john luke Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 I saw this as a Facebook Advertisement. I did not click any links as my suspicions were aroused. That said it may be genuine. Why would airlines which to go through a third party company in order to issue refunds? Do they take a commission? Any observations, gents.
Nightcrawler Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 It could well be a scam whereby they get your bank and personal details pretending that they will pay the refund. They don't appear to be listed as a company
Sherlock Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 I'm guessing that these guys are just middle-men, and will do all the hard work for you to get your money back, for a "small" commission of course! (Probably 50% of any money received from the airline) 1
Bazle Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 Looks weird! This is the Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/All-Airlines-Refund-Center-114150483556955/ It gives no information, except for a telephone number. Googling "All Airlines Refund Center" gives no links to them, apart from the FB page.

Toy Boy Posted June 4, 2020 Posted June 4, 2020 No reviews on their FB page, and the only thing they've ever posted is multiple copies of that picture. Either they're a v-e-r-y young business venture or it's a scam. In either case, I doubt that it would be wise to do business with them.

I had to wait for a while I booked through Netflights.com and have just received full refund (they went on the advice of Qatar and applied to Qatar in my name) I wasn't due to fly until 12th July
roomark Posted June 6, 2020 Posted June 6, 2020 I booked one internal flight with Air Asia they are giving nothing out but excuses and change dates bla bla bla.

They may honor your vouchers but the bangkok post pretty much said good luck getting a cash refund. Was 10 days ago or so sorry pumpkin no link 1
thegrogmonster Posted June 7, 2020 Posted June 7, 2020 Got an email from AirAsia yesterday.Originally they said we had 12 months to use the credit they gave us. Now they have said we have 2 years to make a booking and you can book a year in advance. So really up to 3 years to fly with them on our flight credits.Good on AirAsia for doing this.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2
Butch Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 The "all airlines refund" is a scam, https://www.theregister.com/2020/04/15/flight_refund_email_scam/ At the very least they will harvest personal details, at worst, get CC or bank details, maybe through social engineering once they have you signed up. It might also be a method of scamming loyalty / FF accounts: https://skift.com/2020/04/27/an-uptick-in-fraud-is-complicating-airline-refunds-for-canceled-flights/ The Airlines / TA's are the only people able to refund or credit an original purchase, all my refunds came direct although they did take a bit of time, incidentally I always book direct with the Airlines these days, ever since we got stranded in the RP during the Volcanic Ash cloud event.
