Ibibo Group / Goibibo — Lost 40,000/- due to their bad customer services

I’ve booked Kerala Tickets from Chandigarh. My departure flight is Indigo and my Return Flight is Vistara. This option is suggested to me by Goibibo platform itself. Due to Covid; Indigo canceled their flights for my departure and gave a refund for the same. But Goibibo charged double the convenience fees for the same. Vistara didn’t cancel the flights so I see no option than to postpone by flights. Vistara gave me the option to keep my ticket OPEN till 30th Sept. I’ve opted for that plan with the thought to utilize my money that time. Covid cases kept on increasing in Kerala and most of the states in Kerala are under lockdown. I requested Vistara and Goibibo multiple times to either increase time for OPEN ticket or at least give me a refund. Airlines refused for refund and Goibibo refused to help on this matter. I see no other option than to apply for any possbible tax refunds on the flights. I have requested the same in Vistara and they processed the refund of approx. Rs. 590 per passenger. Today I got call from Goibibio and they said they will have cancellation charges of approx Rs. 550 per passenger so any refund won’t be possible. I suffered loss of approx Rs. 40, 000 in this entire booking and Goibibio didn’t cooperate in this whole matter. Their support team is pathetic and I told them to at least find some resolution for the same but they are good for nothing. I won’t recommend anyone to opt Goibibo as their travel partner and won’t even recommend to opt Vistara for any flight bookings. I’m pretty sure lot of people had similar experiences so feel free to share their experiences aswel.
