BBB warns those wanting to travel of what to look out for before buying
SHREVEPORT, La. With more people getting vaccinated and COVID restrictions loosening up some may want to start traveling.
While searching for trips you could be tempted to purchase a package deal if it looks good. However, the Better Business Bureau for the ArkLaTex advises consumers to be aware that you could lose money if you don t read the fine print before you purchase.
Tim Shane, BBB president, said they are seeing more issues with travel package refunds now, more than usual. We ve gotten lots of reports of folks that weren t able to have their trip, due the travel restrictions or things that would normally be entitled to a refund, said Shane. They re not able to get those refunds because of the fine print and how they book their travel. There are some places where non-accredited businesses may not be returning their phone calls or answering their calls to offer refunds,
