Topic Wiki

This is the thread where you can ask any random question you have. Feel free to ask even the most basic questions that you otherwise might be embarrassed to ask. This is the thread for beginners, so veterans here will treat you nicely. Ask a beginner's Q in some other threads and no guarantee of that same treatment. ;)
People here want to help, so just have some patience, follow the tips below and hopefully someone will help you when they have a chance.

If you looking for a particular thread you once saw and can't find it, this is not the place to ask. Check out Help Me Find It and ask there.

How to ask a question in this thread:
Click the blue reply button at the top or bottom of the page, type your question, and click post!

Some helpful tips for eliciting answers from other members:
- Keep your question short and precise. No one wants to read a megillah.
- The more questions you ask in one post, the less likely any will be answered. People are willing to answer a question or two, but if you ask all the questions that apply to your particular issue, you're expecting to be spoonfed. Members don't like holding out the spoon, so ask accordingly.

Don't see an option for being charge for a cancelled trip. She wasn't charged a cancelation fee. Trip says cancelled but it still deducted 9.09 from her 15 Amex credit. Anyway to send them text, email or ect?

"Help" in app. Be prepared for lots of arguing back & forth.

Nothing listed for being charged when trip is cancelled. Just pick anything?

What makes you say that? I have never had an issue with them.

You could try "I want a refund" "I had a different issue with my charge"
I've tried different things

It's usually on top of the contacts page. You should also be able to hold down the contacts you want until they're highlighted and click new group in top right. (This is all android.)
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

On android, click the three dots in top right corner, first option should be 'new group'.
