TOP INSIGHTS

A weekly roundup of Treatwell: Beauty Bookings's key feedback

1

Customer Support Issues

A significant number of users, approximately 20%, report difficulties in reaching customer support for issues like refunds and cancellations. The app's reliance on chatbots and lack of direct contact options frustrates users seeking timely resolutions.

I tried contacting them multiple times through the app and by email, but no proper follow-up has been provided.

2

Appointment Cancellations

Around 15% of users experience unexpected appointment cancellations, often without timely notification. This leads to wasted time and inconvenience, as users arrive at closed salons or find their appointments unfulfilled.

I booked two massage appointments for Mother’s Day, both were cancelled the night before.

3

App Performance Problems

Approximately 10% of users report issues with the app's performance, including slow loading times, login difficulties, and app crashes. These technical problems hinder the booking process and overall user experience.

App not working, very slow. Tried to reinstall it but the issue is still there.

4

Refund and Payment Issues

About 12% of users face challenges with refunds and unexpected charges. Users report being charged for services not rendered and difficulties in obtaining refunds, leading to dissatisfaction and distrust.

I still haven’t received my refund. The customer service is incredibly slow and unresponsive.

Quotes of the week

Hear from some of the most impactful users to drive changes

Booking appointments through the app is very convenient, however if you experience any problems with getting a refund, be warned that the only way to complain is via the chat bot, which often leads nowhere. There’s no phone number or email address. Contacting the salon directly is actually safer!
Elsp9
Honestly, book directly with the salon than this app. They cancelled my appointment and the app wouldn’t even say it was cancelled, and then to compensate that I went there wasting my time, they offered 15% off seriously? Doesn’t even pay the petrol of my waste time. Just very poor, the only thing this is useful for is for appointments and it failed. Never again. Try Booksy instead
sararmchaves
Be aware that service providers can simply not show up at the scheduled time, and the platform takes no responsibility for it. I arrived at the salon and it was closed — the 5-star rated therapist never came and didn’t even answer the phone. I wasted hours getting to my appointment, only to find out that — with no compensation or accountability.
