Air India promised to issue refund in 21 days from sending them request. its been over a month still refund is awaited.

Mail to Air India

Hello Sir/Madam

I am writing this email in reference to by booking with Air India (Vancouver to Delhi) which was scheduled to be flying on 4th august but is no more flying on 4th August (probably due to extension of travel restriction)

BOOKING REFERENCE- JYF7J
ETICKET# - 098 [protected]
DEPARTURE DATE & TIME- 4 AUGUST 2021 @ 10:15 hrs
Departure from: Vancouver (YVR)
Traveller name: Gurjot Sandhu

I received the trailing email for reschedule, but the rescheduled date doesn’t work for me. I called the Helpline and they managed to cancel my booking and advised me to email for full REFUND.

Kindly refund the full amount.

Thanks & Regards
Gurjot Sandhu

    Air India has not refunded my tickets which were cancelled due to Covid 19. I have been waiting and writing for the past 1 1/2 years. No one has responded to phone calls or emails.

    I got my refund within three months (Rs.7000). Do not loose hope. You need to continuously pursue the case with them. Customer care guys of most of the companies are less effective now a days. Most of the time they do not pick up and even if they pick up they have standard answers which is not what you are looking for. Complaints through Social media portals, emails and letter send to them through registered posts are the ways. Please keep record of all the transactions. Use standard legal format when you write to them. I understand the pain that each genuine customer goes through when the company does not respond correctly. All the Best and hope your issue is resolved soon!

      Not refunding money for cancelled ticket for last 1 year

      I had booked return tickets through Air India customer care[protected] for the travel of my wife and daughter from Toronto to Kolkata, India. The flights were scheduled for 23rd August, 2020. However due to COVID, the Indian government cancelled the flights. So I got the tickets cancelled on 17th August but since then I have not been refunded a single penny. I have followed up via email and phone several times in the last one year but...

      Good Afternoon
      I booked airindia flight AI9645 Dehradun to Pantnagar for dated 18 Mar'2021. Airindia canceled the flight due to bad weather. I called and mailed you many times for the refund. Last time on 15 July'2021 escalation number was also generated

      (Escalation No:[protected]

      Flight details are

      Booking Reference: JHE24
      Flight No: AI 9645

      Pl refund the money as soon as possible. This is a mental harassment by Air India and I am fed up and may think for some legal action in due course of time.

            My complaint no. 10626444 for a refund against cancelled flight tickets is still not resolved. It's more than 2 month since I lodged the complaint while I was informed that the refund will reflect on my credit card/ account within 21 days.

            Background: I had booked flight from Bikaner to Delhi along with a connecting flight from Delhi to Mumbai for 2nd June 2021 through Air India website. When I reached Bikaner (Nal) airport, I was informed that due to bad weather and low visibility, flight AI 9834 will be delayed or cancelled and I won't be able to catch the next Air India flight AI 0805 also. There was no other option available on the same day for rescheduling. Therefore, Air India staff suggested that I can opt for cancellations of both connecting flights and will get FULL REFUNFD.
            AI flight tickets:
            1. Bikaner to Delhi (PNR - Y20RB) ticket amount Rs. 4, 742/-
            2. Delhi to Mumbai (PNR - Z9H14) ticket amount Rs. 5, 326/

                    They said refund will be credited in 2 weeks. It is more than a month. Tried to reach customer support multiple times. They don't respond emails and you will never be able to connect the customer support number. At the end they are not reachable and I am not getting any update as well on my refund. Please help.

                          In connection with reference, I want to bring into your notice, my septuagenarian parent wanted to avail your premier service on 24th June 2021 from New Delhi to Mumbai via Flight no AI 865 but unfortunately they could not fly (denied by airlines at airport).The reason given by air lines is not carrying RTPCR report. Followings are my arguments

                          1. First of all, I want to clear you, while booking of the ticket, nowhere it was mentioned or notified that RTPCR report is mandatory for travel to said destination.

                          2. Even while doing web check-in, it was neither pointed out to carry RTPCR report nor led to denial of web check-in.

                          3. On the 24th of June 2021 my old parents reached airport well before time (allowed by CISF at entrance) but at Air India counter they were denied boarding for not carrying RTPCR test report.

                          4. My old parents were in great trauma and shock for not allowing to board, that too without their any mistake or fault.

                          5. Even airlines did not offer for rescheduling of flight.

                          6. This led to cancellation of tickets (besides having valid ticket )

                          7. Lastly, it took them 2 hrs to come out of the airport from that incident.

                          After happening all this to my parents, still we preferred and booked air India flight after 2 days of this incident to travel to Mumbai.

                          With utter confidence and humble request to you to reimburse the amount of ticket booked considering all the said events happened with old parents especially in this pandemic situation.

                          With warm Regards

                          Neha Modi

                              after assurance over call and bank has called me for transaction.. I sent them mail to please confirm .. please revert transaction of 1023 euro within their system.

                                Address: AI Office, Calicut International Airport,

                                I am hereby to inform you that, AI Calicut airport staffs & Officer did not allow me to travel from calicut to Dubai.
                                I Already have the required valid documents and approval from UAE Govt. I presented it at the time of check-in but the officials did not allow me to travel because of the reason they mentioned that I have invalid GDRF approval.
                                I hereby attaching the GDRF Approval which I have got on 4th August and still valid. Because of this existence of the approval I could not apply for another. Its showing status of the process is already exist.

                                Because of these reasons I could not travel to Dubai. AI Staffs misbehave me at that time.
                                Travelling Expense from Kannur to Calicut, RTPCR test charges, Rapid test charges at Calicut, Return Expenses from Calicut, all were beared by me. I lost my money. May be it will effect my job also.

                                I requesting you to get compensation & take necessary action against the officials who misbehave at the time of my that situation. Very poor customer service I faced there.

                                NB: Please find the all supporting documents for taking the necessary actions.

                                  Was submitting my luggage at the luggage counter. Many of the staff were pulling their mask down while talking. So many passengers in the queue did not maintain social distance and were talking pulling their masks down. People sticking to each other in queues.
                                  Is there any staff keeping a check on these things?

                                    Thanks
                                    Manish Gurnani
