HEADLINE PRCE is good but the fact they dont price the luggage means you costs are going to go right up especially if you dont get all the details which seem few and contact the carrier prior to flight just a headline grabbing website really

Good prices but the customer service is terrible They called me after I have made the booking from the US which is costly for me to pick up as they wanted to confirm my purchase I did it online Of course I want to buy it And since my cards were not working something wrong with their site I had to use my partner s one And then they asked me to put him on the phone What for The website said that card name did not need to match the person flying details So why did they call me It was quite ridiculous the whole procedure and I would not buy with them again if I can avoid it

It was stressful as 6 hours after my flight booking student universe erroneously sent me an email saying my ticket couldn t be issued and they can no longer help me The flight was for next morning and it was the last ticket available I was very stressful They later sent me another email saying it was an error and finally issued a ticket which then the airline took overnight to confirm Till I received my online boarding pass I was highly stressed if I would be able to fly out or not It did come together at the end but after some stress

Terrible customer service and a travel
Terrible customer service and a travel protection plan that is effectively useless The lower prices only make the site marginally better than say Priceline or Expedia but the headache that follows is not If you decide to use it don t buy any of the extra embellishments as it s just a waste of money

Friendly service but had to send
Friendly service but had to send passport photo copy of debit card front and back and FAST Luckily was home more likely scenario was that ticket would have got cancelled Finally there was concerns whether my tickets were valid at all because I bought them through STUDENTunivierse which targets students

Racial profiling
It is disappointing that I received a phone call from their agent who bluntly questioned our passport s nationality by profiling our ethnicity hinted by our last name What an irony that the agent works in a sector that relies on global mobility Racial profiling of your customer is not acceptable

Generally doesn t make sense
The hotel was 4 star when it was mentioned 5 star on the website I paid more than the fee shown in the receipt Too many different transaction fees even if I paid from uk This should have been mentioned earlier The breakfast wasn t included in the hotel when I arrived however the I paid for the deal including breakfast on the website
