Shocking Staff Behaviour

I went to the basingstoke branch today to get some currency, I was dealt with by an amazing lady called Cally, she was extremely helpful and gave me loads of travel money advice and helped me set up a travel card
The reason this has got a 2 star review is not because Cally the currency lady was awful it was because she was treated appallingly by another member of staff while I was there.
It was not her fault the delivery came while I was there ,she asked for help from another member of staff and got eye rolling and attitude ,the whole thing was embarrassing, In front of myself and the delivery guy,
Very Shocking but Cally gets 5 stars

Excellent Customer Service

I was very impressed with the the customer service I received from Hays Travel in Basingstoke. I rang and spoke with Rhiannon. This is the first time I have used Hays Travel and booking a Jet 2 holiday was also a first too. She patiently went through all the booking procedures throughly and all the questions I had. I found her to be extremely polite and helpful.

Personal service

We booked a cruise yesterday and were well served by Rhiannon & Suzanne. They took us through various options, confirmed that there was nothing relevant from Cunard in our designated time frame and we alighted on a good deal from Celebrity Cruises.

All went well but unfortunately I wasn’t asked my date of birth so it’s been put down wrong on the paperwork and I cannot access my booking on my app ? Could someone please contact me to amend this?
Many thanks

When things go wrong

My vulnerable father rather ambitiously booked a P&O cruise that he would not be able to go on due to health.
Manager Michael, Izzy and Kerry at head office were so helpful and went the extra mile to sort out the situation and undo the booking. P&O cruises were also sympathetic in dealing with the situation in the right way. Thank you all for a professional customer focused approach which was very much appreciated and not so common these days. I will be booking with Hays Travel.

Both ladies I dealt were helpful and constructive with ideas. I wasn't made to feel I was wasting time. No rush. No feeling of being made to feel I was holding them up. I came away with the impression that in future individual travel arrangements I use my local Basingstoke Hays Travel Shop.
