I paid $183 USD for three 48-hour tickets for the Hop on Hop Off bus for my two young girls and I in London, and when I boarded the bus to start our 48-hour tickets, the tickets could not be accessed. I opened the multiple confirmation emails, clicked "get tickets", yet there were no tickets to be accessed. The HoHo worker onboard tried to help me (as the bus was driving), and he could not access my tickets either. We tried several different ways to access my tickets (I showed him my payment receipt and multiple email confirmations as well, tried resetting passwords, looked in my Trip Advisor account, etc.)
He suggested I request a refund and purchase new tickets, so I did that for another $150 USD.
Viator/Trip Advisor refused my refund request without explanation, so I paid $183 USD and received absolutely nothing.
