Oh and the refund will take 3-4 business days. I was called today and was told that they would be performing refund of £1,281.00.but will be keeping the £300.00 deposit?!?!?! No compensation, no goodwill gestures, not even £1 off discount offered! Genuinely couldn't care less. They have closed down phone lines, post generic responsex to emails, sealed off their mailboxes to prevent any mail, shut down offices and shipped their ops out to India. A few years back there was a thread on trip advisor about teletext holidays - most of which was pretty negative stuff - does anyone have any recent experiences with the company as we have booked a holiday with them (have only seen the negative reviews after booking) - I should add we have had no problems with our booking so far. Still in t shirt and shorts with no place to sleep. Holidays cancelled due to COVID19 This is the only company that refuses refunds going against FCO guiddline. HAVENT MANAGED TO SPEAK TO SOMEONE YET BUT WILL BE TAKING A CLAIM OUT AGAINST THEM AND I URGE YOU TO AVOID!!! HOPEFULLY I GET HOME BUT WILL HOLD TELETEXT PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE IF I LOSE MY JOB AND CANT FEED MY FAMILY!!! JOKE!!!!!ģ0/06 - To follow up.on yesterday's events.I am still in London with no means to get home. IT MAKES ME LAUGH HOW EVERY NEGATIVE REVIEW IS "PLEASE GET IN TOUCH, WE WANT TO HELP" WHEN I NEEDED HELP TODAY AND THERE WAS NONE. I WAS SUPPOSED TO GET A CALL FROM MANAGEMENT TONIGHT BUT RECEIVED NONE!!! MY LIFE IS IN QUESTION BECAUSE OF THIS COMPANY. I WILL MISS AN IMPORTANT BOARD MEETING ON MONDAY IN MY JOB AND MAY EVEN LOSE MY JOB. I CANT BOOK A HOTEL BECAUSE I AM OVERDRAWN AND MY FRIENDS CANT LEND ME MONEY BECAUSE IT WOULD COST THEM £600 TO EVEN GET ME OUT OF MY OVERDRAFT. I AM IN LONDON IN A T SHIRT AND SHORTS AND CANNOT GET HOME. I AM NOW £660 OVERDRAWN AND MY BANK CANT DO ANYTHING. I said, no i have spoken to manager and he said finance department would not claim.I then stupudly paid the deposit again to try and get it straight but 24 hours later THEY DID CLAIM THE MONEY!!! Instead of the full holiday balance of 1581 leaving my account.1851 (300 more than thw actual price) has left my account. I rang my bank to tell of situation and they agreed to put a temporary reversal and give me full money back on the basis they wouldnt claim for it (if they did I would be stuffed). They accepted it was a "technical error". now I dont know how many people can afford to let £1,581.00 go for 3 days.but I cant. He even said to me "Please confirm you authorise £300" to which I answered yes.I then get a call 45 minutes later saying that I had successfully PAID IN FULL!! I said no I havent it was £300 to which she said "Ok no worries we will get it refunded and it will be in your account in 3 days". They told me for 3 of us that it was £300 deposit (£100 each but all on my card) and made me type my card details into phone. My friends advised me to book as they book every year and are "cheaper" (turns out they are £50 more expensive than other online companies) but I went for it.
