Directed to Smartfares site via Skyscanner for a flight to Thailand, £706 per flight X2. Paid for seat allocation, another £36. Paid on my credit card and waited for confirmation e-mail. I then receive an e-mail stating that my reservation was not confirmed and I had to call Smartfares to verify my booking. The operative then tells me that the flight I had booked has'nt been released yet (Christmas 2025) and that particular flight would be £1450 each.I informed the operative that it's illegal to offer flights that are'nt available and refund my money immediately.It took 3 days to refund my money. Avoid this company at all costs
Dear Customer,
We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience, and we understand your frustration.
After looking over your case, we found that we couldn't confirm your reservation because the fare we initially offered was no longer available. The fares displayed on our platform are real-time and depend on seat availability, which can change rapidly. As a travel agency, we do not control the airline’s inventory, and despite our best efforts, we couldn’t secure the ticket at the advertised fare. As a result, we had no choice but to cancel the transaction.
We’d also like to clarify that when a transaction is cancelled, the original authorization should typically disappear from your statement within 24-48 hours. However, some banks may not immediately recognize void requests, which can result in a delay in updating your statement.
We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused and appreciate your understanding.
Regards,
Team Smartfares

Dear Customer,
We apologize for any confusion regarding currency conversion. We aim to provide transparent pricing throughout the booking process, and we regret if this was not your experience.
Please be advised that selecting a currency other than USD is done to provide you with the equivalent fare for the chosen currency. However, it is important to note that on the final booking page, just above the 'BOOK' tab, the total trip cost is clearly specified in USD.
We recommend verifying the currency conversion details with your bank, as the conversion process is managed by the credit card issuing bank. This will ensure clarity and transparency regarding the final amount charged.
If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at [email protected]. We appreciate your understanding and hope to have the opportunity to serve you better in the future.
Regards,
Team Smartfares
The site was easy to use but did not appreciate the following calls
Answer: Smartfares! They will offer a deeply discounted airfare and send you a confirmation number to your email. The next day you will receive an email to call them immediately because they were unable to confirm your flight. When you call them back, they will try to sell you another flight at a much higher price. SCAM SCAM AVOID!
Answer: I could no agree more. They are also very rude. Did not received my confirmation until a day before departure and I had to call them to get it. When I asked how to check in as they booked me with 2 different airlines they responded can you read?

Answer: Yes. They stated because of flight increase they canceled my flights. Then they wanted me to pay a balance of what the new increase was. So disappointing. I paid for four fares. They took the funds from the bank n then canceled my flights.
