Fast forward a week and no refund in sight and so called in cleartrip and then was told i should cancel with cleartrip as well in order to start the refund process. This was subsequently done and then they say 500 bucks is charged per passenger for this refund as some sort of payment gateway charges. So bringing it to 2500 bucks in all.
So the airline is willing to refund you fully, Cleartrip also is willing to refund fully also and strangely not take any of of their 'convenience fees', but the bank needs to be paid for this...??? Found this a little strange...!!!
I have never heard of Bank charging anything. Who said this?
From your post, what I am getting is that Cleartrip deducted 500 Rs per passenger with some lame 'Payment Gateway Charges' excuse.
