      With an emergency service like CAA, a consumer has the right to expect service for their payment. I purchased the membership on the night before a tow was needed, but counting on the need of their customers, they sell the membership with a delay to activating your membership. This preys on a person already in a stressful situation and forces them to cough up more than the cost of the membership to have an activation expedited. Why are they able to process a payment for a membership immediately but then give no reason for the delay in activation of membership? It is an unfair policy preying on need during an already costly situation. It's unethical. And I think as a policy this ought to be illegal. Are business ethics just a dream? I asked their reps for a justification for this practice and they could give none.

      On Nov 21, my sister and I had engaged CAA to plan a trip to Fiji and Australia. I had requested that CAA organize all my flights and only my sister's flight from Fiji to Australia. I had also asked them to book the resort in Fiji and the hotel in Australia along with transportation as required. My sister's portion to pay was **** dollars. We assumed that was her flight, accommodation and transportion. We shared accommodation so the cost was half. Upon leaving Fiji for Australia, we discovered that my sister's flight was never booked. She ended up having to pay for the last flight out of Fiji which was a first class ticket for $**** FIJI. This was the only option available to her.
      When I called CAA to investigate, the response was that it was my responsibility to discover their mistake and "too bad, so sad". I asked for a breakdown of costs so I could see if there was a flight included in what she was charged for as **** dollars was very high for what we recieved without a flight. I was told that the tour company they dealt with does not provide a breakdown. So I have no way to see what my sister paid for as CAA refuses to provide it. Resolution for me would be a detailed breakdown of the cost my sister paid to see what exactly we paid for. If we were severely overcharged or they forgot to book the flight but charged it, I want a refund. Such poor customer service. All they had to do is provide a detailed breakdown of what she paid and I wouldn't be going the route of a complaint.

      On Friday August 5/22 at 4pm my RV had a tire problem and had to be pulled over on a dangerous stretch of highway in Chilliwack, BC. A CAA agent sent my vehicle to a ******** that was unequipped to service my vehicle. She could have called an checked. It had to be towed to another location and was not looked at until Monday morning. This ********** cost me a considerable sum of money in hotels, cabs, etc. They refuse to even address the matter. I now want a full refund of my 2022 CAA membership dues as well as the $600 trip interruption reimbursement asap. Receipts were provided via mail to CAA over a month ago.

      Good day,

       

      Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

       

      Mr. ****** was in contact with us on Aug 9, 2022, for the same reason and was advised to submit a claim in writing. Which we never heard back.

       

      We will have someone from our member relations team contact Mr. ****** again to offer the same.

       

      Thank you,

      ****** ******** *******


      On August 9 I was in a state of disarray due to the disastrous situation CAA had put me in due to extremely poor and unacceptable service. I'm so sorry if I may not have remembered as I was scrambling at great expense to myself.

      I look forward to their call.




      Sincerely,
