I agree Keith to an extent but as I said why take a risk when people have already had their cards cloned using this company.

Please be careful what you say Anne, there has been "NO PROOF" that A2B have or have not been involved with fraudulent use, yes it "SEEMS" that way but it is not yet verified to be fact.

No doubt with mine, hadn't used my UK card for anything else :(  booked with them again though, but went to their office and paid cash.

To refresh a topic.
 It appears there is still a problem with Resort Hoppa and card cloning.Friends who are adamant they only used their card once, for one transaction with them this year had it copied.
Again a Resort Hoppa problem and nothing to do with Sarpedon Travel, Diane/Dizzy, of this Forum who we continue to use but pay cash either at their office or to the driver.

It could be that the problem was from last year. I used my UK card to pay for an A2B transfer last June, about the time when their system was hacked. I didn't try to use the card again until February this year. The fraudulent activity on my card started at the end of January & within a month or so, they had racked up 44 statement pages. All monies have been returned by my bank

I used A2B for years and was always pleased with the service they provided but like others, my bank card was hacked and I associated it to A2B so have decided to change my transfer provider.  As well as this,A2B sub contracted my transfer in Kusadasi to a third party who let me down, resulting in me missing my flight to Istanbul, which had a huge knock on effect, which cost me a great deal of money.  To their credit, they did reimburse me some of the costs but that was the last straw.  I now use a pre-pay Mastercard for some transactions ad for use when I'm abroad.

I used A2B for years and despite many people suggesting I was paranoid/misinformed, I can guarantee my CC details, from a transaction with A2B, was hacked or whatever to book flights & hotels to the tune of £1002.

My bank rang me almost immediately, it was all stopped, and I did not lose £1002 or have to claim it back or prove it wasn't me.

I have booked A2B since and have no more concern in doing so than I would booking or buying anywhere else. The way some people talk is like there is someone in the A2B office in Fethiye with a dodgy terminal he bought from China on eBay, stuffing home made plastic cards with our details on, to pay for his life of Reilly.

It's ridiculous - it could happen when you use your card to pay for anything, anywhere.
