Refund not received after timely cancellation

859 votes

You can take legal action for breach of contract, deficiency in service, and unfair trade practice to recover your refund along with compensation for harassment and delay. The matter can be pursued through a legal notice and, if needed, a consumer forum complaint to secure both the refund and damages.

I'm sorry to hear about the frustrating situation you're dealing with. If you’ve cancelled the accommodation within the free cancellation period and have followed up multiple times without getting a refund, there are a few legal avenues you can pursue: Legal Action Send a Formal Demand Letter: If other methods have failed, sending a formal demand letter may be effective. This letter should outline: Your booking details The cancellation and refund request The service provider’s failure to refund A deadline for payment (typically 7-14 days) A statement that legal action will be pursued if payment is not received Compensation for Delay and Harassment Seek Damages: While you may have the right to a refund, claiming compensation for delay or harassment is more complex. Compensation may be possible if you can demonstrate that the delay caused you financial loss, emotional distress, or other consequences. However, such claims are often harder to prove.
