I decided last year to move my business to Protected Trust Services as I knew local independent Travel Agents that were successfully running their businesses without limitations being a franchisee often brings. I do not regret it for one moment. It is a different way of working but the freedom it gives me is outstanding and I would not change back now! In particular, India in the business support team has been welcoming and very helpful when I needed support learning a different system than I have been used to over my long career in travel. Thank you to everyone in PTS membership support.

Caroline has helped me a lot with any queries I’ve had. I am very thankful to her for her patience as the system can be hard to navigate sometimes without training. I know I can go to her at anytime and she will help. Much appreciate

I am really enjoying my time with PTS and they're so supportive and helpful with everything. India Mayer has been there consistently with my questions and I cannot thank her and the team enough.

Have had many interactions with the team and each one has been super positive. Always helpful and trying to find solutions. Most recently I’ve been working with Caroline on something who has been super forthcoming and proactive in finding a solution to support our business. She’s super knowledgeable and approachable which always helps! Also Jodie, who has been resolving something for us and she has communicated on time, with updates but also been proactive in supporting which is always welcome! Thank you team!

We've been using Protected Trust Services since late last year, most of my dealings have been with India Mayer, she is very professional, friendly, and helpful to me whilst I'm learning to navigate the system, I'm very satisfied with everything.

The entire team has been fantastic from start to finish. I deal a lot with India Mayer, and she is an absolute superstar. She’s always incredibly helpful, whether it’s admin support, helping me understand the system, or answering general questions. She’s very prompt, efficient, and a real pleasure to work with.
I couldn’t recommend PTS highly enough.

I was looking to set up my own independant travel agents. I have been in the trade for 6 years. I am looking at my options so customers know their payments are safe and my company can be trusted. I called and spoke to grant who answered my questions that I didn't need atol or abta depending on what I'm selling. After going backwards and forwards in conversation that I'm independant he grasps it and arranges a video call. During the video call I'm being asked how much money I have in the bank and talked about buying atol an atol license which on the website is under £1000. Which was my whole oint in looking at being a member. Asks how many people I have in my team. I am starting a new company and to be an independant travel agent. I was using the opportunity to know more about how things work before putting my company together. I'm still in the process of recruiting. To be told I'm trying to run before I can walk. Was a very disappointing and insulting way to start a conversation. I am an entreprenuer as a Business owner the money and staff is my problem. I was enquiring what services you offer. Now your trying to crush my hopes of having my own travel agents. Thanks for nothing. I was going to request to speak to someone else but I have gone with another company as I got no assistance with the offer of another agent.

When we first approached PTS we had our concerns and were cautious in going forward, however to our delight upon first contact we quickly learned that we were dealing with not only with a professional company but a company which employed normal people! Communication was excellent and Grant guided us through the application process seamlessly.
For any new companies out there thinking of starting up don't hesitate and get in touch with PTS, you won't regret it. We give this firm a big thumbs up!

I’ve recently moved my travel business to Protected Trust Services after many years working within consortia, and the experience so far has been outstanding.
Yesterday I spent a full day at the Sunderland office meeting the team and being introduced to the systems, led by Lianne. The welcome was warm, the approach was open, and every question was met with patience, knowledge, and genuine care. Nothing felt rushed or transactional. The team were approachable, grounded, and clearly invested in doing things properly.
What stood out most was the pride and belief they have in what they offer. The passion for protecting both businesses and clients is obvious, and it shows in how they operate day to day. I left feeling supported, informed, and confident in the decisions I’ve made for my business.
Knowing my clients are fully protected, and that I have a responsive, capable team behind me, gives me real confidence as I move forward. I’m excited about what comes next and feel certain my business is in the right hands with Protected Trust Services.

Grant was great when we first enquired with PTS, he took the time to answer all our questions and there was no pressure to sign up. Since then, the onboarding process with Vanessa, Lianne, and India has been excellent. The team is very supportive, quick to respond, and great at following up.

The support is the best feature, as well as prompt payout after the listed trips.
I did struggle initially with what is rather a quirky system; but I realise it’s organising many other different types of travel agency than our own.

Charlotte Fletcher was my trainer once onboarding (which Vanessa Ross supported me on) They were both extremely helpful, knowledgable and very quick to respond to my queries. Would highly recommend PTS if you want to run your travel business on your own terms.

PTS have been excellent so far! Super easy to use platform and always on hand to answer any queries. Special thanks to Grant Lawson, Vanessa Ross and Charlotte Fletcher for making the onboarding and training smooth sailing.

Wild About Travel has recently registered with PTS. Grant and Veronica were efficient and helpful in getting us signed up. India has been equally helpful in delivering training to use the software. We can report a really positive experience. Thanks PTS team!
