Here is what I know...
Today I called NW about a refund on an award ticket. See this lonely thread: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/Forum35/HTML/006977.html I was specifically asked whether the tax refund should go to the original card or a different one. I once returned a shaver at Sears and had closed the original card that I charged it to, there was no problem whatsoever to get the refund credited to a different card. With this in mind, it's entirely possible to charge one card and have the refund on another. However, as the timeframe between purchase and refund shrinks and the dollar amount goes up, I suspect that scrunity increases by the same. That is if you deal with a clever rep. |
Basically, we refund it back to the original FOP. Even if the account is closed. Apparently, what I was told in training was that the credit card company would sort it out in the end.
Case in point: My trainer said he had charged something on his card, which he later closed. Turned out somehow or other things happened and he wanted a refund. It went back to the original FOP, and the credit card issuer cut him a check and mailed it to him. Not the fastest way, but, it balances everyones books http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif Re: The original question. From my limited ticketing training, I seem to remember there are more than one set of "refund to" boxes if the payment shown is MS (miscellaneous - or multiple forms of payment), which, in your case, would be. Each respective portion gets refunded to your respective credit card, and all is hunky dory http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif Happy Travels! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif Kai ------------------ SkyWest Airlines - your friendly regional carrier and your #1 on-time airline for 2003 so far!
