Advantages: Bad website design

Disadvantages: The online submission process is terribly designed

I recently got married and had set-up a wedding list with Trailfinders. I thought this would be good as people could make contributions online. Lots of guests and family live abroad, so the online facility was a selling point.
However, I found out that a friend had made a contribution but I hadn't receive the vouchers from her. I contacted Trailfinders who admitted that they had problems with their website. They told me that I needed to contact my friend and ask her whether the money had been debited.
I started to think that this could have happened to a number of guests and soon found out that it had. I phoned Trailfinder again, who said that they had no record of a family member having paid. I did not get an apology or explanation eventhough they put me in a difficult position, as it is very difficult and embarassing for me to contact every guest to ask them whether they have made a contribution or not.
I feel that I have lost out as I am not going to embarass myself or my guests and famiily by asking them whether they have contributed or not (and it is quite possible that someone at Trailfinders is pulling a fast one, pocketing my wedding gifts).

I have been in touch with Trailfinders several times since and still no apology or compensation. Whatever you do, don't set up your wedding list with Trailfinders

Summary: DO NOT use Trailfinders for your Wedding Gift List

i really like trailfinders and generally end up booking my flights with them. i didn't know they did wedding lists though and this story is quite disturbing, as you say it would be very embarrassing to check with guests whether and how much they contributed!

It would be great if you could add an introductory paragraph telling us a bit about the company and what they sell before launching into your experience with it - it would help to give the review some more context.

That is so true, a similar thing happened to me one year ago. What really frustrated me was that they just didn't admit that they were wrong. Trailfinders stink! I use to buy my flight tickets from them when I went to the U.S. and Mexico but I haven't bought anything from them in the last year.
