Refund Assistance Please

Good morning,

I trust that this mail finds you well. I made a booking on the travel start website the 12/02/2019 for tickets to East London and back from Cape Town. Since making the booking I have received tickets with the incorrect date on them.

I tried to get assistance by using the ********** email address that was provided. The response that I got was to contact the airline directly to get the issue sorted. When I contacted the airline they said that the flights advertised by Travel Start were incorrect and that the fault is by the website and not the airline.

I have app**** for a refund from the airline but they responded yesterday (19/02/19) saying that are unable to assist me since the problem was with the travelstart website.

The dates that I originally wanted tickets for was the 16/02/2019 but got issued tickets for the 06/04/2019 instead.

I have screen shotted the flights that I booked as they displayed on my laptop the day I made the booking and it clearly states the 16/02/2019 not the 06/04/2019.

I would like a refund on the tickets purchased as this whole ordeal has put me through a lot of unnecessary trouble and the discrepancy on the tickets is not from my side but from the false adverti*****t of flights through the website. This whole booking experience through the website has been extremely unpleasant and unprofessional and I would like the matter resolved as soon as possible. Regards, Amber

Reviewer Update
Since the issue of the dates being incorrect on my booking Melony has been extremely helpful throughout the process of trying to help me with my complaint. She is the only person who has actually taken the time to listen to what I have to say and not keep referring me away like some of the people I have dealt with since making the booking in my previous review. I would like to thank her for the exceptional five star customer service she has provided me thus far. I would change the rating of the complaint to five stars based on the performance and service received from Melony at Travelstart. Regards, Amber
