Good News! I called Southwest Customer Service this morning and the representative was able to change my reservation back to my originally chosen flight with no fees to me. It pays to call multiple times until you get someone who has ability to help you. Thank you Southwest Airlines! I still LOV you!

Thanks I didn't realize that this was not a Southwest response board. The plot thickens on this. My original flight that I was bumped off of, now has availability at a much higher fare. I called Customer Service tonight and was told she couldn't do anything as I already made a change to the ticket and the "waiver" was no longer available. (I made the change because I only had 3 days to do so). So she suggests I send a message to Southwest from the "Contact Us" page. I'm not letting this one go as I had a legitimate ticket which they changed and now I can't get my original itinerary back.

First of all let, me say loud and clear that I am a HUGE fan of Southwest! However, I am disappointed with what has happened to me. On 12/11/2020, I booked a one-way flight from Denver to Milwaukee using Rapid Reward Points for flight #2852 scheduled on 3/13/2021. On 1/27/2021 I received an email from Southwest that the flight number and timing had changed from what I originally had chosen. The new travel times were fine with me. I believe this change was made as a result of Southwest consolidating flights. Now on 2/4/2021 I received an email from Southwest saying that my itinerary was changed yet again, to the morning flight that same day. That flight time doesn't meet my schedule needs. I called Southwest today and was told that I was bumped as the flight was overbooked. Given that I booked this flight almost two months ago, I don't understand why I was chosen to be bumped. Are you bumping me because I booked this flight with Rapid Rewards points? It doesn't feel like the Rapid Rewards Program is being very loyal to me a dedicated customer (referred to as family on your site).
