TV travel deals way overpriced

tv travel shops over pricing Tv travel deals exposed: The likes of TV travel shops and others of the same ilk, are not offering the best travel deals to the consumer, our recent survey has found.

The appeal of these TV Shops is the so called price led coverage, however this is not the case.

The usual example is: “That deal for £175 has just gone or that is based on 5 share or you need to add transfers to this booking…”

Not only are they offering prices that do not exist, but they use call centers to fulfil the deals, who then create unnecessary add ons to increase the price.

We found that the average deal on these TV travel shops was £50 to £80 pp more expensive than if you had booked direct with the Tour operators.

So before you hand over your credit card ask who the tour operator is, if they won’t tell you then don’t book.. Or if they tell you a tour operatoe you dont know.

With the demis of XL and freedom direct do not be conned out of your hard earned cash.
