TRAVELSTART ISSUES ERRONEOUS BOOKING

I booked return flights Jnb to Cape Town & back for 2 people today. After specifying the dates, I selected the flights and pressed the Button BOOK THIS FLIGHT

The response: Server Error! We're sorry our server experienced a temporary error. Please try again in 30 seconds

I tried this many times -- to no avail !!

I logged into the travelstart website again, AND SELECTED THE SAME FLIGHTS. After paying r-- including R720 extra for luggage (1 suitcase each for each leg of the flight), and another about R300 extra for booking fee etc, I waited for confirmation. The site indicated that I may have to wait till midnight for my e-Tickets, but this actually came at 15:31 today. As soon as I prepared to print the e-Tickets, it was clear that the RETURN TIME WAS INCORRECT.

I PROMPTLY emailed them notifying them of this -- but have not received any response to any of the emails
