“hidden information and horrible customer service”

Written on: 22/05/2013 by pca08wh

Poor attitude of staffs during phone answering. The ticket is non refundable and changeable but the company did not mention it during booking process, or confirmation letters. Been shocked when I was call to make date changes. Airline company can not find any information about ticket classification as they did not booking following right procedure. Not helpful at all.

“worst customer service”

Written on: 21/05/2013 by sparkesjustin

I am still trying to calm myself down after an absolutely shocking phone call, your internet service team were rude and promised to call back within 30 mins and never did, twice! I have given up trying to change the tickets I did not want in the first place but I will do my upmost to spread the word that your company is terrible and never to book anything. I work within the travel industry and I am appalled at your lack of response to customers and the way I was spoken to on the call was way... (read more)

“Quite satisfied.”

Written on: 21/05/2013 by LondonLassie

Earlier this year I have booked a flight online to Asia, and it said to allow 48 hours before the e-ticket to arrive on my email. I waited and waited and waited. So after 5 days, I phoned them and the agent apologised and sent me the e-ticket before i even get to hang up the phone. Nevertheless i was happy with the agent and the transaction went smoothly. Just recently, I booked another flight to the US, still through online, however I did not know that the passport details are needed as... (read more)

“cyrus: the greatest travel agent ever”

Written on: 21/05/2013

Firstly I really enjoyed the low prices of this agent and this is why I was initially drawn. I then received a phone call from the employee cyrus who was nothing but delightful, polite and cheery, even when I got slightly confused. He did everything he could to help me out and was one of the nicest people I talked to on the phone who work for a big company. Normally travel agents get annoyed with my ditsyness and lack of experiance however cyrus was nothing but charming and helpful. I have... (read more)

“Bugs in the system”

Written on: 20/05/2013 by annoyed100 (1 review written)

Booked a flight to Nepal with them and the confirmation came through with different flight times to the ones I booked. I called them and a lady picked up in India, basically accusing me of being an idiot and having booked the wrong flights. Luckily no money had gone out to them and I cancelled the booking. I tried again a few hours later and their website wouldn't allow me to make my reservation without the 'optional' £80 insurance. I gave up after that. I'm feeling very relieved they don't...

Written on: 19/05/2013

After looking at numerous websites to find a reasonably priced return ticket to Trinidad, I was recommended Crystal Travel by a friend, and managed to find the cheapest ticket for a return flight to Trinidad on the website. The booking process was quick and easy and the website easy to navigate. I did however make a mistake as I did not know that my husbands email address was not valid anymore and that he had changed to a new one. I then called the after sales team to ask them to change the... (read more)

She detailed when the original email was sent, waited for me to check my old emails and spam box. When there was no sign of the original email she stayed on the phone until a replacement email was received, checked with me the details were correct and was thoroughly professional and friendly throughout.

Hi, This is my second time using the Crystal service. Now, on the second time, I've booked the flight online, but had a problem with the confirmation. Called the central and spoke to a person who confirmed the flight. As I didn't receive the e-ticket, I called again, and spoke to Cyrus who was very attentive and extremely helpful.

Hi, tried to book online, but was unsuccessful and the advisor called me straight back, literraly, less than 10 minutes after error message. I was impressed. He then helped me find a flight that I was happy with taking into account I didn't want a long waiting time, reasonable price, and flying from the same airport around December time. I must say, it was far easier than me going through in on the internet, and all, and I would certainly call him again for future flights. (read more)

I booked my ticket online at 3pm in the afternoon. At 10.30 pm I get a call from their Indian call centre stating the ticket price went up another £16 so booking could not be done, would I like to pay the new price. I asked them to cancel the booking. They are breaking the online booking contractual agreement. They are also getting our credit card details. They do need to be invesigated by traind standards. AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS. Other reviews are stating the same as me. Good luck... (read more)

Same experience as others--booked via Skyscanner, then as soon as they had my details, they got in touch saying the seats were no longer available, even though I could see on Skyscanner they were still there at the same price. I then had to spend half an hour on the phone convincing them to cancel my order while they tried to come up with ever more elaborate ways of getting me to keep my order with them (some of which involved the guy's supervisor whispering his lines word-for-word over his...

Written on: 06/05/2013 by HonoraryCalgarian

I used Skyscanner, which came up with Air Transat, and directed me to Crystal. I was then told I couldn't book online and told to call them. When I called, the price was higher than that online. I had no option but to use them. Two days later i had to book another flight to the same destination. This time Crystal online said the flight was not available but an upgrade could probably secure it, and to call them. So I went to Lastminute and booked online, no problem. I then got woken up by...

“ABSOLUTELY RUBBISH COMPANY! ”

Written on: 06/05/2013

I would advise anybody booking flight tickets to stay away from CRYSTAL TRAVEL as it is more hassle than it is worth. Originally they had advertised the ticket we bought for £555 but when we confirmed it, they suddenly charged me £581+£20 for booking fees, sending my bill to over £600!! I'm not even sure this is legal let alone morally acceptable. However as we were in urgent need of this flight due to a family funeral, we decided to let this lie when they fobbed us off with a pathetic... (read more)

I was booking a flight to China and was helped by an agent. He was friendly and very efficient and managed to solve my issue quickly and effectively for which I am very appreciative. He was quick in sending emails to me and had very good communication. The reason I wouldn't give 5 stars, and this has nothing to do with him, was the reason as to why my booking was not originally generated. By having to phone to discuss the flight I was charged an extra £20. In the grand scheme of the price... (read more)
