“Cannot give 0 stars , and of course your sorry ...really , I have been waiting 7 months for my refund and am getting no where , Teletext holidays needs to be shut down , and if that flaming Richard replies by saying he's sorry and that they are looking into it , its complete rubbish , they hang up when your on the phone or make you wait to speak to another useless operator and now ignore emails , nothing but a bunch of criminals masquerading as a family holiday company , anyone reading this needs to be aware of how much they actually disrespect any of their customers”

“Worst company I've heard of. I am outraged by the way customers are treated. Our vacation was canceled and this company left us without any information or assistance. They have not responded to emails for 3 months. They robbed us. I got a refund for my flights on a voucher with my name on it and they charged back my flights without even informing me of it. Give back my money!!!”

“Absolutely shocking company, breaking the law and acting illegally refusing to give customers refunds from holiday’s cancelled due to the pandemic. Refunds by law should be issued within 14 days for package holiday cancellations. The government or watchdog need to get involved and close this company. Booking reference TT801042.”

“Avoid at all costs. They took so long to get a refund which I still haven't got since June, Such poor customer service. Now they keep ringing saying I will get a special deal only for me. I ended up going up to my card company to dispute who have taken it forward. They just keep your money and try and sign you up with another money can't buy holiday special deal the arse (sorry but they are a bunch of cowbows) they had the money back from easy jet and sent no confirmation about that or when I could see my money back for that. I have ended up making a complaint to the competition marketing authority. You look at their website and they are all so positive and 5 star reviews I think they must be fake reviews. It is a shame you can't opt for half a star or no star. What I find strange is it comes up as Justin Travel and not teletext holidays. I left a review once and said give your reference number to customer service but they are so useless. I eventually spoke to a manager who said people get paid per day in the Indian call centre when I told him about my frustration after 8 weeks of waiting to speak to a manager. I have a heart problem and this has made my heart condition worse with all the stress. PLEASE AVOID FOR YOUR OWN PHYSICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH.”

“Teletext are dreadful, they have handled the whole Covid-19 situation so badly, all you get is lies, being pushed from pillar to post, and just when you think you’re getting somewhere, you’re back to square one! I have been a customer for decades, but I will never book a holiday through this company again! They give you the impression that they are crooks, doing everything they can to avoid refunding your money, giving you every excuse under the sun! I get problems can happen, but it’s how you put it right that counts, and 7 months on, they still haven’t!!!”

“DO NOT USE TEKETEXT HOLIDAYS!! I am totally disgusted by this company. They are liars and fraudsters! My holiday was cancelled in March due to COVID and I am still chasing refund! There’s is no Live Chat- total SCAM. They keep telling me to wait 3 weeks, it’s been 8 months! They told me I should take up my flight refunds with Ryanair, yet Ryanair have confirmed my money is sitting with Teletext holidays. I am still waiting for flights and hotel to be refunded. PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! WE NEED TO TAKE THEM DOWN!! Liars. Literally illegally holding on to peoples money to fund their cash flow. UNACCEPTABLE and DISGUSTING TT768334”

“I have booked a holiday in the beginning of July 2020, the holiday was cancelled due to COVID and following countless phone calls, emails, promised refund to my account, it is now November and Teletext has STILL NOT GIVEN ME MY MONEY BACK. This is fraud. And someone from higher management should take control and help people like me which have to deal with problems that customers should not have to go through! I have been ignored for my refund of £3500. This is completely unacceptable. DO NOT BOOK WITH TELETEXT!!!! THERE IS NO LIVE CHAT. IT IS A SCAM.”

“I advise anyone against using this company. They clearly do not value their customers! Such a poorly managed company and customer their service is a disgrace. I had a holiday booked with teletext holidays for a trip to Spain on the 14th of June which of course was cancelled due to Covid 19. I was initially under the impression that as a customer that has brought something that had not been received that surely I would be refunded promptly, besides consumer rights and all that.. Well consumer rights doesn't seem to apply to teletext holidays for some unknown reason? Regardless of that I was very understanding given the circumstances and feel I have been very patient considering its almost 5 months following the date I was supposed to travel and have still not received a refund.. This entire process has been nothing but stress especially upto recent as it just seems as though they have no intentions to give me MY money back. From the start to now I have received no guidance or advice that has been of any benefit, teletext has completely dismissed my questions, I have received minimal correspondence, I have been given false information and have been lied to on multiple occasions and they have even taken money from my account following me telling them via live chat and email not to as the airlineprovider had already confirmed that the flights were cancelled, so there was absolutely no reason for any further payments to be taken from my account. It is over a month since receiving any correspondence from teletext holidays, which their last email was advising me to contact them again in 4 weeks time so they could further assist me.. I have done exactly that yet still no correspondence? Teletext always seem to pass the book that they are waiting for their suppliers? Well I and many other customers did not book through your suppliers, we booked directly through teletext holidays so it is your responsibility to resolves these issues not your suppliers. Teletext do not want to refund people what is rightfully theirs because of the financial impact it would have on their company hence the ridiculous delays. It does not matter to them that in such difficult times many people have found themselves in financial crisis and actually need this money, so long as their company isn't affected right? Well it is NOT the customers responsibility to finance teletext holidays to ensure that they aren't financially affected! I am most disappointed in teletext holidays as I truly thought it to be a trusted holiday provider with such long standing, I can now see how wrong I actually was. I will persevere until I get MY money finally returned to my account even if that means that I have to take the legal route to do so! I advise everyone to keep an evidence log of all correspondence as I have just incase the legal response is your last option. There is much more I could add but I think this should give others sufficient awareness not to gamble their hard earned money with such a poorly managed company.”

“Ref no TT783923. Do not even consider to use Teletext for a holiday , Booked holiday in February, Ryanair changed flight details and issued a refund which went back to the card it was paid on (Teletext master card) have rung teletext numerous times which can take anything up to two hours to get through only to be told they haven’t received it off Ryanair , which I know is not true ,sending emails every week which they do not reply too ,This is my money and as far as I am concerned this is Tantamount to theft so I am now resorting to take legal action as I don’t see why this company should get away with this , If anyone else is thinking about using Teletext holidays my advice is DONT, Worst company I have ever had to deal with and customer service is non existent!! No Stars.”

“I have always booked with TT but not anymore. Trying to get my refund for my holiday is a nightmare they have been so rude and keep putting the phone down after I waited an hour to answer. Emailed numerous times to no avail. Unfortunately I have had to do a charge back through my bank. I am so disappointed with this company is an understatement. There are thousands of us in this situation the media have been in touch think the ball will get rolling now because so many have complained. BEWARE IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A HOLIDAY WITH THESE DO IT AT YOUR OWN PERIL Please TT don't answer by saying get in touch because you never do!!!”
