So is anyone still experiencing a buggy Singaporeair.com website?
I'm trying to book PER - GRU for next year with a stopover in BCN for next year and am having frustration to no end!
 
Their website is a mess and has been since they 'upgraded' it more than a year ago. Send them a complaint by e-mail but more importantly call them, they are quite helpful over the phone. I also find that calling their Singapore number is often more efficient.
 
My test is whether I can view my booking next month through SingaporeAir on Safari. As per normal, it fails. IE7 at work - the browser that will see you being charged a fee at Kogan for being so outdated, works, just.
 
Not impressed with SQ at all. Why is it still a mess?
I mean there were bugs last year - why haven't they been fixed...

Probably easier to call up Krisflyer and get them to book for me... hope to get the 15% discount too!
 
Yes the SQ website has been and still is full of gemlins sonce upgrade - SQ / KF staff in SIN are fabulous to deal with though.

I don't do paid flts but for KF just call their SYD # and they will solve all your probs on phone - and still give you the 15% saving - just tell them website prob - they have heard it a million times.
 
I have tried to delete a redemption nominee on line........without success. Tried multiple times over 2 days.

I went back and used 3,000 points as the credit card payment would not update the deletion. That of course is very strange seeing I have redeemed points and paid fees on this card multiple times last week and when I tried to pay 30 something SG dollars it was a no go. The good news is we have used 2 commas of points and all the flight recipients are very,very happy. It has been " Hello Suites and First and Business Class flights for four of us".

Ditto experiences for the Buggy & at times clunky SQ Website..
The former site was not as pretty, though was more reliable & user friendly.
It sure is a well reputed factor about the website, even for SQ.. Who ever built/maintains the damn thing should be incarcerated in Changi prison for 'degradation" of the national airline.
As is similar problems for the the call centre being trunk through & outsourced to at times lesser quality untrained staff.
I've sent my gripes to SQ management re; these issues & received a fast responded letter mentioning of improvements being immediately implemented.
As always, SQ service recovery is always good, so shall see how the improvements shape up.

It has been almost two years. I don't think they are focussed on resolving website issues. Some of the functionality issues have been there since the update and simply are not being resolved.
 
Have spent literally hours on SQ web site last month - some areas are indeed getting worse.

Still the KF call centre will resove aLL issues instantly.

In a sense, this is the cause of the issue. Instead of fixing the website issue they beefed up call centre staff numbers and training. I guess they have lower staff costs which makes this possible. Although I usually always speak with Singapore based staff which don't necessarily have a significantly lower wage rate than Oz workers.
 
The Frequent Flyer Concierge team takes the hard work out of finding reward seat availability. Using their expert knowledge and specialised tools, they'll help you book a great trip that maximises the value for your points.

They have fixed some issues. I have award redemptions from BMI & UA which were not visible after the change of reservation systems, but are now back again. Also, they have the BTC option visible which wasn't there before the change.
