Yeah me too...waiting till later in May.I originally made an appointment for 4th shot for next Thursday. Then I spoke with a friend who said it had to be 140 days after my last one in Ottawa (unless you go earlier with informed consent). Did the calculation and cancelled that appointment. I will look for one for May 3rd or later as soon as those dates open up.
The flight discounts were the only reason I was holding onto the card. They did away with the lounge pasees last year and I get a lot of the same coverages with another CC so I guess I'll be parting ways with the BMO W/E M/C before my next renewal.
Don't know, but i made the appointment anyway! If they turn me away I'll just go shopping (the clinic is in the mall ) The website has changed since last night though and now says "must be 60 at time of appointment" if I decide to go to any of the drop in clinics, but if I fill the form out without my Healthcard and using my actual birthdate it didn't say no. I figure nothing ventured nothing gained, right?
YES, the entire family is extremely disappointed in the bank staff for letting Mom not only take that much money out but that they let it go as cash and from a fricking BUSINESS account!!!! It's a small town, they've been using that bank for over 35 years and everyone knows her by sight so they took her ID and the fact that knew her as good enough. Of course because of confidentiality they won't actually talk to any of us without her there and she just wasn't clearheaded enough to do that yesterday. I tried REALLY hard to let the local OPP department know that the scam is active in our area again but they don't care because no money actually changed hands <sigh>
I get many of these calls at work.When they call I say
Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello ,,,they eventually give up and hang up.
Sometimes I say sorry my mommy isn't home right now.....
Damn shame what they do to people.
My sister has such fun with them when they call her work. She actually asked one person how they could live with themselves scamming people out of their money and how they could face their children. It is not like when they call your house that they know where you live - here they are calling her work so no idea where she works. She is currently the only one working in the office so when they call her and she has her fun with them, she will run around and answer the other lines when they ring. I know she needs a life.When they call I say
Hello Hello Hello Hello Hello ,,,they eventually give up and hang up.
Sometimes I say sorry my mommy isn't home right now.....
Damn shame what they do to people.

The only thing I see for Foodland and Sobeys is they have now increased the cash in 95 miles get 35 miles when it used to be 25 miles. I haven't perused the ad yet.Looking through Foodland/Metro/and Sobeys Flyers for Airmiles deals and not coming up with much this week.
Anyone see something I don't?

I had the exact same thing happen to me. I had 2 separate bookings which were refunded weeks apart and both times I had to call the special number to get the cash portion refunded to my credit card.I seem to come on here, read some new posts and then disappear for weeks at a time, and it sounds like I'm not the only one.
However, if you are like me also, and still have outstanding refunds from flights you were supposed to take in April 2020 (or similar dates) please, I hope this can save you some time or headache.
My saga:
Obviously trip April 2020 was cancelled. Flights had been redeemed via AM + $320 on a credit card. As we might all remember, flights were being offered as "vouchers" and not refunds. So we accepted our voucher. (Side note but still part of the overall saga, somehow they put in a new flight date, so we ended up appearing to have flights booked for Feb. 2021 that I didn't know about until Air Canada called me at work one day and was like, hey are you going to comfirm your flight to Ft Lauterdale next week and I was like uhhhhh).
AM cancelled those flights and returned us to "voucher" status again and then Air Canada finally gave in and said people can get refunds, not just vouchers, so AM was supposed to process all refunds.
(Several years or maybe only 6 ish months go by, who knows how time works now a days...)
You all start posting success stories (some with headaches, I remember) about refunds showing up. AM first, then cash. Great! I wait... patiently at first... I reach out. I get the party line of "we're slowly processing everyone, please be patient". I wait some more. I get the email saying "oh sorry we said everyone would be processed by this time, OOPS guess not". I wait. FINALLY in Feb. 2022 I receive this email:

I get excited and check my AM account, and sure enough there's the AM!
I go check my credit card (the one I used) and nothing. Okay, let's give them time for that part. I wait. I call or chat in March "hey it's been a month, no cash refund, any update?" I get "oh, I see your AM refund, please wait as it can take up to 2 billing cycles. So, now... it's finally after 2 cycles but no money. So I call (while on hold I open chat and get someone). Turns out, I need to call... my "credit card information needs updating". Uhhh. What? They have the same info as was used to book... I checked, it's the same card, hasn't expired in between... So I call the different, special number that chat lady gave me. Guess what? If AM has your credit card info but it's been longer than 18 months, they toss it for security reasons but no one told me that in all the inquiries I made about these flights I booked back in June 2019 but took WAY more than 18 months to process my refund anyways, so UGH.
I gave her my same credit card info and the money should be back in... 4-6 weeks.
As the kids say: TLDR (too long, didn't read) version: If you're waiting on the cash part, check that AM has the details of a credit card to be able to put the money on.
At least with the AM hotels booking I'm making, when I cancel, the money and AM are returned nearly immediately (provided I made sure to book one with a good cancellation policy, whch I always do).
Holy smokes!!!! I’ve got a Sobeys offer for 350 miles for a $125 spend. Guess I know where I’ll be shopping this week.
