Knowledgeable staff

Knowledgeable staff, who spent time explaining about different aspects of the cruise.
He did not hurry us into making a decision, unlike other cruise booking websites who just seemed glorified sales people.

Poor customer service

Always had good service from Iglu. Unfortunately on this occasion I feel let down on their site they say they will always price match. So on this occasion I asked about price matching. All I got was we can't match that . Sorry. Am not sure what more I can tell you. I had a price for a cruise. I rang iglu to see if they would price match it . I did send them my quote. All i got was we can't match that. Which isn't what they say on their website.

Resolved quickly and well supported

My initial contact was online but I needed to speak to someone on the phone to resolve my issue as there were time constraints associated with it. The customer support staff were understanding and walked me through the process of switching my original booking. They informed me of the financial impact and helped me to get the booking switched to the new one I wanted and ensured the provider changed the booking. I was provided with new reference numbers and future payment dates. A stressful situation was made less stressful and I felt relived that everything went smoothly and was resolved by the customer support team.
