Something Went Wrong: How to Raise It and What Happens Next

Updated 3 min read

Most trips go as booked, but when one doesn't — a late arrival, a driver issue, something that just wasn't right — it helps to know the actual process for raising it, rather than being unsure whether a complaint disappears into nothing.

Raise it with us first

Email support@forare.eu with your booking reference and a clear description of what happened. That's the first and required step — we acknowledge within 2 working days and give you a decision within 14 days. Being specific about the trip, the date and what went wrong helps us look into it properly rather than delay while we track down the details ourselves.

What happens while it's being looked into

We look at the actual trip — driver reports, flight tracking data if relevant, timing — rather than take either side's account alone. If something on our end genuinely went wrong, we say so and put it right; that might mean a refund, a partial refund, or another resolution depending on what actually happened.

If you're not satisfied with our decision

You can take the matter to Allmänna reklamationsnämnden (ARN), an independent public body that reviews consumer disputes free of charge. We follow ARN's recommendations. Swedish consumers can also get free guidance from Hallå konsument, and consumers from other EU countries from ECC Sweden — both are independent of us and exist specifically to help with exactly this kind of situation.

What a good complaint includes

  • Your booking reference, from the confirmation email
  • The date and route of the trip in question
  • A clear, specific description of what happened, with times if you have them
  • What outcome you're looking for, if you have a clear view on it

What you shouldn't expect to have to do

You shouldn't need to chase repeatedly for a response, or explain the situation from scratch to a different person each time. One clear email with your booking reference is enough to start the process, and the timeline — acknowledgement within 2 working days, a decision within 14 — is something you can hold us to, not a vague promise. If you're not hearing back within that window, it's entirely reasonable to follow up and reference the original email.

Why raising it matters, even for something small

It's worth flagging even a minor issue rather than letting it go unmentioned, because the only way anything gets corrected — for you or for the next traveller in the same situation — is if it's actually reported. A complaint isn't treated as a confrontation on our side; it's information about something that didn't go the way it should have, and we'd genuinely rather know about it and put it right than have it go unsaid.

What every Förare booking includes

  • Flight tracked — pickup follows your live arrival
  • 45 minutes free waiting, from your driver's confirmed arrival
  • No terminal fee
  • No surge pricing, ever
  • Free cancellation up to 12 hours
