freedom direct

has anybody here dealt with the company **freedomdirect.co.uk.**. are they trustworthy? their prices are too good to be true.

I could be way off the mark here, but weren't they featured on watchdog recently ??

I'd check ABTA's site to see if they're bonded or not.

If it sounds too good to be true....

ok, i looked on the abta site, the abta number they give is showing they are registered, but they have about twenty other company names and they are quite new from what i can make out. this does not mean they are no good but they are quoting prices for the hotel algarve casino over the new year period which are less than a third of any other well known company. i just cant see how they can do it. and if they can, why cant the others?

Hi, I travelled to Israel with Freedom Direct this summer, they were very cheap [about �600 cheaper than any other holiday I could find!] and I had no problems.

Asking myself the same question this year. If you are still there, Tom, how did you get on? I have just booked with them & will keep you posted.

As promised, my findings of Freedom Direct : Top Team!
We used their service to book a week in Zante with an s/c studio at Oniro and everything was spot-on. Accomodation should have had more stars an' the flight could not be faulted (apart from 2hrs extra time in the sun waiting for plane to turn up).
Will be checking them out again next time.
