Horrible experience with Joivy
Horrible experience with Joivy. Honestly, I would never recommend this company to anyone.
The advertising is misleading, I booked a room and got cancelled without any communication or solution. After a whatsapp saying they cancelled, I called and they said it was not cancel, followed by another call saying it was cancel. They did not returned my money at any point. The whole process has been a nightmare. I still haven’t received my €575 refund, they said they sent it but never did. When I first asked for my money back, they told me it had already been refunded, only to come back later asking for my bank details because apparently the money had never actually been sent. So I was told the refund had been made, but I’m still here chasing my own money.
The customer service has been just as bad. People on the phone were rude, constantly interrupting me and barely letting me speak. Instead of properly answering my questions, they gave vague, dismissive responses and kept repeating the same things. They also claimed they had offered me alternative accommodation when, they had never actually done so. The alternative was a link to their webpage.
The emails are just as frustrating: repetitive, generic and seemingly AI-generated, going round in circles without answering the actual questions I ask. And now, instead of trying to resolve the situation, they have decided to close the conversation by email and refuse to discuss the matter any further, while I STILL haven’t received my money.
The whole experience has felt dishonest, disrespectful and incredibly stressful. Rather than taking responsibility and helping their customer, they seem more interested in closing the case and making the problem go away.
If you’re considering using Joivy, be very careful, keep every email and document and make sure you understand exactly what you’re agreeing to. I would absolutely not recommend them.
