hotel booking novotel darwin
*SOLVED

2

Booked the 6th September instead of the 5th for Novotel Darwin. Contacted webjet online chat last Friday to change booking to 5th. (refer to copy of conversation below) Online chat said I needed to contact the hotel and gave me the phone number. I called the hotel -they had vacancies to make the change but said it had to be changed by webjet as it was booked through webjet. webjet said they could only cancel and could not refund the money. I asked that could webjet contact the hotel and ask the booking be changed from the 5th to 6th. Webjet online chat agreed to do this if the hotel agreed and that I would be informed within 48 hours. It is now Monday and I have not received any notification. The booking remains unchanged. Its says no refund on the rate but nothing about not being able to change the booking to another day. I do not want a refund - just to change the date-there are plenty of rooms for both days and I am happy to pay any difference. Can you please follow up?
