    <description>&lt;P&gt;Just had to vent ~ so mad right now!!!&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;I traveled on Continental/United airlines in June - we were delayed 6 hours so they issued us a "credit voucher" for our equal flight ($198).  &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;I decided to use this voucher to travel home as a surprise using this voucher for christmas.&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;Today I was going to redeem it to buy a &lt;STRONG&gt;one way&lt;/STRONG&gt; ticket w/tax, fees was &lt;STRONG&gt;$219&lt;/STRONG&gt;. I almost choked when the amount due was &lt;STRONG&gt;$219.00. (My voucher is worth $198)&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;I called United (after waiting 45 min. on hold) my rep told me the following:&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;$175.00 TO CHANGE TICKET&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;EM&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;$25.00 TO RE-BOOK TICKET&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;I have $00 to apply towards my ticket - WHAT???????&lt;/STRONG&gt; They didn't do me any favor by giving me this "free voucher" they &lt;STRONG&gt;deduct all the surcharges&lt;/STRONG&gt; and then the balance is applied to the NEW ticket.&lt;IMG src="https://community.qvc.com/DesktopModules/ExactTarget/Controls/TextEditor/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/thumbdown.gif" alt="{#emotions_dlg.thumbdown}" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt; I told this guy I would NEVER fly with them again (like he cared he was in India) &lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;For years I've only traveled with Southwest and have had lots of credits/changes and never paid once unless the fare was higher than my credit &amp;amp; I've also changed flights to get credit if the fare came down before my travel.&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt;Guess I'll use this "voucher" for scratch paper and wait to see what SW does in the coming weeks.&lt;/P&gt; &lt;P&gt; &lt;/P&gt;</description>
