Facing a very weird issue with Air India Express and Tata Neu.

I was booking a flight through the Air India Express and reached the payment page. I noticed extra convenience fees being added, so I did not complete the payment. However, despite the payment not being completed, my Tata Neu Coins still got deducted and a booking got created with pending payment.

Now both companies are redirecting me to each other:

- Air India Express says contact Tata Neu

- Tata Neu says Air India Express has to process the refund

What makes it worse is Air India Express support told me I need to pay the remaining booking amount first and then cancel the booking to get the coins back, which honestly makes no sense because I never completed the booking/payment.

Has anyone faced this before? Any suggestions on how to escalate this properly?

Hi, our first time visiting bali with 4 adults in early 30s, need few driver suggestions.

Hey guys,

Planning a 9-day trip to Bali this year during the dry season with my 4 cousins (all early 30s). Current plan looks like:

4 nights in Ubud

2 nights in Gili T

2 nights in Seminyak

Day trip to Uluwatu from Seminyak

Mt. Batur trek from Ubud

Skipping Nusa Penida this time

Looking for some recommendations:

1. Villas in Ubud

We’re a group, so looking for nice 2–3 bedroom villas (preferably central Ubud or slightly scenic but not too far). Any solid recommendations?

2. Waterfalls / places to visit (and timing)

Planning to cover waterfalls around Ubud — which ones are actually worth it and what’s the best time to visit to avoid crowds?

3. Scuba in Gili T

Any good dive centers you’d recommend for beginners/intermediate? Worth doing here vs Bali mainland?

4. Drivers / transport

This is important — any reliable private driver contacts or agencies you’ve personally used?

Also open to any general tips or things you think we shouldn’t miss given this itinerary.
