Thanks both. I haven't joined the FB group as in all honesty I was happy waiting just sounded like some people who were cancelled recently were already getting refunds while I was still waiting and wanted to make sure that it wasn't just me in this case I'm lucky I'm only owed a very small amount as was an airmile flight and the airmiles were refunded almost instantly.
That group is a bit of an eye opener to be honest. Utterly disgusting behaviour from Virgin. Thats surely a deliberate decision made at board level to hold on to peoples cash for as long as possible. I genuinely wonder if they will be trading this time next year.
