 complaints got resolved

COVID Refund Resolved: A customer waited months after a cancelled flight. After emailing refundassist@webjet.com.au with all documentation, they received a full refund (minus booking fees) within a week.

Hotel Closed on Arrival: A hotel in Singapore had shut down. The customer provided proof (disconnected phone, signage), and Webjet refunded the full cost within days and apologised.

How to escalate a complaint with Webjet

Not happy with Webjet’s first response? Here’s how to escalate:

  1. Request Internal Escalation:

    • Ask for a senior staff member to review your case.

    • Webjet commits to a final response within 10 business days for escalations.

  2. Escalate to ATAS (Industry Mediation):

    • Webjet is ATAS-accredited, meaning you can file a complaint at atas.com.au or call (02) 9287 9900.

    • ATAS can mediate and hold Webjet accountable to its code of conduct.

  3. Contact Consumer Protection (Fair Trading):

    • State-level agencies (like NSW Fair Trading, Consumer Affairs Victoria) may help if you believe Webjet breached consumer law.

  4. Consider Legal Action (Small Claims):

    • For unresolved cases where money is owed, you can lodge a claim with your local tribunal (NCAT, VCAT, QCAT).

  5. Social Media/Public Escalation:

    • Use this only after official routes. A factual post on X or Facebook can sometimes prompt a faster response.
