We will start a Facebook page shortly adverting to Jetstar and seeking enough numbers to lean on these grifters to provide refunds and spread this across social media and heritage media outlets. They are rotten to the core.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!
Terrible customer servie
We booked our flights with Jetstar for more than 50 people. Due to CoViD19, Australia closed borders to QLD unless it is essential. Also requiring travellers to self isolate for 14 days wether we show symptoms or not. WE WILL ONLY BE IN QLD FOR 5 DAYS!! I am a healthcare professional and it is only right and responsible to cancel our trip. I could be exposed to Covid 19 therefore, I am practicing social distancing and also encourage everyone in my group to do the same at the moment. Yet!! Jetstar refused to refund our money blatantly and only o...Read more
ffer vouchers, total is worth over 18K worth of flight tickets. With the economy at the moment and due to Covid 19, my friends has been laid of work and the refund could help some family at this stage. Again! they blatantly refused us. Compassionate and being safe is definitely not on their list, only money. Not at all reflect their values. Will never travel with them again!!Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

NO BANK REFUND
Booking from Darwin to Brisbane was cancelled due to covid-19. This was booked a month and half ago.
READ !!!!!! I am truly disappointed because insurance was not refunded back and had to be requested seperately. BEWARE!! PLEASE first refund your insurance via call or email before cancelling your tickets otherwise they will no longer see your insurance policy number that is needed and be provided to get refunded.
I am a frequent flyer of Jetstar. But they did not provide these points before requesting refund.
NO REFUND BACK ONLY VOUCHER.

Can't get the credit voucher as offered by Jetstar.
Been trying for days now to get a credit voucher for my upcoming trip to and from NSW (as offered to me by Jetstar). I am so annoyed with Jetstar - have been following the instructions on numerous occasions to get the voucher without success and keeps telling me I have to pay $70.00 to proceed - like WTH. If this isn't sorted out by the deadline of the 31/03/2020 and I lose my money I will NEVER use this company again. I would like someone to contact me to sort this out - I've even tried their chat/help line without success. Saying I'm disappointed is an understatement! Just give me what you offered!!!!

Questions & Answers
Ianasked
Are you all undisciplined arrogant excuses for humans that make up the team or is it just a small number intimidating those that actually deserve jobs. So police for example stop collecting revenue to make a point, teachers give 3 months notice so it can be done orderly, train and boat teams used to stop collecting fares and checking tickets - shall I go on.... You dont have to be smart to be thugs and thats what they call people who go along with holding innocent people to ransom so you can advantage yourself. So my question is, is that how you want the public to see you everytime you walk around in a Jetstar uniform? If not get rid or the people that would subscribe to these standover tactics. Just think - stopping your money grab exercises with luggage, poor quality food etc would have scant a financial message to you employer and you would have actually had the public supporting you. Not now, you left children crying, holidays these people have scrapped together for age ruined, people in wheelchairs for hours that couldnt even hold their heads straight, frightened and exhausted elderly purely wanting to seed their loved ones again - unfortunately in some cases for the last time, people with weddings, funerals to go to. Are you proud and dont blame Jetstar - you did this - and people hate you for it.

How can you justify charging 60 dollars at the gate for a few kilos of hand luggage? It makes your customers feel held to ransom and I know I will never fly with you again.

Same here I watched them make all passengers on two flights out of Hobart evening of 12 Sept 2022. I was charged $60 for my handbag. They would have made thousands that night by the number of people having to pay. First and last time with them for me. Certainly live up to their bad reputation.

In my experience they struggle to get passengers to their destination in a timely manner. I expect floral arrangements will wilt waiting more than six hours in a humid airport to board.
