I was returning to Dubai from India and did not want to spend a huge amount. Mine was a last moment booking from this website, yet I managed the tickets at a great price. The discount was attractive to say the least.

Booked a flight 48 hours before it was supposed to leave. Never managed to get the confirmation email. Tried calling around 20 times during a 8 hour period, but issue was never resolved, and im not even lying. Never ended up leaving, and had to book a flight a couple days later.
I dont quite get their strategy, but it truly pisses me off. Do not have a single good word to say about them.

More information to just make sure everyone knows how incompetent this company is:
First of all, I book the ticket with around a 36 hour notice. This should be good enough in most cases. The airport several hours away, which already leaves me short on time.
First additional thing I have to do is to fill out the authorization form for the payment of the ticket. That works out fine, but the process takes a while. We will leave that there. They said I will have the ticket issued in one hour. And here it goes. 17 phone calls made. Just been told a lie every single time.
First call is around 6pm, and they say the ticket should be issued in one hour. I call back several times with the same answer. The standard answers: "the team is working on it right now and it will be issued in 2 hours."
At 2am, I start to get worried. Its 4 hours until I need to leave my house to reach my flight. I ask them one last time how long it will be. This guy asks the team, the team tells him 10 minutes, he then goes on to tell me 30 minutes just to be safe.
At around 3am I call back, im in a hurry now, and the answer I get now is to wait until the morning to get the tickets issued? The flight leaves in 10 hours, I need to leave within 3 hours. And they tell me to wait until the morning for the tickets to be issues? I mean, after telling me 10 times 2 hours, 30 mins, and 1 hour they go on an tell me in the morning.

All went smoothly
January 25, 2016

My husband used Faregeek to book return flights from London to USA - he recently returned from his trip. He got a good price, communication with the airline was excellent: (e-mail notification every time the flight times changed prior to departure and queries were answered promptly. No problems at all with tickets, payment or flights. Can't fault them.

The mobile app for this website is pretty impressive. You just need to download it in your mobile akin to any other app and start using it. I used it to book my tickets to Geneva and the process was smooth and easy.
