Welcome! This forum has a treasure trove of great info – Scouters helping Scouters! Just a heads up, though - all content, information, and opinions shared on this forum are those of the author, not the BSA.
I have a parent that applied to our Pack and paid, but withdrew the application almost immediately, no one in our Pack accepted it. She said the payment has posted (cleared, non-pending) on her credit card. I’m assuming that’ll be refunded, how long will that take?
We had one. It required a ticket to be entered by our registrar. It still hasn’t cleared from the app, but I believe they got the refund. The registrar is having to enter a second ticket to get it cleared.
Ok, so it sounds like something I have to contact my council about. She’s actually looking to join a Troop (her son turns 11 in December), and she’s amenable to having the money put towards that. So I imagine that’ll work out better from BSA’s perspective, they just keep the money and she pays the difference to the Troop (their dues are more). I’m in contact with the Troop, so we’ll figure it out.
