Ibibo Group / Goibibo Complaints & Reviews

I found Go Ibibo as the worst company to deal with.I booked the tickets on 17th june which resulted in a failure.On calling then numerous times,I got the same answer that the money will be reverted back within 5 to 7 working days which never came.Its been 3 months I have been calling them and writing mails..Such companies should be bring down to ground as they have no right to stand in the market..

Hi

We booked two tickets in an Indian Airlines flight. Firstly the transaction did not go thru but the money got debited. When we called the travel desk helpline, they managed to get us the PNR. Then we had to cancell those tickets. Its been more than 20 days now, and yet there has been no initiative of re fund taken from their end. There is no response if I call the helpline either. I guess this can be fixed only if taken to the consumer court.

Discount not provided
Hi,

I had booked 2 tickets from Mumbai to New Delhi for the date 23rd June 2010 on flight 6E182.

The fare for the flight was INR 2994 per ticket and there was an offer going on that if I book the ticket through HDFC Credit Card an Additional Discount of INR 250 could be availed.

I had booked the above ticket through an HDFC Credit Card which was supposed to cash backed after 3-7 days, but the amount that was creadited to HDFC account was only INR 250.

The PNR for both the tickets is as follows:

H54RBD
S547AA

Request you to kindly refund an amount of INR 250 to my HDFC Account.

I doubt if ibibo has a customer care cell, I have been trying these customer care number since last couple of days, [protected] and[protected]. Neither do they ever transfer the line to the executive, nor have they sent me the airtickets on mail. I think my tickets are not booked either. Its a messy service altogether. My credit card is also not debited yet, which means that my tkts are not booked.

Dear Sir,

I booked a ticket today via your website "goibibo.ibibo.com" and i filled journey date 01/07/2010. and while after booking and money transffer i get a ticket for 01/08/2010. And as this ticket was non refundable so it charge me 5000/- Rs for cancellation. This should not be the way a online system going with internal errors.

Ticket booked for Delhi to Kolkata PNR No. FMN08TPRIGE

Goibibo is biggest cheat company my refund is pending from 25 days have called on gurgaon office for 18 times & spoken to 9 people but all of them are cheats

No response , they are giving fake transaction ID of refund. They do not allow people to talk to managers

Its a Big cheat company !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,

GOIBIBO - Your Money will GO....In BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I have booked a ticket in GOIBIBO for Pune to Chenai for SpiceJet Airlines... After my money is transferred , my ticket status was "Awaiting For Confirmation from Airlines " Then after 3 hrs l received a call from a customer care number and I was asked for additonal amount of Rs:600 { 4,200 was the amount at the time of booking}

When i asked the reason why the tickets were not booked they answered that at the time of booking the fare was increased by the airlines. Then their planned GOIBIBO serial drama has started

When I demanded my money back, the customer care person replied that it will revert backed within 7 to 8 working days.

I faced a lot of trouble .... It has been almost 40 days... Still i am waiting for my amount... Then I came to know that ... they are playing the same drama to most of the people... And thy are earning the interest from the money...

Biggest fraud .. in the Name of Cheapest Flight Booking... Friends BE AWARE...

I have booked one ticket from Bangalore to Patna ( PNR No. - FMN05RX24EL ) from Ibibo on 21st of december '09 and due to unavailability of seat the charged amount 16939 Rs is to be refunded back with in 7-10 working days as checked with Ibibo customer care on the same day.
A Ibibo complaint no . 1001151 which was raised against refund of the amount charged by Ibibo against unconfirmed ticket booking.

Till now, the said amount not yet credited back to the account.It's almost a month now just 2-3 times of normal processing time for refund.

I checked it many times at customer care but they don't have answer for it.Apart from this everytime I am listening "It will be done in two-three working days". I am requesting you to please look in to this matter and help me out with this.

I have booked my tickets on 31st of December 2009 with amount of Rs. 11022 but my ticket was not booked due to some problem in GOIBIBO'S network. I contacted them and they said it was a network problem so book again and your money will be refunded within next 5 to 7 days. I booked tickets with price around 2000rs higher as prices got hicked overnight. Since then i am calling their customer care till day for refund of money but again and again they are saying that it is in process. I am a student and dont have that much of finances to get things done but they are not understanding my problem. instead they are keeping my money with them as its almost a month now. please help me and also suggest me how i can go against them legally so that no one in future can become a victim of such organization.

I booked flight tickets from GOIBIBO.COM on 24th Dec 2009 through DEBIT Card.
But,due to website failure,my flight amount Rs. 12858/- got debited from my bank account.
I called lot of times,but the call centre executives,supervisors even Manager Mohit,they all lied to me,Everytime they told that my refund will process within 7 business days.
Now,It has been almost 1 month and i did not get my money back.

Hi,

I recently booked a air ticket from Ibibo.com from Delhi to Banglore (3 tickets return flight).The airlines was Indigo.At the time of booking the website was was quoting the

total fare as Rs 24500/= which was cheaper than any other website(Makemytrip,yatra etc).The amout was about Rs 1200 less than other sites.

So i booked the ticket and the amount was deducted from my bank account.
br...

i have booked 4 tickets from delhi to mumbai. the booking ticket PNR is BLKWMK, after that i cancelled 1 ticket from those 4 tickets the PNR of which is BIJIVH.
i contacted ibibo people regarding this , their reply was like you will get yourrefund within 15 working days but now its around 2 months have been passed. i hv contacted 6-8 times, each time i call they are not responding properly and cut the phone call.
please help

All this happened for a discount of Rs 200 which tempted me to book a ticket on GOIBIBO.

I booked a ticket on Indigo Airlines on 6th Dec from Hyderabad to Bangalore. I got a message that the transaction failed after the payment was made through net banking and money was taken from my Icici account.
I immediately contacted the helpline on [protected]. They told me it would take at least 7 working days for me to get the money back on my account. I also sent an e-mail to [protected]@ibibogroup.com and got the reply that the refund would be made within 7 working days.
After waiting for 7 working days I contacted them again. Now a series of e-mail exchange followed till dec 23 2009. Then they gave me a transaction number and said the refund has been completed from their end. But I have not received the money.
After another e-mail exchange, they gave me another transaction number saying that the transaction has been completed from their end and I have to contact my bank. I have not received my money till now.
I called them on the helpline again and was explained to follow up on the e-mail which was already leading me nowhere.
I am also attaching the e-mail communication between me and IBIBO.com. The support has been kind enough to reply to all me e-mails. But the main motto refund of my money did not happen till now.
note I am not creating a complaint to get help to get back my money.
With this all I want to make consumers aware.

[protected] PLEASE BEWARE OF CHEAP TICKETS and DISCOUNTS you GET on GOIBIBO.[protected]
YOU MAY GET THE TICKETS CHEAPER THAN ON OTHER WEBSITES, BUT IN CASES THE TRANSACTION FAILS AND YOU HAVE TO UNDERGO THE PAIN OF STRUGGLING TO GET YOUR MONEY BACK. I HAVE NOT GOT MY MONEY BACK TILL NOW. The EFFORT I HAVE PUT IN FOLLOWING UP IS WORTH TWICE THE VALUE OF THE MONEY.

So even if I get back my money….so much of my time has already wasted on the follow up who is going to pay for that and the pain of follow.
All this happened for a discount of Rs 200 which tempted me to book a ticket on GOIBIBO.


Thanks
Manmath.

It is already 6 days sinc the amount was credited into your account. Now that you have identified why not credit it back to my account immediately. You are keeping my Money and not going to pay me any intrest. 15 days is a long to settle a failed transaction.

If you have processed the refund I should have got that in my account. There is no such payment. If you give me the transaction ID where am I supposed to check this. I have done enough from myside to followup this issue. Now it is more than 20 days.
You can't just say you have made a payment and close the issue when the payment is not received by me.
Hats off to your systems which always fail the transactions so that you can get enough intrest on the customers money.

I am raising the consumer issue online.

Thanks
Manmath.

Hello,

First you said the amount should be deposited in my Account in the next 7 days. That was told to me on 11th Dec. Now it is 29th Dec and you have given me tw different transaction numbers that the refund is completed from your end.

Please explain me if you refunded yourself. I have not received any money in my account and you give me some imaginary transaction number.


This is too much for me to digest and you guys keep playing with my money and wasting my time.

Manmath.

Hello friends this is the information i brought to u, was very helpful to u, as once i searched on net for a low price ticket booking then i got GOIBIBO.COM site which showed some offers,

They really a fraud one, i missed out to see their status on consumercomplaint.in so friend kindly dont use that site any more please, as i lost my amount Rs.1200 for the offer they Showned on their site of Rs.200.
As after booked tickets for 2 persons and paid money through netbanking,waited for status and they called and asked 1200 more so on that condition i paid as i have to, so dont choose this please my friends.
