On sept 19, 2014 i booked a return flight ticket (Passenger name soo jxx xxxx & ou yxxx xx xxx) travel on 28th december 2014 @ 2.50pm from subang airport (Flight number od1248) to kota bharu. Return on 29th december 2014 @ 9.10pm from kota bharu (Flight number od1251) to subang airport . (Attached electronic tickets)

The flight has been re-timed multiple times as below :-
1) email sent to me on 6/10/2014, flight number od1248 re-timed to depart at 1420 hrs. *attached no.1
2) email sent to me on 15/10/2014, flight number od1248 moved to od1246 depart at 1745 hrs. *attached no. 2
3) email sent to me on 27/12/2014 (Less than 24 hours notice), re-timed to depart at 1355hrs. *attached no.3

In the end, i missed my flight due to the "over-wheeling" re-timed, especially with the less than 24 hours notice ! They changed the departure time from 1745 hrs become 1355hrs, with less than 24 hours notice ! This is totally unacceptable ! This airline is insane !

Can you imagine, i am suppose to chair an important meeting at kota bharu with some foreign vips. Due to this unethical airline, i have to reschedule the meeting over and over again ! In the end, i missed my flight due to the last minutes notice from this disreputable airline !

On 28th december, after i had missed my flight. I called up malindo air- customer careline. Spoke to one of the customer agent about my situation. The agent and the management decided to let me re-schedule my flight.

On 6/3/2015, i sent an email to malindo customer care to change my reservation to depart from subang airport to kota bharu on 2/5/2015 @ 12noon. (Attached no.4) no reply till i sent another email on 17/3/2015. (Attached no.5) on the same day, one of the agent called me and told me they can't reschedule my flight. I am totally disappointed with that kind of dishonor reply an airline provider.

I wrote to them again on 17/3/2015. (Attached no.6). Then i received three calls from different different agent, to name one of the agent is mr waren. All promise to call back after they spoke to their management, but i never receive their calls. I sent them another email on 25/3/2015 (Attached no.7) no reply till now.

Hello I bought 2 tickets just before Covid hit to fly to Bali with my son in July 2020. I have been sending emails to the airline for over two years to get a credit not a refund because I still want to take my son to Bali. $850 is alot of money for me as I’m a single Mum. Please help

Our fligt od 281 from kul to ccu has been delayed indefinetly. Passengers are starving at kul airport.
It would be kind if you could give some refreshments till the flight arrived as dinner time has also passed.
Secondly, no clear status is being passed to the waiting customers.

I booked 2 flight tickets then I have got some change of plans so i cancelled them on the website and received an email to acknowledge the receipt of the cancellation request and that the refund should occur in 45 days time. Now, it has been more than 65 days and nothing has been refunded and nobody contacted me!

My luggage was broken and lost a wheel when I'm landed at Taiwan airport. I could not able to find any Malindo customer support there. My luggage was in good condition when I dropped in Kuala Lumpur. I need to claim for my loss. Please advise this issue. Thank you.

I'm a pure vegetarian. In my previous flight (158), they arranged the veg food for me but for this flight, they said, I should order the veg food prior. This is not good as not every one is a non vegetarian lover. So air company cannot consider this thing. They should provide the facilities to all since we are paying a lot.

I felt very disappointed when I've given my honest feedback to Malindo Air so they could at least acknowledge their mistake and improve their customer service. Now after a week still there is no response from them and I came across so many complaints on their facebook page which are left unattended. They only respond to general complaints, which are very generic responses or perhaps one specific template. There is no human touch to their customer service. Below is my email which I sent through their website feedback form & also submitted through their facebook page.

Flight no. OD131
Ticket Ref no. [protected]

Hi Malindo Air team,

I would like to escalate & lodge a complaint against your customer service. I’ve made 2 calls and also visit to Subang Jaya airport, total of 3 touch points just to change the date of my sister’s flight ticket. All of 3 touch points have given me a different & incorrect information & the way customer service personnel has handle the call was rude and no professionalism to facilitate the customers.

I’ve made 2 calls & the details are below:

1st Call:
Date: 25/08 time: 3:07pm spoken to Mira and she has told me that I’ve to pay the difference which is 298+30 = total 328 to be exact and I can pay credit card details to make the changes. I told her that will call back as I need to confirm with my sister.

2nd Call:
Date: 25/08 time: 3:38pm spoken with Rosana and she has told me that I’ve to pay RM700+ to do the changes, when I inform her that my brother is at Subang airport and they are asking for RM476 to make the changes. She said if they are asking lesser might as well do it from there, is it the way to speak with your customers? While providing a wrong information.

We finally paid 476 to Malindo Air counter at Subang airport and complete the assignment. It is very painful to see that we rely on Malindo Air to travel and they deal in such a manner. Kindly listen to the call and improve your customer service and if you are unable to track the call, I have recorded calls which I can send you.

Why I am taking the pain to write is because this is a return flight from Pakistan to Malaysia. We aren’t flying on our national Airline PIA and chosen Malindo Air to seek a better service and also when we check online Malindo claim to charge no fee for changes in date & the reference of website is: http://www.malindoair.com/lk/no-date-change-fee However we’ve paid RM476

A very bad experience!
