Horrible Service and Holiday planned by Flight Centre

Would never recommend Flight Centre to plan a special overseas holidays, myself and my husband used Flight Centre to plan our 10 year wedding anniversary in October this year.

Our trip was horrific, from poor communication to horrific accommodation arrangements not confirmed by our travel consultant, it was a nightmare, when contacting the customer services, they only threw terms and conditions in our faces and took no responsibility or even tried to compensate us for the incompetence resulting in a horrific 10 year wedding anniversary in Greece. I will never in my life use their services as the consultants are obviously poorly trained making arrangements without logic, however the worst part was the response from the customer care which I will post. from a large company like Flight Centre it is obvious that they do not care for their loyal clients, they want to make a quick sale and the after service is shocking.

Response from Customer care after expressing and listing all of my complaints, 5 destinations and we had an issue at each and every place we went to, no empathy from Customer Care even after I expressed the sadness of a failed 10 year wedding anniversary - the service was shocking to say the very least - please do not plan your special occasion with this company.image.png 32.16 KB

Good Day

Your customer experience team have responded to my concerns, however this is unsatisfactory and shocking to say the very least. **** empathy and now acknowledgement or accountability, Terms and Conditions gets used when you want to cover incompetence only. Worst customer service ever received and this after your company failed us on our special occasion. Your consultant ignoring our calls for a whole day, waiting on information and boarding passes for early morning flights, being told that " he also has a life " , very unprofessional. Having been booked into a room with stacker beds on our anniversary date, no apologies no form of accountability just pointing to terms and conditions and blaming 3rd parties, the list is to long... Horrible, horrible, horrible.
