Hello everyone. I had two FCC's expiring on November 22. One of them for $700 and another for $50. I found a trip from SFO to London for $755 and bought a non refundable economy seat on United. I hadn't seen this thread till now and I just bought the ticket like an hour ago. Am I SOL? I got a new confirmation code and when I try to cancel it says an agent must process it manually. Any ideas or tips on what my options are? Just a bit worried because people on Reddit say this hack doesn't work anymore. I kept getting conflicting info on whether to cancel before or after 24 hours. Any help is appreciated, thanks!
