Customer Service
We are committed to providing our customers with all the information
they need to make a reservation within a few clicks of their
mouse. Our online publications contain detailed information
including 30-40 images for each property. If travellers can't
find what they are looking for, they can ask our online Travel
Advisors - and get an answer within 60 minutes during European
office hours.
We place the utmost importance
on a clear pricing policy. Unlike some online reservations operators
we guarantee users that book with us that the rates they see
on our site will be the price they pay. There are no hidden
service fees or taxes, and no surprise cancellation fees.* Meal
treatment is clearly stated and any extra costs over accommodation
are clearly listed on the page users see before entering any
credit card details.
Through WorldBy.Com customers
are put in direct contact with the reservations person at each
property. There are no go-betweens, no extra costs and the accommodation
provider is able to give personal service that is not available
through regular online booking operators.
*Accommodation providers may charge cancellation
fees according to their own polices. All cancellation policies
are clearly stated in "Terms and Conditions" on the
booking pages.
