RideLondon2020

[The Central Scrutinizer]

Yes i know @Dogtrousers, @Racing roadkill and as i have said previously they had to cancel it.I suppose i am still gutted that the only time i got in on the ballot it was cancelled.
I did it four years ago when i did it for charity and if i don't get an entry for the next one(whenever that will be?)i might go down that route.Though at sixty seven time is catching up on me.

I've never got in through on the ballot.

I think yours is the worst possible scenario - get in once only and have it cancelled!

The great north run has been cancelled but they are offering the 55,000 runner refunds or entry for next year.I still don't understand why the ride london organisers could not have offered this?

Clearly they are confident they can run the event unchanged if needs be, while as above, the RLS organisers aren't

I believe it is because they have a number of contracts that run out this year, including with Surrey Council in respect of the roads, and they are likely to need to make changes of some sort to the event next year. Nothing to do with coronavirus.
Shame as the first time I got in via the ballot after trying every year too...

Anyone had their refund yet?

Anyone had their refund yet?

Yes. Had mine last week.

 

[vickster]

Yes. Had mine last week.

Oh hmmm...

 

[The Central Scrutinizer]

Anyone had their refund yet?

Nope

 

[vickster]

Nope

Me neither. I wonder if it’s because I was a deferral from 2019. Will chase next week as they do say the 31st

I didn't think I'd had my refund, but looking through my credit card statements on line, it turns out I have. Unfortunately I can't tell exactly when it happened for the same reason that I missed it in the first place - which is that my bank (in their wisdom) decided to put the transaction date for the refund down as the same date they used for the original payment, so it shows up in a weird place if I try to sort my statements by date. But it's definitely there, so at least I don't have to go chasing it.

I've looked back a few months to April and keep a close eye on my statements (often daily), definitely not had it

Yes i have just looked through my statements and my bank has done the same thing.

 

[vickster]

Ah my CC has done the same so it has hit my account I think?’

Can't seem to find my refund, did it come from Ride London, London Marathon Events or Prudential Ride London? I've searched my online account but can't see it

Mine was listed against the original transaction RL100 injured or similar). It never appeared in July as a payment in (only in statement against 10 July)
