Through their website i booked ticket to delhi - melbourne and melbourne - delhi.
While booking the website was showing availability of ticket and seat for legs delhi - singapore, singapore - melbourne and again melbourne - singapore, singapore delhi.
I booked my ticket and transferred money thru my credit card. The sum was approx.1.57 lac.
The web site issued the e-ticket also immediately and i got up and down journey ticket. I was quite happy that i have got a good bargain.
But this joy was to short lived.
After few hours i got a call that ticket cannot be confirmed as the singapore melbourne sector availability of seat is not there for that day, as per the mail i received from yatra office, saying that money will be transferred in 4 to 7 working days!!!
I asked for my refund immediately to my credit card, to which they said that now it will take four to seven working days to refund.
So the drama has started and they had taken me for ride. They grabbed my 1.57 lac and for refund i have to wait for at least ten days.
I booked twice and not once.
I another time booking done for different date (Booking reference number[protected] however it also met the same fate, however after lot of complain you came back saying that it it is cancelled automatically.
My first booking was with reference no: booking ref#[protected].
My concerns is that this is a case of fraud and amounts to cheating,
If tickets were not available then why the money was transacted to their account, once money was with yatra.com then they are saying 4 to 7 working days for return, means i am forced buy ticket thru you on higher price, which eventually i did.
Prior booking first time i had blocked the ticket as per the web site, and got two time reminder mail to pay as soon as possible as seats are filling fast.
But as soon as money was paid you started saying that booking cannot be confirmed.
Then my question is that why your website displaying such tickets which you cannot book.
It amounts to fraud as first take money by showing the promising ticket availability and once money is transacted then say it cannot be done and keep the money for months. Hence the customer has no option but to buy the ticket from you only.
My 3 travel tickets was cancelled on 22nd june 2016 as due to certain circumstances i had to drop my plan to travel.
However,
After lot of calling and waiting on line for 20 to 30 minutes every time, numerous emails, the money has been finally returned to my account on 20th july 2016.
This is a big fraud being done by yatra.com. They never reply any emails.
I had to record each of their conversation for records or else they will flatly deny that anything was said. The trust was badly shaken.
