Avoid PINOY Tourism at All Costs – They Are a Scam!
I am absolutely furious with PINOY Tourism and want to warn everyone NOT to trust this company. They scammed my friend out of £400 for a Schengen visa application, and their shady business practices prove that they are nothing but fraudsters. I initially referred my friend to them after seeing their Instagram and checking their Trustpilot reviews. Even though I noticed some negative reviews, I still gave them the benefit of the doubt. Biggest mistake ever. My friend submitted all the required documents, including three updated bank statements, to prove financial stability. However, the visa was rejected due to “lack of financial evidence”—which made no sense since the statements were provided. After investigating, I found out that PINOY Tourism deliberately did not submit the bank statements. Their goal? To force my friend to rebook through them again—a greedy, selfish, and unethical way to run a business. When I confronted them for an explanation, they could not provide a clear answer and kept repeating the same nonsense—that the visa was rejected due to a lack of documents. If something was missing, why didn’t they inform my friend beforehand? That’s literally their job as a travel agency! Their incompetence and dishonesty cost my friend time, money, and stress. This company is a SCAM. Do not trust them. Do not waste your money. Learn from this experience and stay far away from PINOY Tourism!
