When we’re planning our vacations, we book our tickets in advance to avoid a surge in pricing closer to travel time and of course, for better seats. But sometimes, due to things not in our control, we might have to cancel tickets, and this can be an expensive affair, especially for flights. Since we end up losing a major chunk of the amount already paid (if not all) cancelling flight tickets are something we dread. However, this is bound to change, as Paytm has launched ‘Cancel Protect,’ which will allow you to claim a 100% refund! Intriguing, isn’t it? Here’s all about this new feature!
All About Paytm ‘Cancel Protect’
Paytm is one of the most popular payment and financial services in India. Today, nearly every smartphone has this app, as it lets you pay for a number of services, including everything from booking movie tickets to paying bills. And recently, they have launched an all-new feature, ‘Cancel Protect’. This feature will let the customers be protected against the cancellation charges levied by airlines and bus operators when tickets are cancelled.
