As most of you know, my trip to Cuba did not go so well and part of my drama was having my plane ticket stolen and having to buy a new one, well today 1 day short of the 2 month anniversary of my trip I have got a cheque in my hands for $594.00, which these days will come in real handy ( House,Baby, car for the wife). It was suppose to be 694.00 but the hit me with a 100$ Admin fee, which is no surprise, anyway, I am glad to have the money!

I'm sure at the time dishing out the extra cash for another plane ticket sucked, but I bet now it feels like you're pocketing that money

HaHa, I remember that Cuba story. Getting money back is always key, and yeah they may have slapped you with $100 admin charge... but at least you got some of it back, you could have been shafted all together and got nada back.
