MakeMyTrip consumer fraud

They seem to be frauds and it seems that they are running an internet scam to collect personal information! They confirmed tickets, took credit card numbers and passport/drivers license information and finally not issuing the tickets. It is already more than 36 hours since I gave them all information. Every time I call them they say that the tickets are confirmed and they are going to be issued in an hour or so. Finally when I pressed more the last representative said that the ticket cannot be issued and they are working on it.

In the mean time I had cancelled the other tickets which I bought elsewhere. So I already lost money on the other tickets and now I have my personal information with some fraud artists. I am scared that they will misuse the information and plan to take legal recourse against them. Anybody else has similar experience with makemytrip?

Booked a ticket with them from phx-bom-phx and had to cancel the trip on doctor's advise. Sent them all the req documents and checked with the airlines that the refund has been issued but they have not credited my account. This company is a scam.

I booked my trip to india 3 months well in advance and I got it done by calling makemytrip customer care center . I have to go via Newark(8:30pm) to New Delhi . On the day of travel when I reached airport, I was handed over a boarding pass of the flight that had a scheduled departure at 5:20 PM 3+ hours later then my actual flight, when enquiring about it I was told that flight does not exist anymore . My complain is I was not intimated my makemytrip of the flight cancellation, if that would have been informed of that I would have made other arrangments to get going with my old schedule or readjest the old reservation .
I have now to bear inconvinience of waiting and makeing an 2 stop journey in a journey haveing 12 extra hour and having to incurr losses for not making it to old reservations and re doing the new once . because of this my entire travel has became a traumatic.

I had purchased a paper ticke online for travel from Bangalore to Delhi on April 9, 2017. As per the details in the website it was to be delivered in 3 business days.

I called them on April 2, 2017 to know the status and the answer was that the Airway Bill number is not available, we will call and give it you in the next 2 hours. There was no call through out the day . Called them again at 10.45am on April 3, 2017 . They told me systems are down for an hour, please call again at 11.30am.

Called up again at 11.35am and was told sorry for the inconvenience, this issue has been escalated to the concerned department . After a lot argument, they told me that the ticket had not been dispatched. I asked them to fax the ticket to me, they said that is not possible. My question was in case it is not delivered before the travel date what happens. The person said we will send a runner to the airport. On insisting that I need to talk to your manager, I was put on hold for 15mins after which the Manager says he will comeback in an hour. After an hour I get a call from them and the lady gives me the Airway bill number, saying that it has been dispatched today however it will be updated in the website by the evening. Even today after a day the Airway bill number is not updated. This is very very frustrating to have to wait for a ticket so long .

ATTENTION MR. BALA / MR BHASKAR

I am compelled to inform you that in the light of your incompetence, negligence and complete insensitivity to all my queries and issues. Till date I have not received any satisfactory response from any one of your executives
Let me list the people who spoke to me right from day one

1. Mr Nitin
2. Ms Navpreet
3. Mr Rohit
4. Ms Anchita
5. Mr Bhaskar
6. Mr Gursimran
7. Mr Balaji

I would like to list again what happened

Makemytrip confirmed through email on 29th March, the following:

Departure:
Jet Airways 9W-479 Mumbai – Goa 0540 hrs, 2nd April, 2017.
Status: confirmed, PNR no EABUF

Return:
Kingfisher Airlines IT 337 Mumbai – Goa 0630 hrs, 4th April, 2017.
Status: confirmed, PNR no EOAEYR

We arrived at the airport at the kingfisher counter at the Goa airport for our CONFIRMED return flight, only to be told our tickets had been VOIDED, on the 28th of March itself, BY MAKEMYTRIP .
I called their toll free line from my mobile from the airport and was on hold for 8 precious minutes before I managed to speak to a Mr Nitin, who was unable to help us and put us on hold for over 10 minutes. I called twice more and spoke to Ms Navpreet and then Mr Rohit. who were neither apologetic nor helpful. They all promised to call us back. They did not.
Eventually finding myself and my family stranded at Dabolim Airport with no other way home, I was forced to purchase 6 tickets on Go Air.

FOR 29 HOURS POST MY CALLS... NO RESPONSE... I called again and spoke to a Miss Anchita who connected me to a Mr Bhaskar who said that he will call back in an hour.. for 3 hours no response.. when they did call i was out of the room and they called only once...

I wait a whole day and send a complaint by mail.

A Mr. Gursimran calls me and says that they did try to contact me
ONCE...

A Mr. Balaji calls later the same evening 6th of April to offer me Rs. 2017/- as compensation.
If I was angry before..Now I am thoroughly insulted by the rudeness and audacity of your executive.

We set a time of 11 AM on the 7th of April for YET another senior executive to call.. it is now 3.30 PM!

Since my time, my complaint, my issues are of no value in your eyes I have been compelled to take this matter to the following people
1. Ms Vinayaka .. senior reporter MUMBAI MIRROR
2. Consumer Court
3. Indian Consumer Complaints Forum.

You will shortly be receiving a copy of this e mail by speed post.

Thanking you for your "prompt" and "concerned' response

I have a very bitter experience with makemytrip and I would like to share it with everyone so that they won’t get into the trap. I booked a return ticket between Boston USA and Chennai India on specific dates. I was fully aware that those tickets were non-refundable and I could just change the dates if I want by paying additional charges. Then after a couple of months, I decided to change my dates of travel and called the customer care no of Makemytrip and asked to change the dates. After holding me for a long time, the executive came back and said there were no flights available for the return date but i could change the date for the onward journey. Then I told him that I was ready to go ahead with onward journey and I would make my own arrangements for my return journey and asked him to re-schedule the date of my onward journey. Once again he out the call on hold for about 15 mins and came back saying Makemytrip would provide full refund for the booking even though it was a non-refundable ticket and asked me to go ahead with a fresh booking (with a different airline) through them.

I was bit happy that I would not lose my money and made a fresh booking for my new dates and asked them to cancel the older booking. After that I did not hear anything from them for more than week. Then I called them again and to my surprise I was told that my old booking was non-refundable if I cancel it. I have explained the whole story to the guy and at last he said that he would like to confirm that I was offered a full-refund by listening to the audio recordings and then would get back to me. I agreed to that and I was expecting a reply from Makemytrip. But as usual, they didn’t turn up. So I called them again after a week, and once again explained everything to the new guy who answered my call. At last he agreed to process my refund request and sent me instructions on how to apply for a refund.

I was bit relieved and submitted all the required documents to them to proceed with my refund request. Even after that I didn’t hear anything from them. So once again I called them and asked for the refund status. Now, whenever I call, they have a standard answer "We will let you know the status in another 48 hours". And I have been calling them for the past one month in vain.

I had booked an air ticket from mumbai to banglore on kingfisher airlines via makemytrip.com(MakeMyTrip Booking ID - NF251171979074), Due to some reason I cancelled my ticket (Cancellation Number - IN1012R0026689). Makemytrip prmised me that the amount will get refunded within 7 days. After 10 days I wrote a mail to them as the money was not refunded yet. I was given a Reference ID [protected], but nothing was done after that.
Again I wrote mails regarding the issue (Reference ID [protected] ) but nothing happened.
I'm very much disappointed with this, and I'm requesting the people not to book their tickets through makymytrip, instead we should book directly through airline official websites.

I am been fooled by Make my trip people as i have purchased Kerala package and also made full payment, since then they aren't providing me Vouchers and other details as discussed over the phone.

Booking Id:
Booking ID 1: IN1207B07595 ( full payment made)
Booking ID 2 :IN1207B07597 ( full payment made)

I have coordinated with Mr. Rishi Sharma & Mr Sarvesh Dixit for booking and they keep saying that we will get back to you but aren't updating me with any details

Please confirm with them whether our booking is confirm or not or do we have to co-ordinate with other travel portal for new booking ...

Same thing happened with me. Did you get this resolved?

I booked a roundtrip ticket from Orlando, US to Chennai, India through MakeMyTrip for travel on May 17th 2017 for $1425. My onward journey was a three-leg flight of which the first part from Orlando to Newark was delayed for 5 hours making me miss my connecting flight. When I called up MakeMyTrip they asked me to go on to Newark to see if my second flight was also delayed and I did the same. My connecting flight was on time and so I missed it and when I called up MakeMyTrip they said they can book a new flight for me and cancel the old ticket. They asked me to pay for the new ticket and that the old ticket cost will be reimbursed so I ended up paying $1650 ($225 more than the original amount) for the new ticket. To this day, 8 months later, I haven't received a refund for the original ticket. I have contacted MakeMyTrip over 30 times but never given correct information.
Finally on Sept 7th they sent me an email saying that they were going to reimburse me only $898 for the ticket and when I said that was unacceptable, I did not get any more replies from MakeMyTrip. Later I sent three legal notices to MakeMyTrip, US via registered post but did not receive any reply for the same as well.

A $898 refund for a $1425 ticket that I did not use is unacceptable. Do let me know if you did figure a way out of this issue.

MakeMyTrip scam and cheating

This is regarding a little trouble that I am facing with Make My Trip. This is in reference with my booking ID: IN0804B04207. I had booked two return tickets on Deccan Airways for Delhi to Leh (2 May) and From Leh to Delhi in Deccan Airways (5th May) through makemytrip. Our return flight got canceled and hence I had to cancel my ticket. I was informed at the Airport that makemytrip would be refunding the cancellation money to me. After I returned, on 6th May, I spoke to makemytrip representative Swati Babbar, who gave me a landline number, to put in my request for refund. I tried that number for one week but no one answered the call, I believe that is number which is given to the customer just to fool around. On 10th May, I traveled all the way to their Gurgaon office where the receptionist introduced to an executive Gayatri, who again had no answer for me and I was returned saying someone would get in touch with me in next one hour. In fact when I told the receptionist that nobody was taking call on that number given to me, she was not shocked, it seemed that she was aware that no body answers that number. Till 16th May, nobody from Make My Trip contacted me for the same, I then tried calling the number through which you can book ticket with Makemytrip where I explained my problem to one of their executive and he then informed that our refund would reach us in next 10 days. Its more than 15 days now and we have not yet received any communication from their end to inform what the update on the same is.

With this experience, I have realized that makemytrip.com do not have a strong process in place for refunds and they have no resource for consumer redressal, I think they need to take a stalk of the things immediately and work accordingly to improve the process. I would like to request if you could help me out as I have failed to get any answer from them.

I booked a Igloo nature resort for the dates oct 01, 2008 to oct 03, 2008.

Makemytrip.com sends me a voucher with the booking status "Confirmed". Before 6 days of my journey [ actually today ], I called the Igloo resort people and asked for the status they said the rooms are not available with their own resort and they can arrange for some other resort.

When I call the makemytrip.com they said the hotel room is booked and I don't need to worry on that. But after some time the manager from Igloo Nature resort called me and said there is no room is available on oct 02, so I need to stay in a another hotel.

But still makemytrip.com customer care is telling that my room is booked, if I cancel the room now they will take one night amount for this.

I can give the booking id which i have done with makemytrip.com if anybody think this is a fake.

Recently I am having worst ever airline booking experience with makemy trip. On Jul 11 I talked to some agent (probably based in India) for a booking from Los Angeles to Bangalore between 24-26 Jul dep. They booked it taking my credit card details for 4 seats. Within 10 mts based on the iternarary on checkmytrip, based on their reservation no. I found that teh dep date was jul23, impossible for us ti leave due to a meeting in Los Angeles. I called immediately (10 minutes aft. 'booking') and told them not to go ahed with this booking nor go ahead with charging. They had not yet charged and they agreed for that. Also they told me that they will send an e-mail requesting for my photo ID etc. in an e-mail to go ahead. I told them that I will call back in few hours if I want to go ahead with this booking. Later I called my credit card company to make sure they had not charged and informed them about this episode. There was no charge then, and they made a note regarding that. I thought the matter was over. This was on friday Jul 11, 08.

On Monday Jul 16, there was a phone message regarding some payment from makemytrip! On calling, I found that they have gone ahead and charged my credit card for 4 tickets on the date which is not possible for me to travel! And will charge penalty for cancellation/change ($200/head=800$ US). I told them what happened! The guy customer service guy was very rude and told me that indeed I have authorised them to charge as I didn't call back!

I am still dealing with this case! Many hours of phone calls/chats they have same song, since I didn't call them again they went ahead and charged teh wrong date departure!

I am contemplating some legal action for thi skind of illegal activities by makemytrip.com. Being in USA for 20 years I am shocked to know the kind of crudality and lack of respect for customers by this kind of company In India. And the assumption that they can take customers for a ride causing them thosounds of dollors of loss to make some commissions!

Do anyboduy have similar experience?

MakeMyTrip unauthorised cancellation of tickets

I have booked air tickets for 4 persons (self, my wife and my parents) to go to Tirupati from Vizag. All the tickets were confirmed and fare collected by Makemytrip. To my surprise when we check-in on 20/04/08 at Vizag Airport, Deccan Airways informed that the booking is there for only for 3 persons. On further check by airlines, based on the printout I have, they found that my mother's booking has been cancelled by someone from Makemytrip. I called Makemytrip Delhi; after a lot of time to get thro'' the (useless) interactive voice system, I got their representative ( MrMicheal) who is of no help except keeping me for 45 minutes on telephone for giving some excuse that two names found same hence one seat was cancelled. They did even check with me before doing this not informed me. This is the height if stupidity ( my mother's name is Lakshmi and my wife's name is Vijaya Lakshmi hence one get cancelled ?) and I had to drop my wife as the flight was full and could not buy a ticket even to get a seat for her. As this being a family pilgrimage trip, traveling with old parents, I had to do this. This had created lot of rift and misunderstanding which I am suffering due to the fault of Makemytrip who are irresponsible & callous. Beware of these people. On top this there is no communication from these characters and my 4th ticket airfare is still not returned.( which of-course does no patch-up what these people have done to me).

It’s a night mare and think a while when you deal with Makemytrip. I do not how and why these people are allowed to do business and how I redress my anguish.

MakeMyTrip refund of the ticket never booked

Hi All,
This is to make everyone of you aware of the day light robbery by makemytrip, the famous airline ticket booking portal.

On 10th of Feb'08, I tried to book an airline ticket from Ahmedabad to Mumbai with GO AIR through makemytrip using my AXIS bank netbanking. Though the amount of Rs 2525 got debited from account but I didnt get the ticket. When I contacted the customer care on 11th Feb, after making me wait for 25 mins on the phone, I was told there is no such booking. After being threatened of CNBC, makemytrip acknowledged the booking and revealed the booking ID FLT1182599.

I contacted their customer care several times(read 30 times) during next 12 days, and every time I was made to wait for at least 20mins just to get the answer to my query "When will you refund my money?" and every time, without any exception, I was told "Mr Chandwani , Just wait for X hours and the amount will be credited to your account." and that X just increased from 24 hours to 20 days. Even indianrail website (a government concern) returns money within four days, and these shameless robbers take 20 days to respond and even after that they say they cant tell exactly when the amount will get refunded.
Even till today, I have not got my refund.
It simply shows shear inefficiency and callous attitude towards customers and I believe they should be realized what we, the customers, can do. They cannot get away by cheating, I should say robbing, a customer.
ITS THE HIGH TIME WE TAKE THE RESPONSIBILITY TO SHOW THAT THESE PIRATES CANNOT GET AWAY EASILY LOOTING US.
I SINCERELY REQUEST YOU GUYS OUT THERE, PLEASE DO NOT BOOK YOUR TICKETS THROUGH MAKEMYTRIP. MAKEMYTRIP OPENLY CHEAT/LOOT ITS CUSTOMERS AND MAKEMYTRIP TAKE PRIDE IN IT.

regards,
Kamal

They inter-changed my first and last names while booking my ticket to India and hence I lost $600.00 towards cancellation charges and I was made to pay $1, 020.00 more for booking the same ticket on the ground that fares went up. Ever since, I have been demanding refund of my loss as it was solely and squarely due to their fault, but they don't respond. This is a fraudulent company, cheating the gullible travellers and pocketing money by hook or crook. Beware og Make My Trip and be wary and keep away from it.

I booked a trip to India via Make My Trip (MMT), it involved a change of 3 flights. I had to cancel that booking but intended to use it within expiration period of 6 months, moved to another city but still planned to go back to previous city just to utilize the tckt. So, I was going to take 4 flights to get to India and another 3 while returning. But I was willing to do that to avoid mental trauma of talking with MMT (previous experiences had already left a bitter taste) However, few days later, my health got really worse and because the path to recovery is a long process, I asked for a refund based on my health documents. For 3-4 weeks they refused saying I wasn't hospitalized so I wasn't eligible. Then I was asked to talk with their person in NYC, he showed his concerns but then for good 3 weeks assured me I'll get a refund check ASAP. Then he backed out saying the airlines will instead give me a direct tckt to India so I don't have to travel 4 flights. He assured me that it is MMT's responsibility if things go wrong. I called several times on their toll free #s, each time a different reply with a patent "I apologize for the inconvenience, someone will get back to you within an hour/few hours" but that never happened. On the last day of the ticket expiration date, here I am writing the review. The mental trauma of dealing with these guys, losing your money- it's not good. IF I had known I won't get my money back or a new tckt, irrespective fo my health, I'd try to travel- it'd be a headache for the co-passengers and airlines to look after me, who cares! I was trying to be a good citizen by not bothering people around me. Anyways, I've lost my money, time, energy and lot of sleep waiting nights for their calls. I've voice recordings of all convos, their stupid/insensitive idea of searching who my dad is, including his professional work ID in our email convos when I never told them to do so (and my dad doesn't work there anymore but the company was still scanning his emails so imagine a woman's embarrassment that her dad's ex-coworkers know of her personal health issues) So anyways, taking this matter to the court now. I'm sure they're used to going to the court, being a big co, will have the resources but still, I don't mind doing everything I can to reach out to public and tell them to stay away from these rogues. Their exec tells me "you can email us your feedback on this ID" I'm like, who writes to OSama saying "you killed too many people, here is my feedback for the damage you caused in my life" Seriously?

MakeMyTrip no refund!

We bought tickets from makemytrip.com agent name was Vijay Singh in september 2007. Tthey gave us ticket # over the phone. We went to the airport an hour early from our departure but they did not let us on the plane may be they oversold the tickets. After we called our agent they told us to stay at the airport and they will book us on another flight. We sat there for 19 hours and finally they told us you have to buy ticket again .because those tickets are garbage. After all that we came back without flying. We asked them for refund $2900 we paid and they said Jet airways got the money. We checked with our credit card company jet airways took money from our credit card since we never authorized them. We authorize makemytrip.com. Jetairways been sending us person to person even we talk to there head of jetairways name Ruby Chadda been telling us she will call us back, but its been four months we have not got our money back. Such airlines suppose to be thrown out of the U.S.A.

MakeMyTrip scam and cheating!

Last Year, in October,2006, I bought a return ticket from Miami to Mumbai, at $1222. They were paper tickets which were supposed to be sent to my Florida address. Since the paper tickets never came to my house (they said it was sent by USPS, and they do not take customer's sign for verification), I asked for a cancellation. MakemyTrip said that if I canceled and bought new tickets through them, they would ensure that my refund is obtained at the earliest, and without any deductions.
Today is 25th Dec, 2007, ie., 1 year and 2 months, and I still haven't got any refund from MakemyTrip. I have called them minimum 50 times, and everytime I am told that it would be refunded in just a few more days. I have $1222 locked up with them for 1 year 2 months, without any interest, and without even a confirmation of when the money will be refunded.
I intend to apply to Consumer Court for refund of $1222 + extra because of the late refund and the money lost due to interest + reimbursement for mental stress.. That time, $ was Rs.45+, while $ is now Rs.39 only.

If any one has any better ideas, please let me know. I can be reached at [protected].

MakeMyTrip.com

The business ethics of the company makemytrip.com is wrong. It is impossible to trust the officials when the communications are in conflict? Tue, May 4, 2010 4:27:20 PMMakeMyTrip Booking Reference FLTINT100091532410. The communication says tech error and failed booking...but the officials say that you deposit the balance money of Rs 85000/- to obtain the booking. There is no confirmation of the booking...no itinery ...only booking reference...and Rs 5000/- booking amount is withdrawan from the account.

MakeMyTrip nightmare experience!

MakeMyTrip.com - www.makemytrip.com

I had one of the worst experiences with MakeMyTrip.com and the below details might be lengthy to read but its important to emphasize to the Makemytrip Management on the mental and physical torture a Makemytrip.com Customer had to go through thanks to irresponsible actions from Makemytrip.com.

On 1st Nov'07 I booked an air ticket via MMT for the Mumbai - New Delhi sector for 2nd Nov07. I received the e-ticket in the mail with PNR details etc. Since I had booked it via my cell phone and was around the airport I actually went to the Airport counter for a printout of the ticket.

I was shocked when they told me there is no person called "Tarun Mishra" booked on their morning flight and even the PNR number as per them was invalid. I then called up the Makemytrip Call centre and was told the Flight was shifted to 9 AM Indian airlines instead of the 7.20 Go Air as mentioned in the itinerary details sent by email to me. Was MMT waiting for us to call them about this change ?

I feel cheated and extremely disgusted on how firstly we were not informed on the change in flight and secondly how can you change a flight after sending an itinerary ?

We finally had to buy a new Mum-Del air ticket from the GO Air counter for Rs 13600/- besides the Rs16000/- we had already paid MMT for the Mumbai-Delhi round trip. We were told we need to scan the new ticket details to MMT and in 10 days we'll get the refund of Rs13600/- which I hope we do get without any further physical or mental torture.

Had we not gone to the counter the previous night and instead had just taken the print out of the email received by MMT directly on 2nd Nov for the flight we would have never got the flight and would have lost alot of business due to such careless and irresponsible actions from MMT.

I read an on-line interview of Deeps and following is a transcript from the same. We want to be the brand of choice and the first port of call for anyone wishing to buy travel online. Clearly, customers will check others, but top of mind recall is a big thing. Also, repeat customers in the domestic business are significant and we will be leveraging our customer database for that.

My question to you is after reading the above experience do you really thing Makemytrip can be a brand choice? Can it be the first port anyone can depend upon when wanting to buy travel online?

I agree with you that NEVER EVER BUY OR MAKE YOUR BOOKING ON LINE WITH Make my trip. THEY ARE THE BIGGEST CHEATS POSSIBLE AND PLEASE PASS THE WORD AROUND. I am sure you can hear the frustration in my voice. I recently booked a refundable ticket on Indigo from BANGALORE to CHENNAI AND BACK BANGALORE on the 18th of december and return was on the 26th of December. To my shock when I arrived 2 hours before the flight, I found out that they booked my departure city wrong. The departure that they had booked was from Chennai to Bangalore and back for the 18th Dec and return on the 26th from Bangalore.
I called them from the airport as I had time and they told me they were positive that I had made the mistake. In my print out I never checked the departure dates because on my computer it was right when I booked.

In their confirmation email to me says on the top BANGALORE/CHENNAI/BANGALORE but below it was Chennai to Bangalore and back. When I complained that it was their mistake, they agreed and asked me to book another ticket to Chennai and that they will give me full refund back for both my tickets as it was their fault.

I arrived in Chennai and forwarded all the details of E tickets to them and they promised they will immediately take care of it for me. I am back in Bangalore and I have called them many many times and spoke to two of their mangers, Mansish Sharma and Tushar Kapil and both of them said that that after checking with their technicians said that it was my mistake and they WILL NOT REFUND my money back.

Now this is the icing on the cake. I had booked refundable ticket and they knew that I had taken another flight to Chennai and back and they say that they will not refund me because of noshow in Bangalore on the 26th. ARE THEY SO DUMB! Writing this email is making my head spin. Now I have to go to the higher authorities and it taking up all my time. Can someone tell me how to use the consumer court to complain about this injustice caused.

NEVER EVER BOOK ON MAKE MY TRIP PLEASE. THEY ARE UN PROFESSIONALS AND VERY UNETHICAL

I have lost 5500Rs and extra Rs 7400 on my other ticket because of no fault of mine.
THANKS!
WHAT A GREAT WAY START THE NEW YEAR

I am reposting my recent message as it some how missing here after I posted it!

On Jul 11, 2008 I asked makemytrip.com agent to see if I can get a ticket for 4 in teh tiem window 24 jul-26 Jul to travel from LAX to Bangalore and back on aug 22. I gave my credit card details forteh possible payment. After I was told on phone the code to check teh iternrary I went o makemytrip.com and found that the dep date was 23 Jul, impossible for me to leave from here (Los Angeles) due to a prior commitment. I called within 10 minutes and talked with the same agent and requested that person not to proceed with this reservation any more. Not to go ahead and charge. There was no charge at that time, as confirmed by my credit card company. They agreed not to charge to my credit card and not to proceed with this reservation until I call back again. I thought the matter ended there. This was on Friday, Jul 11, 08.

On monday Jul 14, there was a message in my answering machine by makemytrip peple regarding a payment! I called back and explained everything. The lady who was relatively polite transferred me to a customer service guy. This guy was very arrogant and impolite. Instead of listining to my complaint he simply said since you didn't call back again, we went ahead with the reservation and charged your credit card! I told him they were not authorized as I had very clearly instructed them not to go ahead with the reservation even before they had charged! Only reason they did was they had access to my credit card details, but no authority to charge!

I told them to verify my claim by checking the recorded conversation to check my claim! Insted of doing that they send me an e-mail ticket at wrong date! This was the first e-mail ever from them!

I have informed my credit card company regarding this unauthorized charge by makemytrip.com and also am exploring other legal action to expose these kind of practices by makemytrip.com ! They are adamant on charging penalty for cancellation or take this ticket with wrong dep. date. Do any other have same experience like this?

People pl. beware of giving your credit card details to these guys! Irrespective of your approval they charge causing you lots of headache. I am in USA for 20 yrs. and such action by a company will be taken very seriously. I am sure teh same is going to happen to makemytrip.com once this kind of scam is exposed!

MakeMyTrip double charge for booked ticket

I booked a passage New York- Delhi- New York for my son Mrigank studying in India using Make My Trip, the carrier involved is Finnair and the reservation code is YYWL62. My Credit Card was debited twice for the price (USD 991). After following up a number of times Make My Trip refunded a part of the excess amount realized but are not responding to my mails for settling the balance amount- being the exchange difference (as the dollar had depreciated against the rupee which is the billed currency for my credit card). I have claimed the amount many times and even though they verbally assure that it is being settled I am yet to receive any amounts even after 2 months!

They charged me for a ticket that was neither confirmed nor sent to me. Now they are telling me that it is somehow my fault and that they will only give me half of what I paid to them back... Bottom line NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH THIS UNSCRUPULOUS COMPANY and SPREAD THE WORD.
