USFarekingdom.com is a scam company that… Farekingdom.com is a scam company that will take your money in everyway they can. They posed as United Airlines on both a phone number google search and when called. They booked flights on Delta Airlines because they said they couldn't book the requested flight on United. Thinking they did this as a courtesy, the flight was booked and paid for by credit card. The flight itinerary and confirmation number was emailed and looked legitimate but the language regarding terms etc were poorly written. I became suspicious and did research on farekingdom.com and discovered many unhappy customers who said this company is a scammer. I wanted to confirm with Delta Airlines if indeed there was a reservation as represented and found that there was a reservation for some of the correct flights but also for multible flights out of the United States. The transaction was for a round trip from Sacramento California to Portland Maine! I called Farekingdom and asked to cancel this reservation and that I wanted a full refund. I was told "no" and was given numerous reasons why they couldn't refund. Delta Airlines informed me that they received a personal check for $383.40 from Faresbucket LLC? I paid $1232.40 for this ticket reservation! I have disputed the credit card charges and notified the Federal Trade commission, Google, and Facebook. I will file a claim with the better business bureau soon.

USScam! They pretend to be the airline! The good reviews are from the company. This company is a scam. They pretend to be the airline that you are using, in my case United. I called “United” to add an infant to my ticket and they neglected to say half the “add fee” was going straight into their pockets as an agent fee. I call United and they confirmed the add fee was only 300 not 600 as they claimed. I called and they claimed they had no idea what i was talking about and kept me on hold forever. I ended up calling my cc company to dispute their agent fee. Total scam! Call the airline directly!

USWorking on it... I booked my flight through Travelocity. Afterwards, in order to add luggage, I called the name I Googled (mistake) thinking I was talking to United. I was told my seat was 'restricted' and that I needed to upgrade my seat. Against my better judgment, I gave them credit card info over the phone. Now, my credit card is being charged $372! No one there knows why! I have called no less than seven times starting last night at 9PM and continuing through 1:35pm today...no one can help me, (James, Mark Reid, Hilary, Baker, Darren...) and they all keep telling me I will receive a call back. In fact, the last time I dialed the 1-800#, I was told the company was Sky Heli...apparently they changed their name in less than 24 hours?! I called United (the correct #) and they told me these people do NOT work for them. UPDATE: After posting this review the company was much more inclined to return phone calls. I dealt with Jason, who was very helpful in refunding my money and I greatly appreciated his efforts. I think if the company had better customer service it would be 100% easier to do business with them.

CAThese scammers! These scammers!! All these good reviews are fake. Called to pick my seats thinking it was American Airlines, they charged me 70 cad dollars to do so and then I called someone back to confirm my seat change and the guy said I wasn’t suppose to be charged for basic seating. Called about 10 times and kept getting redirected to a person named Seth, then Baker, and Jacob. BRANDON was the person that scammed me for 70 dollars. Called me back on an unknown number telling me that I was suppose to be charged that. Asked for a refund and was hung up on. These people will hang up on you if you question them. I called the real American Airlines and they said I should have not been charged and that there was no note of a charge. So the guy took 70 dollars from me to pocket for himself. And don’t bother calling the number they leave on these comments, will just redirect you a a “Seth” or Brandon who will pretend like nothing’s happened. Karma will get to these people and these people better watch their backs, something bad qullhappen to them for the way they are using people.

CAI was told they were Air Canada… I was told they were Air Canada employees and that Air Canada is having a promo on where if you book using google play cards (sounds super weird to me) there will be a 60% discount on the flights. They were very pushy so I did some research and realized I didn't even call Air Canada! Now they're calling me over and over. Not pleased! If I wanted to book through a 3rd party sight i would have looked into that.
