Frequently Asked Questions Related to Cancellation and Refund Policy - FAQ'S

Q. Does the cancellation policy/rescheduling policy apply to me if I book on event day or the last day?

Ans: Yes, the policy is applicable irrespective of the booking date. The cancellation / reschedule policy is applicable to everyone with immediate effect from the date and time of booking. The refunds/rescheduling requests will be processed based on the date and time of cancellation/reschedule request sent to us. The date and time of booking the event is irrelevant for the calculation of number of days between event date and cancellation request date.

Q. What is the basis/logic of cancellation/reschedule policy in case of medical or personal emergency of participant or organizing team?

Ans: The cancellation policy is based on fairness towards the participant and the organizing team. In case of medical/personal emergency, the loss arising out of cancellation/reschedule will be borne by the respective person. i.e. if the organizing team member faces a medical emergency situation and the event gets cancelled, the participant will not have to suffer financial loss. Similarly, if the participant faces a medical emergency situation, the organizing team will not have to suffer financial loss. The cancellation policy is designed with a completely unbiased approach towards the participant and organizing team and is aimed at fairness towards both.

Q. Will it work, if I try to threaten to defame Mischief Treks team or blackmail the team with threats of social media, and attempt to get a full refund even if I am not eligible for a refund?

Ans: Using threats or defamation has always backfired for those who have attempted it till now. Our sports team does not have helpless chained slaves or corporate slaves, We believe in equality and logical unbiased reasoning. As the saying goes "Deal people in their own coins", we like to stand tall to our commitment and expect the same from participants aswell. Stepping back from mutually agreed trems explained on event page never worked well for anyone.
