Got to be the worst company ever. They tried to charge me backdated bills, which were not only totally incorrect but turned out to be illegal. The Ombudsman intervened and I was awarded £500 and an apology. Emails received are totally nonsensical and contradictory. Telephone staff seem confused and unhelpful. Even if a resolution is reached, I then receive a contradictory email. Total experience is a nightmare.

Good afternoon,
Thank you for your feedback
I'm really sorry to hear you've not had a positive experience with us recently in terms of your billing and customer service interactions- this is not the standard we aim to provide our customers.
It sounds like you managed to resolve the complaint via the ombusdman as they awarded you a resolution offer/ compensation? However if you still need support, please pop me over some more details and I'll do my best to help
I saw Tom in Liverpool City Centre and he explained the benefits of switching to Octopus. He was very friendly and informed. So far Octopus have been responsive and helpful and my monthly direct debit is less.
Went on Prague to Budapest trip last October 2024. 1 of the things I wanted to see was closed for repairs If this was unforseen then it's acceptable. If the company knew in advance then they should have told me. 2 of the other trips were unavailable as they "were out of season". The company would have known about this in advance but advertised these as available. My first 2 emails to Explore stating that I was very disappointed and wouldn't have booked the holiday if I'd known that 3 trips would be cancelled were ignored. Eventually I received £50 in compensation. A paltry amount compared to a whole holiday bring spoilt. Explore have now removed the trips from the itinerary on the basis that the information was misleading but that's no help to me.

Thank you for sharing your feedback on your Budapest to Prague Adventure. We appreciate you taking the time to provide your thoughts, and we’re sorry to hear that you were left feeling disappointed.
As you know from our previous conversations in January, we conducted a thorough investigation into your concerns, liaising closely with both our Product Manager and Local Partner. We identified areas where our trip notes needed to be clearer, particularly regarding the seasonality of certain experiences. We have reviewed and updated these notes to ensure they provide more detailed and transparent information for future travellers.
Regarding the boat trip, we understand your disappointment. Due to the season, there is only one departure per day, but taking this option would mean missing the guided tour of Vienna. While an alternative route back to Bratislava is available, it does not offer the same boat experience and was not presented as an option. Moving forward, we will include this information in our trip notes so customers can make informed decisions if they wish to arrange this privately.
Additionally, while our trip notes do not specify entry into Château Lednice, we regret that the itinerary was adjusted due to it being fully booked and that this was not effectively communicated.
Once again, we are sorry for any disappointment this caused during your trip, and we truly appreciate your time in sharing your experience.
Ordered a pulse watch which arrived on time. It doesn't work and screen remains totally blank. Emailed for help and no reply. Rang for help and told to contact technical help who weren't available. Disappointing

Dissatisfied I made a formal complaint to Housesimple on 3 March and haven't had any reply at all since then. I rang them yesterday 23 April and they person I spoke to couldn't find any record of the complaint. She ignored 2 requests for her to give me her name and abruptly ended the conversation and hung up whilst I was again asking for her name. I'm not too happy about this attitude.

Good Afternoon,
I can assure you that customer service is really important to us and I apologise this has been your experience, I'm going to ask a Manager to get in touch with you as I'm keen to get this rectified for you as quickly as possible.
I've just removed my property from their listings. Initially they overvalued my property which didn't help with viewings. I was promised a weekly call from my agent to see how things were going and this hardly ever happened. Phone lines busy, request a call back and it doesn't happen. I paid nearly £400 for a so called premier service. However looking at their website, all the extras I paid for should have been included in the free package. Now they won't give me my money back. I'm making s formal complaint.

Good Afternoon,
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on the service you've received, I'm sorry to hear that it has not been the best experience. I'm going to ask a Manager to call you to discuss this further.
Overall very good. Bought a rabbit some while ago and after a few months the thrusting motion stopped working. However this has happened with other sites and at least love honey will replace for free. Just bought some nipple clamps. Royal mail managed to lose them in the system....When I told love honey they immediately sent more by next day delivery. I think this was excellent service. They are streets ahead of other similar companies.
I bought a rampant rabbit and a vibrating love egg about 6 months ago. The egg never worked at all. The rabbit lost the thrust function after a few weeks and the whole thing thing stopped working at all after a few months. Recently i bought a more sophisticated rabbit and it didn't work at all. Not too happy with this company.
