Now we are told Goibibo tried calling us and because of non-contact, they stopped processing this refund.

I find it very strange- one, because my telephone number and my email are the same as on their records at time of booking. If they did not want to call again, they could have used email Esther than unilaterally closing refund for overcharging by Goibibo. Sevindly, if the overcharging refund was worked out by Goibibo, where is the need to call. The universal practice is to refund it into the account eherr the payment came from. Obviously, Goibibo wants to prolong the agony one way or the other, so that the customers get sick of them. In fact, Goibibo does not share any email or contact number of any responsible level officers, if any.

I still feel better sense will prevail, and they should refund at least the amount ehich Goibibo agrees has been overcharged by them... into the account where the payment came from Esther than giving excuses that a call from Goibibo teo months earlier was unanswered. Please remember, customers are not call-centers !
