Most rudest customer care

I often purchased items on pigsback and even bought vouchers for my older daughters for christmas 2023 as i thought it gives a lot of categories which they can spend the vouchers on.
My daughter tried to use her voucher this week and it seem to have changed to hotels only. I emailed pigsback as there was no email informing of the change and if I wanted a hotel voucher i would have purchased that.
I NEVER dealt with anyone as ignorant and rude as Markus from pigsback. He told me that email was send mid april of the change to all account holders ( on board.ie you can see that this is not true as there is a discussion about this ) and ' there was enough time to use the voucher to make a purchase after it was giftet in December 2023' 'As mentioned before the voucher can not be refunded'
the voucher is valid until 2028... so we didnt think there was any rush to use it.

First class customer service

Pigsback customer service is excellent. I made a hotel booking before Christmas for March which unfortunately I needed to cancel. I emailed and explained my situation and Courtney came back to me within a couple of hours with the offer of a full refund. A very pleasant surprise I would definitely use them again.

I have been dealing with pigsback for several years now & I have to say they are one of the most helpful companies, always there to help & advise & ready to sort out any issues. They take responsibility for their business so I cannot recommend higher. I have to mention Courtney, she works in customer support, keep up the good work 👏

Excellent Support Experience

I recently had to make a late cancellation of a hotel booking due to myself and my wife contracting Coronavirus. Empathy Marketing Ltd., comprising Pigsback & SecretEscapes resolved the issue without delay making arrangements for a full refund of the money I had paid. The company represented by Courtney was a pleasure to interact with. Thank you.
🙏. I heartily recommend and unreservedly the company.

Refund request

We had a difficulty requiring us to cancel our hotel reservation. Empathy was shown to us, very promptly, accommodating a refund or transfer of booking without any problem. The difficulty was overcome, we renewed the booking, but the manner in which we were treated was professional and encouraging to use the service again.
