Beat My Quote! Travel Agents Thread

sloppychops

No im not an agent.This thread is also for members like myself to pm quotes not just Travel Agents (you need to read the rules again).

As I say i wasn't meaning to be rude, but there is being helpful and there is acting like a travel agent! To spend so much time on a customers quote - calling the operators to double check on flights and costs before they start to try and match a quote numerous times a day...?
I wasn't questioning how helpful they are, I was more wondering if they were a travel agent?

On the code of conduct it says you can if you wish put the signature on its does not state we have got to

so sloppy may very well be an agent. I have a feeling he may well be.

All travel agents need to display a signature.He is a she and is definetly not a travel agent.

This should be the only text in your signature. There should be no other notes or other hyperlinked text. Travel agents that do not choose to use this signature should not be PMing deals or indicating they are a travel agent in any other way in their posts.
