Hi,
This is my first post (apologies if it's in the wrong thread.)
I just want to say I found this site incredibly helpful in planning what was to be a friends 40th Birthday Disney Trip. I would've been leaving later tonight (sad face.)
Anyway...
I purchased a 4 day Park Magic with Waterpark and NBA ticket through Working Advantage. (also bought a Universal pass through them, but this is about Disney.). I wanted to save a few bucks, so I bought 3rd party, with obviously no foresight to what the future would hold.
My friends have been able to get FULL refunds from Disney and Universal, as they bought directly from the Parks. I, on the other hand, have been getting the runaround. Working Advantage say's they're not authorized to perform refunds until they receive authorization from their contractors (or something like that.). One WA rep suggested I contact Disney, since my Disney park tickets contain their own Disney reservation number. I did and was told that my information would be forwarded to a ticketing services rep. I called back a week later and Disney said that they would offer the refund, but Working Advantage would have to initiate it.
So I called WA again. And the rep basically said the same thing that previous reps have said to me.
I'm just extremely annoyed. These parks are not inexpensive, and i have NO IDEA when I'll be heading back down to the Orlando area. It is extremely doubtful I will get there by the 12/15/20 date. And i'd rather just have my money now, when times are tough financially.
I posted to Better Business Bureau and filed a complaint with the Florida State Attorney General today (not sure if that will do anything.). Has anyone had any luck in this area? Or am I just learning my lesson the hard way to never buy 3rd party again?
Best
