Liars, thieves, scumbags. Had my week in Gran Canaria cancelled due to Covid 19 back in April, I've been promised my refund numerous times but still no joy. Every time I contact them they move the goalposts. I wish I was able to just forget about £1200 but I'm not that lucky. I have kids that need clothing and feeding but a multi-million pound corporation think it's OK to keep my hard earned money. I'd let the McCann's babysit my kids before I booked through these jokers again. Avoid at all costs.

I have contacted Teletext holidays on numerous occasions regarding my booking for September., Ryanair have changed my flights to a different date twice now and are offering a full refund, I spoke to Zara at Teletext she said as flights have been changed I can have a full refund on the hotel which I will receive 90 days from departure date. Seemed straight forward, I called back to action this and looking for email confirmation. I have since spoke to 2 very rude men who, one of them who actually cut me off. I was advised days ago I would receive an email and a telephone call within 48 hours, I have received neither. I also called back today held for 1 hour as phone was answered they cut me off!!! I have also sent emails - no response. I need this resolved ASAP. please respond, I need to know a refund will be actioned and I need confirmation of this.

Do not use teletext holidays, they lied when I booked told me luggage included and it wasnt, hurried and pressured selling, now 5 months on from holiday cancellation and no refund, I dont even have a credit voucher now it expired in July! No communication just lies. People are taking unnecessary holidays because of this its shocking, totally irresponsible and they really couldn't care, no customer service, I really don't know what to do they owe me £1700 and just keep lying, my bank can't help as teletext keep saying they will refund but they haven't.

Absolutely disgusting Company. They hang up on you. They lie & fob you off. They talk over you & interrupt. They are absolutely useless. They don't want to help with queries or questions. I hope to god I see the day where they are the result of their own downfall. They don't deserve to be trading. Treating their Customers the way they do is disgusting. But they don't care. They have our money. We were due to fly on Thursday but they cancelled our Apartment & didn't even tell us!!! Now we have to phone Ryanair to try & get credit voucher. Absolute joke. Teletext Holidays you should be ashamed of yourselves. Past week I've made several calls asking them to email me documents reflecting change of date of travel. Now I know why they never bothered!!! Disgusting lowlifes is putting it mildly.

I booked a holiday with teletext to kefalonia 30th sept to 10th oct 2020 the airline cancelled the return flight so I was able to book a different date phoned teletext 20 times got everyone's names i just wanted a refund for the accommodation and transfers I just keep getting fobbed off, just spoke to them again to ask for an email stating they cancelled it because I have had nothing from them, I only found out the flight was cancelled by checking on easy jet, teletext didn't even tell me. Now they are saying it takes 90 days for a refund absolutely ridiculous. I'm not giving up!! They keep making excuses about the suppliers. My reference is TT778774 PLEASE SORT IT. If I hear nothing soon I will post everyone's name i have spoken to. I have always booked with teletext with no problems so TELETEXT PLEASE REFUND ME ASAP NOT 90 DAYS

TT782222 Do not use teletext holidays under any circumstances! I had a holiday booked for early June 20 which obviously got cancelled due to the virus. I expected delays on my refund given the impact of the virus but this is becoming a joke now. The incompetence of the staff and how inconsistent they are in what they say in the minimal correspondence that you receive.. The lack of guidance, support and clear disregard to consumer rights is very disappointing considering how trusted they were. I have had countless grievances with teletext, one of which being that they took funds out my account following me emailing them not to take any further instalments as the airline provider had confirmed they would not be flying on my dates. This email amongst many other was completely disregarded and they took the payment anyway.. I don't believe this is legal? They just can not be trusted and genuinely have no regard for their customers. I expected so much better. I will never use this company again in my life. Once my refund finally comes through that will me the last time I communicate with these criminals.

We booked our holiday with Teletext holidays and all was great. I was told they would take £350 out of my account on the day of booking and then the rest of our payment on 28th September. To my surprise when I looked at my account the following day £350 had been taken Aswel as a futher £478. I rang Teletext holidays straight away and was told someone would call me back. I am still waiting for this call I've rang every day since andbedn put on hold for up to 2 hours and then cut off. So I sent an email explaining the situation and the fact that they had taken the extra money that shouldn't have been taken took me overdrawn in the bank which has cost me £30 per day. I am still waiting on a reply nearly 2 weeks later. I am really disappointed, annoyed and angry that they have taken money out of my account without my permission, and I have had not communication with them as they will not speak to me or reply to emails. Won't be booking again....... disgusted

Do not use teletext/truly travel Do not use teletext/truly travel. They are corrupt and incompetent. They keep you on hold for up to an hour then hang up when you give them the reference (has happened at least 20 time’s) when you do speak to someone they shout at you and lie to you. I was told (in writing) that my refund would be in my account by last Thursday and it wasn’t. I called and (eventually) spoke to several different people and got told several different stories.. they just tell you rubbish to get you off the phone. I have sent countless emails to a number of emai addresses and have only emailed one standardised email telling me to expect a refund in 90 Days... you are a joke of a company and I shall see you in court along with a lot of other people it seems.

Perhaps the staff mentioned in the random 5 star Reviews can look into this for me seeing as they are so wonderful? Will update again in a few days for anyone reading these reviews!

ZERO STARS. ABSOLUTE CON COMPANY! DO NOT USE! Worst company I have ever had to deal with. Have been trying to amend our holiday as they suggest on their social media posts due to the new foreign office advice: can’t even get through to the ‘amendments team’. Every time I call I just to speak to a rude member of staff from customer service, each of whom spout a different load of rubbish from a call centre somewhere half way across the world. Still waiting for a call back I am sure I will never receive. Advertise themselves as a package holiday but now all of a sudden you have to contact flight company and hotel yourself?

ZERO would be my score is I could. Booking Reference TT780674 - Rang Customer Support, which is not at all what it is, as two different dates I have been given by two different advisers in the past have been missed. Now told that I can apply for a cash refund after 30th September. I know that Ryanair refunded the flight money in July, and the hotel I booked never had payment for my reservation from Teletext. So Teletext have had my money sitting in their account for a very long time. having to wait 4 months to get my money back is not good. All the messages about being very busy is no consolation to people trying to get their money back. It's not beyond the whit of man to take on some extra staff to help cope. By not stressing customers out with the constant battle to get their money back would surely pay dividends with return customer bookings. To make phone calls which keep you on hold for over an hour each time you ring is also not helpful to stress levels. Sorry Holly, I know you must be the busiest person working for Teletext, constantly having to say your sorry to read bad reviews! I await the automated response.

I am disgusted with this company. I have be waiting over 5 months for a refund. Only today I received an automated email stating that I will be issued with a refund for the flight but I have still not had an update about the hotel. I will definitely be taking this further as I have sent numerous amounts of email only to not get responded to. I have currently been on hold for over half hour trying to get the answers to my questions. Someone needs to call me back ASAP before this goes any further.

We have spent the last two weeks trying to amend our holiday destination and managed to finally change it four days ago- it came with a additional cost of £400 We were told we would receive our confirmation documents within 24 hours and still waiting. We have contacted via phone today twice and been on hold for 1hr and 20 mins only to have the phone put down on us. This needs sorting ASAP. I find it appalling paying customers are treated in such a way Alisha Murdock

Holiday for my birthday with 10 friends in April was cancelled due to Covid 19, fair enough this has happened but I have been told lies all along trying to get my refund which I shouldn’t need to beg for! Rebooking is not an option as there have been job losses in my party, This has certainly put me booking with them again... Also sick of the person from teletext calling my mobile and hanging up every hour and even though the night!! All because I want MY YES MY MONEY BACK my ref is TT755509 sort it please Teletext, you have my number!!

Turned up in Cyprus with a disabled child to no taxi which I paid for! I spent 2 hours on the phone being fobbed off and spoken down to by multiple agents. In the end I had to find my own way to the hotel with 2 children! I have tried calling to confirm my taxi going back and I constantly get the phone put down on me. This is just the tip of the iceburg of the complaint I'm putting in, just want to warn others to never book with these con artists! SCAM.
