Jeddah to Mecca Destination Reviews

II
Imran I
I booked and fully paid for 4 trips in Haramain Railway through these people, all bookings were Bussiness class tickets 2 weeks before the trips but received economy tickets 3 hrs before 1st trip, never received tickets for rest of my trips ended up staying in the city of Makkah which consequently caused no show at the hotel in the next destination city. Communication with their representatives was useless. This app and their service is a big scam , they should be under fraudulent investigations, if I know where they are based I will take legal action. I am still travelling, once I reach Canada my homeland I will make every effort to have them blacklisted.
