unsolisted Promotion
A faudulent charge of $29.95 for Club Spirit Promotion that was unsolisted by myself or wife.
We are in our senior years and do need that type of incentive to travel. we only travel a few times a year for holidays.
We have been unable to talk to a live person , all our efforts to get in touch with Spirit have resulted in recordings that have been unsuccessful. We have also called sears-Mastercard and filled out (2) forms at different times and sent as requested by the company.

Poor child supervision
I trusted spirit airlines to shadow my 11 year old son from florida to laguardia airport in new york. When his father came to pick him up, he was standing by himself at the gate with no escort, he has been there for an hour by himself. No one called and no one was there to verify that the person picking him up was the one on record. Anything could have happened inside the terminal. There are too many predators in this world to leave our children unattended especially when we trust the company to care for them . It is just dangerous.

Forced to forfeit fair due to missed flight!
Spirit airlines was unwilling to offer any sort of accommodation whatsoever for a flight I missed this morning traveling from DCA to FLL. I paid Spirit Airlines roughly $300.00 for a round-trip ticket. When I missed my flight I immediately called to have my itinerary switched, be placed on standby, offered a credit toward a re-booked flight, pretty much anything possible to still get down to FLL without completely forfeiting my entire fare. This is a common courtesy and an acceptable service done by every airline - except Spirit. They seized my entire fair, canceled my return ticket, and told me that if I would like I could rebook this reservation and pay the entire price of the ticket. The next available ticket out of DCA to FLL later today with the same return flight was $400+ dollars, which I was told I would have to pay in full out of my pocket.

It is completely outrageous for an airline to take advantage of a consumer like this. Many mitigating factors can lead to a missed flight and Spirit Airlines should be willing to work with the consumer.

Double billing my credit card
My complaint with Spirit is in connection with a double charge to my credit card which they made and which they claim takes 10-14 business days to reverse. I spoke with my credit card company who told me they have this problem with Spirit ALL the time.

Once the double charge goes on, it takes many calls and pleading to have it reversed. My credit card company says they sometimes will receive a fax from Spirit to have the charges reversed but Spirit claims they don't ever fax anybody. I think it's farly obvious why they hold our money for almost three weeks.

Something needs to be done about this disgraceful "customer servce".

Lost luggage
I went to Las Vagas on June 11, 2007 from Detroit. When I arrived in Las Vegas my luggage was missing. I checked everyday with the baggage area at Macarren airport, nothing. After 45 phone calls to corporate I finally got a form for missing luggage. I sent the form back certified mail and its been over 45 days and I still haven't recieved any information from the airline. I have called corporate another 7 times and have yet to have my phone calls returned. Spirit Airlines owes me over $800. What to do now????

Luggage theft!
My baggage was pilfered and some items taken on a recent flight from San Pedro Sula to Ft. Lauderdale (flight 826 on Sept 24, 2007). There seems to be no way to send this information to Spiritair and I am appalled that I can not lock a bag, but my CD's, shoes, deodorant, pocket knife, electronic devices and other items were stolen after checking my baggage.

Cancelled flight waiting month and a half for refund
Booked 4 tickets from LAX to Detroit for August 3, 2007. Arrived at airport 2 hours before flight to find out flight was canceled. Waited about an hour and was given 2 options... wait 3 days for next flight or get full refund. We opted for refund for this leg of the flight and keep return flight so we wouldn't have to pay so much for no advance notice. We were forced to book on Southwest (what a way better experience) at almost the same amount of money for a one way flight as we paid for R/T, but felt we had no choice. It's now been a month and a half and we are still waiting for refund. Right after our trip we were able to wait on hold for a few hours to get someone in Florida at corporate. Now you are unable to call and are forced to call the reservation number. They tell you they can't answer these questions that its accounting. Someone should retrain them because they now have an added job title. Is there really an accounting dept??? I wish someone would look into suing them. They are making tons of money on just holding on to other peoples money. Every day that they hold onto it is huge! The US should stop outsourcing all of our jobs (Don't people realize that's when "identity theft" became such a problem).

Rip off with luggage and connecting flights
My husband and I took our 1st vacation in 10 years and we decided to go to Las Vegas which was our dream vacation and do to my husbands health conditions we were unable to go on vacation, while on line checking the price of airline tickets they seemed to be the cheapest, so we booked our flight with them in April for our vacation in July, at the time they did not charge for luggage only when we went on to confirm our tickets did we find out that we had to pay for our luggage which was cheaper to do on line so we purchased on line after calling customer service and discussing the fee with them because at the time of purchasing the tickets they did not charge, however they informed us that we had to pay for the luggage if it was not going to be carry on, so we did, credit card was charged 5 times, so at this time I called there toll free number and could never get anyone on the line, so when we arrived at the airport we did crub side check in and they informed us you had to tip them ( which people normally do) I just feel it is wrong for them to demand the tip!! There was even signs up stating this, when we arrived to the counter to check in luggage we explained how are credit card was billed 5 times which they found funny for some reason and when I became irate they said I would need to take it up with customer service and they gave me my tickets, we had a connecting flight in Atlanta and I asked where my tickets were for my connecting flight and at that time they told me we had to go to luggage claims and get our luggage and get our tickets from there to go on to Las Vegas, I argued with them for sometime and got no where and it makes it difficult because of my husbands health condition we had to go thur a special security and this required us to go though everything again, so when we got to Atlanta we got our luggage and stood in line all over again and our 2 hour lay over turned out to us almost missing our connecting flight, we ended back at the same gate we arrived to Atlanta in, most airlines give you your connecting flight. I really believe this is so they can make more money off the luggage. Also after boarding the plane they charge for soda, most airlines it is served free, I will never fly Spirit again and I have told everyone I know about the horrible experience and for them never to fly Spirit and I hope that this letter can help other's from making the same mistake we did.

Thank You

Poor service!
Customer Service was awful from Las Vegas to Detroit, The ticket agent informed us that the counter was closed till six at 3:00p.m. in the afternoon, without trying to see what flight we were on, after regaining his attention he informed us that we were late 90 mins before flight was not acceptable and 3hrs is what's required by them. When we asked him were we could find this information, he simply said try the 1800 number. That sends you through a series of prompting without any results , only to have the service hang up on you after a half and hour. Then he informed us since we made the mistake of being late we could pay an additional 70.00 per person to take another flight sometime the next day, and that we should be thankful that it was only half and not full price, and that this was policy.

Poor service!
Spirit airlines thinks it's ok to use charge cards to buy drinks and food. what they don't understand is that both roller counters are blocking the isles for almost the complete trip. I had to beg to get the bathroom and that was after an hour. I won't mention here how many babies were crying with dirty diapers. The air was horrific. HOW DARE YOU...

AND

U have to be superman to figure out the $9 club that is so much trouble that it's not worth it, but well worth it to Spirit who collected $9 each not telling us that it was for less than one year. READ THE SMALL PRINT.
