I am having another bad-bitter experience with eDreams. After doing my booking (from Frankfurt to Prishtina) I received a confirmation (email) of reservation but no e-ticket was sent. Next day I got another email from e person Xavier Ramirez and I was advised to send a copy of my passport and a copy of my credit card so as to do more check. I told him that I will not give him copy neither or my passport or credit card and they should inform whether they want to cancel the flight or confirm it since I already did many booking with the same credit card. I tried to reach the phone number he gave in the email and they are invalid. I am not aware of any respectable-serious company who would ask for such confidential-personal information to be faxed or emailed. For me This is robbery attempt.
I am really furious why such crock-company should exist and urge everyone not to books with this company. I would like that this company no longer exists or close down.

Yesterday, I booked an air ticket with "edreams.fr" which cost around
800 Euros. Just after the payment I was notified that they have taken 1600 Euros from my bank account!!! The first 800 Euros is for the price of the ticket and the other 800 is to be returned within a month. It is amazing that this dishonest fraudulent practice is not illegal. Even if they return the money as they promise, it creates too much unnecessary stress, inconvenience, and problems for thousands of people.

AVOID edreams before you start dreaming about your own money!

I am not inclined to use edreams again because it seems impossible to actually book a flight.

Malafide practices:

1. asking me to send them a copy of my visacard (back and front) = unorthodox and unsafe practice
2. ignoring my emails for several days when I ask them to confirm if they have received my fax with copies of my visacard
3. then sending me a Spanish!! email telling me that the price has gone up and that I will need to pay 135 euros more.

After this lengthy and unpleasant process I have mailed edreams to just cancel everything. I hope edreams will now reimburse the money they have put on hold on my visa account.

I would advise edreams to drastically change their business process. I will tell friends and family about my experiences with edreams and advise them not to use edreams: save time and money and just book somewhere else.

I have just spent the whole afternoon trying to book a return flight to mancester, uk from paris, without getting anywhere.If the flight one is booking is not available, why ask for all those details about the passenger(s), including credit card details.Having just read some of the other complaints, I am not sure at all about whether I have paid for something I am not ever going to have or not.I think its name ought to be changed to enightmares .

****SCAM e-Dreams****
Having just experienced awful services from eDreams I wish I had read this forum first. Reading through the posts of all the people complaining against them after being scammed by so called eDreames (or as someone said e-Nightmares) I simply cannot understand that they are still “lawfully” trading after scamming so many people for several years. How is it “allowed and possible” to scam people repeatedly for such a long period!? At least they could be honest and explain their policy before you make any purchase and not make demands after you press “purchase” button.
They advertise one price and just when you are about to pay for your ticket, as by magic, price suddenly changes, revealing hidden, higher, charges that were not mentioned before. After stupidly giving them passport number and the full details of my visa card nightmares have started.
Once you click on “purchase” your ticket, you expect at least to receive it by email, and not receive an email where eDreams demands from you to fax them copy of your passport, copy of both sides of your credit card (including side with your signature) in order to get your ticket. Why not birth certificate as well? If it is their policy they could at least explain before you purchase your ticket and not demand your identity details as your passport, signature, copy of both sides of your credit card, after you press purchase button.
The next thing you get an email from them telling you that there were problems during payment process.

Important!
We are currently checking a problem we have detected with your bank card during the payment process. As soon as we have verified that everything is correct we will send you a ticket as indicated in the section “Following steps.” If it is not possible to complete the payment with the credit card provided we will contact you by e-mail to inform you of how your ticket can be issued.

If we do not encounter any problems during the payment process, the ticket for this booking will be issued in the form of an electronic ticket (e-ticket). The confirmation of the e-ticket will be sent as a second e-mail to the e-mail address specified below. You will not be sent any paper documentation.

Second email that they send you is demand that you fax them copy of your passport, both sides of your credit card, your signature and it seems from peoples’ experience and the posts in the forum, no one guarantees that you will ever receive your money back if you do not accept to disclose all your personal details to someone you do not even know.
I was unfortunate to come across the company and would never purchase anything from them again. If you want to sleep well and not have nightmares “AVOID eDreams at any cost!!!
