Has anyone received this message before? I have tried the telephone number but it is engaged. Thank you.
-We’re very sorry, although payment has been authorised, there has been a problem confirming your booking. Please call us on +44 (0) 20 8707 4460 and quote reference: XXXXX where we will be able to assist you.-
No, but the IT is all over the place. Has the payment gone through on your card?
Give them a call, they are very helpful. I’d suggest early morning as it took me 20 mins to get a reply yesterday early afternoon. They’d moved my flight forward 8 hours but left the car hire to be collected at the old time but changed it very quickly and emailed me a new confirmation immediately.
Thank you for the reply NL. The payment is showing on my card – I have been trying to get through since 8.30am but engaged every time so far.
Oh dear – maybe afternoon is actually better then.
Have you checked your booking to see if it’s actually all in order? The message might just have been a BA IT wobble!
Are you sure that is a genuine BA Holidays number?
I just looked it up on who called me and it says
02087074460
This number is a landline operated by Virgin Media Limited, and is located in London, England

I think you should be phoning
0344 493 0787 option 1
(calls charged at local rate)
Daily: 08:00-23:59
Has the payment been reflected in the booking?
I.e. is it showing as zero balance due?
I called the 0344 number – I think even though I selected option 1, it wasn’t clear that I was calling BA holidays until they answered!
Would the 0208 number be the one they give you to call if you need them while you’re actually on the holiday?

No – it still shows as me owing the money

Many thanks AJA – I reached out on to BA Twitter and this is the very number that they gave me! I shall try it later.
