This is with reference to the hotel booking id no.HTL [protected] of Estrela Do Mar Resort-A Beach Property Goa for two person on 22 February 2009. and recieved a mail fromMy booking was cancelled and I was told that the money will be refunded to me. You can see the email trail since 22 Feb 2009. Even after several reminders and communication to you, still I am waiting for refund to be done.

I got a mail from Amandeep.[protected]@makemytrip.com confirming the refund of Rs 9487/-(Nine thousand four hundred and eighty) on 22 February 2009 at 4:40:50PM,Then again got a mail from [protected]@makemytrip.com on 05 April 2009 at 9:28AM, after waiting for too long I AGAIN MAILED TO [protected]@makemytrip.com on 18 April 2009 at 12:28PM and again got a refund confirmation mail from [protected]@makemytrip.com on 29 april 2009 at 05:08PM but have not recieved any refund. AGAIN I MAILED TO Amandeep.[protected]@makemytrip.com on 11 october 2009 at 01:52AM. BUT...................EVERYTHING IN VAIN THE IMPRESSION I GOT FROM YOUR SIDE IS THAT YOU PEOPLE ARE NOT BOTHERED TO KEEP YOUR COMMITMENTS AND REFUND MY HARD EARNED MONEY,SO THIS IS FOR THE LAST TIME I AM WRITING TO YOU.I WANT MY 9487/- RUPEES WITH INTEREST AND THE INTEREST PART THAT HAS BEEN LEVIED ON MY CITI BANK CREDIT CARD ON THIS AMOUNT.DO RESPOND TO ME WITHIN 3 DAYS OR I'LL SERVE YOU WITH LEGAL NOTICE AND WILL ALSO PUT UP THIS CASE IN FRONT OF THE MEDIA. After this I have stopped booking any ticket through makemytrip.com because I do not have any faith left in your process and procedures. It is very obvious by your dealing and refund process that you people are only bothered about getting money and business, without keeping the relation with custonmers on priority. It is very sad to say that I have lost all beleive in keeping any business relation with makemytrip.

Cancellation Confirmation [Incident:[protected]]

Approximate Refund Amount Rs. 6,465
Approximate Refund Amount (In words)SIX THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED SIXTY FIVE ONLY(INR)

Though Cancellation done on Feb 19 2010, I have not received any refund till date. Also I called customer care at least 10 + time however they are not able to give any concrete answer. They always gives different reasons and they have permanent reason that they have escalated to concern department and things would be done in 72 hours. That 72 H has not come in last 2 months.
Also the web site is not giving the correct status about refund and saying that amount would be refunded till 26 March 2010
Let me know what could be further action which can be taken on the same

Booking Id: IN1005B02282

I had made a single room reservation through makemytrip for 2 guests at Hotel Arma Residency, Mumbai for check-in date 08-May-2010 and check-out date 09-May-2010. The amount was Rs.1723/- for the room + Rs.100/- (transaction charges of makemytrip for booking over the phone). The total I should have been charged is Rs.1823/- but I have instead been charged Rs.7292/-...an amount 4 times higher. I need an immediate refund of the same. While making my booking over the phone on 06-May-2010 at 4:30pm, Rajneet (ext.2755) confessed that she had incorrectly charged the card twice but my bank statement clearly states that she has mistakenly/fraudulently charged the card 4 times. I expect an immediate response from you and the refund reversed back to my credit card without any further delays as it has already been 7 days since my booking was made.

voucher no - MMTST1009xxxxxxxx

I got coupons from MakeMyTrip Shiftthoughts on hoilday booking and domestic/international travel. They charged me around Rs. 7000/- for this.
Not more than one coupon can be used for one transaction which was not told to me at the time when they offered me this package of vouchers.
The holiday coupons are 2 in number worth Rs 3500/- each.
And 2 nights 3 days stay in a hotel for a holiday costs around Rs. 3500/- per person.
This means that if I am booking a hotel room for holiday for two, I cannot use both the coupons. Like this there are some glitches in other coupons which are offered.
I have found other cases too like this who are victims of this fraudulent campaign by MakeMyTrip.

I would like to move them into Consumer Court. Also request other victims to join hands and fight against them. Please mail me at [protected]@gmail.com for the same. Even I am reachable at my mobile @ [protected]

Sir,
I had booked two air tickets ( Guwahati to Bangalore) on 12th march 00. Due to heavy rush in the bank i could not update my passbook immediately. When i updated my passbook i have learned that money is extracted twice ( sum of 658). I complained to the customer service of make my trip, but they say they have received only once.
Therefore, kindly notify me how the money is gone and reimburse that amount to my account.

Dear Sir,

I booked tickets for two from SRINAGAR to MUMBAI on 13 th Sep 09 through online portal of makemytip. On 13 th Sep 09, morning i got call from JETLITE srinagar counter that
FLIGHT S2-672 had got cancelled because of some or other reason. I was offered refund or a open ticket. I opted for open tkt. But few days back when i contacted jetlite for booking with reference to open ticket, They said they have already refunded full amount to booking agent(i.e MAKE MY TRIP) . When i contacted MAKEMYTRIP, their executive said that they have received only Rs.207/-per person whereas the total amount is Rs. 5844/-.From then i'm continously mailing & calling MAKEMYTRIP but not getting proper reply. All above they are asking me to get scan documents from jetlite where full refund to MAKEMYTRIP is shown.
I am pissed off between AIRLINES & MAKEMYTRIP. Also wasted lot of time in calling & explaining both.

You are requested to intervene & help me to get full refund which i deserve.

Awaiting for your earliest favorable reply & action.

Hi,
I had booked six tickets on makemytrip.com for domestic travel of my parents-in-law and brother-in-law within India. Unfortunately, due to the unexpected demise of my father-in-law a month before, I had to cancel 4 of these tickets. The concerned airlines, Kingfisher and Indigo Air were extremely accommodating. Both canceled their tickets and even issued full refund on my father-in-law's tickets (i.e. they refunded the ticket price and the cancellation charges).

I was informed by makemytrip customer service that as a goodwill gesture they will also issue a full refund as soon as I have furnished the death certificate, which I did within a week. Then, between Jan 29th and Feb 4th I received several emails confirming that all refunds have been initiated and entire amount should reflect in my bank account within 7 business days. But, despite almost 5 weeks delay, I received refund for only 1 ticket. I tried to contact makemytrip customer service more than 10 times and every time I was told that someone will call me back to resolve the issue, but in vain.

Finally, I had to contact Better Business Bureau, a US-based business monitoring non-profit organization, which has good clout over such unethical practices. I have used them sucessfully in the past but this time even they failed to secure a satisfactory result. Please see their frustated response below:

After reaching manali i recieved a sms from the tour operator asking me to call them as it was urgent.On calling them i learned that my hotel booking for Dharamshala was not confirmed by them and reason given was IPL matches in Dharamshala.I asked Make my trip to terminate the trip at manali and refund my balance money or else book me alternately for a tour of agra and jaipur.But both these request were turned down and i was asked to extened 1 night stay in manali and then proceedto kasauli,chandigarh and then delhi.
amended itinerary was as follows

I had no option but to agree to them as i had already paid the complete amount to them.But my nightmare did not end there,on reaching Kasauli i was shocked to learn that the hotel booked for me was in a place called Barog which was 20 KM away from Kasauli.On contacting make my trip i was told that the hotel is in Kasauli.I explained to them that i had already been to kasauli and i was told that that particular hotel was in Barog by the Hotel Management at Barog.On trying to contact make my trip again my call were unanswered and had to unwillingly check in at that hotel.I was not even informed about the local sightseeing that would be shown to me by the tour operator.
I sent a mail to the person who had booked me for this trip ,Poonam Chamoli about her unprofessional behavior and all the hardships i had to face due to them but all my complaints fell on deaf ears.

On reaching Chandigarh i learnt that the hotel where i was supposed to be put up was not booked for me and i was shifted to a third grade hotel where the a/c was not functioning and the room was very filthy.On complaining again and blasting make my trip personnel they told me to wait for 10 mins and they would book in another hotel which was ridiculous as i had already checked in that hotel 2 hours back.

I was told that i would be compensated for all the hardships and inconvenience and that i would receive a call in that regard the next day evening after i reach Delhi but i haven't received any calls from.

Please help and and advice as to what course of action do i take.
thanks

Travel Date - Sun, 09 May 10, 11:20 hrs
Hitendra H Vala Rs. 4,979 x 2 = Rs.9958
Total Cancellation Amount - Rs. 2000
_________________________________
Rs. 7958

But I am getting only Refund Amount Rs. 5,559

So I am at a loss of Rs. 2399. If I would have directly booked the ticket with Airline, also I would have saved Rs. 500 for MakeMyTrip commission.

I have talked to MakeMyTrip Customer care Toll free telephone number but they are so clever that they knew the problem but nothing is done so far.

Pl. help me to get justification. After paying for service to MakeMyTrip they overburden and don't do anuthing

This is the second incident with make my trip. I booked a ticket for my family from Pune to Nagpur on the 08//04/10. Booking ID: FLT[protected] Amount was deducted without any confirmed ticket. When I called them they informed that the amount has npt been received by them and hence they have not issued a ticket. They wrote to me that they would require a bank statement to confirm that the amount has been taken off my account. I sent them...

We visited the site of Make My Trip as we wanted to book our Holiday Tour . We selected ULTIMATE UTTARAKHAND Tour Package for 17.04.2010 to 27.04.2010 After filling their form on the Internet ,the response came through Telephone by a person name Manoj from Delhi. He insisted for payment so Rs. 35000 were paid on 25.02.2010 by Credit Card ( Total Package for Rs. 46999).In the last week of March we contanted Mr.Manoj to change our Tour Programme from 17.04.2010 to 27.04.10 instead new dates from 27.05.2010 to 05.06.2010.He says that Rs.5000 will be charged for cancellation.We were agree for that.Thenafter there was no response from Make My Trip.Neither they ask for remaining payment nor they have send any physical receipt or Air Tickets. Now on inquiring in Mumbai they said that their Delhi Office is different.They also says that booking once made can not be cancell. With such a dealing and unreliable service we have no faith in the system.Now please guide us how we can get our refund and avoid harracement.

The ID of ticket is RAL[protected].Then after I cancelled my ticket and the refund amount was showing 374 Rs. but only I got 334 Rs. When I talked to customer care executive ,he was saying that it was approximate refund amount. Bt in my previous ticket approximate refund amont was 294 and total 294 rs paid to me.

I had booked three kingfisher flight tickets on 11.03.2010 for 25.03.2010 through makemytrip.com from bagdogra to new delhi. total amount for the tickets was rs. 9159.00 which i paid through credit card.

My flight booking id is flt[protected]. i cancelled my tickets at the kingfisher airlines counter at bagdogra airport on 25.03.2010 at 3 pm. (pnr jfwkad) since i was not permitted to cancel online. the cancellation coupon no from kingfisher counter is[protected],[protected],[protected]. i was told that my refund would be credited through makemytrip.com.

After that i submitted the cancellation details in makemytrip.com website vide feedback reference no. :[protected]. i even mailed the details at makemytrip.com with scanned copies of cancellation receipts. i received a mail from makemytirp.com which they said it will take around 7 days to process the request. but even after more than 15 days i have not received any response from them. i have sent them several reminders over mail but to no effect.

Make my Trip ruined my holiday plans at the last moment> Wanted to go to Jim Corbett for a nice holiday with my family, booked my hotel Jim’s Jungle Retreat, Corbett from 2nd to 4th April 2010. Received a confirmation mail from Make My Trip that the room has been booked and the same was followed by a Hotel booking Voucher from MMT, which so ironically said "Kindly note, your booking is CONFIRMED and you are not required to contact the hotel or MMT to reconfirm the same". Then to my horror, received a call from Make My Trip in the evening that the booking was not made and it was some stupid error on their part and thankfully they will refund the complete amount and it will be reflected in my credit card statement in the next 7 days.

Now here are a few things :-

1) As it was peak season I was not able find any other hotel of my taste in Corbbet, as a result my holiday plans went for a toss.

2) The whole weekend was cursed by my family as they were so excited to go on this holiday.

Will never trust Make My Trip again and will prefer to book holidays either directly with the hotel or through a more trusted travel agent .

Dear Sir,
1. On 31.3.2010, I booked two air tickets on line using the website "Make My Trip" for the journey between Port Blair & New Delhi against booking id FLT[protected] costing Rs. 19,838/- using SBI ATM cum Debit Card.

2. It was noticed on the same day that my account was debited twice on 31.3.2010 for the same journey.
3. I immediately contacted the Call Centre and as per their advice, sent the PDF scan copy of SBI ATM account statement on 31.3.2010 itself.
4. Again I sent the scanned PDF copy of my SBI Saving Account statement on 3.4.2010 and followed it up through e-mail ([protected]@makemytrip) on dated 5th and 6th April 2010. In addition I telephoned the Call Centre three times during this period to know the status of my grievance. Each time, a new agent attended the call and promised to look into the complaint with no result so far.
5. Sir, I am a senior Class-I officer in the Centrtal Govt. and working on depuation with BSNL Corporate Office and I live on limited salary. The amount of Rs. 19,838/- being debited twice from my account is causing lot of financial hardship and mental torture to me with no hope of redressal from Make my Trip end.
Sir, I request your esteem organization to take my case with M/s. make my trip as they are not addressing my genuine complaint inspite of my repeated requests. I shall always be grateful to you for the help.

I booked ticket through makemytrip. com on 05th March 2010 from Mumbai Central to Indore. My makemytrip booking ID was RAL [protected].The mode of payment was E-payment through ICICI Bank Ltd. Due to some technical problem the transaction got failed and the ticket was not booked, but the amount Rs:2369/- was debited from my account. I lodged complaint with makemytrip but till date my amount has not been credited to my account.

Hi,

I made a payment of Rs.7719 on 20th November, 2009 for the MMT festival offer ( where it had MMT's yearly membership+ Domestic flight and hotel dicount vouchers+ International hotel and flight discount offer + Free watch).

It has been more than 4 months and I have still not received this kit. I have made numerous calls to your call center and have also written couple of mails to the customer support cell but all has gone in vain.

I am very irritated with the irresponsible behaviour of MMT. I have incurred interest on my credit card also because of this and have not received any product.

I would like this to be addressed ASAP. Let me know if there is any travel ombudsman where i can write and ask them to take action against this.

Regards,
Abhishek Gaurav
