Comments on: Travelocity exposes customer information

A security breach at the online travel company's site exposes the names, addresses, phone numbers and e-mail addresses of customers who participated in a promotion.

Travelocity misinforms their customers on the phone

The ticket they sell on the phone is different from what you get. Both the itinerary and the price differs! There seems to be no way to claim your rights - the customer agents do not hear you but tell you what they memorized. The don't answer your questions.

Travelocity Customer Service Non-existent

I am in the midst of the worst customer service experience I've ever had the misfortune of having.
Having found that Travelocity had charged me twice for the flight I booked my parents for Christmas, I made the misguided assumption that it would easily be resolved. All I had to do was contact Travelocity customer service and have them credit my account. Simple enough, right? Sure, if a customer service department existed which, as far as I can discern, does not. I have just lost two hours of my life listening to crumby on hold music and I am yet to speak to someone. It has been perhaps one of the most frustrating experiences of my life. I just want to speak to someone, anyone!!! My advice to all travellers considering an online travel agent is to avoid Travelocity like the plague. If they don't value their customers enough to have a feasible customer service department, then they are not deserving of our custom.

Travelocity Customer Service is Horrible

When you call the billing phone number you get what I'm sure is a different country (not the USA) where any problems are referred to a fax number where you send a letter. You will be contacted by e-mail within 7-10 days! Unreal. I can't seem to find REAL customer service for my problem! Travelocity charged my credit card without giving me a confirmation number and telling me my request was no longer available. I have now been charged for something I didn't receive and can't get anybody to help me. We are talking over $150! Beware of Travelocity!

Been looking for Travelocity Customer Service contact for months!

I, too, have had HORRIBLE customer service from Travelocity and still have not found the correct person to contact after looking for over 6 months! You can view my horrible experience with Travelocity online in a "sample" complaint letter that I've posted for tips on how to write a valid complaint letter. I think it is very poor form of Travelocity to ignore even polite complaints. I've gone so far as to contact their PR firm regarding this. They (Vollmer PR) also have not responded to me.

Travelocity Major Customer Service Blunder

Travelocity must be investing all of their resources into advertising gnomes. Normaly I'm a patient consumer but when a website dies in the midst of processing my credit card information there had best be a human being to talk to. Unfortunately I cannot find a phone number anywhere on the site, and it seems that tonight (Jan 6th) many of the links are broken on the site. This large of an error should have been noticed and warning presented on the front page. I recommend consumers take their business elsewhere.

TRAVELOCITY IS THE WORST

BEWARE OF TRAVELOCITY NOT ONLY IS THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE THE WORST IN THE WORLD BUT THEY ARE ALSO A BUNCH OF THIEVES. MY HUSBAND AND I BOOKED A TRIP FOR $800.00 DUE TO PERSONAL CIRCUMSTANCES WE HAD TO CANCEL THE TRIP WE GAVE THEM A 6 MONTHS NOTICE THEY ARE CHARGING US $477.00 CACELLATION FEE AND THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REPS WILL NOT LET US SPEAK TO ANYONE ABOUT THIS . WILL NOT GIVE US A PHONE NUMBER TO SPEAK TO ANYONE. ALL THEY TELL US IS THAT THEY GOT US A GOOD DEAL .

If you want to throw your money away you will be guaranteed to get this done by using Travelocy. You will not only loose your money very quickly but you will get bad service in return, in addition to that you can be assured to feel frustrated and ripped-off. Please read my words and save yourself lots of trouble.

Jumping Fares

Why, when I try to book a fare with Travelocity it gives me a fare which may be acceptable but as soon as I go to book it, the fare jumps. The jump in the fare is always UP never DOWN. Is this a Travelocity trick to get you to continue? This practice is not ethical and should stop immediately.

Horrible Travelocity customer service

I searched in Google for "Travelocity customer service" and got bunch of stories with experience similar to mine. I don't know if I should be relived or disappointed that the website still exists after so many negative reaction from customers. This is what happened to me:
I tried to make a change to an existing reservation over the phone and got to speak to 5 different people repeating over and over my request, people that not only hardly speak and understand English, but have reasoning abilities of a 5 year old. I was held on the phone for 3 hours and 45 minutes and was given more than 10 different rates for the exchange of the date of departure. In the end, the rate came up to $480.00 exchange fee for a ticket that I initially paid $780.00. I decided to just cancel the ticket for a $200.00 penalty and went and purchased new ticket from the airline website for $750.00. I was suppose to receive $580 back, however, the promised $580.00 showed up on my credit card 6 weeks later as $520.00. The Travelocity customer service reps are rude and dishonest, and hopefully Travelocity will decide to move its customer service out of India or there will be more and more dissatisfied customers. I know that I and all the people that I have talked to will not use Travelocity any more.

Travelocity is the worst !!

I tried to buy tickets from travelocity so that my mom and I can stay with my brother who's best friend passed away recently. WHAT A NIGHTMARE! First I waisted 45 minutes trying to make reservations on the web site. A note finally popped up that that the web site having technical problems ( Uh, no kidding...) I naively called the costumer service number. The service representative's English was so bad that it took 20 minutes to communicate that I wanted to by tickets but I didn't want to pay the extra $50 dollars your rep wanted me to pay because I couldn't make the reservations on line. Then it was another 20 min for him to admit it was indeed not me, but a problem with your site. He made me reservations but said I had to talk to a technician who's name was Christine Fernando to get my money back( it took me a long time get her to tell me her name but would not tell me the name of her manager) . Christine's accent and English skills were also difficult to understand but eventually I understood that she thought that because I used the back arrow while filling out your form, the web site wouldn't make the tickets. She instructed me to wait 24 hours and try again. I told her that I was viewing my Bank account and that currently it was showing that Travelocity had already charged me for 3 sets of tickets. She said that There were only some tickets on reserve and that they were not paid for. She said to wait 24 hours and try agian. We debated for a long time and I got put on hold many times during this annoying exchange. Finally she said that no, the 3 sets of tickets charges wouldn't be charged to my account. OK, I said but I still actually need to buy 1 set tickets so that I could go help my brother in the next 2 days. She took all my info put me on hold several times and then after ALL THAT TIME TOLD ME THAT THE FAIR HAD EXPIRED!! GAH!


As I am writing this there is no 4!!! sets of tickets plus a number of fees charged to my debit card totaling over $1,300!! you can bet I will stop these charges through my bank. I finally realized that travelocity is an insane waste of time and got my tickets for the same amount of money in about 10 minutes from Orbitz.
Anyway, I don't expect any remedy on this situation from them because as I said you have to worst costumer service ever.
It is fraud however, so the next call I make will be to the police ( After the bank that is )

Travelocity

I have been trying to get my hotel changed for Super Bowl weekend for over a week. We were supposed to stay at the Monte Carlo, but because of the fire they are going to be closed. Have talked to three people, all with accents so strong I cannot understand them. The put me on hold forever and nothing ever gets resolved. Worst travel site around. Will never use them again!
