So I told her to leave it alone. She said the ticket was not issued properly yesterday and that she would do so now.

I looked at my CC and yep, another $75 is pending.


How likely is it that I will get that money back?
That sucks. What a lame customer service experience. IMO you should not have one change fee, let alone two. I guess the good news is now your ticket is fixed.

I would definitely submit a written refund request. You might also try tweeting, people have reported getting better/more immediate responses through that channel.
