Travel agency: Аррива (Kyiv)
Service type: отель, авиаперелёт

Our attempt to purchase a tour from the Arriva agency failed. The director (Vladimir), in response to a request to rebook the tour to another country instead of Egypt (because there, according to media reports, the political and economic situation has worsened), did not want to listen to anything, began to threaten with court and prosecution. This is the first time I have encountered such a terrible attitude towards potential customers and outright blackmail.

Dear aokorokova, it is very easy to prove whether an employee has or does not have the right to sign. We asked this employee for a Power of Attorney to sign such documents. She didn't show up! What is there to prove ... A fact and a violation on the face. It was this violation on the part of the agency that contributed to the fact that the money was returned to us.

Many agencies do not bother to work in compliance with the elementary rules of the Act. And many clients do not know their rights. We turned out to be a little more knowledgeable than ordinary customers, which served us well. And for elitka "You changed the sales leader of a network of travel agencies to an unknown one and are you happy with this" ... I will say that on the same day when we received our money, we booked a trip to the UAE (which we asked the agency- change direction). The trip was great and the rest was a success!

oh, today it’s not there, tomorrow it is) it would be 100% by the court session, believe my practice)) and if the tourists so wanted to go, why didn’t they check the authority of the employee at the time of signing the contract ??? in the header of the contract there is always a signatory, and on the basis of which document he acts. It’s another matter if a person signed for another, then they would have to order an examination and prove that the signature was put by the wrong person ... and in general, it would be possible to prove that the tourists had deliberately entered into a fictitious contract in order to spoil the reputation of the company. There are many nuances, depending on how to turn the case in court)

Dear aokorokova, for the court session - perhaps this Power of Attorney would have been, BUT the court takes into account the date of signing the Agreement, and this was an earlier date than the notarized power of attorney. Tourists - they wanted to go, that's why they came literally the next day and asked to change the country, and please note that the replacement was offered not from a more expensive to a cheaper one, but on the contrary, tourists asked to be replaced by a more expensive country (at the cost of the tour). Note - the tourists had a goal to leave, not to take the money, and certainly not to check the legality of the signing of the preliminary Agreement. The Director of this agency was indicated in the Agreement, and signed by the manager, with his signature and surname. Therefore, it is not clear what kind of expertise you are talking about. And about the fictitious contract and "spoil" the company's reputation.. :-) Of course, but then the agency had to sue the clients, and not as a client. You undertake to comment on things either in which you do not understand or contradict each other.

I’m just saying that everything could turn out in court not in favor of tourists) but regarding a power of attorney, believe me, it’s not difficult to find a notary who will do it retroactively (many go to “crime” :) ) besides, you yourself post they said above that the contract was preliminary, not the main one ... and if we take into account the provisions of our legislation on preliminary agreements, then the so-called deposit (if this is really a preliminary agreement, and not the main one), and not the tour payment, may not be returned to you. As for the claim, the travel agency has the right to file a counterclaim against tourists. In short, there are many nuances.
I will say this, if a person really did not have the authority to sign and signed the Treaty, then the tourists were just VERY lucky. Otherwise, I would have dragged them through the courts)
I'm glad that the tourists had a good holiday with another travel agent)
It’s just that when I applied to Arriva (at the beginning of 2013) I found only this review, and for my part I can say that for 2 years of trips with the whole family through this travel agency, there were no complaints)
