HOLIDAYMAKERS are still being told they have no hotels rooms when arriving on holiday - with some having to pay double. Earlier this month, tour operator FTI - one of the biggest in Europe - went bust . This had affected Youtravel, a UK-based bed bank, as well as Meeting Point.
Youtravel.com initially confirmed that all bookings up to June 11 were cancelled, before extending this to June 11. This has since been extended to July 5.
The majority of Brits affected are t hose who booked with loveholidays , due to them using both Youtravel and Meeting Point. Annie Cox, 24, arrived at Labranda Targa Club Aqua Parc in Morocco on Tuesday after booking with loveholidays. However, they were then "kicked our of their room" and forced to pay for it again.
She said: "They let us check in and then they kicked us out our room, cut our wristbands off and left us to rot in reception for seven hours." Annie, from Plymouth , said they were told to pay £900 to keep her room. Other desperate holidaymakers have taken to social media, with many being forced to pay for their hotel again on arrival.
One person said: "Had to pay for another accommodation and I’m £1,300 out of pocket and they are not telling us anything." Another wrote: "£750 I've had to put on an emergency credit card so far so we have a roof over our head," A third said: "I had to pay for the accommodation again direct." Someone else commented: "Failed to pay accommodation in Ibiza and had to pay again ourselves or no bed.
" Othe.
