I did the same routine as everyone else and rejected the travel voucher, but never heard anything back since. However I did contact chat a few days ago to reconfirm that I was rejecting the offer and wanted to know when I would be refunded. I contacted them again yesterday and was told I would be issued a refund in due course, and then this afternoon I received the email confirming the refund confirmation. I'll now await payment to go back to my bank. I don't know if me contacting them twice in a week and getting that email today was a coincidence, but I would suggest people on here to keep in constant contact with them until you receive the same. I'll update you when I get the refund.

I know of people who got chargebacks the very 1st week of flight cancellations, then the banks put up a block when RA tried to get EU backing to offer credit notes. When RA agreed to issue me with a refund I didn't try again for a chargeback but do know the banks started them again

No reply from them for the past 8 weeks, today I got onto their chat and managed to contact a human rep in 5 minutes. Asked for a refund again, apparently it's only now they've processed my request, I can expect an email to confirm within 24 hours. Then hopefully I will finally get my refund. I've another problem however with an upcoming trip to the UK in mid-July - the event we were going to has been cancelled so I've no intention of going, however the flight change cost is almost the price of the tickets so not worth it. Will I have to try and claim off my travel insurance (I took out a policy in February before the pandemic)?

On May 8th, the Government announced a special State-Guaranteed Refund Credit Note for holidays impacted by COVID-19. The Refund Credit Note safeguards your money and allows Click&Go the time required to reclaim your money from the various suppliers. On June 19th, the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport made the necessary legal provisions "The Refund Credit Note has been established by the Transport (Tour Operators and Travel Agents) Act 1982 (Disbursements from Fund) Regulations 2020 (Statutory Instrument 218 of 2020)". Your Refund Credit Note is being issued in 2 parts, this part, part 1 covers all the non-flight elements as we have not yet received the credit back from the airline for your flights. As soon as we have the credit back for your flights we will issue you a 2nd Refund Credit Note, the 2 combined should equal the full value of your holiday excluding travel insurance if purchased. Our apologies that we have to issue the Refund Credit Note in 2 parts but credits from airlines are badly delayed and we do not want to delay the refund process any further. This Refund Credit Note covers the following: It is valid for 24 months from the date of issue You can use it to book another holiday with Click&Go for travel in 2020, 2021 or 2022 You can use it for a number of bookings The people named on the original booking do NOT need to be on the new booking, so you can transfer it The Refund Credit Note is State-Guaranteed If you don't use in 9 months, you can get your cash back To redeem your Refund Credit Note and to book your new holiday please email clickandgorefunds@clickandgo.com requesting a call back and one of our sales team will be in touch within 24hours Yours sincerely, The Refunds Department Click&Go

Mad isn't it, they've probably had your money for so long that 9 months with interest would be better... ; ) Just a little question...Is it 9 months from when they issue the voucher or 9 months from when they cancelled ...?
lensman wrote: » Either way I have always requested cash refunds & always reminded them of EU law, a law that Shane Ross failed to get changed for vouchers, I have contacted Mr Ross seeking his assistance & replied to C&G informing them of this whilst restating my cash refund request,...we'll see what happens

Had flights for Spain booked (2 separate booking references) - The booking ref booked after the original one has received its voucher but the first booking ref hasn't yet. One other question - The Ts and Cs on the voucher email said it can be transferred into any name but it doesn't seem to be a possibility from what I can see anywhere when trying. Cheers!

Deise Vu wrote: » Anyone have any experience with getting Car Hire back from Ryanair? I had a flight booked for early June. It was cancelled by Ryanair on May 17th and I applied for a refund. I cancelled the Car Hire at the same time as I was allowed to do under the Hire terms and conditions. Although I got acknowledgments from Ryanair that I would be refunded both amounts the only subsequent correspondence I got was an offer of a voucher for the Flights only. The voucher is no good to me as the Missus will not budge this year nor next. I sent Ryanair a registered letter as is suggested elsewhere as a follow up. Last night I got an email informing me that: "As per interpretive guidelines on EU passenger rights, announced by the EU commission on cancellations caused due to COVID 19, this is now classified as an extraordinary circumstance and compensation does not apply under EU261/2004." Just to clarify, I did not ask for compensation, only my money back. Is the small Claims court my best bet at this stage? There's nearly €1,400 involved which comes under the €2K limit.I'm particularly annoyed over the Car Hire even though it is only about €500 of the total as Ryanair would only be entitled to a small percentage of it if they hadn't cancelled the booking.

Today they emailed me reminding me that I had a voucher to spend OR apply for refund - I'm presuming my refund request still stands and I don't have to apply again? I suppose applying again would be no harm? Not expecting refund for a long time yet but definitely did not choose the voucher.

Is there a number or email address? Don't use social media. They were booked amon PTSB debit card. Worth going straight to charge back option or making an effort to contact AL first?
