falang07 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 I am having unbelievable difficulties in getting the airport tax refunded for a few flights I did not take last year. I have gone through the tax refund process and even after several reminders and complaints, the money still was not wired to my SCB account. Every time I complain they respond that "Based from the system log, we were in the midst of processing your airport tax refund request. Kindly wait for our reply and thank you for your patience. We hope that you will grant us the opportunity to prove there are better experiences to have with us." I keep getting this response for a few months already. Anyone else having similar problems? Seems like they would like to keep those money and simply hope people will get tired and just give up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mario2008 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Inform them how long you have been waiting now and that you will refer the case to the consumer protection agency if you do not get your money back in 14 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mario2008 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Refunds through a creditcard can take time. Creditcard companies seem to take their time with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davehowden Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 I was surprised to see that they do not refund the VAT, only the SERVICE CHARGE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
