Bought their return advance ticket and…

Bought their return advance ticket and was about to board in Paddington today when I realised I had mixed up the travel directions. The staff at the station informed me that I had to cancel the tickets and repurchase new ones, because for whatever reason their tickets aren't interchangeable, even though the trains are always deserted...Tried to do it through their website only to be told that there was no refund at all or exchange as they were advance tickets. What a terrible customer service on their behalf! I am sure this mistake happens daily and there's no loss to them whatsoever. I on the other hand now had to pay twice. Absolute disdain for their customers. Will never be using them again!

Get the lizzie line instead

Bought a return ticket for August with the early bird deal and never got sent the confirmation email or the tickets. Contacted customer service and they asked me to provide details such as booking reference and date of travel, which I provided. Then they insisted I provide the email I used to buy tickets, and I gave them the one I wrote in on, which apparently isn’t the one I used to buy the tickets even though it is. I emailed them proof of the money being taken from my bank account so I clearly did buy the ticket, I even sent them a screenshot of my booking reference I took after I bought the tickets. I only bought them because the £20 deal made it slightly cheaper than the lizzie line, and the Piccadilly line is closed when I travel, other than that it’s quite the rip off.

Poor Service

Bought an early bird ticket as it’s a great offer but due to a glitch did it a second time.Even though I immediately raised it - no refund or anything that can be doneNot very good service or understanding at allSo if in doubt avoid them. I will use an alternative means of getting to Heathrow eg tube or Elizabeth line

no rules enforced

They let all people board all wagons regardless of business class making it unfair to those that didn’t pay first class but didn’t get first class seats and those that paid first class tickets that wasted their money. Chaotic

I sat on a train for 40 minutes with no hint of when the train would move. The whole fraud od the Heathrow Express is mendacity at its greatest. Please look for an alternative. It's dirty, crowded and unreliable

Cancelled Train followed by a late train. Very unreliable, not worth the money, just get the tube.

A national embarrassment

Their trains are a total ripoff, clearly designed to take advantage of unsuspecting tourists thinking it’s the only option to get into London. It is shameful that visitors to the UK will have a negative first impression of the country by being completely ripped off. Do not use their trains, take the Elizabeth Line instead for a fraction of the price and it will also take you further than just Paddington.

40-minute delay

40-minute delay - had to rush through the airport. No warning despite all other trains and the Elizabeth line stating delays.They said you can get a refund online - this was near impossibly complicated, I eventually figured out how to do it and they said that I was outside the 30 period. Nice one!

Train canceled AGAIN

Train canceled AGAIN. They charge over the head and don't maintain lines. Garbage service, just use the underground instead.
