Hey @united I paid you $500 + 30,000 miles for an upgrade (and you put me on standby list, and I didn’t get it) How do I get $ & miles back?

Getting a refund is not automatic even though it should be.
Airlines hope for breakage

.@united one would think you would have contacted me or initiated refund already since you know I didn’t get it. Want cash not travel credit

@chrisheuer Hey, Chris. We recommend filing this claim with Refunds so we can return these to you: bit.ly/1qsn6d7. ^AH

Airlines hope for breakage which is where you do not follow up.

Btw, the FTA_DOT can’t help you lol. They’re a government agency that oversees airlines in a similar way the FTC oversees credit bureaus. I bet no one is empowered to even read and reply to your tweet
