Wizz Air might deduct money from your account without notice: here is why

Passengers are still not notified separately about expiring credits by Wizz Air. In response to a question from Napi.hu about the quite deceptive commercial practice, the airline thanked for the warning and promised to correct the error.

Money randomely deducted from Wizz Air accounts

As we reported back in the summer, Napi.hu reported that passengers were unhappy that certain amounts had been unexpectedly deducted from their Wizz Air accounts without any prior warning. Zsolt Varga, the writer of the napi.hu article says that just like then, some thousands and tens of thousands of forints continue to disappear from passengers’ Wizz accounts without notice. The only the word that appears next to them is “withdrawal”, without any explanation of exactly what happened.

Wizz Air promised a quick fix

When napi.hu brought this to Wizz Air’s attention, they acknowledged the error and promised a quick fix. “The word “felvétel” next to the credit is due to an unfortunate translation error: an incorrect Hungarian translation of the original English word “withdrawal”. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, we will correct it immediately,” they wrote.
