Horrible service with no communication and no refund that it due.

I had book with Safarinow and paid the full amount for accommodation in Ballito. Unfortunately my mum and sister was in an accident so I initially wanted to move the dates which proved to be such a hassle as not one replies to emails and you cannot get a hold of Safarinow telephonically. I eventually emailed all of their email addresses and someone contacted me and I immediately cancelled the booking. I was requested to provide bank details for the refund but here we are 2 weeks later with no refund and still no one replies toy your emails. I used Safarinow previously and had no issues. This experience is totally pathetic and I not be using them again or recommend them as a service provider.

Hi Thivashen 

An agent has been in touch earlier today and is working through the query with you, we hope to resolve the issue soon. We are awaiting some feedback from the property owner in this regard.

Hi  Thivashen 
A portion of your deposit was settled to the property, we have requested a refund from them and kept you copied in to these emails. We will continue to follow up on this request.

I have received a fraction of the refund, thank you. When can I expect the rest? This is ridiculous as I only get responses if I post here. Please remember that I have made the booking with SafariNow and I have paid you not the establishment or owner of the property. I expect that SafariNow pays me the full amount and you can get your money back from the establishment.

Good day,

One of our agents is working to get the rest of the refund to you. Safarinow has refunded our portion of the payment received.
