I was unable to take my flight to South Korea, so I asked to have a refund for the taxes, as that was only what I was told was available for me. I sent off the online forms and was told that it could take up to 6 weeks. After nearly 8 weeks and many hours phoning up the company, to have the phone put down on me. When I pretended to have an account with them, I finally spoke to somebody but they were extremely rude and put the gone down on me. I called back and they continued to be dismissive and extremely unhelpful. I’m now into the 8th week and have said that I would escalate this further but I’d definitely say that you should stay away from this company. They are fine for deals but if there are any problems or refunds involved, you could be waiting a while.....

I agree with all the reviews which say this travel agents is rubbish! I have tried to contact them for a week now and they are still to reply! I just phoned the London number shown on the website and finally someone answered - he said his name was Simon and was either drunk, tired or not bothered! He slurred his words and was apathetic!!! He also said that the number was the Chinese office and gave me another number for the London office - 0870 7703888 which is another dud number! I have tried all the other numbers shown on the website but they just ring for a while and then disconnect. What an absolute shambles - should be removed from being a travel agent!

I have used Omega Travel regularly in the past and have not had any problems before so have never had to contact them. However, this is the first time I’ve needed to contact Customer Services and it’s been a rubbish experience. I have been trying to get through to Omega Travel since 29 August re flights booked in July as I wanted to change the date of the outbound flight (24 September). After no response from their online form or numerous phone calls at various times of the day to all their branches (I kept being put on hold and the line cut off after 10-15 minutes), I contacted the airline (Cathay Pacific) directly on 6 September, after having read an article about them having their ATOL licence suspended. They said Omega Travel were still operating so I had to keep trying them. I was so desperate to try everything possible, apart from sending an e-mail to all the branch e-mail addresses and their customer support e-mail address on their website, I even put a copy of my e-mails in the post to their Head Office in Milton Keynes on 19 September marked ‘Urgent’ as the flight date was nearing. On 21 September (2 days before the scheduled flight) I rang Cathay Pacific back and they were able to help cancel the outbound flight. They kept the return flight open to keep the booking alive in their system, in the hope that my uncle would be well enough to travel by 30 October (as the ticket has 3 months of validity, the outbound journey has to start by 30 October). However, I had to let them know by today if this was feasible. Unfortunately, we have no choice but to cancel the booking entirely. They advised me that any cancellations and refunds have to be processed directly with the ticketing agency. This morning I tried calling the Head Office number at 10.00 am (01908 259988). I was so happy when someone answered the phone, but unfortunately the lady only spoke Mandarin Chinese, no English! I can understand some Mandarin Chinese - and she could understand very little Cantonese Chinese. She eventually understood I was ringing about flights that had already been booked but she was saying she couldn't help as she didn't know what the situation was with the flights department. She was telling me to contact the airline. I told her that the airline said I needed to cancel with them. I needed to speak to someone who spoke English really, because I couldn't get her to understand that I wanted to cancel and make sure we didn't incur cancellation charges/further charges. I had read on their Terms and Conditions that there was a form we had to fill in. She understood that I wanted to speak to someone who spoke English and told me to stay on the line as she transferred me but I was cut off after hearing an automated message that said the number was no longer valid. I then tried her number again twice but she didn't pick up. So I then tried the London branch number and very surprisingly, the same woman picked up! She said she will try and put me through to another team. Again, this other number she had put me through to, an automated message said, this number is not in service! I’m not sure there is anything more I can do really….

Have tried to cancel my booking with them for the past 3 weeks. Have tried to contact them by email and by phone. Email isn't being responded to and the phone number doesn't even exist! Don't use this company!

Is there some sort of Ombudsman you can contact to complain about Omega? My daughter booked flights to New York through Omega flying from Glasgow-Amsterdam-JFK. The JFK to Amsterdam leg was cancelled and I was told by Omega that we would receive a full refund. On top of that I booked upgraded seats directly with KLM. This was booked in July 2017 and our trip was in April 2018. Here we are in October 2018 and I cannot for the life of me get anyone at Omega to answer the phone. I tried today for my whole lunch hour, to no avail!!! The phone rings for 17 mins each time and then cuts off, I tried 3 times today. I have also been emailing them on a weekly basis for the last few months, again no reply. If this was my money I was losing I wouldn't mind so much but this was my daughter's present to me for my 60th birthday and it's just not on.

Wish I could put 0. Omega contacted me to say that Emirates have cancelled my flights and to contact them urgently - this is a complete joke as I have been spending hours each day phoning only to be waiting for 30 to 40 minutes then the phone is answered - you can hear voices and then cut off. I have emailed daily for several weeks sometimes several times and shock horror - nothing!! Completely AVOID at all costs - the prices do not warrant the stress. I have now contacted ATOL and my insurance company, who also had the same experience. AVOID! AVOID! AVOID!

I have been trying for over 3 weeks to contact omega flight store, as I need to change my flight. I have rang every number that is associated with the company, multiple times over the past 3 weeks. There has never been anyone answer. I have had no response via email either. I’m a young girl travelling to Australia. I’m going to have to lose out on over £500 because of this and I’m extremely upset and disappointed. I will never book with omega flight stores again.

Worst service ever. Please do not book your tickets via them even if its the last option available. There is no way to reach them. The number dont work most of the times, even if they do you'll wait endlessly for hours. And if you email/fill form they will never respond.

Been trying to contact them now for over two weeks to make an amendment to my booking. No luck whats so ever. They do not pick up the phone and if they do its the wrong department. They then try and tell you to contact the airline direct as all their logins have been blocked. The airline says that they cannot amend due to the Trade Licence signed by Omega? What is happening??

Ok So I booked a Flight on or around mid August. I’ve sent 3 online requests to have a member of Omega ring or email me with some information. I’ve spent hours on hold and to this moment I’ve still had no reply.... No very happy to say the least and with only around 6 weeks before I fly I’ve still no Etickets or had my Questions answered!! What adds insult to injury is the fact that while your on hold for hours, these Clowns profess to say your call is important to them.. Or better Still... Our service is second to none... who are they trying to kid?? Absolutely S**t.... At one point I was going to Upgrade to Business but I won’t bother now Omega flight store ... I wouldn’t/won’t use them again and I must warn others no to bother, there’s much better services out there, who actually do care!!

If this company has been gone bust why is this they still operating and selling. This company name should be published in the big news paper to inform all other people to avoid booking any holiday or flights. They are not refunding our money or answer any telephone or response to email. Now we should get legal advice.

I've used this company many times and until recently they were great, I believe they have gone into administration and advise anyone that have booked flights through this company to contact the airline directly, for most people this should solve your problem, I had an email saying my return flight had been cancelled and that I needed to arrange a new return flight and to contact Omega, like everyone else I was unable to get through by phone or email, but after contacting the airline directly I was able to sort everything out. I hope this is of help to people and wish everyone good luck, please try to contact the airline directly

Very poor service, kept me waiting for over 30 minutes playing the same self aggrandising repetititive and wearisome phrases. Clearly their manager needs to sit listen and see it from the other end. One of the poorest recording loops ,it does not give you a position in the queue and treats customers very poorly. I will hold my breath if they call me back with a reply to my email.

They got their license suspended, ask the airline directly to help you with any request by telling them that and they should be able to assist. Worked for me.

I would have given them 0 if there is one available. I needed to speak to an advisor regarding my flight booking. The number provided in the confirmation does not exit. I called premium number which was provided in the ticket. I was put on hold for more than an hour but eventually I had to give up. I mailed and filled the contact form twice as URGENT. You will find it easy to give away your money at the booking time. But when you need to speak to them none of the phone are working. I wonder if this company really exit in the address as they says

received an email telling me the details for my flight had changed and that I needed to contact them immediately. Called multiple numbers repeatedly, and they either hung up, cut out, or rang out. Their online customer support to ask for support, does not respond (e..g i've put a call in a month ago and still hasn't been answered, despite them stating they have a 48 hour turnaround time). I've been trying to contact someone about the details on my booking since i made the booking and again, all phone numbers are invalid or ring out / cut off, the emails are never responded to, and logging a call online does not even get answered.
