Hey scammers

Hey scammers
You can send long replies on here but cannot reply to any emails I have sent on official channels regarding my refund. No contact via email or call for over 2 months and I’m still waiting my refund of just under £4000 . Money you took within minutes and not refunding back . FYI having spoken to the airline directly , they refund form there side is done , it’s you you not communicating or refunding customers now!!!

And since you asked here is my booking reference number - 3873300 and Your Booking No TH3400718.

You must know why there are two !!

Good morning.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are very sorry to hear about your experience and the frustration this situation has caused you.

We would like to sincerely apologise for any delay in responding to your query. We completely understand how important timely assistance is, especially when travel plans are affected. Please rest assured that no customer is being ignored.

Due to the ongoing situation in the Middle East, we have experienced an exceptionally high volume of urgent requests relating to flight disruptions, cancellations, and schedule changes. This has placed significant pressure on our customer service teams and has unfortunately led to longer response times than usual as we work through all cases as quickly as possible.

We also want to reassure you that we are a fully legitimate travel company, working closely with airlines and suppliers to support all affected customers and resolve outstanding issues.

Your case has been highlighted and escalated to our team for review, and we will ensure it is investigated as a priority. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and frustration caused and appreciate your patience during this very busy period.

Once again, thank you for your feedback, and we are sorry that your experience has not met expectations.

Regards,
TravelUp

Very poor experience with TravelUp

Very poor experience with TravelUp. I paid for a return ticket, but only a one-way ticket was actually booked. There was no clear communication, and customer support was practically non-existent—no replies to calls or emails.

After chasing them, they claimed the return flight was “cancelled” and said the refund would take 5–6 weeks, which is unacceptable for an error on their side.

I would strongly advise others to avoid this platform and always verify bookings directly with the airline.

Good morning, Gul Shafae,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are very sorry to hear about your experience and the frustration this situation has caused you.

We sincerely apologise for the concern caused regarding your return flight booking and the lack of clear communication you experienced. We understand how distressing it must have been to believe a return ticket had been booked and then later be informed otherwise.

In some cases, flight segments can be affected by airline schedule changes, availability issues, or system updates, which may result in adjustments or cancellations. However, we fully appreciate that this should always be clearly communicated and handled with much greater clarity and care. We are very sorry that this was not your experience.

We also regret the difficulty you encountered in reaching our support team. We understand how important it is to receive timely assistance, especially when there is uncertainty about your booking.

Your comments have been taken seriously and escalated for further review with the relevant teams. We would also like the opportunity to investigate your booking in detail and ensure everything is resolved correctly. Please contact us directly with your booking reference so we can assist you as a priority.

Once again, we are truly sorry for the inconvenience caused and thank you for your feedback.

Regards,
TravelUp

One of the worst customer service…

One of the worst customer service experiences I’ve ever had.

TravelUp’s support is beyond unacceptable. You’re constantly told you’re “3rd in the queue,” yet end up waiting close to an hour every time. It feels deliberately misleading and completely disrespectful of your time.

It takes an absurd number of calls, easily 15 or more, just to get through to a human. And when you finally do, after hours wasted, they don’t help. They just brush you off with “we’ll get back to you on the ticket” and then disappear. No follow-up, no response, no accountability.

Even a simple change of date is handled poorly. You’re quoted inflated fees that make no sense, often higher than booking a brand new ticket for the same route. It feels like opportunistic pricing rather than genuine support.

The communication is terrible. The team struggles to understand basic issues, and responses feel scripted, generic, and completely disconnected from what you’re actually asking.

Email support is even worse. Messages go unanswered for days or even weeks, leaving you completely stuck with no way forward.

Overall, the entire operation feels chaotic, unprofessional, and frankly incompetent. If anything goes wrong with your booking, you’re on your own.

Avoid this company at all costs. Not recommended under any circumstances.

Good morning, Mr. Rahim,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We are very sorry to hear about your experience and the frustration caused.

We completely understand how upsetting it is when you are trying to reach support and are faced with long wait times and repeated attempts to get through. This is not the level of service we aim to provide, and we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience and time wasted.

We are currently experiencing a significantly higher than usual volume of enquiries, which has been further impacted by ongoing disruptions affecting travel schedules. This has unfortunately led to longer response and call waiting times than we would normally expect. However, we fully appreciate that this does not make your experience any less frustrating.

We are also very sorry to hear that you feel your queries were not properly resolved or followed up. Clear communication and reliable support are extremely important to us, and your feedback regarding responsiveness, clarity, and handling of change requests has been noted and escalated for review.

Please be assured that we are a legitimate travel company and every customer case is important to us. We are actively working through all outstanding requests and improving our service capacity to reduce delays and improve communication.

If your issue remains unresolved, we would welcome the opportunity to review it again. Please contact us directly with your booking details so we can assist you as a priority.

Once again, we are truly sorry for the inconvenience caused and thank you for your feedback.

We also regret the difficulty you experienced reaching our team by phone and the delays in receiving a clear response by email. This is not the level of service we aim to provide, and we are very sorry for the inconvenience caused.

We appreciate how important clear and consistent information is in situations like this, and your comments regarding communication and handling of your request have been taken seriously and escalated for review.

Lack of flexibility

There are 2 of us flying, but we only need 1 checked-in bag between us. The system only allows for 0 or 2 bags, no option for 1. Likewise, some of the insurance cover schemes where we need different cover. Essentially, not flexible enough.

Good morning, Mr. Smith,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the options available during your booking did not fully meet your requirements.

We understand your concern regarding baggage and insurance flexibility, particularly when travelling as a group with shared needs. We appreciate how this can feel restrictive, and we apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Some of these options are determined by the airline or third-party providers, which can limit the level of customisation available at the point of booking. However, we do appreciate your feedback that the current choices feel too rigid, and this will be shared with the relevant teams for review as part of ongoing improvements to the booking experience.

Thank you again for your comments and for bringing this to our attention. We hope to be able to offer you a more flexible experience in the future.

TravelUp

No communication and ignoring my emails.
My flight has been impacted by the situation in the Middle East, I’ve had no contact on the matter from Travelup and I emailed them on 28/03 and 09/04. Both of which have been ignored.
I then tried to use their ‘live chat’ function on 10/04 but it’s just a bit that goes around and around, even when you ask to speak to a human. It directed me to log a complaint which I did on 10/04 and said I would get a reply in 5 days - I didn’t.
