Refusing to issue full refund

After booking a cancelled flight through Booking.com with GoToGate, I cancelled and only received a refund for 1 of the two tickets. Despite the airline confirming it should be a full refund and multiple conversations with the GoToGate helpline where they agreed and said the rest of the refund was coming I still have not received the c.£1k owed. I've now had to report to the credit card company and GoToGate are fighting this. Very disappointed as I use Booking.com a lot but never for flights again

Reply from Gotogate2026-07-20

Hello customer, We would like to inform you that any change/cancellation can only be processed according to the fare rules of the airline company. As an agency, we act as an intermediary; we are bound by the airline's ticket rules, and we cannot override them. Best Regards, Gotogate.com

My flight from Madrid to Caracas was cancelled due to air space flight warning. The airline returned the fare to Gotogate whom confirmed having it received (via chat, Gotogate status, and emails). After almost a year I am still waiting for my refund Gotogate status still says in progress. Careful, this company is an scam

Customer Support auto-kicks you, impossible to contact

I tried booking a flight, card got charged, website said error. To get my money back I tried contacting customer support, which is very hard without a booking reference (which I didn't receive due to the error). The chatbot they offer answers in Danish by default for some reason. They put me in a waiting line, I got kicked out 3 times due to my session running out. But when you click on "extend session" you also get kicked out. I've spent hours on this already. So it is basically impossible to get into contact with them. Avoid at all costs. Update: It‘s been 72h, the money has not been refunded even though customer support told me they would do. (I have screenshots of the conversation as proof)

Reply from Gotogate2026-07-20

Hello LB, We can see an attempt, but it was not successful, and thus no booking was made. Please check with your bank whether they have blocked the amount, in which case they can release it. Otherwise, if the transaction has been successful and we did receive the amount, they will provide you with a transaction number. You can provide that transaction number to us via the form in the 'Contact' tab on our website, and we will refund the exact amount paid. Best Regards, Gotogate.com

This has been one of the worst…

This has been one of the worst customer-service experiences I have ever had. I paid extra for Gotogate’s Flexible Ticket because my travel plans were uncertain. When I actually needed to use it, Gotogate could not provide a single alternative date anywhere within the two-week period surrounding my holiday. This was not a case of me rejecting inconvenient flights, disliking the departure times or being unwilling to pay a fare difference. There was literally not one alternative date available within the relevant two-week window. The product therefore provided absolutely no usable flexibility when I needed it. With no rebooking option available, I was forced to cancel. Gotogate then charged me a substantial cancellation fee, despite having already taken extra money from me for a product marketed as providing flexibility. I am asking for either that cancellation fee or the Flexible Ticket fee to be refunded. I raised a formal complaint, but my emails have been ignored and nobody has provided a proper update. I later discovered that my original complaint had apparently not even been processed because an automated email required me to reply with a consent statement. That critical instruction was buried inside a lengthy generic message, which also said the complaint could be automatically deleted if I failed to respond. Today’s live chat demonstrated exactly how badly this company handles complaints. I initially asked for confirmation of the refund amount because the approximately £406 figure shown during cancellation had disappeared from the confirmation. The agent first claimed that only the airline could calculate the refund, then eventually found the figure in the system and confirmed that a cancellation refund of £406.38 had been agreed. I then asked for two simple pieces of information: an update on my open complaint and the company’s service-level timeframe for handling it. Instead of answering, the agent repeatedly returned to irrelevant information about the airline refund and the Flexible Ticket terms. When I again asked, in the plainest possible terms, what the SLA policy was, the agent asked me to “clarify” my request. They could not explain the expected complaint-response timeframe, could not tell me meaningfully where or how my complaint would be handled, and provided nothing beyond saying it had supposedly been forwarded to a “dedicated team.” The agent then declared that all available information had been shared, reverted yet again to talking about my refund, and closed the chat while my complaint question remained completely unanswered. I gave Gotogate numerous opportunities to address this properly. Instead, I have been ignored, passed around and spoken to through canned responses. I strongly advise people to avoid this company. EDIT: Thank you for proving my point publicly. My complaint concerns a paid Flexible Ticket that offered not one alternative date within a two-week window, the resulting cancellation fee, ignored emails and a live chat agent ending the conversation without answering basic questions. Yet your support team has responded about the refund timeline instead. The apparent inability of your support team to READ and UNDERSTAND a straightforward complaint is astonishing, and this reply perfectly demonstrates the incompetence that has defined my experience from start to finish.

Hello Jake, We would like to inform you that the refund application was submitted on 16th July. According to the email you received on that day, refund applications are to be authorized by the respective airline before their processing begins on our side. Unfortunately, we are unable to determine or estimate the time in which the airline will be authorizing our refund application, as the mentioned time frame depends on each airline’s current workload; in any case, the estimated time frame of 30 working days needed for the refund to be finalized remains unchanged. Thank you for your patience and understanding in advance. Best Regards, Gotogate.com

Luggage booking online not reliable

Booked and paid online flight to include 20kg luggage to be then informed by email a few days later they were unable to fulfill the baggage request due to a technical error. I then had to contact the airline direct to add the luggage to my trip. Thankfully the airline was able to add the luggage considering the flight was at capacity. The airline customer service said this was a common occurrence.. still waiting for refund...Lesson from this? Read poor reviews first before considering using Go To Gate and then avoid!

Reply from Gotogate2026-07-20

Hello Inge, Please note that the airline services provided on the airline's website, can either be added by the passenger themselves. Alternatively, we can assist with the addition on the passenger's behalf, but naturally, a fee will be charged since we have to provide the service. You are properly informed about this via the terms and conditions on our website that you are asked to read and accept before, during and after purchase. Best Regards, Gotogate.com

Hello scammer

Hello scammer, when will you refund my money? My flight from Jakarta (Indonesia) to Kualanamu (Indonesia) on June 20, 2026 was canceled and you promised to refund my money, but until now you haven't paid it. So, to those of you who are planning to buy through Gotogate, I tell you not to buy from this SCAMMER.!!!

Reply from Gotogate2026-07-20

Hello chandra rumapea, Thank you for your feedback. Please allow us to make a small clarification. The changes in your itinerary are the result of schedule changes performed by the airline company. Due to various reasons, sometimes the airlines are forced to change the departure/arrival time and as an agency, we are in the unhappy position to inform our customers about these changes. When the changes are substantial, the customers may request a full refund, depending on the airline and agency terms. We appreciate your understanding. Best Regards, Gotogate.com

Gotogate is extremely unreliable, misleading and not transparent.

After a almost two weeks and more than 10 times conversation, they finally changed my ticket with one stop with 20 hours waiting time. So I need to reserve also hotel in stop place between two flights. The worse experience I had. I will never book flight from booking.com and Gotogate. They also charged me 211 Euro extra for this. My reference was 40-1029838683 -------- This company is extremely unreliable, misleading and not transparent. I purchased a flexible ticket and needed to change my flight date and time. Despite the flexibility of my ticket, I have been trying for almost two weeks without success. This has been my experience: - During the first week, I was told that there were no available flights on the new dates I requested. However, I found multiple available flights on the airline's official website and shared them with the support team. They acknowledged that those flights were available. - I contacted their customer support more than 10 times via live chat and phone. Every time, I was told that someone would call me back, but they never did. - After nearly a week, I finally received a call. I was asked to pay an additional €200, even though the fare for the new flight was significantly lower than the price I had originally paid. The call was then disconnected, and once again, no one called me back. - In our last live chat conversation, the support agent asked me to provide the lowest available fare for every flight on the airline's website for that day. After I did so, I was again promised a callback, which never happened. - It has now been almost two weeks, and I still have not been able to change my flight. Overall, this has been an extremely frustrating experience. A flexible ticket is supposed to make changing flights straightforward, but instead I have faced repeated delays, poor communication, and unfulfilled promises from the support team.

Absolutely terrible experience.

Absolutely terrible experience. I booked a multicity flight with them, they gave me a booking reference that didn't exist. So I was unable to manage my flights for Check-in, baggage purchase, seat selection or anything else. Myself and my girlfriend ended up sitting in different sections and had to buy extra luggage at the airport prices. The Gotogate customer service was useless and didn't provide any support.

Total runaround for flight changes. Do not use this agency!

I booked a flight through Booking.com, which was fulfilled by Gotogate. I paid extra for a "Flexible Ticket" to ensure I could change my flight dates easily if needed. ​When I actually needed to change my flight, the online system gave an error. I called their support twice and spoke with agents, only to be told their system had an "error" and they couldn't give me price options or process the change on the phone. My flight departs in less than a week, and they told me I would have to wait 3 to 5 business days for an email! ​When I sent an email, I got a completely ridiculous automated message claiming they "do not handle date or time changes by email." This is a complete trap. They charge you extra for a "Flexible Ticket," and then make it impossible to actually change your flights while ticket prices rise. Save your money and book directly with the airline. (Case Reference: 6971562)

Hello Hazal Goksu, We are sorry to hear about your frustration with the delay in receiving a reply. Currently, we are facing an increased amount of requests, and this means that all the other requests will be processed according to their urgency and always after the requests of the customers departing within the next 48 hours are processed. Your request has been escalated and our agents will come back to you with possible priority. Thank you for your understanding. Best Regards, Gotogate.com

Avoid Gotogate — an appalling refund process

I paid through PayPal Credit for my booking. After the flight was cancelled, I was repeatedly assured that the refund would be returned to the original payment method once Gotogate received it from the airline. Instead, Gotogate repeatedly asked me for an IBAN and SWIFT code, despite the fact that PayPal Credit has neither and the refund should simply have been returned to the original transaction. After weeks of contradictory information, pointless correspondence and repeated attempts to explain the same basic facts, their final response was effectively that they could not refund me and that I should stop contacting them. The entire process has been opaque, obstructive and astonishingly unprofessional. Gotogate appears happy to take payment immediately, but when a refund is due, the customer is passed between departments, given conflicting explanations and ultimately dismissed without resolution. I would never book through Gotogate again. Pay the airline directly and avoid this unnecessary middleman.

Reply from Gotogate2026-07-20

Hello Ms Giia Weigel, Please be advised that, as you canceled your booking, the airline has issued the refund in the form of a travel credit. Once the credit has been processed, it can be converted into a cash refund via bank transfer only. Thank you for your understanding. Best Regards, Gotogate.com
