As I have stated Tui living in cloud cuckoo land ...no information or advice how to get tests done in resort...who is going to deal with this BS alone ? "and you may be denied boarding" GREAT...it's obviously too complex to deal with so they have given it a swerve
397 p....Ladies and Gentlemen we have started our descent into reality
I told TUI what would happen if they did not give BORIS his money back straight away for his cancelled holiday to the Caribbean but they said they needed the interest. Now look what he has done!!!
Just looked at TUI website absolutely nothing about how to get tested for return to UK !
Add to that mortgage holidays...credit card holidays....rent moratorims and you get A housing Boom how many housing bubble are the tories going to blow on the previous bubbles after CAm Moron said he would burst Labours housing bubble. Now youu are beginning to see their priorities them and their mates....back to TUI....it's more hassle now to go on holiday than it was last year...with no vax no test just rock up and fly.....now what a palaver after all these vax's me included...green list amber list....oh no that's now amber blah bah....and still on my flight tracker the india flights go....Lahore Delhi etc etc as they have been for months......what an incompetent shower who rule us....at the first sight of a half decent opposition in move the media attack dogs....and we didnt even have before Starmer a half decent opposition just someone who was prepared to be radical....welcome to the one party state post brexit voted for by blue loving wallies...the only answer is not to vote en masse...only that will usher in panic and change in the political class....because if you take their mandate away they have no power.....I want Tui to succeed and these morons are stopping that !
I didn't vote for Alexander Johnson...seems to me he was voted for by baby boomers who applaud house price inflation...more more and more as they have been doing for decades happily sentencing the young to debt servitude via the uk housing pyramid scheme that benefits early entrants....they also voted for brexit when they are not the ones who be participants in that future....what was Sunaks first response to covid ? Remove stamp duty to inject some fervour into the housing market because of that comes unglued the banks are technically insolvent and the uk economy is house prices and nothing else....Napoleon called us a nation of shopkeepers....he would laugh at our housing obsession today ...i can assure you the Germans think we are stone cold crazy in that regard.....but of course Germany is much more a country for the majority of its people not a privleged few
Tui is not responsible for UK government change policy like changing underwear. You take the risk when travelling during these times. You elected this current ****bags, enjoy the benefits the brexit bring regarding travel in EU.
Just been reading the tales from the portugal travellers...750 pounds for covid test...ruined holidays stress. As i said last year went with tui....covid cover included no tests there or here...bliss....fast forward to mass vaccinations and neither the govt or tui can get theor act together.....covid test before travel and after regardless of vaccinations...changed traffic light system at last minute......TUI should be ashamed of themselves for not sorting out the covid tests for their passengers...links on website DO NOT CUT IT Tui ! It's a shambles and TUi and i am sure others are not covering themselves in glory....airlines ready to stitch you up in a heartbeat at the sniff of profit....they make holidaying miserable....all for a qquick buck....you want travel back ? Encourage it don;t profiteer....Uber by contrast offers huge discounts to get people to start travelling around and the drivers stoically suck it up....the govt and the travel industry and tui should be ashamed of the,selves but then they have no shame like Alexander Johnson commonly known as Boris by his PR team !
Well, we were due to go to Gran Canaria on the 14th but have just had it cancelled. That's a bit annoying, as I only had a mail yesterday saying that only holidays to La Palma were cancelled and the other Islands were still ok.
Whatever, we can cancel for a full refund or re-book with a 20% incentive.
The car hire can be cancelled for a refund, as can the covid tests I booked just last night.
I really can't fault TUI, tbh and haven't seen anything to make me say they're trying to keep money back?
I don;t know why anyone has been or is booking a holiday in these circumstances. Last year Tui had a great covid cover package as the weasel insurers wriggled out after policies had been bought. I really hoping they are hurting now with no policy sales and renewals (like mine) cancelled.
But I booked with just days to go ...no vax required...no tests either end. I looked into this rcently with Tui....don;t make me laugh...no covid cover now an extra....tui hadn;t got their heads around testing on way back from what i could see. Add to this the clown show of BJ and co....I mean just don;t do it !
As a plane nerd i have watched flights come and go from Uk airports regularly to India for months and months, this has caused the latest problem. And the lack of willingness to address it has now threatened all the hardship we have undergone....will add lastly the lack of any kind of journalism.....stop being talking heads....and chellenge govt....you could have done with with a free downloadsed app on your phone and watched all those aircraft and asked whY ? But thats not what the likes of the media luvvies are about they are just empty heads
Public billboard so again will use it as I have become a grumpy, moody old so and so, not just from this TUI experience but it hasn't helped!
Anyway typical, Zante has now been cancelled so had I been brave enough or took a huge gamble I would have in fact recieved all of my money back which is what I felt I fully deserved.
But having been forced to make a decision by 28th may or risk losing all my money if Zante stayed amber I was forced to book the cheapest amended holiday to get as much money back as possible, which meant TUI was able to keep as much of my money as possible.
I wont type what i really want to about this company as there are TUI shareholders and not their fault, But I reiterate that they dont care about their customers, and keeping as much of the customers money as possible is far more important than doing the right thing by them.
Well see where Tui are in the next 3 months, going to be extremeley tough for them losing another summer.
Very best of luck to shareholders, with this lot in charge imo you are going to need it!
Of course no sympathy from Tui as guess what I've amended so nothing they can do.
Utter nonsense! sounds a bit like sour grapes, hope you didn’t lose too much, will be £5 plus here by July/August
Yes you are right pleased I got out a while ago Tui in last throws of death just sold all their hotels so directors could pocket their final bonus before the CRASH.
Shakineven , i do sympathise with you but it is LEGAL to go to Greece. It is the government who has imposed quarantine laws for amber countries and It is the government you should blame not Tui. This is a situation where a good travel insurance policy may have been advisable as they may have been able to cover such an eventuality!
Shakineven Complain to the UK C E O Find him on website CEO email I do and get results
Public board so will use it!
But my apologies to TUI share holders.
Fuming with TUI Cost me £1,000 (having managed to get back £2,000) through no fault of my own having to cancel my upcoming holiday in June to Zante having already ammend from last year. Sister in laws wedding now cancelled. Didnt want to re-ammend again but told we had to or lose 90% of the holiday.
So have re-ammended to the cheapest holiday i could find next year with zero intention of going just so I could recoup as much of MY MONEY as possible.
Absolute disgrace of a company, with Zero compassion from the branch we visited.
Will pass my opinion about TUI whenever i get asked about them. Never use them again!
Rant over!
