    Hi, My name is *****. On March 18th, my son and I booked a time slot at X-Play in Barrie Ontario. I called ahead to confirm the place is not busy. I made it clear it was going to be a long drive I don't want to wait our time and fuel getting there if it's too busy. I made it very clear of my concerns. I was told the place is not busy and instructed to to book online to reserve a spot. I'm reaching out to BBB for help to resolve. If there are others who may experience the same, perhaps this may bring some awareness to how the X-Play business is operating. All the details are in the two emails I sent to X-Play requesting a refund for $73.43 and details of what took place on the 18th, and the steps I've taken to resolve this. Up until now, I have been completely ignored by X-play. *** * ****** * **** ** ****** *** ******** *****. *********** <*****************.com> Sat, 18 Mar, 16:09 (6 days ago) to ****@x-play.ca Hello, Regarding Sales ID ******  I placed a call before booking a jump time today to confirm how busy the place is. I made it very clear on the phone that my son and I will be driving a long distance to get to X-play today. I did not want to make a long drive just to find out it's way too packed for him and I to jump together. The place was packed when we arrived so I requested a refund. I really don't have this kind of money to spend. Store credit is not an option ******* ** *** ****** ** **** * ** **** ** **** It would be different if we lived around the corner from X-Play. I spoke with ****** regarding the matter and I was instructed to make the request for a refund via this email and was reassured it should not be an issue. Please confirm you are able to refund our online booking. Thank you, ****l Sent from my ****** *********** <*****************.com> Mon, 20 Mar, 20:46 (4 days ago) to [email protected] Hello, This is regarding Sales ID 345263 I wrote and email to you on Saterday 18th, (a few days ago) requesting a refund. On the 18th, I called the X-Play in Barrie and made it very clear, I did not want to book a time slot and drive a very long distance if the place is too busy. I was told on the phkne it was not busy and to just book a jump time online. I booked it and then drove with my son to Barrie. When my son and I entered the X-Play building, there was at least 5 kids jumping on each and every trampoline. There was absolutely no room for my son and I to jump. The whole facility was way over capacity. I asked for a refund because there was literally no room for us to jump on any trampoline. I wasted very precious time with my son as well as alot of fuel to get to Barrie. *** **** * *** ** ***** **** ** *** ** **** ******* ** *** ****** *** I wanted treat him to something special realy fun ** *** **** *** **** **. I spent $73.43 to do nothing but drive and feel the disappoint. I was told you have a very stricked no cancelation policy regardless of the not being able to jump and was redirected to this email address to explain the situation. I had to explain this to 3 people at the Barrie X-Play just to be told there is nothing they can do about the number of people jumping and to contact this email to request a refund and the is nothing they can do about it at the facility. I wrote a very detailed email to you a few days ago and I feel like I'm being completely ignored. I Spent $73.43 for socks and to use a trampoline for two hours. When my son and I arrived as per our online booking time slot, the facility literally had no room for us to jump. All that could be offered to me is store credit or reschedul the jump time. I booked and showed up for our jump time and could not jump due to the overwelming amount of people. Is there anything in your policy that states what happens if the facility is way over capacity and what happens if your customers can not have any jump time during the booked time slot? This is not a request to cancel my booking. As I mentioned, we showed up on time as per our online booking. The facility had no room for us to jump when we arrived for our scheduled jump time. Why is it unreasonable for me to ask for a refund for a service that you could not provide? I do not want to reschedule something we showed up for and drove a very long distance to get to. ** * ** *** ******* * ******** **** ****** ****** *** **** ****** ** ***** * **** ** ******** *** ** *** ****** ******** ******* * **** **** ***** ** ******** ** *** *** ****** ****** ******** ** ***** **** *** **** *** **** ********* ********** ***** **** **** ** ******

    For all the parents out there. I never do this but this time I must and here is why.. We put a deposit for my daughter’s birthday party to Barrie location@ XPLAY Amusements. It had supposed to be spending of upwards $400 for 1.45 hr party for 12 kids. Unfortunately, 3 days before the party Ava got sick with a viral infection. I called X play and tried to reschedule the party. Not only that I was not able to reschedule they have claimed that they have to now keep $100 deposit as they were inconvenient (I.e time slot booked and they had already ordered the pizzas). When I asked if I can call and reschedule the pizza for them until we are able to have the party they said no. We were not able to talk to the manager. I sent them email and got no response. Shame on you x play. It is not about money here but more about principle. You Gouge on hard working parents. Instead of being grateful that we didn’t bring a sick child to spread the virus you had basically take money for nothing from us and many other parents in similar situation. So now is instead of having a sale of more than $400/year from us they keep the $100 and lost loyal customer…
