Not socially responsible

“Not socially responsible”

Written on: 11/04/2021 by Mothersx100 (1 review written)

For you who is considering booking a trip with GVI UK-
I advise you to do some research and read recent reviews about this company GVI UK, profiting from young people and students who were looking for a good volunteer trip. As a start you can search the FB page which is formed by parents and young students who have lost their money they paid for a trip with GVI which have been cancelled due to Covid.
There are many young people who have not got any refund from them and the way GVI has been responding and (not) communicating with us, customers, is distasteful, to put it mildly.
They are breaching the UK CMA Covid rules. They have been reported to UK ombudsman and the CMA and the Charity Commission for England & Wales.

I feel enormously sorry for the young students whom I have been in contact with regarding this. They are exhausted by efforts and correspondence with GVI that hasn’t reached anywhere. And this is a company claiming social responsibility and ethical behavior.

Please do some research before booking your trip.
