We are writing on behalf of a hotel. What happens here is fraud. We advise every guest not to make bookings. They provoke the cancellation on the part of the hotel and then tell the customer ‘the ho... See more

I booked this holiday in 2019 with Teletext and paid in 2020. I now need to cancel the holiday due to a heart related condition (See attached) . I am due to fly this coming Monday the 25th April
I have checked in online and packed my suitcases as this is something that was not expected.
All I need is for the company to do a simple thing and that is to issue me with a tour operator's cancellation invoice for the £2259.44 that I paid to Teletext holidays, so I can pass this onto AXA insurance. I dont need a refund
I have sent over 50 emails and made 4 phone calls, for something that any other travel company would find a simple task

Total scammers, do not use

This company took over from teletext Holidays, then they told us the hotel had cancelled and had placed us at another hotel which we found to be in a completely different area to where we wanted. Trying to get hold of them is a waste of time they either hang up, or say they will ring u back and never do. Emailing them we had no more luck they just repeated the same things not even answering your question. We were eventually told that it's that hotel or a refund which we agreed to then to be told via email we wouldn't be getting any refund

The worst experience I’ve had with any…

The worst experience I’ve had with any sort of customer service based business. I am waiting for a refund for a holiday cancelled all the way back at the beginning of the pandemic worth £2k Every-time I email they just say it will be done in due course. I have emailed to make sure my bank account details are correct for when they do finally refund me as it was that long ago but they just ignore my question… Probably because they have no intention of refunding me my money.

Can anyone explain to me what I have to do to take this further as I am not getting anywhere with the company.

Thanks

WHAT AN ABSOLUTE DISGRACE OF A TRAVEL COMPANY

WHAT AN ABSOLUTE DISGRACE OF A TRAVEL COMPANY !!!!!
Myself and my wife and four-year-old daughter are disgraced by this what they call a travel company.
TTA TRAVEL OR TRUELY TRAVEL whatever you want to be called allowed my family to travel to Lanzarote get there and find out that our transfers and Hotel had been cancelled. As you can imagine my wife and four-year-old daughter was in so much distress and panic I am now worried about the next time we go anywhere what effect and damage that it has done on my four-year-old daughter.
Not only did we have to sleep rough on a bench the first night we was there we also spent money that we didn’t really have taxis food an drink etc.
When all along we was on an all-inclusive holiday.
Then it only takes as they say 24 to 48 hours to get the money back in my account it actually took 36 hours which is an absolute disgrace for what this company has put my family through I urge you to take this to the top.
Me and my family want some compensation for what your company has put my family through this is not humanly right.
I will be taking this further if nothing is rectified.

Accommodation?? Not For You, Peasants!

Booked to go to New York, and I'm writing this from there... From a room we had booked separately after seeing reviews on this site.
We noticed these reviews about two weeks prior to travel, so contacted the hotel to check the details. It's lucky that we did so as we were informed that the room had actually been cancelled by TTA!
After calling TTA to discuss this I was told that this was done in error, had been rebooked, and we would receive confirmation within 24 hours - which it obviously didn't - so took a chance and booked a room ourselves directly as a backup at the very least. Further phonecalls were made to TTA and they fobbed us off every single time, being left on hold for long periods, 'accidentally' cut off, and told multiple times that everything was fine and booked (they didn't even know the flight times had changed, which we found out when booking Covid tests!!).

Ultimately when we arrived at the hotel and checked in I asked them to check for other reservations, only to find the recorded cancellation for the TTA booking complete with name and reference number of the person responsible. We will be using this when we seek the costs for the room we had to pay for as an additional expense to the holiday we had already booked through Teletext originally, and I suggest anyone with an outstanding holiday contact the hotel prior to travelling as I expect you may find yourselves in the same situation.

TTA are so scammy that I'm surprised they didn't tell me my computer had a virus or try to get me to pay using Apple gift cards.

Avoid like the plague.

This company are a shower with little or no respect for people who have handed over money in good faith and expectation they would get a holiday. When you ring and speak to Paschal, Deborah or Nancy (if that is their real names!!!), you are simply fobbed off with a promise of a call back. This never happens. Credit card companies are not much better. They hide behind the fact that holidays are covered by ATOL who are also useless.

I booked a holiday in June 2020 to go on holiday in October 2020, we paid £1858.37p TT cancelled my holiday and said I would receive my full refund within 14 days, I’m still waiting, and I’ve been fighting for my refund since then. I have filled in 2 request for refunds with all my paperwork attached to the email, again I was sent an email both times to say I would hear from someone within 21 days, and I’m like other people still waiting. I’ve been in touch with which, citizens advice and the CMA, no one is willing to help me, we all work hard for our holidays and then get this, I’m 68 years old pensioner and I still go to work for my holidays, it’s not fair on us all. I wish there was something we could all do together to get our refunds back.
