"TO BE HONEST, WE WERE SCAMMED"

Hüseyin Canhisar, who stated that he paid 3 thousand dollars for Umrah with his wife, said, "We applied for Umrah before the month of Ramadan. We paid 3 thousand dollars for my wife and me. Days and weeks passed, they said, 'There is a flight on the evening of March 26.' They said, 'We will go to Mecca on March 26.' We should have flown by now, but we cannot find anyone to talk to. They are not providing information about our flight. Everyone gathered here came to file a complaint at the police station. They are investigating the situation at the police station. To be honest, we were scammed by the Sivas agency of the company. The agency is not responding to us either. The truth is, we are left in the lurch," he said.
