I have been trying to get a resolution to tickets purchased on July 4th and cancelled on July 6. They were cancelled because days after booking the flights, I received notification "due to techinical difficulties" I could not keep the original flight.  Cheapoair expected me to change my flights, increase my layover times by 4 hours, and pay additional fees because the flights are now more costly. 

There was a refund on July 9 followed by a second charge in full. The total amount to be refunded is $2,352.

Over the past 2 days I have called customer service and billing department numerous times to no avail.  The hold times have exceeded 1 hour. When finally speaking to a rep. I have been "diconnected" by them twice. This is unacceptable.  I have been told the cancellation was valid, and I would see a total refund in my account. But the refund was processed and reversed.  All I want is to see the refund, or to be told specifically when the refund will process and to be reassured that there has not been an error.
  
If I do not receive a response to the numerous emails and phone calls within the 24 hour response gaurantee, I will be disputing the charges with my credit card company. Furthermore, I will file complaints with the Better Business Bureau and the NY Attorney General's office.

Ross Bogitch - ERROR!

AUTHOR: Katie B. - (United States of America)

POSTED: Thursday, August 09, 2012

The site does not allow me to change the title of the report.
I have posted that the matter has been resolved.

There are many resources online that reference Ross Bogitch as the Call Center Director.  Apparently, this is no longer the case. Unfortunately, the call center doesn't really like to answer the phone, or return calls.  And there is no direct line to the corporate office.  So this information can't really be verified.  I would remove his name from the title of this report if it was possible.

Resolved!

AUTHOR: Katie B. - (United States of America)

POSTED: Thursday, August 09, 2012

This issue was resolved 100% to my satisfaction.
To anyone having issues with Cheapoair, persistance and patience is key.  I must have spent over 10hours on the phone. But the matter was resolved.
I will not be using the service again, and will be sure to tell my friends and family to avoid the service as well.
