Re: [RC] Ride Manager Keeps Money - Mike Lewis

I'm sorry to hear of this.  I've had the same thing happen to me several
times due to changes of plans at work despite giving the boss advance
notice. Unfortunately, work won't refund my $$, that's the nature of the
job.

I try not to pre-register anymore unless making it very clear to the ride
manager beforehand that I may be subject to the military's whim on Friday
evening.  Late Friday afternoons is when we tend to do our squadron/wing
meetings....

Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do when a ride manager
says that they will refund your entry fee's but then never does and
doesn't return calls?

Matt Medeiros and his wife put on the StageCoach Ride (W) last
November  and strongly encouraged paid pre entries. I pre paid for two
days but only ended up riding one day. Cindy Crook on the other hand
paid for 2 people for 3 days and is out over $500. She called and told
Matt she couldn't make it. He assured her too that he would send a
refund check. Matt has originally told us both that he would send the
money but has never and ignores our calls and emails. I wonder who
else he owes money too?

What do we do? I'm out $95. and that is easy to absorb but I sure feel
sorry for Cindy. That's a lot of money. This incident sure makes me
never to want to pre-pay again.

Lauren
