How long for a refund?
So I noticed that I earned points for a stay at the beginning of the month that I had cancelled. Uh oh. I checked my credit card, and sure enough, I'd been charged what looked like a no-show fee.
I called the Plat line on Monday and got transferred to whatever desk handles these things. They confirmed that They could see that I had cancelled the ressie, and said that my credit card would be credited in one to two billing cycles.
Is that typical? Might it really take 30-60 days to post the credit? Or is that just a worst-case scenario? It sure doesn't take them 60 days to post the charges...
