    Status:
    Resolved
    Bought 2 tickets (Reservation # YJ772E) on Volaris airlines on March 24,2023. Volaris kept making small time changes to the flight times that didn't impact our travel but months later they changed both the time & date & then I had to request a refund as there was a conflict. I responded to their email which asked whether I wanted a refund or a credit and I indicated refund. Volaris then stated that since it was over 8 months since I made the purchase, they could not refund my **************** ending in 4153. They asked me for all of my personal bank information including account number, swift ***** ************** from the bank to do a bank transfer. And they wanted this information directly from the bank because my bank had changed names from ************* to Old Second. I reluctantly provided everything they asked for but I worried about the security of my bank information. They then asked for a document to be signed by my husband to transfer his rights since his name was on one of the tickets. They also wanted a copy of his identification. I had him sign & I sent in the transfer of rights document plus reluctantly a copy of his passport. In conjunction, I was reaching out to *********** & initially they credited my account for both the tickets ($686.60) & the seats ($102.60) but then they put the $686.60 debit back on my account because I missed a message from them sent via their website. I have a trail of emails between *************************** showing all of their requests for information & all of my responses, including the bank information I provided.After months of Volaris asking for information, which I have provided, I have yet to receive my $686.60 refund. I'm hoping you can help. Thank you.

    My husband, my 8 month old daughter, and I booked this flight many months in advance to take a vacation to ***********, MEX - one of his favorite cities - as we both prepared to go back to work full time the day after returning from this vacation.On the flight there #Y4907 departing Thursday, March 6 at 5:30pm, we got to the airport and were in the loading bridge about to get on the plane when they had everyone disembark. After waiting an hour, they cancelled the flight. We had to re-book for the same flight the next day and did not get the lost night in our accommodations reimbursed. They offered us a $200 voucher which was only good for one month.On our return flight #Y4906 returning on Sunday, March 24 at 1:26pm. We arrived at the airport to discover that they had bumped us off our flight (along with a number of other families waiting in the same line). They did not have any flights to ******* until the next day or two days later. I was starting a new job on Monday. The only way we could make it back in time was to take a flight to ******, #Y4950 departing at 8:14pm on Sunday, March 24 and rent a car. We did not get back home until 3am on Monday morning with our infant and mere hours before I had to get on the train for day one at my new position.Volaris offered us another voucher, which we declined, asking them - at minimum - to simply reimburse us for our rental car cost. They declined to do this, saying all they could offer was a voucher. At this point we were attempting to resolve the issues with our return flight, the departing flight voucher expired.So we ended up with our flights on both end causing travel delays of 24 hours and 12 hours, respectively with absolutely no type of compensation from the airline. All this happened while traveling with a very small child, something that added additional costs and sleeplessness due to the disrupted eating and sleeping schedules.
