I will write my full review about MakeMyTrip. I had seen one Nepal tour package of 6D/5N with flights and all day to day activities with private car and 3 stars hotels its was showing 27500+ INR per person. If I book for 2 travelers I would get 18500+ INR discount so I calculated my amount its was 36500+ INR + taxes so not more than of 40000 INR for 2 travelers. When I tried to book its was showing me 73600+ INR and after discount deduction its was 58600+ INR + taxes. This clearly show that MMT is just showing less price to attractive customers and when you checkout it would increase a lots. I did some more research and did individually than the Nepal tour with same day to day activities, car, hotels etc everything with taxes included was not gone more than of 37000 INR.
I had talked with MMT customer care and tourist experts why this is lots of gap prices. They just replied that it's included service charges for you. Hahahahahaha cool. I told them I had read your reviews that once you get full amount you even not care of tourist for any support. They replied that please it's your final decision to go with MMT or books everything individually yourself. I did myself and saved lots of money. SO PLEASE YOU DO SO BOOK EVERYTHING YOUR OWN AND SAVE MONEY AND STAY AWAY FROM MMT. Thank you.

MMTBlack is advertised as a programme where you don't pay cancellation charges for your next five bookings. The money they refund goes into your MMT wallet, so you don't get the money back, but can use it for your next booking. I cancelled a Delhi Dehradun ticket Booking ID ** on 20th September 30 hours before my flight. I had paid Rs 2633 for my ticket - Dehradun to Delhi. Initially I wanted to change my ticket to a later flight and managed to talk to them, but they said the Black programme does not cover change in flight time, but I would get a refund if I cancelled.
Then I fell ill and had to cancel. They refunded only Rs 120 to me under the MMTBlack programme. This programme is a complete scam. I tried to call them but kept getting automated responses which redirected me to their online help, which has only canned answers and those canned answers did not cover the MMTBlack cancellation details. All it says is that the amount will be refunded in your wallet but not that the amount is not even 5% of your airfare. Don't waste your money on MMT Black, it's a con job.

I happened to book a international flight with wrong dates. When I understood the mistake and managed to re-schedule the travel date through the App and website it says call the customer support toll free number as re-scheduling cannot be done online. When called the customer support they re-directed to do online and say they cannot do it. Are you ** kidding? Do you think we are jobless scratching our ** off doing nothing? I have lost a day's pay off only because trying to call and get in touch with any travel executive of MakeMyTrip.com. And moreover this is not the first experience. Previously many times we have faced such issues. Never recommend this ** site for anyone I come across.

MMT cheats people by initially showing less price and while booking increases the price (excluding taxes). I'll never suggest anyone to MakeMyTrip. I wasted my time here for hotel room booking. And even tried to find ways to match the initial price and booking amount price but couldn't get success. LIARS MMT!! CHEATERS MMT!!

To begin with, We got our travel vouchers after much followup, just a day before we were supposed to travel. Then MakeMyTrip forgot to inform our hotel what time we were arriving. We had to take a short flight from Male airport to our resort island. We were accommodated on the last flight to our resort which was at 11 pm. After travelling all night from India, changing several flights, we were told to wait all day at the airport for a short 20 minutes flight to our resort. We begged the airlines to help us and they said they would see if there are any seats on earlier flights.
After waiting for 4 hours at the airport with our 5 year old kid we were finally put on a 2:30 pm flight and reached the resort at 4:30 pm. The day was almost over and we were too tired to do anything. We had some food and went to bed. Our entire day out of a 3 day trip was thus ruined. This is definitely the last time we booked through MakeMyTrip. After this horrible experience we will suggest everyone we know to never go with MakeMyTrip.

I booked my flights through this company and my return flight was canceled by the airline. I bought insurance, which turned out to be useless and had to pay extensive fees to cancel the first flight. This company I booked through was no help to me at all, ignored me and didn't try to assist me at all. I can't even get in touch with them over the phone. The number doesn't work.

MMT guys are not providing the rooms in discounted price when their partnered hotels are providing. It is always better to verify the prices of their partnered hotels first directly rather than blindly booking from these travel sites. I have experienced such issue recently when I physically got to know during the stay at the hotel. The partner hotel were offering 50% discount but MakeMyTrip were charging their customers at regular price and were not ready to compensate for the same.

Undersign booked a cab through MAKEMYTRIP under BOOKING ID: **, in this transaction our views as under: Executive are not fully knowledgeable. They cheat to customer for booking. They confirm short distance but charge extra amount to every customer cab driver choose long way. Cab are not well furnished, cab driver misbehave to customer. For collecting the extra charge they cannot confirm roadmap. For any issue MakeMyTrip executive are not interested to clear the same time and disconnecting the telephone line. We strongly suggested to every gentleman do not book cab. bus, or other service provided by MakeMyTrip for any circumstances. We are fully against them.

I had planned for a third tour with MakeMyTrip and this was again bad experience. We had planned our international tour and the team had rushed on the bookings and embassy visit without properly verifying the documents for embassy visit as they have a team who gives assistance. Our Visa got rejected and before that date itself we were rushed to make the full payment of the tour. Now we didn't had enough time to reapply as our tour date was after 8 days and due to which they asked us to either bear penalty if wanted to change tour date which was a lakh or whole the if we cancel the whole amount will go in their pocket. I had tried to reach all the team and without giving any justification from higher authorities they just say, "Sorry. We tried best but couldn't do anything."
We somehow paid some amount for date change but we also wanted penalty to be reduced which they have still not resolved and asking to make the rest of the payments as soon as before the tour starts. Team members are not efficient enough to even resolve the queries and will just listen and write a sorry mail. This has been continuing from last 2 months and just asking to make payments. No explanation from the team from any levels as they have no clue and do not take cases seriously. I would personally do not recommend henceforth for MakeMyTrip as this was our last tour with whole amount at stake.

Worst ever experience with MakeMyTrip. Experience is really bad right from the discussion with the executive. I actually booked the trip for my parents and I wanted to have more places to visit in every location that I am visiting. The places that I opted for are Delhi, Agra, Rishikesh, Haridwar and Dehradun. I have made this explicit initially itself but when the CS executive sent me the itinerary list for the locations that I asked for, she sent very minimal places for every location. Say 2-3 places at max. When I asked for more, it was too many to and fro to make her understand my requirement. Finally, I got frustrated and I came up with the full plan for 8 days and gave her. Her work is just to send this to the backend team to get the quote for it. The amount she quoted was bit high but I did not worry about it much.
I actually wanted to have a good trip for my parents. I believed MakeMyTrip would do it better. When it came to the payment stage, she told me that the driver would drive only from 9am - 6pm and not for the rest of the time even if we had to travel from one city to another. When I asked about this again for clarification, she told me that it is outstation drive, driver can start by 6am also but she is not ready to give a written confirmation for this as their policy does not support this. I believed this to some extent and finally paid initial amount. While doing the payment, I asked her to provide the cab driver who knows English / Tamil as we are going by separate cab and my parents does not know Hindi. She told that we can try for that but cannot assure. Based on this confirmation, I made the payment.
The day came when my parents went for the trip. I called the driver in the contact number shared before they landed. Apparently the driver does not know anything in English. He just know two things in English. 1) Say a place is closed. 2) say yes yes yes for anything that you ask just like Rajnikanth did in one movie. My parents were really tensed to hear this. Just think of it. On the first day of the trip, driver saying that all the places in day1 are closed. I then had to speak to the travels (to whom MakeMyTrip has vended this out) and the MakeMyTrip executive to understand. Actually, 1 out of 4 places in the first day are closed but the driver told all of them are closed. I got help from some of my Hindi speaking friends to talk to the driver and finally made him understand that the places are open & he took my parents for sightseeing.
And thank God, day 2 is booked with Delhi tourism and it was very fair. Again it is day3 and the nuisance started. Day3 -> started from Delhi and travelled to Rishikesh and we had to visit Triveni Ghat in the evening for Ganga Arthi. Driver parked the car in Rishikesh hotel and made my parents believe that they have to walk a little bit to reach the Ghat. Actually, it is 1 km from hotel to Ram Jhulla, more than 0.5 km to cross Ram Jhulla and then get a share auto to reach the Triveni Ghat. They have to do the same process to reach the hotel again after Ganga Arthi. Driver just took rest in hotel and made the vendor believe that he took us for sightseeing Triveni Ghat.
Day 4 -> Morning, first word he told is 2 places closed which is actually open. I had to then talk to the reception guy, get information and then tell him it is open. He then showed some random places generally and tell that this is the sightseeing places. Eg. He showed a small mountain with some water telling that this is NeerGarh waterfall. When my dad asked the locality and then told him that we have to go 1km more, he fought with that guy. He also does not say where he is going to my parents before going. Only when he reaches, they will know. He speaks over phone all time, uses pawn.. etc.. troublesome guy.
I finally reached out to the vendor to change the guy but they are not ready to accept all this, and after so many discussion, they are ready to change the guy on day7 while the complaint was raised on day4. With no other way, I reached out to MakeMyTrip and they were not ready to take up the complaint. They asked me to talk to the vendor. So bad of them. Driver changed only on day 7 as the vendor told. New driver was bit okay with English and the trip was better after that.
Some callouts to people looking for MakeMyTrip. 1. Don't believe in MakeMyTrip. They are fraud people. They just vend out stuff to other company and we believe in their name while booking. 2. I asked for English speaking driver and even if they know if it not possible / less possible, they did not inform me about that earlier. They just got the money and made me struggle. 3. All the hotels that they committed were supposed to 3+ but hotels in Rishikesh & Haridwar were just like a dungeon. 4. Very poor customer support in case of an issue. They took 2 days to resolve an issue when 25% of my trip has completed.
Don't go to MakeMyTrip please guys. I got cheated. I have spent lots of money and the result is just frustration. Even the customer service of vendor is poor. They don't pick your call looking at your number. Really bad. MakeMyTrip does not care for you. They care just for your money. I will never plan for any more trip with them.

This is regarding a taxi ride I booked via MakeMyTrip from Bharatpur to New Delhi Airport. I was visiting India so my friend Ansul **, who has an account with MakeMyTrip, made the booking online through his account. I am deeply distressed to report that it was the most horrible taxi ride of my life and I have lived and traveled extensively in India before. To make the situation even worse, I was traveling with a friend who was visiting India for the very first time and he was distraught & very disturbed with the entire experience and sadly left India with a very bad impression and feeling. Our pick up point was Birder's Inn Guest House in Bharatpur, Rajasthan. As soon as we got in the taxi we conveyed to the driver Vinod ** - ** [Cab No. **] that we needed to withdraw cash from an ATM to pay him and we did not need any specific ATM & any machine will do. He confirmed that he will keep that in mind.
My friend & I, both had been traveling in India for the past 10 days and Bharatpur was the last leg of our journey so we were very exhausted and just wanted to reach the airport safely in time to go back home. The driver had put the AC on at a very low temperature and it was very cold inside the cab. It was conveyed to him & he did turn the AC down. He was also playing music at a disturbingly high volume & we told him that this was making us uncomfortable and he initially did turn it down a little. But, to our dismay, after about 20 minutes, both the AC & the volume of the music was back to what we had started at. It confused us initially but we reminded & requested him again politely to turn both down & he again complied. I speak Hindi so there was clearly no communication problem when it comes to him understanding what we needed. This went on for quite a while.
He was driving extremely rash & honking no-stop & we again politely conveyed to him that we were in no excessive hurry & we would rather prefer that he drives safe but it appeared to us that he had started taking offense at the things we were asking for --- which in our opinion were absolutely VALID and I reasoned with him and told him that he was not on a "long-drive" alone and he was providing a service to us which we were paying for so the least we could expect was a safe ride to the airport with the most basic comforts without getting rattled too much but at this point the driver seemed pissed with us and he shot back absolutely unreasonable retorts such as ---- "Madam aap pehle customer ho jisko music nahi sunna. Yahan to main phir bhi aapki sun raha hoon but agar aap flight mein ja rahe ho to wahan aapki kaun sunega jab flight mein gaane chal rahe honge."
At this point I was absolutely confused and tired of reasoning with him and I again asked him politely that it was just 1.5 hours left till we reached the airport and we would really appreciate if he would just wait till we got off and listened to the music then. After this he kept of stopping by the roadside randomly every 15-20 minutes & sometimes he would just be on his phone on youtube playing music and/or he would just randomly step out of the car without saying anything and upon asking what was going on he stopped replying to us at all.
I cannot explain how disturbing this experience was for me and for my friend. Once we entered Delhi, I again reminded the driver that we needed to stop by at an ATM to withdraw cash but he did not respond. I insisted and repeated my request but again he did not respond and then when we were close to the airport he made a comment stating that I will have to withdraw money at the airport to give to him.
When we reached the airport, there were cop cars around that were not letting the taxi drivers park & they were rushing everyone and this confused me so I again asked the taxi driver about how to withdraw cash and give to him + where was the closest ATM to which he responded ---- " ye meri problem nahi hai, ye tumhari problem hai. Jao dhoond lo khud aur cash le aao."
I was at the verge of total mental chaos at this point and more importantly now I was worried about missing my international flight because of this mess I had somehow landed in. My friend remained seated in the car and I stepped out to look for ATMs. After walking around I found 2 ATMs which were both out of service. By this time, I had already lost another 15 minutes or so in walking around trying to figure out things and I was at the verge of blowing up.
I went back & told the driver that because of his absolutely unacceptable behavior & negligence I was now at the verge of missing my flight. He kept on insisting that I pay him by using Paytm or some other online application and I kept telling him that I do not live in India so I do not have access to such money transfer apps. He was blatantly rude and was not opening the car boot to hand over our bags and I lost another some time there and finally in a state of absolute panic, I had to tell him that if I miss my flight because of him, I will make sure I call the cops on him & explain the harassment that we had been subjected to. He finally released our bags and for us that nightmare finally ended but to our horror he started calling my friend in India who had made the booking for us, incessantly and now he is calling him every hour to ask for payment.
My friend told him that this was absolutely unacceptable but still complied and released a payment of INR1000 but he is calling incessantly and causing more mental turmoil. I had no idea that a reputed name such as "MakeMyTrip" could subject a customer to such excessive mental turmoil. The whole experience has been deeply disturbing for us & is continuing to be so for my friend who is now being subjected to non stop phone calls. I would want the management team of "MakeMyTrip" to look into this issue at the earliest and take appropriate action against such grave misconduct.
It's because of situations like these that we as a country and we as people have a horrendously shameful reputation in the International scene. It is because of such experiences that westerners think that India is a cesspool of a country and it's dangerous to step foot there. When I sent the complaint to the company they did not give me any proper response and then just sent me an email stating that the issue was resolved. I connected with them on their Facebook page but even there they are very slow to respond & did not provide any proper resolution. Absolutely shameful.

The car booking service of MakeMyTrip is horrible. I booked a car from Agra to Delhi for 26th August 2018. It was mentioned that I will get the driver details and car number two hours prior to my mentioned pick up time. But I didn't received any information, when I called the customer care, I use to talk to the concerned representative after long waiting and then use to wait for another 15 minutes for talking to their senior executives. Every time they told will get back to you in 15 minutes, but never called. After wasting more than 2 hours like this, and calling several times, finally they told no driver is available and I should look for alternate arrangement. I had a flight to catch from Delhi to Mumbai and accordingly I planned my travel. But at the last moment when I had to leave for Delhi they cancelled the ride. I had too much of problem to reach Delhi airport, very narrow escape in missing the flight. My experience with them was horrible!

But MMT assured us that the places where you are travelling (Kochi, Alleppey, Thekkady, Munnar) are safe. Only Munnar is doubtful so they changed our itinerary and made it reverse and assured us that if we could not go to Munnar they will change that location even at last day of Thekkady.
When we reached Thekkady, it was already heavily raining and they call us that Munnar is closed. Our driver suggested us that we should go to Trivandrum and not back to Kochi as situation is not good.

But worst part is they told us that, "Now you have to book your hotels by your own for Alleppey and Kochi, we will give you refund for Munnar hotel," (which they have not done yet). I requested them that we are in this messy situation, you already have our Munnar hotel fund, please book hotels for us. But they were so irresponsible and said that now we are on our own.
Even Kochi airport got closed, we needed to change our flight from Kochi to Coimbatore, for which they asked us that now we have to pay extra to driver (we were still into our trip, still). They were so irresponsible, they always have excuse that they will update us in some time and we had to wait till late night for their call for their confirmation.

This is to notify that MakeMyTrip is a business with low customer cognizance and empathy, worst quality of customer service experience. I had recently booked a family trip to Kerela, India with the booking id - **.

Now in this current situation when I asked MMT to cancel the trip because of the flood & natural calamity around that area, the answer I got from MakeMyTrip - "MMT doesn't not have anything to do with it", if I don't do the complete payment the whole amount of advance will get forfeited, else we can change the holiday dates within a month without any penalty but with the current fare difference etc etc. Just want to notify this so that no one else can get into such bad customer experience, there are better places where you can get the bookings done, and if it has to be at our expense one should plan the trip themselves rather than getting in touch with MMT.

I had booked holiday package with MMT to Gangtok-Lachung-Darjeeling from 2nd June for four members of my family. Upon reaching Gangtok I found that my hotel booking at Gangtok was cancelled by MMT as a result of some miscommunication amongst MMT staff. Myself and family was made to wait at hotel reception for 2 hours. There was no help coming from MMT tour coordinators, despite numerous phone calls to them. It was horrifying experience to my family members that too in an unknown place. In the end I had to take my own initiative to find alternate hotel room during a busy season. Upon my return back I claimed refund for hotel charges and MMT refused to give me the refund for hotel charges.
Every night or next day morning I had to call the tour coordinator to remind him about Driver pick up for tour. Every day of my tour I was provided with new driver. We tourists are left at the mercy of driver. If the driver is good man, then you have good day or if the driver had a bad day at his home then you had it. MMT does not do anything to take care of the tourist. They leave everything to the driver to take care of tourist. This was vouched by all drivers that I had been with during the tour. I had to explain the sightseeing spots of my itinerary to the drivers each day.
In Gangtok the driver was in such a hurry to reach to me to Darjeeling that he skipped couple of sightseeing spots stating that there is too much traffic in that area of visit. Even the MMT staff made such an itinerary that I had to miss out on some sightseeing spots as it was closed on that particular day. Overall it was a very disappointing tour. It was my first experience with MMT and it will be my last tour with MMT. I recommend tourists DO NOT BOOK TOUR WITH MMT EVER.

I booked Ramada Plaza Agra on 2 July through MMT, I had taken a twin bedroom since we had two children with us.

I was relaxed.
Now when I checked in the hotel on 20 July and asked for the extra bed they refused and said that I have to pay 1500/- for it. I called up MMT again and they refused to help. I asked them to trace the call on which I was promised to get the extra bed, after a while they called up and said it's not possible to trace the call. I felt miserable and helpless and finally ended up paying Rs 1500/- for the extra Bed. It was heartbreaking because I felt ditched and betrayed by MMT executive.

I was searching a Sea Breeze Resort in AP. There was a link below the search of MakeMyTrip. After clicking and booking I realised it was the wrong address booked within 10 mins after booking. After calling and MakeMyTrip says it cannot help. My money of 2700 was lost. MakeMyTrip is worst customer care. Will never book with them again. They don't want to rectify the problem and just think of their money.

I booked an international holiday package using my SBI debit card because I was told that I would be eligible for 10% cashback since my booking was above 1 lakh.

After reaching Hannover, we hired a cab for the address mentioned in the Booking Details (PFA 1). While reaching to Gottinger Chaussee, we were just unable to find the "3012" apartment. After an hour we were stupefied and astounded to know that there is NO APARTMENT with 3012!! After pulling ourselves together we decided to go back to railway station and ask someone for help. Over there, the DB Kiosk came to our rescue out of this mind numbing shock to us. They spent some time and finally found the actual name and number of the owner of the apartment. They called the owner and asked for the address and finally got the correct address.
After 2 long hours of hassle we finally got the right contact details. So we hired another cab and eventually got to the apartment. It was a bit relaxing to see a beautiful and resourceful apartment, thanks to the helpful owner. Losses from this nightmarish experience: 2 hours of our valuable time, colossal stress, couldn't work for a minute the whole day and one round trip plus extra driving at Gottinger Chaussee in cab.

WORST CAB SERVICE MAKEMYTRIP (we booked round trip Delhi to Manali). MakeMyTrip arranges cab services from different VENDORS, and doesn't has its own cab services. We booked a cab for 8 days, round trip from Delhi to Manali. The TERMS AND CONDITIONS, are not conveyed properly to the vendors. There are extra night charges of rs.250/night, if we use the cab POST 9 PM TO 6 AM, but the driver asked for all 8 nights charge, even when he was sleeping and not driving. MakeMyTrip FOOLS YOU, they gave us a package of 2000 km in rs.17064, rs8.5/km, I confirmed with MR. ** (one of the employ in MakeMyTrip cab customer care) if we could go from Delhi to Manali to Kasol and then back to Delhi, he said he has confirmed from the vendor AHA TAXIS, and yes we can go to Kasol. But when time came, the driver refused to go Kasol saying the cab is booked from Delhi to Manali and he will not go outside Manali.
Now it is common sense that why would a tourist book 2000 km for only Manali? How can one cover 2000 km only in Manali? I contacted MR. ** (another employ in MMT cab customer care). He took way too long to resolve our issue. Prebooking MMT said we can go outside Manali, post booking they refused. The driver we were provided was by AHA TAXI VENDOR, his name is ALOK ** or HARIOM , he had 2 names, we don't know which name is real, vehicle was SWIFT DZIRE **, this driver was inexperienced for Himachal roads, he didn't knew how to control his own vehicle, he couldn't pick up the vehicle in 1st gear on hilly area as well as on plain road, he was MENTALLY ILL, he HARASSED ME, I went with my brothers who were there to protect me, he once THREW ME IN A GUTTER while I was getting out of the cab. He didn't stopped the cab and continued driving, he drove over my brother's foot TWICE.
He HARASSED us, we were all students and he SCARED US by driving in an inappropriate way to scare us. The driver was ill spoken and mentally unfit to be a driver. The driver was not thorough of terms and condition. Neither was the vendor, MMT is at fault and it caused us way lot of trouble. MMT sends UNAUTHORIZED DRIVERS. MMT customer services are worst, each employ will give you different details, they themselves are not clear about terms and conditions. Once you pay advance 15% to MakeMyTrip their role is done, they don't pay attention to you thereafter.

Booked a flight for Dubai, MMT was running an offer of 1500 cashback on HDFC Credit card if the booking is made on a Thursday using code HDFCINT. I did the same, booking was for 14500 INR and expected cashback was 1500. Tickets were available @13500 on the official website but to save 500 INR I chose to book through MMT and that was my mistake to fall into their lure and cheat trap. After no cashback was credited, I mailed their customer care and they sent me a screenshot saying no code was applied from my end! The worse part is there is no proof to actually make my claim as they didn't mention anything about HDFCINT code in any of the bookings mail they generated, only proof was to take a screenshot of the booking page and who does that? We trust the company. Now I am paying 14500 INR for a ticket which would have otherwise cost me 13500 if I booked through official website.
Their customer service is even worse than the fraud they are doing, representatives are more interested in closing the tickets than understanding the problem. Why would I book by paying 14500 on their website on a Thursday using a HDFC credit card (I primarily use AMEX for all bookings) and not use the code? I am sure there are more cases like this where they claim it's your fault that you forgot to apply the code (I CLEARLY APPLIED THE CODE) and cash on your human aspect.
Advice to all, best to book tickets from official website or other channels. If MMT is offering a deal that is too good to resist and you wish to try your luck, then make sure to have all the screenshots handy and not rely on their mails. In this case I am assuming they'll oblige if you have the required trails to prove you are correct and given the nature of their scamming strategy you could be in for even more surprises. Reading about all the scams I am confused should I celebrate that I manage to wake up with only 1500 loss or be resentful at clear lack of professionalism and daylight robbery by MMT. I have learnt my lesson, I wish my post shall enable others to learn from my mistake and save their money from falling into these fraudsters hands.

We did not received any confirmation or booking ID either by email or by SMS but the amount of rupees 8139.00 has been debited from my bank.

After 3 business working days, I called makemytrip again asking about the refund amount. Agent told me to send the bank statement. I forwarded the bank statement. On my next call I has a chat with agent and she said that the refund amount got struck at payment gateway and told me to please contact my bank.
I contacted my bank and they said nothing was received in to my account from Makemytrip. On my next call Agent told me that the refund amount did not processed as the booking ID was not generated. She said she will generate the booking ID and then process the refund amount within 72 hours. By this time this is 14th day since I have not received amount. Today I received a call from agent and he was saying that makemytrip sent me confirmation and booking ID through email and SMS. I told agent that I did not received any SMS or Email. He was insisting that the system has sent the booking ID. Honestly if the booking has been confirmed and the booking ID is generated, why would we do not fly?
I has confirmation from the first agent that the booking has been failed that the amount will be credited back in to my bank account. Now this agent is saying that email and SMS has been sent.

Visa protection plan is going on and this plan is especially for Europe package... when I told them about this they refused it and said, "It is not applicable on your package." For their confirmation I inquired about this and their executive said yes visa protection is there on the package I have taken... for which I have a recording (proof). I went to their office where Mr. Maninder **, pre sales head said “mera product hai jo mera man krega vo mai dunga”... I have a recording (proof) he is least bothered about the customer problem.
I have the recording of the executive who is clearly saying there is visa protection plan on Europe package. And moreover Chetanya said about the refund but Mr. Dinesh ** said, "We have not found any recording of Chetanya..." as they know they are wrong. So they are giving false excuses. Guys those who are thinking to buy any package from MMT please don’t buy that, they are just fooling people by earning in wrong way. Dear MakeMyTrip I want my refund anyhow. I have all the recordings of your employee who is admitting about the visa protection plan. And if you need that I can post that on your Facebook wall.
And one more thing I want to add that when we told them that your employee said that there is a visa protection plan, then Mr. Dinesh ** said “agar usne aisa bola h to hum use company se nikal denge.” It means, "The person who is giving right information is wrong from you and the person who is cheating the customer is right." I have also some more recordings of your employees who all are admitting that there is a visa protection plan. I guess the head of the MakeMyTrip know about this problem because Dinesh ** said to me that he will talk to the higher authority... and it's almost two week he said, "We can't refund you." They are useless. They are not capable of providing with your visa as visa department doesn't have adequate knowledge about the documents required. Different visa person will assist you with different documents for the same destination.
MakeMyTrip your employee will let you down one day for sure. Guys please don't fall in trap with online packages of MakeMyTrip. All my visa documents are good enough for getting visa but they are saying that embassy gave unnecessary reason. He also added embassy to shakal dekh kr b reject kr deti h... all the 4 application got rejected. Visa was applied on different dates by different couples. Still got rejected. MMT fraud and cheater.

I booked a holiday package to Singapore and Malaysia through MakeMyTrip and paid an initial amount of Rs 42000. I could not travel as my wife fell ill and doctor advised not to make any travels. MakeMyTrip gave me 2 options. One submit medical documents related to illness and medical certificate and they will give maximum refund. Second one was reschedule the travel in which case the date change penalty would need to be bourne by us. Since I was unsure of my wife's health progress, I decided to cancel the booking and submitted all the documents as requested from MakeMyTrip.
For 2 months they didn't even look at the reports and just kept prolonging the case. Once I started making serious follow ups, the management looked into the matter and within 2 days they responded saying no refund is possible as cancellation was done 14 days prior to the trip. They are saying 64K is the cancellation cost and 22k cancellation charges has been paid by MakeMyTrip to the airline and hotel people. Is it really believable? They already have seats and rooms blocked in the name of MakeMyTrip and if a person A doesn't show up, they make up for it by allocating it to another person B. MakeMyTrip uses these kind of refund opportunities to make free profit when a big amount is involved. I have now given away 42K to MakeMyTrip for nothing. I used to be a loyal customer to MakeMyTrip but I am never going back there again as I have now realized... THEY ARE CHEATERS!!!

"PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THIS ORGANIZATION." They are nothing but scammer and blackmailer. Once you pay for the trips, you are on your own. Here is excerpt from an e-mail sent to them by our leader who had booked our tour: "I had been interacting with your staff at various levels. Ms. ** was very helpful courteous but she was helpless as your functioning is like 'RIGHT HAND DOES NOT KNOW WHAT LEFT IS DOING'. I am constrained to mention that having booked a tour with your coy was the blunder, as your office has very poor understanding with Airlines which booked our flights through you."
It is unfair trade practice of Indigo to charge a heavy penalty of exorbitant 13500/ for adding SURNAME five letters, from a confirmed fully paid USA citizen. This clearly gives impression of fleecing customers having made full payment & who book as a group. This unfair practice of cancelling ticket of one member of group then rebooking her charging double the fare is simply blackmailing as all members have to move together & cancelling the tour after having made full payment would have attracted very hefty penalty. Anyway thanks for this bitter experience. NEVER AGAIN, and I will make sure that this organization is exposed likewise in the United States of America.

I had a bitter experience with MMT cab service during my recent vacation. For a 3 hr one way trip I was delayed by 2 hrs and had to make several calls to several people, MMT, driver and vendor to get my issues resolved. There was initially a confusion on the pickup location in my booking, this was brought to notice of MMT well ahead of time but that was never communicated to the vendor by MMT. The vendor then took me for a ride giving all sorts of excuses and finally arranging a cab 1.5hrs late.
Even after the trip started, MMT did not provide the OTP, I was further delayed with the driver halting the cab on the highway and making me pay the toll charges. It took another 1/2hr to receive the OTP from MMT resulting in 2 hr delay in my trip. Based on this experience I took Ola cabs for my subsequent trip during the vacation and I could clearly see the difference in service. There were no surprises be it in cab booking, tracking and trip mileage and prices.

Here is complete feedback regarding the above booking. First of all there were few hitches at the time of booking itself regarding communication issues, so we just went ahead as is to save time and energy. Though scanned copies of Passports were made available as soon as booking was confirmed thru first payment, the validity of one passport was communicated after 5-6 days of sending it when docs were forwarded to visa dept. This caused last minute panic for renewing passport and lot of tension, stress and extra costs coordinating between 3 cities to get it renewed on urgent basis and this had financial implications too. Again we were lucky to get visas just 3 days before travel adding to our stress as the booking was under 100% cancellation charges clause, it being just a week before travel date.
On the last day when we got a briefing call from MMT we were told all vouchers and etickets had been sent by email. On checking, I immediately communicated back by email that no attachment had been received. I was resent the attachment and strangely the internal domestic flight from Shanghai to Xian had just names of 6 pax and no eticket no or PNR no. When I expressed my concern I was told not to worry as the concerned team in China had been communicated and all was in order. In case of any issues, we were told there was an emergency contact no. on the vouchers forwarded.
Shanghai tour lot of time was unnecessarily wasted in lunches that could have been avoided. On 3rd day, 6 of us were isolated from the group and sent separately to another airport and as suspected, the flight from Shanghai to Xian wasn't booked for any of us and it totally spoilt our holiday mood. No one responded immediately and it was after an hour or so that Dora, the corresponding agent in Beijing made some efforts to book us on the next flight. We could have easily made it on the same flight if only someone had responded immediately, making us lose precious time. Also the passport no. of the newly renewed passport hadn't been updated from your end causing further delay and confusion at the airport as we had to ask Dora to book again with new passport no. This was despite the scanned copy of new passport sent to all concerned departments thrice from here itself.
In Xian it was a day wasted as we reached last minute and had less than an hour to see the terracotta warriors, the highlight of the tour in Xian and couldn't see it completely. Nor could we visit the museum or the film which was of main interest to us. Also the guide was misinformed regarding the Fountain show and that also was missed as we reached late. Basically Xian was totally a wasted trip as we weren't able to do anything properly and were just tired walking around without being able to see much.
Beijing trip too lot of time was spent on Lunch, Dinner and shopping stops. At the actual points of interest like the Olympic Stadium Nest and Cube we were rushed and given just 20 minutes to look around while there was no time limit set for the Shopping stops at Pearl & Jade factory. This made most of the group feel cheated as we were there to see as many places of interest as possible. On most flights esp Domestic ones we didn't get any meals as no one had put in Veg meal requests on our file though this had been communicated from the beginning itself.
All in all we felt it has been a stressful experience from booking to completion of trip and we were lucky to have made it to China and back, mostly thanks to our own efforts of making required docs available on time. It has been disappointing and highly unprofessional approach of agents for not responding on time or not providing clarity. Someone obviously didn't take the pains to see if all segments of the trip were booked and appropriate requests put on file nor was the new passport updated on file.

Booked online both Shatabdi and hotel. Hotel in question here is Sumitra. I already paid for my 2 nights/3 day visit prior but when I reached Sumitra Hotel, they adamantly asked for 300 extra. I had to call MakeMyTrip but they passed the buck on call even before 2 days after booking I spoke to MMT about extra person and they said they only need Primary information and not the extra person. Anyways, paid 300 bucks upfront at hotel for flaw in MakeMyTrip operations and mind you this is entirely unethical as whether it was 300 or 3000 they should inform or state on their website.
My hotel ordeal didn’t last there, when I checked out on 17th at 12 noon, they again asked for 300 bucks extra. Hotel manager/owner who is a Sardar (can’t recall his name) and no pun intended – said, "We told you 300 extra “per night”"when in reality he said only 300 extra at time of check-in – smartass. All in all, I strongly condemn MakeMyTrip and Hotel Sumitra for their unethical, absurd and unprofessional tactics of phishing customers.
I also appeal to the brand ambassadors who are Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh to kindly take a note of it – I believe you’re morally liable if people are getting ripped off their money by brand you endorse. People of all ages follow and admire you both, but look at the brand you are endorsing.

Booked Kerala package through MMT as this is brand but it's worst brand I ever seen. Don't trust them if they are saying they are providing 3 star hotels for your stay. The hotel I had it's starless. Cheap hotel in cheap area. I have contacted customer service and they said it will take time to resolve. I said okay but no calls. I have called the executive. He never answered my call. When called care the guy who is on call speaks very rudely and saying it's not MMT fault. If you want to change hotel change it by yourselves and make payment for it. Even I didn't get cab details on travel date as well. I called in between of journey to get cab details. Worst service and MMT executive are also very harsh and rude. Don't go with MMT.

I am very much dissatisfied with the services of Makemytrip.com. Since I was supposed to travel from Mumbai to Shirdi by late evening 10:30 pm whereas it was printed 10:30 am morning. I booked sleeper class that is for night only but they have wasted my money. Even, well in advance I requested them to re-schedule the same but denied to do that.
Now my Rs.1200/- wasted and they are not providing any refund for the same. I want my refund and in future will make sure that I will not book any ticket through the portal. Very shameful that they don't provide any option to customers when we come with any query. Please look into this and facilitate to provide my refund without any deduction.

We booked a houseboat in Alleppey, Kerala through this very reputed platform for 29th September, 2017. We were supposed to check in at 12 pm that day, and when we called the houseboat to ask for where it will pick us from, they told us that there was no booking under our name. This happened 2 hours before our check-in and we called MakeMyTrip immediately. They took 10-15 minutes to figure out that due to some technical glitch, we got a booking confirmation from MakeMyTrip but there was no real booking done at the houseboat. When we asked them to help us, they suggested to find us an alternative in the next 15 mins. We didn't even once received a call from them and kept calling for the next 2 hours when everytime a new executive attended us and we had to repeat our whole issue and he would again ask for 15 more mins to find an alternative.
They kept us waiting with all our bags packed, and after 2 hours told us that they cannot arrange for anything and we should just go and book something locally in Kerala. Is that what these websites are running for? To suggest people to roam around in new cities looking for places to live? Now, we could still see 2-3 houseboats on the MakeMyTrip website right in front of us, but the executives kept saying that it's not true and there is no availability in them. So basically this website shows you hotels which don't have real rooms in them but are just there for show? They kept making up unbelievably dumb stories and never agreed to book an alternative for us which was their responsibility.
Now, they told us that they will refund the amount we paid and the discount that we got on the booking, both to us as a token of apology. Then we received a formal mail from MakeMyTrip which only reflected the booking amount as the refund. I called again and asked where the discount amount is written in the refund. The executive named Chandrima **, then sent me an informal mail from her personal account which mentioned both the booking and discount prices and said that this amount will be refunded. There was no formal receipt or anything which looked very fishy to me in the first place.
We received the booking amount in the next one week and never received the discount amount. And I have called them more than 10 times in the past one month and they keep making a fool of me by giving unprofessional excuses like the executive who was handling your case is on a vacation, or the accounts team is down, or the banking systems have some problem, which is why they haven't refunded the amount for the past one month. There was no problem in refunding the booking amount in a week but they are having third-world problems in refunding the discount.
I will recommend people to never book from a platform as such which doesn't respect its customers and where the officials believe in fooling you, instead of helping you or being apologetic at all about their mistakes. Not a website to be trusted when going to a random new city. Will always prefer Goibibo or Yatra over a website as such which lies about such petty things. I have added images of both the mails. The official mail which I received from MakeMyTrip and then the unofficial mail which I received from the executive and the chat that I had with her thereafter.

26Jul; I booked my ticket to travel on the 12th of Aug from CCU to MEL. 8th Aug; My father passed away. 11th Aug; I tried to change date of travel to 21/22nd of Aug but same segments were not available except for in Business Class and thus I had to cancel and rebook to travel on the 22nd with Thai Airways as the fare difference for business class was beyond my reach. Singapore Airlines provides excellent service which prompted me to use their service again initially. I received my refund notice on 16th and called up your customer service who advised that Rs. 2,825 was received from Singapore airlines and was refunded to my account.
As per standards; for a non-refundable ticket the Base fare is non-refundable but taxes come back as they are not paid by the airlines to the authorities if a person does not fly. For my booking the base fare was Rs. 13,160 and taxes were Rs. 19,226 (Breakdown was confirmed over the phone at the time of cancellation). Thus I should have got a refund amounting to something close to RS. 19,000 after deducting MMT fees/handling charges. Thus I contacted Singapore Airlines and they advised that except for the base fare the remaining amount went back to MakeMyTrip and that she was happy to confirm that over a conference call.
I called you again and spoke to Sudip on Aug 16th; Reference ID: ** informing him of that same. He initially said that MMT only received 2.8K from SA but on cross-checking with SA he confirmed that an amount close to 19K has been received by MMT and that the issue has been passed on to your Accounts team who would process a proper refund. Further to that I receive another email from you saying that the issue is closed and thus I call up and spoke to Debtanu ** on Aug 19th. Reference ID: ** and after going through the same drill as before come to the same conclusion again and a reminder was sent to your Accounts department.
I have spent a lot of time chasing the issue with you, getting conflicting information. If you put yourself in my shoes and consider my situation; it has been a tough time for me and our family and then to deal with this on top of everything is really frustration. My question to you is, why do you not have transparent information about where the money is in your company? Being a customer of the company, why do I have to go through all this and invest so much time to get back my own money? Hopefully I will get a speedy reply and a solution for my concern.

After reading a lot of mixed reviews about Make My Trip, sad to say I went through with my decision to book a cab for a weekend trip... terrible idea: broken down car, awful communication, having to pay for the driver's personal expenses, confusion, and 4 parties involved. The price seemed fine, days prior we received confirmation, the driver's name and number. We called him to confirm the address pickup and everything seemed OK.
Then at 11pm the night before our 6am departure, we got a text from MMT with a different driver and car. We called MMT and they didn't care. The new driver did not answer his phone that evening so we couldn't confirm the address. When he finally answered in the morning, the car was 2 hours late because he was coming outside of Delhi and wasn't aware of the pick up. The driver, as a person, was a very sweet man considering he sacrificed his Diwali to drive us around. I feel he was largely innocent in the many mishaps. Besides being late, the car that showed up was different than the MMT had texted. So our driver was not the owner of the car. In addition to the driver, owner, and MMT, there was Easy Cabs, whom the driver was employed under. The driver had no idea what MMT was.
The day started off weird when he asked us for 1000 rs. for gas. claiming he had no cash and Pay Tm or bank card. After a few hour driving, the entire transmission broke down and took over 5 hours to repair in the blazing sun. That left us 7 HOURS behind schedule. The driver then demanded 8000rs. cash for repairs. He insisted he would pay us back - saying his boss would wire us money even though that would be impossible with international bank accounts like ours. Suddenly the amount dropped down to 5000rs. His boss at Easy Cabs spoke perfect English but suddenly did not answer his phone for the next 3 days... ever.
MMT said they are not liable for ANY breakdowns. They refused to pay or be involved. We ended up paying the driver. He never paid us back, but we just didn't pay for the car on the last day. We had to call someone to translate the Hindi as it was difficult to understand his dialect, and we had to call his personal boss, and the car owner multiple times. MMT refused to be involved and was never of any help. In short, a much to confusing experience, and the fine print says MMT isn't liable for anything... so don't book with them! Better to go with one company and one driver who own that one vehicle. We lost an entire day of vacation sweating on the highway. :(

A gyst on just concluded 'THAILAND TOUR'... There were frequent meetings, discussions, arguments, preparations, etc. which was the scenario when we decided to undertake the "EUROPEAN DREAM TOUR" of six nations, as we had no knowledge of how the Tour Operators "MAKEMYTRIP" people will handle it. After successful implementation of that Tour, our members all sisters, brothers and in-laws of over a quarter century strong were impatient and started lobbying for another budget tour and that was the time when SN BAGHYA ** proposed this tour and Madhuri of MakeMyTrip accepted and Miss **, the new tour manager implemented it. The present tour "The Tour of Thailand" was readily accepted by our members as professionalism and brand equity of MakeMyTrip was well established.
The new Tour Manager, Miss **, a Thai national and a charming lady was no less professional to Mr. ** who conducted the business with Style, while Nadia did it with Smile. Details of Tour. Day 1. The tour started with a visit to a Sriracha Zoo where we were amazed to watch stunning acts of Tiger, Crocodile, and elephants. The daring acts of performers who even inserts his head into crocodile mouth and comes back unscathed. And after the show went to Sunshine Hotel Pattaya. In the evening went for a show ALCAZAR in Pattaya City which has all the allure and razzamatazz of a Las Vegas nightclub. Dazzling performance by artists in glittering evening gowns thrill nightly audiences, as well-groomed ladies mime and dance against a backdrop of surround sound and computerized lighting.The unique feature of Alcazar's entertainment, that sets it aside from Las Vegas, is that all the girls are boys.
Day 2. The next day as per plan everybody got up early and went to 'Coral Islands', where people participated in paradiving, sea walking and other motorsports. Then returned to Hotel and had lunch at a nearby Indian restaurant Veda. Then went to Tiger Park to have snaps with tigers where some of our daring members had Photo Session with live Tigers. Then started to Pattaya Floating Market which is divided into four regions representing North, Northeast, Central and South regions of Thailand where produce of each regions is sold. These shops are built in Thai wooden houses distributed along the canal.
Day 3. The next day got up early checked out of hotel and started towards Bangkok around 100 kms from Pattaya. Safari World is a tourist attraction and consists of two parks named Marine Park and Safari Park operated by Safari World. The Marine Park consists of Dolphin Show, Hollywood Cowboy Stunts, Orangutan Boxing. Of which we could visit Dolphin show only as there were heavy rains. The Safari Park is about 8 km long and takes about 45 minutes and one can spot tigers, zebras, giraffes and varieties of birds and animals. Complimentary lunch was available and after finishing went to Gem Museum on the way to Bangkok where some of us purchased small jewelry studded with gems. Bangkok is a very big city with full of skyscrapers and in the evening traffic we could cover a distance of 15 km to hotel in 3 hours. Went to hotel took rest and had dinner in an Indian restaurant Bavarchi.
Day 4. After getting up a little leisurely checked out and went to visit Temple of Golden Buddha at Wat Traimit, Yaowarat Road at Chinatown which houses the massive Gold Seated Buddha, 16 ft tall and weighing around 5.5 tons of Gold, made by 'Sukhoi Dynasty' during 13th century and is believed to have been cast in India part by part and assembled in Thailand. The structure was housed in a renovated temple by King Rama 1 in 1801 and present venue in 1954. Then we went to visit Indra Market a big marketplace located at Ratchaprarop Road Thanon Phaya Thai, where items of Thai origin from clothes to handicrafts are available and our members bought any and everything till their wallet are emptied, then had lunch and went to Swarnabhoomi Airport Bangkok for our journey back home.
After successful tour of Thailand we still dream the scenic beauty of Thailand, its people, its heritage, its link with Hinduism, its names linking to Hindu Gods Rama, Vishnu, and of course our own Buddha and particularly " THE SAMUDRA MANTHAN" a vast structure located right in the middle of the airport terminal. Overall we have to take such expeditions to rediscover India that is Bharat. We are eagerly waiting for our next exploration as and when it is proposed by ever energetic Bangari and Madhuri. As usual Amar was very helpful to one and all and the newfound photographer Aniketh excelled in photography with his Nikon camera who is likely to exhibit his skills in future tour/tours also. Many of us are also waiting to revisit Thailand again for the marriage of that charming dame Miss **. All the best for all of you in your future endeavor.

The water wasn't running in the toilets. The Shower had dirty brown water coming from it. The breakfast consists of 1 cup of tea or coffee and 1 item from their menu (bread butter jam, toast butter jam or omelet in bread, etc). What a nightmare trying to contact MMT. If it is complaints there isn't anyone available to talk to, but if it was booking and you were going to pay them money then they have thousands of people waiting to answer your call.
Had to use the make a booking call to talk to the rep to complain of the Hotel GRG in Vadodara and eventually was told it is a budget hotel and I shouldn't expect hot water, clean water in the bath, AC could be in any condition but cool, no water in toilets and a Breakfast which consist of any 1 item from their menu and a cup of tea or coffee. I told them they are advertising a hotel as 3 star and I wouldn't even rate the hotel as minus 1 Star. Their answer was I had booked a 3 star budget hotel and shouldn't expect to be treated as a 3 star customer.
I checked out the very next morning with a lot of difficulty from hotel staff and owner And wrote to MMT and they said their concerned department will get in touch within 24 hours. This was 12 days ago. Since then I have escalated the issue 3 times and no one has replied back as yet. The final reply I ** was that one of their Head, Customer Delights Known as Geeta ** will get in touch with me to sort the problem out. I don't think I will even get a chance to talk to her.

After 5 days conversation (every time I called them) I finally feel that they are only doing drama. Nothing else. And for cancel package now I am bearing 35% of total package (which is around 15000 to 16000) and it high for me. Instead good and discounted package I got loss and frustration. Now uninstalling app for self satisfaction. I cannot do anything other. Celebrity like Ranveer and Aliya should not promote fraud company like MMT. #Thiefmytrip #MakeMeTemper.

Booking ID **. I had completed my onward flight and wanted to prepone my return flight, the app showed a refund amount of 42k while the ticket was 58k. I called the agent asked for the charges to prepone, and got a reply saying 28k plus price difference. Then I asked if the amount (42k) reflected in the app is genuine even after flying the onward flight and I was told it was genuine and the same amount will be refunded. I ended the conversation by saying I will go with cancelling through the app. I cancelled my flight on 3rd June.
The refund was supposed to reach my account in 6-7 days which didn't happen. When I called to check the progress I was told the amount was not genuine and I'll get around 13k of refund. I raised the issue to the supervisor (spoken to around 2 or 3 of them) and was told I'll get the amount that was promised after validating the calls. I was told the issue will be resolved in 48hrs which then went to 24 hrs and still goes on with 24 hrs every time I call. It's been 15 days since I cancelled my flight, 12 days since I'm calling for the progress and all I hear is wait for 24 hrs, 24 hrs and another 24 hrs until 18th June. Really horrible service. Fake promises. Totally fed up calling everyday. Frustration is reaching limits. Can someone tell me how many more 24 hrs will I have to wait.
Update: 19th June. The supervisor I spoke to says I won't get any refund and I will owe 2k as the onward fare charges were 61k and the validating team has refused to pay up the amount promised I. e 42k. Now what should I do. Firstly the team is making fake promises. Secondly they are not consistent on the refund amount which changes every now and then. This is MakeMyTrip which can also be termed as FakeMyTrip. Never believe these fakers.

I had made flight & hotel bookings for my Kerala trip in May. I had booked Hotel Camp Noel in Munnar based on the high ratings at MMT and nice pictures of the resort. Unfortunately, it is so much inferior and the roads were JUST TERRIBLE. With the Rains, most of the roads were completely washed out and it was scary traveling through a deserted jungle area. Our Innova Car got stuck up multiple times and hotel person admitted that the access roads to the hotel were not OK and agreed for the cancellation of 2 rooms X 2 room night bookings through MMT (**). With 2 Senior citizen and 2 kids, I had to take a decision to return back after a horrible road journey of close to 12 hours (more than double the expected time).
The phone & internet lines were poor & I tried to contact MMT many times during the day. The experience had been extremely pathetic and the service representatives' competency levels were absolutely poor and unacceptable. THEY HAD NO UNDERSTANDING OF CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. After KEEPING ME ON HOLD several times, I discussed with 3-4 persons and requested that they should book us in another hotel for 1 night in Central Munnar. Unfortunately, their understanding & decision making was so poor, they just ended up with stereotype message "We will discuss with seniors and call you back," which they NEVER DID. Every person requested for SOME TIME to process the refund & today After ALMOST ONE MONTH, I have NOT RECEIVED ANY REFUND NOR ANY CALLS.
Is this the level of service offered by MMT? I must have purchased Lakhs of Rupees of service through MMT for myself, family and Organizations and this has been WORST experience. In general, I must say, MMT service is getting WORSE day by day and I have already switched over to competitor for future bookings. I expect an immediate reply else I need to take up the matter with Consumer forum, so that other travelers do not suffer such horrible experience and spoil their vacation like us.
I urge MMT to immediately refund the hotel booking amount and compensate Rs. 10,000.- per person for spoiling the trip and wasting our valuable vacation time. If MMT management express the slightest doubt and fails to comply with these amounts, I will be compelled to contemplate a stronger action and for sure cause damages to the reputation of MMT and these would be much higher. Please let me have immediate reply on **.

DO NOT BOOK CAB THRU MMT. You get an option of making full payment while booking and if you do that, your driver will not turn up as they have internal issue with payments. I booked the cab today and got 2 sms with different driver details. Both of them denied to come due to payment issue. My pick up is scheduled at 9.00 am tomorrow and right now at 12.26 am, I don't have any driver. Spoke to MMT team, they made call to driver and he confirmed in front of them but called a minute later and asked me to speak to them again as he wouldn't come. I called again and the guy said, "We are sitting and coordinating for you at this hour and driver will come." I asked them to cancel the booking, for which he said, "We will cancel the booking but you won't get any refund... company policy."
Shubham and Ankit are the guys I spoke at MMT. I asked them to give me driver details so that I can speak to the driver and confirm if he is coming or not and I haven't received any details as of now. I am on call with them right now and my call is on hold since last 8 minutes. I asked the guy, "Until what time should I not sleep", he said, "We are coordinating with the team." Which means they have no driver who is ready to come tomorrow. And if at all someone is ready to come, what is the guarantee he is not going to trouble me on the way. Mine is a 5 hour journey and I have no trust on MMT. My mistake that I ignored the reviews. Pathetic is a very small word for this organization.

I was traveling in the month of April from Male to my hometown Delhi by SpiceJet. Due to some technical issue the airline got delayed. Since I had to take another connecting flight from Delhi, so SpiceJet suggested me to take another flight and told me that they will refund the amount within 3 days, which they did before the time frame to the MakeMyTrip. This was done on 13th of April by SpiceJet to MakeMyTrip. It's been over one and half month the MakeMyTrip has not refunded my money back to the account which was used for payment.
MakeMyTrip is just playing with the mails and every day asking me to share the bank statement and expecting me to see the branch personally and follow up with them, which would cost me 800$. Every time someone replies from MakeMyTrip, they just copy and paste the previous mails, don't even bother to check up on the concern. I am sure they are investing the customers money in some other way. I would suggest all my friends and viewers to be away from this fraud travel agent. Their service is pathetic.

Anyway I asked for the change and was told that my connecting flight was rescheduled so that instead of reaching in the afternoon I will now reach late evening at about 9 pm. My onward schedule of the whole group was in a mess so I decided to cancel the entire group booking. Two days later I received a call from MakeMyTrip that the tickets have been cancelled and that I will receive a full refund.
Now it is twenty days past, I have been following up with them about the refund and they say they are chasing the airline. I fail to understand why and how they can hold on to my money like this. They keep telling me, "We are working on it". To my utters surprise now when I go to my account in MakeMyTrip I find that against my journey a refund of INR 134,201 has been initiated. Where is the balance??? No satisfactory answer for this. I am at a loss to understand how they can eat my money like this and still be in business. BEWARE THIS COMPANY IS A FRAUD.

MMT - THE WORST TRAVEL COMPANY. I booked a package thru MMT. My interaction started with their travel specialist in the month of Dec 2016 for a travel date in May 2017. This is the worst experience of my life and would recommend people to avoid MMT for any package. No proper handover. Multiple people interacting & no one is aware of what is happening. Horrible customer service who makes you wait for a minimum 20 mins for any query to be answered. Visa team sucks big time as they collect the document a week before the travel and no proper communication. I had to follow up multiple times on when the visa would be done. MMT is filled with arrogant, poor communication and irresponsible people. I lost close to 1 lakh because of their irresponsible behavior and the worst thing is MMT reps DO NOT want to own up their mistake.
This will not last too long MMT. You have lost one customer and I am sure if you continue to operate like this you will lose many more. People engage with companies like you to ensure they can travel without hassles but this trip has been the worst experience of our lives and sure many people have had similar experiences. I urge people to NOT use MMT if you want to have a good vacation.

Pathetic Customer Service - We had booked a tour package from Hyd-Delhi-Mussoorie-Nainital and this package also included a cab for the entire tour. When we landed in Delhi, this cab was there to pick us up but the cab and its driver were not up to our expectations as it was not clean. We had in fact clearly mentioned in our "Car Service" request that "We are very specific for a clean vehicle and a very clean and professional driver".
From the Delhi Airport we called Make My Trip and they asked me Who my Travel agent was and when I told them who it was they told me that he is not around and a call back would be arranged after an hour. I was taken aback at the lack of concern and the casualness at which my concern was being handled. I told them that I cannot wait for an hour with my kids in the parking lot of an Airport. At which I was told that a call back would be arranged in 30 minutes. So we waited but we never got any call back, so I called back and this some other executive picked up to whom I had to explain the entire issue again to which I was told that a call back will be arranged with the back end team.
From these conversations with Make My Trip I was able to understand that Make My Trip has a "pathetic Customer service" and we decided to proceed with the cab provided to us as we could no longer wait in the extremely hot parking lot as the kids were getting restless. So we informed the driver that we would like him to drive us to Mussoorie and later we will talk to Make My Trip as we were not receiving any reply from them but the driver now was not willing drive us to Mussoorie unless he got a go ahead from his owner/manager for this one way trip. He drove us out of the airport as the his parking charges would increase but he kept stopping by the roadside to wait for the confirmation from his manager/owner and I was trying to reach Make My Trip with no success.
In the meanwhile the driver suggested I talk to the cab coordinator (the go between the cab owner and Make My Trip) and when I spoke to him he also suggested that I talk to Make My Trip and later take a decision but I was not able to get through to Make My Trip and neither did I receive the promised call back from the back end team. In the end the driver spoke to his manager/owner and he said he will not able to drive us to Mussoorie as we might terminate his services after reaching there and he dropped at us at a Mall.
So we decided to make our own arrangements and booked a cab through OLA and proceeded to Mussoorie and it was only at around 2 PM that I was able to get hold of an executive from Make My Trip and I was again told that a call back would be arranged which I only received at around 6 PM. And this executive, if I remember a RAVI something after listening to my concern said that they Make My Trip will not be able to provide a cab of our specifications and he also had the nerve to say that all cab drivers are not clean and if they are clean why would they be drivers and transport vehicles are not clean. He also said that Make My Trip will not be able to provide us the cab as he had cancelled the cab which was provided without Make My Trip's consent and I told him that it was Make My Trip which never called us back.
So he said that he will get back to us and he called us back. He told us that Make My Trip was willing to give us 20000 for the entire cab expenses or will try and provide a cab for the rest of the trip and when I told him that the trip from Delhi to Mussoorie itself costed us 10000 he told that it was not their concern as we had cancelled the cab at our own accord. He literally took advantage of the situation in which we were and told us that Make My Trip will only try to arrange a cab for the rest of trip if I did not ask of reimbursement of the Delhi to Mussoorie trip and kept pushing me (it was a blackmail) to say that I will not ask for the reimbursement and also he wanted to send him a mail to this effect.
I had no other option but to agree and send a mail saying that I will not ask for the reimbursement as I was told that Make My Trip will starting checking if they can provide the cab only after the receipt of the mail. Later he called me and told us that they are not able to provide us the cab for the rest of the trip as there are no cabs available in Delhi. I was surprised that a company like Make My Trip has no vendors in Mussoorie and that executive Ravi ** was also rude. When I wanted to talk to his superiors, he said that they do not talk to customers and it was their instructions that he was following. At the end of the call I told him categorically that I will first need to talk to his manager and it is only later that I will decide on status of the compensation.
I have not received any call from Make My Trip after this and all this happened on the first day of my trip, i.e. the 6th of May 2017. I never expected this sort of customer service from an Organization like Make My Trip which prides itself in being able customize the trips as per the customer requirements were not able to arrange for cab. It was extremely pathetic and disappointing customer service from Make My Trip.

Then I hired an auto to bring my wife to nearest medical shop and get her some medicine and we were waiting at footpath with all luggage in our hand. Finally I borrowed mobile from a stranger and a called Mr Rajan and told him all the issue which we face then he sent a driver to pick us and drop in a hotel to get refresh for an hour. If we do not get that refreshment for an hour my wife might be fainted.

I was trapped in Indonesia and needed a few tickets. Unfortunately I chose Make My Trip (MMT). My traveling companion did not get to go due to Visa issues. The seat next to me was sold on the planes. I requested a refund from MMT via phone. The company is based out of India and their "English" was anything but after several hours on the phone, I became fed up and disconnected. I attempted via email and was able to correspond somewhat.
Make My Trip applied an amazing amount of deductions that brought the original ticket price of $1,300 to a refund of $620. I begrudgingly complied, what else I can do against an international company? MMT agrees to deposit the funds in 3-10 business days. That was almost 3 weeks ago. For the past 4 days they send me multiple emails a day requesting authorization to process my payment of $502!!! Over $100 less than what was originally agreed upon. At this rate I will get $20 next summer.

I am writing this email with great disappointment.. I was fine all through the trip until I came to the Srinagar Airport only to realize that my relatives flight from Srinagar to Delhi was delayed by couple of hours that made them to miss the connecting flight at Delhi.. When I came to know the delay, I called up the customer service and requested them for rebooking the connecting flight since the jet airways told me that the booking was made by MakeMyTrip and the rebooking should be done only by MakeMyTrip. When I called at 9 this morning, Jet Airways said very clearly that all I had to pay is close to 18k for 5 passengers if they had to rebook the tickets for the 8 pm Flight.
I had to call multiple times to Mr. ** and only to hear back from him that he had to wait to hear back from the airlines booking team. BY the time, I heard back from his manager at 12 noon, the cost went up and ended up requesting my relatives to book a fresh tickets from Delhi to Chennai that costed us 50k. Just because, I trusted you guys, I had to pay 50k. If I had done booking myself, I should have used a common sense to have a good break in Delhi knowing that the Jet flies from a different terminal.
I also requested on April 4th to see on why MakeMyTrip booked tickets for my relatives with a very short break. MakeMyTrip folks blindly said that they couldn't get any availability on other flights. It is so funny that my relatives took the SpiceJet flight at Delhi (2:35 pm) which I would suppose MakeMyTrip should have booked at the first instance. Why one would book the connecting flight from Jet when you are flying from Srinagar to Delhi in SpiceJet??? These are the things MakeMyTrip should have considered while making booking for me. I have no idea on why these guys booked at Jet when there is a SpiceJet flight available at 2:35.
Inspite of me calling multiple times from the airport, all I heard from him was just absurd responses. I was expecting MakeMyTrip reps to give me confidence rather they were very arrogant today. This is unacceptable after paying 3.5 lacs for a trip. Actually, me, my wife and my kids are good with flying back to Hyderabad but it was for my in-laws who are aged and their grandchildren who are 4 and 9 years respectively who are stranded at the Srinagar Airport with no clue since all the booking was done through me. I lost complete trust from my in-laws and it was shame for me to leave the young kids stranded in the airport for hours together.
If I had not spoken to you guys, I could have managed talking to the airlines and made the rebooking with less penalty but I trusted you guys and it not only costed me 50k but also I lost trust from my family who insisted me to go through Cox and Kings but I made them to go for MakeMyTrip.

I write this to express my severe dissatisfaction with a recent trip that I took with MakeMyTrip.com to visit Kerala. We booked for a 2-night tour to visit Kerala, arriving in Cochin on 27/12/2016. The trip included pick-up from airport, Cochin sight-seeing, Alleppey Houseboat tour, and Kumarakom. All of the trip was tailor-made by MakeMyTrip according to our interests with a detailed itinerary. But I have to say that the driver went ahead with an itinerary of his own. And this is how the trip went downhill for me.
First of all, it started with him postponing the Cochin sightseeing for a later date, saying that from 17.00 onwards there is nothing to see in the city. We listened to him and let him drop us early at the hotel after which we had the whole evening to ourselves without any plans. The next day he dropped us at the houseboat departure point in Alleppey, which had been booked previously. On the way he took us to some museums, which were not in the itinerary. Thus, making us pay huge amounts of money on things that were not listed in the trip. This too was out of his own free will, perhaps gathering him commissions for bringing in tourists (I was accompanied by my non-Indian husband).
The next day when our houseboat trip was over and he had to pick us up from the location, he was late by almost an hour (his excuse was a flat tyre, which we had reasons to not believe) while we were standing waiting for him for ~1 hour in the heat at 34C. After that we were supposed to go to Kumarakom, which according to him was not a possibility (because Cochin still needed to be visited which he postponed saying the trip would remain unchanged!).
We had an argument with him about this and he then asked us to pay him some more money if we wanted to go to Kumarakom!! At this point, we were really worried that he would charge us no matter what we said. When we insisted that Kumarakom was something we had planned long time back, he tried to convince us that we will miss our plane if we did Kumarakom and Cochin together.
We took our chances and said we will do visit both places. But he still missed a lot of things in the itinerary, and maintained his stern stance of not caring. This was really very very annoying. Later on we visited some places after repeated coercion and still made it on time to the airport to catch our flight. Overall, the trip could have been much nicer without this guy hijacking the itinerary. Additionally as mentioned in the itinerary for the driver, we were supposed to be given water bottles on board which was never provided to us. These are only a few things that came to my notice. There could have been more anomalies on his part in the entire trip which are unknown to us.
I expected the team at MakeMyTrip to take the firm measures to ensure that this kind of nuisance doesn't trouble future travelers who book a trip with them. But they could not resolve the matter even after repeated communication. Later on they furnished false facts where they claimed that there was no fault on the part of the driver. These facts somehow indicate instead that I'm the one presenting false facts. I wouldn't advise anyone in the future to buy tours with MakeMyTrip. I have learnt my lesson.

MMT advertises and encourages full refund for ppl who in advance pay money to them, in case of cancellation because of medical or any other emergencies. But In my case, these guys just paid mere 7.5 k back, and rest money they shamelessly said can't refund. Another strange thing I found is, they don't have any strict policy behind, making booking or making refunds, it just up to the person serving the request.

When I realized that there was an error in the ticket on my email I immediately called the customer service number asking for help. After talking for 50 mins with the agent my call was disconnected at 0005hrs. To my surprise they were disconnecting all my calls from then (about 10 calls). I even tried from other numbers but they were not taking any calls. Finally I had no choice but to call the airline and cancel my ticket as I was travelling the next day.

It's 1600 hrs today and still no mail or call. Just want to warn people that they are only into making money and no service at all. If one has to call the airlines or hotels and sort things out then such companies should not be allowed to exist.

I am a frequent MakeMyTrip customer who until today enjoyed doing business with this agency. This was by far the worst experience I had and am absolutely disgusted with the way they treated me. I had purchased my destination ticket from Jaipur to Lucknow with the airlines, Air India. But I wanted to cancel this purchase since I had found a better offer with Jet Airways. So regarding this matter I first called the MakeMyTrip customer service line. They had told me that I would have to pay a cancellation fee of 340 rupees. What I didn't understand was that why I had to pay a single rupee when it hadn't even been an hour since I purchased my ticket and MakeMyTrip guaranteed a 24 hour free cancellation service.
After arguing and the service being total **, they sent me to talk to Air India to see what they could do. But their service was worse. They said I would have to pay 2400 rupees if I wanted to cancel my ticket. This has gotten me more furious than I already was because it made no sense! I had literally made my ticket a few minutes ago! So what happened to the 24 hour guarantee I was promised? In the end both agencies said they would do nothing about my issue and put no effort whatsoever in satisfying my needs leaving me to write this review. So I just wanted to let ALL of you know that MakeMyTrip is a total scam and does not know how to deal with their customers. Never again will I even bother doing business with them.

MakeMyTrip completely ruined my holidays at Singapore. I booked a package with MakeMyTrip. Just 10 hours before my travel I received a call from an customer service agent of the above company and he informed me that the hotel room which I booked in Singapore was unavailable and I was provided with another hotel and they assured it was a 3 star hotel.
I traveled with my wife and 3 year old daughter. I was shocked to see the hotel when I arrived there and the Asian men who were around there in the hotel were looking at my wife like they have not seen any women in their life. Hope you have guessed the area now. Yes it was Thekka. Very nasty room and we had breakfast and went out. The hotel they initially booked were nearby and I decided to pop in and inquired about the vacancy. The receptionist informed me that the rooms were available. I was very much annoyed after hearing this. Had the travel agent come before me I would have spit on his face and slapped him. This is the way this travel company is operating. So be VERY VERY careful.

Recently booked a trip from Mumbai to Kerala and was dissatisfied with the service. Was told - if I need to make a complaint, I should email and someone would get back to me. Sent few emails now - no one has called.
