Finally heard from TLC
Received a phone call this morning from "Nelson", no employee number, purportedly from TLC marketing. He said that there was no promotional availability left and that TLC was renegotiating with the airlines, which might take awhile. He offered 3 choices:
1. Wait for availability. (Hmmmm, that is what I have been doing???)j
2. Elect to receive $125 cash reimbursement. I found this insulting as the flight has more value, even if I have to pay the fee others have.
3. Elect to receive $150 in restarurant.com dining certificate credit. It could be used at multiple restaurants and would be good for 1 year.
I told Nelson I wanted to wait for availability, and he said a booking agent would contact me within 2 weeks to resubmit destinations and dates. I made him promise I would hear from a booking agent by September 15, 2008. I said I would call him back at 617-788-9600 x629 if I didn't hear from a booking agent by then.
Time will tell....
