“Katastrofa, absolutně nezvládnutý managing, ve špičce jezdí s bídou 2 vlaky za hodinu. To se pak nedivte, že jsou kolony na dálnici. Řidiči kamionů nestíhají v čase určeném pro práci přejet z jedné strany kanálu na druhou. Totální propad. Bohužel je to o tom, že jsou pouze dvě možnosti dopravy a jedna je horší než druhá. S tím pak také souvisí sankce za pozdní dodání nákladu apod. HNUS!!!”

We are sorry to hear that you have had a bad experience with us. Unfortunately, as a freight ferry and tunnel ticket agent, we cannot control how many trains there are per hour as this is outside of our control. We can only help you book your freight ferry & tunnel tickets.

“There are so many problems with bookings. I must wait for a very long time (sometimes 1-2 days!!!!!!) for a single booking. Many times I asked for Frejus tunnel and they sent me a booking for Mont Blanc. I definitely don't recommend it.”

Hi Herbert. We are sorry to hear that you have had a bad experience with us. Unfortunately, our agent made an incorrect booking and we had to request it again. Additionally, a booking may take longer than usual when it is made in the evening, due to the operator booking office's opening hours.

Hi Rob. We are sorry to hear that you have not had a good experience with us. Unfortunately, as was explained to you when you emailed us, in order to assist you we needed your booking reference number and your dog's passport in PDF format (this is out of our control as the operator would refuse the passport in any other format).

Unfortunately, the ferry sailing was full and we are not notified of this by the operator until after the booking has been placed. This is beyond our control. A refund has been processed. Depending on your bank, this can take up to 5 working days. Sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused.

“Very dissatisfied with your company. I booked 1 month in advance for a ferry to move a family back to Ireland. 3days before my status was not confirmed. I called and you said you would sort it…..nothing! Rang the following day still no help! On the third attempt we were told our status hadn’t changed even though we were on our way to Cherbourg to get a ferry which we thought had been booked by you a month in advance and paid 1500 euros for in full. Finally after ringing again and speaking to the same man who said he would call us back but he didn’t I had to ring him. He got us on a ferry the following day which caused stress to the family and expenses of an extra night in a hotel. We were told by one of your agents that this is normal for freight. This is definitely not the case I have been booking ferry crossings for 15 years and this has never happened. My return journey is also a day late which is another night in a hotel…..as my lorry isn’t a sleeper which has occurred another expense in my job which was not accounted for. Then to be told that as my booking is going into April there is a fuel supplement of 56 pounds which I have to pay. The agent told me it was because I booked a month in advance….. But when I asked if he could get us on the ferry to Dublin he said no way as you need to book a month in advance …..need to make your mind up! Eventually it was sorted but what a lot of stress for me a the driver and the family who employed me to move them back to Ireland. We are a small removal company who pride ourselves on an efficient and reliable service responsible for peoples worldly goods. We cannot be expected to be put on a status of waiting around at a port to see when we can cross. This particular family have 3 children and due to the delay will be without beds for a night due to what I think is a very big mistake on your behalf. You took my money but you never made my booking as requested. Due to this I will not be using your company again I will book direct myself. But the most disappointing thing of all is not once did anyone apologise! Philip Evans Transition Removals”

We are sorry to hear you are unhappy with the service you received. Unfortunately due to the current ferry situation, space was unavailable with the ferry operator and on the sailing you requested. This was beyond our control. We did however book you onto a sailing the day after. Due to the current worldwide issues with fuel prices, an increase in fuel surcharge had to be applied to your booking. Again, this is beyond our control. This requirement was communicated at the time of booking. Sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused.

We're sorry to hear that your booking was unavailable. Unfortunately one of the ships on the route you booked is currently in dry dock for maintenance, which has affected the sailing schedule. Our website did not reflect this. Sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused.

We are sorry to hear you are unhappy with your booking. It appears you did not send us the dangerous goods note for your hazardous goods and therefore we could not check whether your goods would be accepted or not. Your load was then refused by Eurotunnel Freight. As per your request, we transferred your booking to DFDS, who approved your load. This was the cause of the delay. We must receive your dangerous goods note at the time of booking.

We are sorry to hear you are unhappy with the service you received. Although the ship was delayed, one of our team did notify you to still honour the original check-in time (26/11, 2045). Unfortunately, your travel was refused by the operator however because you had three cats, which had not been declared.

“I do apologize you do not want feedback for this Job ! Everything went wrong from the beginning on. Patrick refused my business he could not find an account. David was not able to send a form to receive payment. Your accounts department was closed or on lunch in the afternoon. I have been waiting for hours to receive a callback. None received! this morning i called in again, spoke to Alexandra, she said please create a booking through cx witch I did. finally, she swapped the completed booking around - and i got booked.... now in sterling not in euros - but that's no problem. The best one is that i been asked to send you a rating in the name of Mr Kohler.... Whow !!! I don't know him.... Very iffy and very strange way to book a ferry.... Regards Joshua Xpress24Ltd (MD)”

Unfortunately we were only notified by the ferry operator about the unavailability after the booking was placed and it was a very busy weekend so no alternative sailings were available. As your booking was placed on a Saturday our accounts department wasn't available, therefore the refund will be processed today (Monday). Sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused.
