Virgin options what did you do?

[Jakey Neverland]

Did anyone get a reply when trying to book further out, on the phone they wont allow it so just wondering if the online form they are?

[Kelly1234]

Yes. I got a reply! Basically telling me that the flights I want (30/09/2022-15/10/2022) aren’t available for booking. The usual reply that flights aren’t released until 331 days etc! I don’t know why they have those dates available on the calendar. They didn’t the other day! It was worth a try!

No reply for me yet.

I am going to do nothing for a, while. I have watsapp that state if i take a voucher I can book upto April 2023 with no extra cost.. But when you convert it the terms are very different to what I was told.. So I don't trust them.

Maybe soneone else try watsapp see what thry say about booking outside of 11 months and what to do?!

[Shani]

I did, all I got was auto replies, press 1/2/3 etc. That was on 30/8. It ended with "if you need to speak to us we'll contact you within 7 days". Hmmm... they haven't!

[gavvy]

Try again. Say you are going within 7 days.. Only way of getting a reply out of them. Even then it takes ages

Had a chase email today about my cancellation for VS74 on the 21st.

[gavvy]

I had a chase too, they putting pressure to take the voucher I think.

[SteveyJ]

I'll be taking the refund before I take the voucher.

I did nothing. Had a conversation via Twitter and said want to book for October 2022 and basically told get in touch around November when flights released.
If they don't honour request I'll get refund and then book BA.
