Scamming, lying, no refund giving, screens his calls, Rip Off artist

Traveling & Tourism

I went to a travel agent, expecting to avoid airline hassles and problems, (plus I wanted to pay in cash to avoid problems with authorizations and such, a whole other story)

I found this guy on the yellow pages and went to him cause he was the only place open. On Sat 4/11/04 I sat in his office and watched him make some reservations on-line, after which he asked me for payment, told me he didn't take cash because he didn't print tickets in his office.

My flight was intended to be on 4/24, well i gave him the money, drove his wife to the bank to deposit it, and she would use her cc to purchase ticket. Well after all that I walked out with a receipt that stated I had given him money but no confirmation for a flight. That was my first mistake.

From that point on it just went downhill. This guy never issued tickets for my flight, although he sent me confirmation on a e-mail, but when I called the airlines, there was of course a problem. This guys procrastination was unreal. All he had to do was call the airlines to get e-tickets issued.

He never did, so 2 days before my flight, and many agravating waiting periods with all the parties involved, i found out that this "business owner" had never followed up on his promise. The airlines wanted me to purchase another ticket for $759 dollars (I payed $220)... YEAH, ok.

Now I am battling him to get my money back, and this lying sack of pooh, won't even answer his phone when I call. So please beware. I have gotten many promises, but after missing my flight and all the inconvinience this has caused me the original airport trip to get the tickets, doesn't sound so bad. I tried to avoid problems and I got into deeper sh* than I could have imagined.
