Delayed cancellation-Deposit Refund

Hi,

Before the national lockdown I booked a hotel(Grande Kloof Hotel Boutique Hotel) through Safarinow.com. I booked for 5 nights(23 December-28 December 2020) and paid the deposit. because of the national pandemic, I then decided to cancel the booking. Since May 20th I have sent 3 emails so far to their cancellation email address and yet no response. All I want is my money of R6 292 back. My enquiry number is #***4.

I received a call and was told I am going to lose 100% of my deposit which is NOT correct according to the cancellation policy which states that if I cancel 30 days before the arrival I only lose 10% of deposit. In this case I am cancelling months before arrival and it is the pandemic that is forcing my hand to cancel, this should be a very good reason to get ALL my deposit back.
Basically you are saying It is either I risk my family's life or lose about R6292 worth of money.

This is completely unprofessional, unfair and uncalled for!

The lady I spoke to said she will get back to me and I will be waiting for a quick response!
