Ebookers Reviews

They are selling packages with missing information.
When a problem occurs, no one replies to you. No consideration to customers.
Just a selling site and no follow professionnal up. Not trusty at all.

Utterly awful. I booked a changeable flight and tried to change it about a week before my flight. It wasn't possible from their lame website, so after sending emails to 2 different email addresses I found on their website, I eventually called their Swiss number from my Swiss mobile phone from Australia. I WAS ON THE PHONE FOR AN HOUR before the guy told me it wasn't possible. So my changeable ticket was not. I asked the guy what email address I could use to email ebookers (Expedia) and he, the Expedia guy, WASN'T ABLE TO FIND ONE. Check the ebookers/Expedia websites for contact numbers and email addresses they're deliberately made hard to find and don't work when you do.

Expedia deliberately avoids customer support!

Hi,
We booked holidays (flight + hôtel) 2 months before our holidays and we payed Everything.
When we arrives in the hotel, we discovered that it has not been booked by the platform ebookers.
They propose as a relocation in one hotel mentioning that it was the only possible option, in a city very far away from the original one where we booked our first hotel. We were obliged to accept not to sleep on the streets. When we asked again to be relocated to the first city, they refused. We ended up spending our holidays in another city, because they failed to book our hotel in the first place, and to relocate us to that city, even though hotels where available at no extra cost for them, compared to the new hotel. We had a very bad customer experience. We do not recommend to use ebookers at all. Very bad customer service.
I spent 5 hours between chat/calls with them with no result.

Atrocious company. I've spent hours on their terrible Chat service trying to claim a genuine refund on a cancelled flight ticket (backed by the terms and conditions of purchase) and keep getting told it will be 7-10 days then 3-5 days....but nothing comes. There's plenty of other agencies you can buy tickets from and I'd definitely recommend you use an alternative!

You can book tickets, but you can never cancel your flights or change.

We had booked for Venice but due to bad weather, the Venice mayor had closed tourism. Even after emailing ebookers.ch well in advance they did not reply to my emails.

When I contacted Swiss Internation Airlines, they mentioned since I had booked from ebookers.ch I need to cancel with them only, otherwise, I would have got the option of changing the flight on different dates.

I would not even give one star. The worst ever booking experience. But one star is the lowest rating.

I have been spending hours to cancel or rebook a flight and now ebookers/expedia after waiting again 35 minutes has forwarded me to Iberia. Sorry you should shut down your company. I want my money back plus the money I have lost spending to get it solved. The experience is a 2 1/2 weeks experience. Compensation for pain and suffering. NOW

Part of a worldwide hotel scam. They sell you hotel with nice descriptions and pictures but its bait and switch and put you in a hell hole nothing like the pictures and without any of the facilities and refuse to give any refunds because of their policy on not giving refunds. Customer service is run from Indian and is really awful!! Never use this company if you value your money

Totally incompetent and rude customer service--ebookers.ch booked us on a flight to Tenerife plus rental car, however the arrival airport was different from the return airport--however, this was barely noticeable as the airport code differed by one letter. In order to return our rental car at the departure airport booked by ebookers, we have to pay an additional fee. This should have been clearly identified in the confirmation. DO NOT BOOK WITH EBOOKERS

someone contacted me about working with you but I think its too good to be true.

Again and again - ebookers are offering prices that are not available just to get up high in the ranking.
This time they offered a ticket for 170 CHF, when booking it, the price went up to 770 CHF - ridiculous.

No info about hotel cancellation

Booked a hotel, received a confirmation and the next day a message from the hotel via ebookers with advertising for the shuttle service.

A few days later I checked my account and found the booking canceled. Calle ebookers=> there was an issue with the card (might be, payment should have been made in September).

However, I would have expected an email/information regarding the credit card issue - so that I would have had a chance to provide other card details. Would have been a thing of a few minutes and it would have been done.

Or

If they just cancel directly I would have expected at least an information/email that the booking was cancelled.

Ebookers support 1st level was just "Your card was the problem" (repeatedly) and very impolite, not understanding my issue with not having received an information (might be that he was just not able to understand what I was saying as his German was very poor), according to the requested (English-speaking) supervisor a notification should have been sent - well, I received no email from the hotel directly or ebookers (also checked spam).

I'll cancel all my other reservations and will try to book with other providers in the future. That's really bad service...

No recalls, no refunds, nothing. Stuck in the line for far over an hour. When using their portal on the internet you get a reply to call, but you won't manage to reach someone. Very poor client service and refund policy.
