    Flight Centre refunds for cancelled flights

    Oh bugger, but, I have just got off the phone with Amex travel insurance, aka Chubb, & will submit a claim for the $1700 minus $200 in due course & see what happens. Mind you BYO keeps on about a 12week delay in refunds, wouldn't it be funny if they do it immediately in this case ! Thanks to...

    Thanks to Mattg for the ACCC link, "slipping back to their old ways is an understatement". We paid $7605.83 for tickets, BNE/KEF on QF & AY metal, to BYOjet back in Feb this year. The locator was <redacted>, BYO <redacted>. If I had known at that time that it was associated with Flight...

    Credits or refunds on unused travel insurance

    It would appear it is best not to use a "big name" company. I submitted my claim for unused travel insurance to ALLIANZ back in March when APT pulled the plug on a trip. Got the usual auto response saying they will get back to me in 10 days & here we are 3 months later with zero info/action...

    Frankly, would you trust an insurance company, (a necessary evil), let alone one that has done a deal with a credit card company. I could have relied on my credit card in the past , BUT, always paid out for a "real" policy. Even then you have to fight tooth & nail whether it is Cerberus (the...
