Travel insurance, BA and my credit card provider keep saying TravelUp needs to change my flights, but I'm not sure how this is possible when you can't get hold of them.

I woudn't rely on them responding to any message via flyer talk


If their call cenre is in India then it has been shut down. Just like the BA one. On the orders of the Indian Government.

Apparently TravelUp are saying they will get back to you if you are due to fly within a week but I'm not sure if anyone has received any communication from them looking at the various 1 star reviews on Feefo/Trustpilot etc.

So the good news is, if you want to reach them really urgently, there is a way - just issue a small claim. They responded on what must have been the same day they received the notice, to say they were defending themselves against my claim in full!
