ClubMed refusing to pay back deposit

I paid the deposit for a holiday in December 2019 for a trip to Mauritius in September 2020. My intention was to book in 2021, but it is clear that we will not be traveling. When contacting Club Med, they indicated that I will not be getting my deposit back. As an attorney I will report them to the ombudsman as well as begin legal proceedings for recovery of the deposit. The proof in dealing with companies comes when they have your back during extraordinary circumstances. Clubbed has failed dismally.
