Terrible Experience with Opodo Prime…
Is Opodo legit?
LegitYou can book with Opodo knowing it is a proper online travel agency, part of the eDreams ODIGEO group, but read the checkout page closely. A box ticked there or a free trial can sign you up for Prime, its paid yearly membership, and the first sign may be the fee landing on your card.
What we checked
- Travel agency since 2001
- Started by European airlines
- Ratings on other review websites: 4.5/5
Watch out for
- A Prime membership fee charged after a trial, or after a box ticked at checkout.
- A refund for a flight the airline cancelled, waiting somewhere between Opodo and the airline.
- A name or date entered wrongly at booking, which the fare rules can make costly to correct.

How do I contact Opodo customer service?
The number in our data for Opodo is +44-20-7660-2215. Opodo steers customers to the help section first: sign in at opodo.com, open the booking that went wrong and use the help or manage booking options attached to it, because an agent can only act on a booking they can see. Have the booking reference, the passenger names and the email address used at the time ready. Written contact is worth far more than a call here, so after every phone conversation send a short email repeating what was agreed and keep the reply.
One thing to expect: an airline and a travel agency are not the same party. If Opodo made the booking, the airline will usually send you back to Opodo, so start with the agency and record every time you are passed between them. Refund stuck between agency and airline? Start your complaint here and we help you write it up in minutes, drawing on thousands of complaint letters that actually worked.
How do I cancel Opodo Prime?
Opodo Prime is a subscription membership that is often added during checkout and then renews automatically, which is why so many travellers find a charge they were not expecting months later. Cancel it inside your account: sign in at opodo.com, open the Prime or membership section, cancel there before the renewal date and save the confirmation email or a screenshot of the cancellation screen. If you cannot find the option, send the cancellation in writing to customer service so the date is fixed, and note the reference.
Your card statement tells you exactly when the renewal falls. If the money has already gone and the membership was never made clear to you at the moment of booking, you can ask your bank or card issuer to stop further payments while you challenge the charge.
How do I get a refund from Opodo?
Be precise about what you are claiming: the ticket price, the taxes, or an agency service charge. When an airline cancels a flight that was booked through Opodo, the airline refunds the agency and the agency then has to hand it to you, and that handover is where the delay almost always sits. Request the refund through the help section on the booking, note the reference and the date, then contact the airline separately and ask in writing whether it has already released the money for that reservation. Under EU and UK air passenger rules a cancelled flight gives you the right to a refund, so the argument is about who is sitting on it, not about whether you are owed it. If a refund stalls, put the booking reference, the timeline and what each side told you in your complaint here, and other passengers whose money is stuck at the same agency can back your case up.
What do people complain about most at Opodo?
