Did not see it as was trying to book ticket for next week but after error in card validation,I tried again and paid and then discovered the date had defaulted to yesterday-the day I booked. Customer service would not cancel and rebook tickets for date needed. Did offer 25% back in vouchers but I still lost a lot of money.
