Dear Sir, My name is Sajidev Thekkedath ( email id: [protected]@gmail.com). I have taken a tiket on 05/11/2013 from Abu dhabi to Kochin. with confirmation number 4VSU2J. unfortunately I had to cancell the ticket because of some personal reason. While cancelling the ticket the travel agent told me that the money will be credited to your account within 21 working days. I have waited another one and half months. nothing happened. went to AIr india express Abu dhabi office on January last week, February first week and each time they informed that within five working days it will be credited. not surprisingly till now it has not credited. could you please register this as a written complaint against Air India express as they are violated their policy. Regards, Sajidev [protected]

My ticket PNR -5UMHMA and i could not travel on December 28th as i reached 3.10 since i reached 10 minutes late they refused me to travel and didnt issue boarding pass. Please note that while coming from dubai to Kochin on 5th Dec 2013 i have to sit allmost 5 hours in the flight on the Run way for that Air India has no value for time when they keep passengers wait in the air craft for 5 hours in the flight. And finaly when i checked about the refund they were saying its all ready credited to my account.. i send several mails regarding this issue to customer care every time they are giving the reply your case diverted to finance department and investigation is going on i send allmost 15 mails regarding this issue and always the same reply.. Today 13th March 2014 and now 75th day after my cancelled ticket and till now they didnt reply properly and not credited the amount to my account...

Dear Sir, I am Mr. ISMAIL KURIENTE PURAKKAL. I purchased the Air India express ticket(Return) using my SBT debit card on 03/10/2013, from Abu Dhabi to Kozhikode and Kozhikode to Abu Dbahi. The travelling date was 18/10/2013 and 03/11/2013. Unfortunately, I couldn't use my return ticket From Kozhikode to Abu Dhabi. The Confirmation Number was DYWAKQ. The Flight Number was IX - 3633. Departure Sun-03/11/2013 19:45 and Arrival Sun - 03/11/2013 22:20. Actually, I cancelled my air Ticket before 24 hours. But I didn't get any Refundable money or any information from your side yet. If you don't mind, please mail me regarding this matter. My mail id [protected]@gmail.com. Hopefully, Mr. Ismail Kuriente Purakkal Abu Dhabi - UAE. [protected]

Dear Sirs,

We at PipeTech Services Pvt. Ltd. had booked 3 tickets for our employees (Mr.Sunil Yadav, Mr.Hansaraj & Mr.Sarvesh Kumar Dubey)Mumbai-Delhi-Dubai (Ticket Copy Attached)

Mumbai(Depart:AI 660-24th Feb 2014-5:00PM) to Delhi(Arrive:AI 660-24th Feb 2014-7:00PM)
Delhi(Depart:AI 995-24th Feb 2014-8:40 PM) to Dubai(Arrive:AI 995-24th Feb 2014-10:40 PM)

Please note the flight from Mumbai took off late & arrived at Delhi an hour after scheduled time of arrival in Delhi i.e at 8:00 PM.The passengers were than not allowed to board the flight to Dubai stating that "OK to Board" was not there while check in and had to miss their flight.On persistence by our employees your staff issued a printed statement of the details which clearly states the "OK to Board" was received @ 15.04 & 15.06 hrs which is much before flight time & same was confirmed vide our agent in Dubai.

Due to this negligence from your end our staff had to wait in Delhi for one whole day.The passengers were not even given a hotel accommodation nor were they issued a ticket for the next flight. We had to pay double the price and book expensive tickets through Emirates. Our employees were travelling to Dubai to carry out service work on Vessel of Shipping Corporation of India which was in Dubai port.Due to the delay of arrival of our employees in Dubai, the vessel had to wait at Dubai resulting in losses to our Company aswell as delay in schedule of VLCC carrier of Shipping Corporation of India.

We want AI to conduct an inquiry into above incident & provide an explanation, we also need a refund for the tickets and compensation for the losses incurred.

Attached are details for your ready reference. Looking forward for your acknowledgement per return & detailed response on PRIORITY.

Regards,
Florida Fernandes

Booking reference-YMU413 & VMZV7J With reference to the above bookings and their subsequent cancellation, I have not received the refund of these ticket cancellations even after 4 months from AI express. The matter has been presented before AI express through emails only to receive a reply that it has been forwarded to the concerned department. The first mail was sent on 5th November 2013 and the last mail was sent on 5th February 2014. I expect the necessary action will be taken. Thank you in advance.

I had cancelled 2 tickets (Confirmation no. HHVWYX on 19/11/13 & RZAE7Z on 21/10/13) through your site. Reminder emails has been sent to air India express office and till now i have not received any response from your side regarding the refund amount. These tickets has been cancelled before 3 months and till today i have not received the refund amount to my account. While contacting your office, they say that the amount will be credited to my account within 2 weeks. Now its almost 3 months and your office staff doesn't give a proper reply and confirmation regarding the refund amount. So kindly do the needful to reimburse the refund amount to my account at the earliest. Appreciate your quick action on this issue.

Dear sir, This has reference to the booking as per subject itinerary. Please note that I cancelled the ticket almost 4 weeks prior to departure date, which is now more than 60 days from today's date. However, till date I have not received my refund to the credit card. Request you to please do the needful and process the refund urgently. I have already followed up over phone and email numerous times. Awaiting your response. Regards Nilesh Dange

I am writing this mail in accordance to the kind of rudeness I got from your staff (Mr. Pramod), I don't know his last name as he rudely told me that he would not tell that. I was supposed to board a flight today itself (Booking Ref no. is Y60DK) from Mumbai - Delhi - Patna. I was not informed about that as I gave my office landline no. This guy was very rude that its my fault that I haven't given my mobile no. and he straightaway told me that they don't communicate on mails. I was there for 3 hrs, waiting patiently, crying for help as my marriage is scheduled for tomorrow. He told me that my ticket is invalid and I cant fly on that. i can fly only till Delhi ( one morning flight was there from delhi to patna) but he refused to entertain me on that. He was also making a joke of the fact that I have taken the flight 2 months back for saving money. I cant tell you the kind kind of mental pressure and humiliation I got through. I have already filed a complaint in consumer court. IS THIS THE KIND OF SERVICE ONE EXPECTS FROM AIR INDIA? leave service, is this the way to talk to a customer of yours. I wanted you people to know that I am flying tomorrow by Indigo flight that I had to book on my own today. Please keep a tab of foolishness and carelessness you are doing.

Dear Sir, With reference to the attached confirmation, I would like to inform you that I could not travel on 11.04.13 from Kozhikode to Dubai due to some personal reasons. So I kindly request you to refund the amount to the same credit card used for booking the ticket. Yours Faithfully.

Dear Manager I have cancelled the return ticket No. 0K99R7 before the date and waiting for the refund to the same same credit card. I have send a number of request to customer service but reply is that (we are awaiting the reply from authority") . So please give the refund without any further delay.

I have booked below 5 tickets thru my credit card and cancelled 4th of January due to change in route and was waiting for refund for the last 17 days. LA6Q9O - CHERIYATH MANOHARAN XIBWHE - CHERIYATH PREMANANDAN 4V0JVJ - CHERIYATH BHASKARAN 2KGCJB - KUNNIRIKKAL HARIDASAN 39QV7N - PUTHALATH USHA It is disappointing to see that no refund has been processed so far and which forced me to write to you with a hope that proper action will taken immediately.

Dear sirs,

I would like convey my opinion about air india express as very poor customer support. 6 months has been passed after the below specified cancellation and I yet to receive the money from Air india express. We were living in the world where we keep accountability for each penny we spend and receive. However, they were constantly tracking the pending when you receive my repeated reminders and yet to find it. Please see the below reminders to air india express. Kindly advice the way forward and government/ legal bodies where I can address this further.

Thanks and Regards,

Sarath

You will need to provide this confirmation number and your passport/photo I.D. and valid visas (where applicable) at check-in to receive your boarding card.

Hi, I have cancelled my return flight ticket and not yet received the payment back from Air India express. I have been following up with Air India support team for last three months, but no response or confirmation for my payment. I really surprise to see the way Air India treats the passengers. They are not able to check and provide the reply properly. It's one of the worst service in India and cheating.

This is to bring to your notice to all travelers out there to think real hard (not twice, but even more than that) before booking a ticket with Air India Express. I've booked an International Ticket & then my plans got just changed for some reason. From then on, I've been trying to postpone the ticket to a different date. I've been trying the website in which there is an option to "Modify" the date, but whenever I try to change it does not come out satisfactory. I then tried calling the customer care & to my surprise I understood that being such an Old/Reputed flight, IT'S NOT 24 Hour SERVICE. If a passenger needs any kind of assistance, he needs to wait once the sun rises & still wait again once the clock strikes 9am. With this kind of service provided how can a passenger be secured till the last moment. There are many number that I've tried but none, not even one did answer to my call. The number listed below as those being provided by the Flight's Website itself. Chennai :[protected] Dubai :[protected],[protected],[protected] Kannur :[protected],[protected] Kochi :[protected] / 2610050 Kozhikode :[protected],[protected],[protected] Mumbai :[protected], 28318097, 28318098 I'll be losing my money here. Depending upon such Fight is never all advised.
