When spoken with their customer care they say they cannot do not anything, it is a regular problem and should re-try the booking.

I have done the flight ticket booking online through GoIbibo portal for travel CHN To DEL, booking ID GOFLDSTACAZU8684014 and received confirmed ticket in Spicejet airline with PNR: HHIDFK.

Later received an email from GoIbibo that "your booking is cancelled as per the information received from the airline. Cancelled: Chennai-Delhi: K Shaun
We have therefore initiated a refund of ₹ 5, 590".

However the refund settlement is pending and not credited to my respective bank account.

I have tried to make a bus booking on 17th Feb 2025 from bangalore to Kannur on Ashoka Travels.
After the amount got deducted from gpay, the page was frozen and no booking was made.
I have tried once more and the same issue happened.
It happened on 17th Feb 1:22 pm and 1:56pm. I tried to contact the helpdesk and later understood that they dont have any customer care where we can reach.
I wanted to get refund of my amount 1787.9.
Please help.

I had booked a hotel through Goibibo at elite inn, Nashik Hotel on 8th February under their 100% Money Back Guarantee policy, which promises a full refund if the room has cleanliness issues such as pests, foul smell, broken walls, or unhygienic conditions.

Upon checking in, I found that the room was in an unhygienic and unlivable condition, violating basic standards of cleanliness. The specific issues I faced were:

1. Unhygienic and Unclean Room: The room was dusty and extremely dirty, making it unfit for stay.
2. Infested Bed & Fungus on Cushions: There were insects in the blanket, and the cushions on the bed and chairs had visible fungus, creating a serious health hazard.
3. Terrible Odor: The room and bathroom had a persistent, unbearable stench, making the stay extremely uncomfortable.
4. Dirty and Damaged Walls: The walls were stained, dirty, and poorly maintained, violating basic hygiene standards.
5. Non-Functional Amenities: The basin tap was broken, and the TV was not working, which meant I was denied the facilities that I had paid for.

Since these issues fall directly under Goibibo’s 100% Money Back Guarantee, I immediately reported the matter to Goibibo’s customer support and submitted photographic evidence twice.

Despite my legitimate complaint, Goibibo’s customer support:

• Did not address my issue seriously and kept giving generic, scripted responses.
• Delayed the resolution, forcing me to repeatedly follow up.
• Customer executives were extremely rude and unprofessional, making no effort to assist.
• Blamed the hotel instead of taking responsibility, saying, “The hotel denied your refund, so we can’t help you.”
• Closed my complaint without any resolution, despite clear proof of the room’s unhygienic condition.
• Offered me a ₹300 voucher instead of my rightful full refund, which is completely unacceptable.

Goibibo is falsely advertising its Money Back Guarantee while refusing to honor it, which is clear fraud and misrepresentation under consumer protection laws.

1. Breach of Contract & False Advertising:
• Goibibo’s 100% Money Back Guarantee is misleading, as they refuse refunds even when customers meet all eligibility criteria.
2. Deficiency in Service:
• I paid for a clean and habitable stay, but Goibibo failed to ensure this, violating my consumer rights.
3. Unfair Trade Practices:
• Instead of honoring the refund policy, they offered an insulting ₹300 voucher, which is deceptive and misleading.
4. Mental Harassment & Negligence:
• The rude behavior of Goibibo’s customer support executives caused unnecessary stress and inconvenience.

In light of the above violations, I request the Consumer Forum/National Consumer Helpline to take strict action against Goibibo for false advertising, unfair trade practices, and deficiency in service.

I Demand the Following Compensation:

1. Full refund of ₹1591 as per Goibibo’s Money Back Guarantee.
2. Additional compensation for mental harassment and time wasted due to Goibibo’s negligence.
3. Action against Goibibo for misleading customers with false refund policies and unfair trade practices.
4. A public clarification from Goibibo to ensure future customers are not misled by their deceptive refund policy.

Dear GoIbibo Support Team,

I am writing to express my continued frustration regarding the unresolved issue of my flight tickets purchased in January and February 2020. As mentioned in my previous emails, I booked two tickets through your platform for travel during June and September 2020:

Riga to Chennai in June 2020
Chennai to Riga in September 2020
Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 outbreak, I was unable to travel on these flights. Since then, I have been persistently attempting to resolve this matter, but to no avail. My repeated requests for a refund have been largely ignored or met with unsatisfactory responses. I am now in a financial crisis and need to repay my aunt, whose credit card was used for these bookings.

I have explicitly informed your team multiple times that I am currently living in Finland for my higher studies, and that I was available in India only until August 2024. Despite this, your team has continued to call my Indian mobile number, which is no longer valid, and have used this as an excuse for not being able to reach me. This is unacceptable and demonstrates a complete lack of attention to the details I have provided.

To clarify, I have repeatedly requested that all communications be directed to my aunt, Mrs. Julie Mercy Jayapal, who is available on her Indian mobile number: +91 [protected]. I do not understand why this instruction is being ignored.

In my most recent communication with your team, I was informed that the airlines had refunded the ticket amounts to GoIbibo. However, despite this confirmation from the airline, I have yet to receive any resolution from your end. The email I received last evening stated that the airlines did not return the money, which contradicts the information I received from the airlines themselves.

I would like to remind you of the following:

My aunt was in contact with Ms. Sruthi from your team on October 10th, 2024, who assured her that the matter would be escalated and taken seriously.
Despite this assurance, I have received no meaningful follow-up or resolution.
I have communicated repeatedly about my unavailability in India, yet your team has continued to contact me on my outdated Indian number, causing further delays.
This delay of over 4 years is both frustrating and unacceptable. I am requesting that you take immediate action to process my refund, which I am entitled to, as per the information received from the airlines.

Please treat this as my final request. If I do not receive a satisfactory response or resolution within the next 7 days, I will be forced to pursue legal action to claim the refund.

Attached are the relevant flight tickets for your reference.

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.

Sincerely,
Shelcia Carolyn Samuvel
