The flight attendants onboard the planes are still friendly, but the customer experience as a whole is suffering. I will book delta if I have to, but will not use them almost exclusively as I have in the past until they get a handle on customer service.

I can assure you I will make that choice in the future as I do not feel like I would be treated with either dignity or respect because of my race being white! I and that woman who were punished have every right to exhibit our beliefs on your plane. If you're going to allow someone else exhibit theirs, be fair and allow all or exclude all!
What the hell is wrong with your company.

My flight was cancelled due to COVID19 and as soon as I found out in March 2020, I called Cheapo and KLM to inquire about the next steps and to obtain a refund. I have called Cheapo since March 2020 to obtain a refund as my flight was cancelled. After four months, I received a refund from Cheapo in late July 2020 but only for $660. 51. I called KLM again, and they confirmed that I should receive a full refund as my flight was cancelled. I called Cheapo about two weeks ago and their reply was that KLM did not update my ticket's flight status to cancelled, therefore I did not receive a full refund of $960. 51 and was penalized $300. My father booked this same round-trip and we paid separately. He promptly received a full refund of $960. 51 after calling Cheap only twice or so. They are treating their customers unequally and this is very wrong.
Both KLM and Cheapo have given me the runaround. I spoke to Cheapo on 8/2/20 to ask for an update. They told me that KLM only sent them $660. 51 instead of a full refund amount, and I was penalized for $300 for an unknown reason. However, KLM told me they sent the full refund amount of $960. 51 to Cheapo. Please, please help me obtain the remaining $300 of the refund that is owed to me due to the flight being cancelled.
I have traveled with Delta, a KLM partner, for years so I did not expect this disregard for their customers. Please just give me the money I am owed so I can move on.

After repeatedly calling Delta for about a month, I finally got someone on the line in April, who tells me that there is no problem in rescheduling a flight through Delta whenever I鈥檇 know which dates I鈥檇 travel.
It鈥檚 June and I finally know when I can travel to Italy. After hours on the line, I finally reach Delta, but this time they tell me that I can鈥檛 book a flight with them since I bought a ticket through a travel agency. They say that I have to contact the travel agency asking for another flight or a refund. First contradiction.
I try to reach out to the travel agency, but they don鈥檛 reply, so I fill out the forms asking for another flight or a refund. Days go by, and I don鈥檛 have any answer from the travel agency, so I call Delta, I explain the situation with the travel agency, and they tell me that there鈥檚 no problem at all actually, and that I can book a flight directly with them. Second contradiction. This is already quite convoluted, but at least I booked the flight I think.
However, a couple of days later I receive a refund from the travel agency, and I later found that my booking has been canceled. I call Delta, and they tell me that the reservation has been canceled because, by issuing the refund, the travel agency itself canceled my reservation. I call the travel agency and they tell me they didn鈥檛 cancel my reservation, and that they don鈥檛 even have the power to do such a thing. I then call Delta again and they admit that it wasn鈥檛 the travel agency, but Delta that canceled the reservation because I got the refund. So what they previously told me about the travel agency cancelling the reservation was false (if not even a lie), and they rebooked my flight knowing that I would have it later canceled again by them.
I explain the situation, telling them that I was first being told that I could reschedule the flight with Delta, then that it wasn鈥檛 possible, then they rescheduled the flight, then they canceled it. They tell me that I can鈥檛 expect to receive a refund from the travel agency and also reschedule the flight. I said that I wouldn鈥檛 have asked for the refund in the first place if I could have rescheduled the flight directly with Delta in the first place and that I鈥檇 gladly return the refund in order to reschedule the flight, given that now the price of my flight was three times higher. They tell me that this is not possible. I finally booked another flight. with another airline.
In conclusion, besides the endless waits on the phone, I received false, misleading and inconsistent information from Delta. The customer service has been truly awful. I鈥檓 shocked they treat customers this way, in particular given the current crisis in the aviation industry. If they want to scare away customers, that鈥檚 the most efficient way to do it.

Some backstory: relocating as a remote worker. I packed my work equipment with multiple layers of bubble wrap and clothing, put them into a box, and sealed it with guerilla tape.
I checked my box as an oversized special item to prevent any mishandling. The lady at the counter marked the box as fragile and oversized. She then told me that I could claim the item in a designated area as it would not drop down the conveyor belt.
She then asked me to sign away all liability saying that they'll take REASONABLE care of my property but aren't liable for damages.
Well, Delta's definition of reasonable care means that they'll stack boxes on top of a box marked fragile, send it over to standard baggage claim tumbling down the conveyor belt, bend the box(how?), Then the coup de gr芒ce, puncture the box and it's content…
So I see the box tumbling down the conveyor belt and I'm dmbfounded… This is not what was discussed. Its about to flip over the sides since it tumbled end over end but luckily It caught balance and landed with a thump back onto the belt.
I go to the counter to explain to the lady who's clearly annoyed, what happened to my box. She asked me to test if everything in there works. I couldn't find the wires for the monitors and we ended up speaking to Scott Winters of LAX. I pointed out every bend and hole on the box saying, this isn't reasonable care.
After seeing the box Scott said I can go home to buy wires and test the monitors within 24hrs, email him and then we'll work something out if it's broken. I'm guessing this was to just get me out of the airport because he later ghosted me.
The next morning I got some new wires and plugged in my BenQ which worked fine. I then unwrap my dell 27" ultrasharp ips monitor and see what appears to be a hole that's penetrated the first two layers of the screen.
Naive and hopeful, I plug in the monitor thinking that it'll still work and if it's just a scratch then I can live with that. But after plugging it in That scratch started to look more like fractures as the screen begin to illuminate. It was done.
I called Delta's help support number, when I finally got through to someone I barely got out half a sentence before being interrupted. The gentleman proceeded to interrupt me a few more times until I finally got my story out and after a final interruption I just hung up.
I emailed Scott to update him on the progress I had made, I also sent a message via Facebook messenger to Delta to figure out how to actually put a claim in for the issue. Scott replied back thanking me for keeping him in the loop.
I finally got a ticket submitted and within an hour someone had already denied my claim. I cc Scott on the email asking them to make things right. They offer me $250 travel coupon. I absolutely decline and you can remove it from my account then remove my account.
I send another message to Scott, he was friendly so I'm sure he'd be willing to help, nope. He ghosted me.
I've made quite a few trips with Delta in the past for work and I religiously chose them because of their seating space and how easy it is to check in. No more. I'd rather fly spirit. You all really showed how much you value the 9-5 regular Joe. I bet if I was a frequent first class passenger you all would have been way more hepful and and remorseful for your clear negligence of handling and someone else's property.

This airline lost my luggage in Seattle, told me to wait in the airport for all the other delta planes to land that night, then told me they'd send the bag to my address. I had to wait over one month for Delta to locate my bag, despite the automated voice message and all representatives that I spoke to, telling me that my bag was safe and would be delivered the following day. They lost my bag over the entire Christmas period, It contained all my presents and clothes that had packed for my family reunion. The fact that I was lied too about having my bag delivered the following day, every day, meant that I was reluctant to replace the contents of my bag.
Delta representatives told me over the phone that I would not be charged for the phone calls I made to their helpline. This was a lie. When I challenged them and asked to be reimbursed for the bill that was over 500 euro, I was told, "it's not our policy to reimburse phone calls"…
It obviously is within their policy to lie to customers, lose their luggage, and ruin their Christmas holiday. Do not fly with Delta. Fly with anybody else!
