      Complaint: 16326980

      I am rejecting this response because:

      I was charged for 2 tickets for myself for the same date and when I tried to contact ***, Noone answers the telephone, or replies to my text via whatsapp and messenger as you indicated as contact resources available on the *** site.

      Again, the ticket purchased on November 30th, needs to be refunded as I do not needs 2 flight tickets for me on the same departure  date.

      I look forward to your immediate reply.


      Sincerely,

      On May 26,2021 I purchased a plane ticket for ****** from Delta with my Discover Card.. My trip was to *********** which was in the midst of a Hurricane in September.. I attempted to call Delta on August 30 was on hold for 5 hours I finally disconnected the call after those 5 hours which was 1 am.. I called Discover to see what I should do since it was a Hurricane and I didn't purchased the insurance on the ticket.. The Agent advised me to file a dispute so this is what I did. The next day still trying to reach Delta after several after hours I finally was able to speak with an Agent who said the flight hadn't been canceled yet!! There is a Hurricane and people were advised not to go to *********** so why isn't the flight canceled yet its two days before the departure date of September 3 I believe.. However the Agent said I can cancel your ticket and give you a e credit ok that's fine.. Well come to find out they canceled that e credit and didn't even tell me and kept my money.. Told Discover that I had an e credit that I could use but they told a story.. So now both companies are sending me in circles about my ******. I'm out of a ticket as well as my money.

      On Sunday November 28,2021 my account was debited $50 by Delta. I called Delta on Monday November 29,2021, but decided to do chat with a representative. I was told by the representative that all she could see on her end that it was a delayed payment. On July 29,2021 I had a flight to Atlanta and a return flight to Iowa on August 1,2021 that was four months ago. The representative was unable to explain the delayed payment, so I asked for a supervisor or manager to explain and assist on me getting the $50 credited back to my account. Supervisor ******* contacted me via chat, she stated that the delayed payment was due to a seat upgrade. I asked Supervisor ******* why wasn't this payment taken the time of my seat upgrade and she could not explain why, I then said that I know why the person who took my ticket upon me boarding did not state that a payment was needed, which is the mistake of Delta's employee and not mine. Supervisor ******* apologized and stated if it was an over charge and I can show proof of the over charge she will be happy to assist with a refund. My issue is not a over charge, my issue is that four months later on a Sunday my account was debited $50 with no letter, email or phone call letting me know that this $50 delayed payment will be taking place. My feelings is this delayed payment should be at the expense of Delta Airlines and not mine. P.S. This is the receipt number of the $50 debit (*************) this receipt number was taken from my online banking account.

      Delta had a delay in a international flight, I made my connecting flight but my bags didnt to my final destination.My bags were delivered the following day however i paid for the bags to be checked and want those charges reversed for the inconvenience. I have called customer service and the wait on the phone gives you an option for call back. except they don't call back. I emailed the company directly as well and has not got a response with up to 30 day return response which in my opinion is professionally unacceptable. I am seeking prompt communication and arefund in a timely manner for the $150 charge for 2 checked bags ASAP.Flight date: 11/27/2021 Flights: VS4007; DL2983 Delta Case#********

      Delta Air Lines required me to check my carry-on bag claiming that there was not more overhead space. After boarding the flight, I realized this was a lie as there was plenty of space available. On arrival at the baggage claim, I noticed my bag was severely damaged by Delta. I filled a complain at the airport and after online. This was more than 2 months ago and Delta still hasn't come back to me with a solution. Moreover the delta employee was extremely rude, same as the gate agents that required me to check my bag. They also told me lies about how to proceed, what delta covers that are not correct per dot guidelines

      On Saturday November 29 2021 my husband and I had to fly from ******* to ************ at 10:50. We were waiting at the airport for about 4 hours until they let us know that the flight is canceled for the next day at 9am. First, it was frustrating having to wait at the airport all this time .Second, the Delta airlines do not accept responsibility for the cancelation therefore we had to pay for the hotel that we stayed $90 and for the Uber trips $46.95 . Delta should compensate these expenses. Third, after getting the flight at 9 am the pilot apologized for the inconvenience and he added that he did not know why this cancelation happened . Apparently , this happened because there was a shortage of pilots? Finally, I usually tutor on Sunday mornings and this cancelation cost me to cancel three tutoring that I had in the morning. This was completely frustrating and unprofessional. We need to be compensated at least for the money we spend for that night $ 90 for staying at the hotel and $50 for Uber

      Hi I had a flight a few weeks ago on DL5660 on November 10, 2021 from *** to *** that was delayed and as a result my wife missed her flight to ******. Additionally the flight attendants were unhelpful in trying to get her off the plane as quick as possible. They lied to us and told us she would have 30 minutes by the time we deplaned to the time she would need to be at the next gate. Additionally, after they made a generic announcement about people at the back of the plane that needed to catch flights, I attempted to announce to everyone to please move out of the way as my wife had an international flight to catch. I was then accosted by another passenger who I then replied back to at which point the flight attendant threatened to not allow us to get off the plane. Furious, I then yelled that her mother was in the hospital on the other side of the world dying of COVID. Finally some other passengers helped her to try and get through but the flight was so late she missed it. And we literally RAN to the gate. Overall I am very disappointed with Delta team members help and I want to inform you of this incident and see what you can for me.

      I have a case number ******** with Delta about damaged equipment. They said they would contact me by 30 days. It has been well over 30 days. The claim: I had some items damaged during a flight with Delta in my damaged luggage. It was hard navigating how to submit a claim. The luggage claim was submitted at the airport, but I didn't find out about the damaged items until after the fact. The flight confirmation was GV4BT6 for **** 28th-July 4th. The items were work related headphones and Neck fans. I am sending examples of the items of the items along with receipts. There were 2 headphones and 2 neck fans. I would like these items refunded due to damage.

      RE: Case ******** Dear JAYLATINARAH *******,We phoned you at ************ but our attempt was unsuccessful. Thank you for contacting Delta Air Lines regarding the missing property from your checked luggage.  On behalf of all of us at Delta, we hope you will accept my sincere apology for this unfortunate and concerning incident. We need to respectfully explain, however, that Delta will assume responsibility when luggage irregularities are reported to us within twenty-four (24) hours of arrival.  Our records indicate you traveled on June 28, 2021, however this issue of the missing property was not reported until October 6, 2021.  Due to the length of time involved, and in order to treat all customers with equity, we are unable to accept a claim from you at this juncture.   The ticket contract covering your travel exclude responsibility for cash, securities, negotiable papers, irreplaceable documents, jewelry, silverware, precious metals, works of art, camera, electronic, and computer equipment, as well as any other items that cannot easily be replaced, in checked or unchecked baggage. As a gesture of goodwill, we have issued an Electronic Transportation Credit Vouchers totaling $ (eTCV) in the amount of $100.00each*.  Please note the voucher number and associated Terms and Conditions will be arriving in a separate email.  We encourage you to add Delta Air Lines to your receiver list so the voucher document is not misdirected to your spam folder.  Please keep the voucher number and the Terms and Conditions since the number is required for redemption.  It is also important to remind you that there is no Direct Ticketing fee for reservations confirmed online at delta.com.Thank you for the opportunity to review this matter with you.  We hope that despite this unfortunate incident and the position we must take, you will include Delta Air Lines in your future travel plans.
