Why not just periodically monitor your credit card on-line?

Why kind of ticket did you cancel? If it was a non-refundable ticket you will likely have a credit and not a refund. UA does not send "vouchers" for canceled tickets, the value is associated with the original ticket number. When you want to use it you either go on-line and change the original reservation or call and reference the original ticket number. What did the agent say the current status of the ticket it? I believe it's pretty clear if it's been refunded, pending refund, or if it's been canceled and is available for future use.
