Very frustrating

After only about a 3 min wait on hold I got a semi-helpful agent. Turns out the reason my payment wouldnt go thru is I was trying to use a discount sale code
for a return trip where the 2nd leg was a date that was blacked out, Instead of stopping the booking process it lets you go all the way to the payment point.
Im pretty sure I have used a discount code on AC where it will let you use it on 1 leg only in the case of a blacked out date on a return trip. WJ wont allow it.
I ended up booking 2 one-ways to get around the problem. BTW the agent was going to charge me the $25 booking fee if he booked it for me. Wouldnt budge
on that. Quoting policy blah blah blah.
