Unexpected early conversion to "ticketed"
Yesterday at 3:45 PM I put a simple RT itinerary on 7-day fare lock. Today at 11:45 AM the reservation somehow automatically ticketed -- out of the blue I received the confirmed itinerary and receipt email. I logged into .bomb and, indeed, I see it as "ticketed and confirmed."
Has this happened to anyone? I dread having to call and explain, and thus try to 1) refund and 2) re-reserve and 3) re-lock at the same time for the same fare.
