We booked a holiday with Tim @ Planet Travel Direct and initally were pleased with the customer service & response.
In the run up to our holiday we decided to pay to upgrade our accomodation - either in terms of the hotel or just our room in the hotel.
We rang Planet travel 7 times and each time were promised a call back, "that afternoon", "within the hour" "the following morning". I was told that "Tim is very busy, he was hear until midnight last night" - Not my problem.
In the end we just gave up rather than spend anymore money with such a rude and unhelpful company. One wonders if I didn't get a call back because commission on an upgrade is low???
Dont use them - I have seen other poor reviews.
                    
                                    
            
                
                i had the same answer from them "will ring you back" twice , we went elsewhere.
                
                
                
                                    
            
            
        
                
                i rang them to make alterations to my forthcoming holiday, no problems getting through , my request were confirmed by post within 2 days
