Have been trying to get some answers since holiday cancelled on 4/5/20. Eventually was told I could rebook and would get full refund for the extra money left over , however they rebooked eventually after spending hours on hold at a cost of 158.00 pounds phone bill. Still waiting refund and the new booking reference is not recognised?? Seriously getting fed up with all the phone calls with no answers and will consider legal action as nearly 2000 pounds they have of my money

Disgusting customer service all is well whilst booking the holiday they will pick up quickly. But when it comes to calling customer service you will be told you will get a call back after two days I got fed up and started calling it has now been two weeks with no one picking up no one responding to my emails I have been on the phone line for up to 58 minutes at a time desperate to get through. The online chat server doesn’t work so there is no way of getting through you’ll call sales who put you through. My concern is do they deal at all with customer service as after two weeks of being unable to get hold of someone surely that means no one is working on that end. I understand this may be due to COVID but it needs to be announced I will never ever ever book with them again I’m surprised they are still legally allowed to run.

THEY DESERVE ZERO STARS Where do you actually start with these absolute morons. They call you to say your refund is being processed to stop you writing reviews!! Customer service is zilch, they have had my refund from easyjet but are still not refunding. YOU ARE THIEFS!! My hotel has never been paid for so you have nearly £1200 of my money. AVOID AT ALL COST. PAY YOUR CUSTOMERS BACK. TT773817

Teletext just phoned to tell me i wasnt getting the refund i requested in MAY (now august) but great news they have rebooked us for nxt year, without asking .... about 4 times i had to repeat thats no use as i am due a baby in november and there will be 5 of us .. so then his attitude changed n he got soo cheeky saying well thats fine u'll get a refund when we have the money... then he hung up 😐 Soo this pregnant carer who has worked through the pandemic needs to just wait for another god knows how long with a furloughed husband and growing debts thanks teletext top notch service.

My son and his group of friends who are just 18years old have laid out £470 each on a package holiday to lloret on the 10th August! They’ve tried to get a refund but been fobbed off.... really poor service I listened in on the call they made. They’ve save up for this with money from their weekend jobs whilst studying! Just wrong on every level! I will spread this all over social media and the press if this is not resolved to warn others!

Teletext holidays were my favourite travel agent, I've used them for about 10 years! They have no problems at all taking your money but when it comes to them having to refund your money they seem to deal with this in such an unprofessional way! I've been shrugged off, lied to, been made to wait for long amounts of time on the phone, cut off! I've sent messages and emails and have been so patient with everyone I have spoken to and have gotten nowhere! I've wasted a lot of time chasing up! I was due to fly out on 7th of May 2020 I booked this holiday back in July 2019. This holiday was cancelled because of Thomas Cook collapsing in September last year. I patently waited 3 months after speaking to them in January I was expecting my refund to paid into my account in the beginning of March as they said. I did not receive my refund. Every time I rang after not receiving refund I was given a different date, I've been given 3 different dates so far! I was supposed to be refunded on 31st of July surprise surprise still no refund!!! Teletext holidays are nothing but scamming thieves that are full of empty promises, a total let down! I will never use them again even if you do decide to pay me back my money. You should be ashamed of yourselves! I do not recommend this company to anyone unless you want to be driven insane! if you value your mental health I advise you don't put yourselves through what I and hundreds of others have been through. It's really not worth it!

Ref TT776839 Been sending email after email, live chat what a joke, trying to get some kind of customer service from these guys but no reply from them. Ryanair has been in touch with me saying they are changing my flight time/day and need to know if it's ok? But nothing from Teletext saying it's ok and the hotel will change as well. Customer care and service as been exceptionally poor. Would be nice to speak to a human being. Never Again!!

This company is the worst I have ever come across, they have had my holiday money since the beginning of July when easyjet transferred it to them, I was promised it back by the 31st of July, was kept on hold 4 times for 40 minutes. Customer service is awful, I would advise no one to travel with this company.

I booked a holiday last year for the end of July 2020, I was advised by Jet2 a month ago that the flights were cancelled. I have had no communication at all from Teletext about the cancelled flights and so it is lucky that I received the communication I did from Jet2. Teletext continue to send me emails about my holiday advising me to check in, which terminal to use etc. Teletext have even personally replied to my emails brazenly informing me that my flights are going ahead, which is an utter lie. Jet2 have confirmed a refund has been processed 3 weeks ago, as it stands I am nearly £2000 down and have not seen a penny from Teletext. The wait to speak to someone at the contact centre varies between 2 and 3 hours but always with the same result, as soon as you query a refund the call is disconnected. Teletext, the best thing would be for you to go bust so that I can claim via ABTA, my only other option currently is to go via the small claims court, something I have never had to do before. Avoid this company at all costs.

Anyone thinking of booking a holiday should avoid teletext holidays. Our experience mirrors all what has been said by others on here. I urge anyone who has had the same appalling experience as we have to take teletext holidays to the small claims court as we are in the process of doing ourselves. The more people that do this, the better.

If I could give less than 1 star, I would. I've used On The Beach for over 10 years. This was my first experience using Teletext - NEVER AGAIN!!!! I am in despair!! Our best friends wedding has been cancelled in Zante in September due to Covid-19 but I have been calling and emailing Teletext to postpone our holiday to the new date of the wedding next year as wont be able to afford to go twice. I have received no response to any of my emails and I'm on hold circa 40 minutes every time I call only for it to cut off their end. I am so desperate to get hold of them. I will be heartbroken if I cant go to my friends wedding next year and have to go to Zante for no reason in September.

Never will I book a holiday with teletext again. We have paid over £10,400 on a group booking holiday to Portugal, easyJet had cancelled our flights, o have emails from them stating I am entitled to a full refund. No one answers the phone, when they eventually do they are rude and obnoxious, they pressure you in booking another holiday with a credit note. I want a full cash refund issued back, which I am entitled too. How this company is still trading i do not know!. Something needs to be done about this.

I've been waiting for refund for our replacement honeymoon after been left in stranded in Turkey by teletext holidays and easyjet. We paid for emergency flight home to east midlands airport hire a car to get us to gatwick. I've emailed, live chatted 100s of times. They promise to pay refund which easyjet has confirmed they gave paid to teletext holidays even providing me with last 4 digits of teletext holidays credit card. Worst of all they keep sending me message via messager that I should be more understanding as they are working in a parademic situation (I do know I'm a nhs frontline worker!!!!). I'm approx £700 down. I have now had to do a small claim court claim because that is the only way I can get my money back. Shame on you teletext holidays frontline worker having to fight for their monies back. Ignoring all emails including wayne perks.

Absolutely horrible company, was told my money would be paid by today, even though company has had my flight money from easyjet for the last 3 weeks, had to use my own money to pay one member of our party, would not even give them the one star, if it wasn't for the fact of writing this review. I intend to put this review up on every site I can find, as well as on a daily basis
