THIS CAN BE USEFUL TO YOU OR SOMEONE YOU KNOW
I stumbled upon this investment on Facebook, enticed by the promises of profitability. After investing $300, I saw a 40% increase in just three days. Feeling confident, I upped the ante with $5,000 more.
A week later, I successfully withdrew $2,500. However, as I continued to invest with better offers, the company's responsiveness dwindled. Despite my attempts to reach out via calls and emails, there was no response. When I reported the issue to the police, they were unable to assist, as the company operated in a region beyond their reach.
Just when I was losing hope, an inspector called me on the same day and recommended I reach out to Asset Recover Net. Following their advice, within five days, they recovered my entire loss of $290,000 and my portfolio, which had nearly reached a million dollars during the recovery.
So, if you've been scammed, don't sweat it. Hit up Asset Recover Net on

Trust me, they're the heroes you need.

You may not like it, but every airline treats the situation the same way. The tickholder is assumed to be the owner of any funds tied to the ticket -- regardless of who paid for the ticket.

About contact us. When I click on that, the best I get is a chatbot. How do I actually get ahold of someone to resolve this? Maybe that's the better question:)

To add to the other post; You can get on the standby list on the app the day of, if you wait until the airport then you will be way down the priority list and doubtful you will get standby; If you really want to change, look at spending a little more and booking the I wanna get away plus fare and you can make same day confirmed changes instead of standby, but the seats still need to be available; This means if there is room on the flight, you can book it on that day starting at midnight the day of, and not wait for standby list to clear. Standby or Confirmed change, you will lose your seating position from check in so don't purchase any early bird check in, you will lose that too. If you have small children, you can still do the family boarding; If you really want a specific flight, with 4 people at peak time, and if you are checking luggage you may want to just consider getting the flight you want, but if you are ok with the cheaper flight if that is what you end up with, it is a great way to save money;

A quick follow up to this - corporate followed up with me and took care of the original problem, which I expected would happen. They were very friendly and helpful.
There really isn't a solution that can be applied to the main complaint because they can't undo my wasted time and frustration. I hope Southwest starts to realize that when customers complain it is typically when they feel they aren't being heard or helped. This area needs great improvement.

You’ll also lose the transferability from WGA+ but if you fly often then you probably don’t worry about using travel credits either.

You are correct that the message is linked to a flight change. If the flight has changed, and it does not work for you, you can receive a refund instead of transferring the funds to someone else. (You can also change your flight with no charges as long as it is the same origin/destination). However, if you want to keep the funds and just transfer it then you will see that when you deposit the credit into your RR account. You will go to the credit section and it will identify it as transferrable. If you want a refund, I believe you need to call and have them issue the refund:
Here is their policy.
If you decide not to travel as a result of a Southwest-initiated schedule change, you can choose to either a) receive a method-of-payment refund or b) hold the value of the ticket as a flight credit that you can use to buy a future flight. Learn more about refunds and flight credit.

Yeah not a good deal. You only get 1 cent per point plus you pay taxes.
Using points only gets you over about 1.3 cents per point, plus no taxes.
Nope.

Also the wifi is very spotty so don't plan on any mission critical work. If it doesn't work during your flight I believe you can ask for a refund.

Riddle me this....
When I occupied a seat that was "saved" and told the person saving the seat that it was a great subject for a book but not the way it works on Southwest, why didn't the flight attendant have me removed?

Perhaps we got bad information, but Chase told us they would notify Southwest 6 to 8 weeks after we met the threshold. I hope you are right. Thank you for responding.

File a written dispute with your credit card carrier. State your case and I'm 95% certain you will be compensated.
Southwest should also kick in here as they are lending their name to an organization that has more complaints than there are grains of sand on the seashore.

So for example if you earn the $4k by May 12th, but your statement closes on May 31st, you would likely see it in your account on Jun 1 or 2nd.
I don't recall though, did this promotion have a specific time period for companion pass? I recall some promotions the companion pass was only good for specific months. If this is the case you may not see companion pass until that time period, I have not had experience with this situation so someone else may be able to advise you better.
There is also usually a time limit to earn the $4k spending which might be three months? So earning it cumulatively in either one, two, or three months for example.
Usually you would get a confirmation email "you've made it" or something to that effect, but the pass itself won't show up until the specified period. If that was immediately then it would be there to nominate a companion, if it was July for example the pass won't show up in your account until 7/1 at midnight:01. This can be a little inconvenient if you are flying later in the day 7/1 but book your ticket now and add the companion then.

So with same day change you can make the change starting at midnight so you could set an alarm and right at midnight make the change. As long as a seat exists you can get it regardless of if it’s anytime only available and as long as your destination doesn’t change and date you can pick any available flight connection city can change (I’ve changed to different connection cities just to grab lunch/dinner before)
Keep in mind should the day come and there are no later flights you will be stuck with the awful flight so be ready just in case
As mentioned you will lose your boarding position so I wouldn’t buy EB check in as it won’t apply to your new flight however you could still upgrade to the A1-15 if you want after making the same day change if it’s available

Ironically, after flying all my life, I prefer open seating.
I've flown a lot of times with an assigned seat. On occasion, I board the plane and there is somebody sitting in my seat. I tell them they are in the wrong seat. They get mad, check their boarding pass, check their phone, drag down their carry on from the overhead and go off to find their correct seat in a huff. Sheesh, it makes you feel like you've done something wrong.
When I was younger, I always liked a window seat. Just sit and watch the world go by below. Now that I'm older, I prefer sitting toward the back of the plane in an aisle seat near the lavatory. Yes, mother nature makes the rules.
With Southwest, I check in for the flight 24 hours before. I always get the A group. When the plane boards, I just wait and board with the C group, walk to the back of the plane and get an aisle seat.
On long flights, I do fly first class. What a way to go. Bottomless champagne glass, hot towels, hot nuts, hot meal. You get treated like royalty!

Thank you all so much!
I created Southwest accounts for them to get Rapid Rewards# and then purchased new tickets as "get away plus tickets" in their name and then cancel the new plus tickets and the credits because transferrable!!!

Sorry for the capitals, but I am obviously livid. And this is happening live right now at 1:25am. SFO - DEN, flight delayed for over 3 hours, then we’re sitting on the tarmac for over an hour, and while driving back to the gate, the pilot says there are too many flights coming in and out and our flight cannot leave and we have to rebook. We’re still on the plane, waiting for a spot at the gates to open! They said they’ll rebook, but we don’t want to go anymore, as we have a baby and this is way too difficult on her/us. What are our options and can we be compensated for anything, as we prepaid for our hotel and car rental?
When you get to talk to someone, or if you are automatically re-booked then you'll have to contact Southwest Contact Southwest Customer Service and let them know that you want to be refunded instead of rebooked, and if you are automatically rebooked let Southwest be the one to cancel it and refund, don't cancel it yourself if the only option is Travel Credit.
If you are starting from SFO consider trying OAK which has a lot of routes including to Denver with 5 or 6 non-stops per day.
SFO should still have 3-4 per day though - and if you are there at 2 a.m. now just take the 5 a.m. option first thing, obviously I'm reading this late but I hope you were able to get on that flight after all.

For a VERY LONG TIME the rule has been that if you no show a flight, you forfeit the value of your ticket. It's the same for every airline.
Points tickets used to be refundable in this instance but I believe that is changed as well.
The only exception is Business Select flights that would be automatically made into travel credits, other fare types will be forfeit - including any remaining legs of your same itinerary so if you no-show the outbound trip your return trip may also be affected.
