    Re: Fork n' Film NYC Reservation - Important Announcement

    Hi there,

    What’s the latest here? 

    I’m needing my money back, and no BS around internal steps.

    Or be honest - is this a scam? If so, well played. If not, class action. I’ve found a couple dozen other people who are also owed money.

    Resolve this.

    Thanks,
    Harley

    Hi there,

    I’m really sorry that this has dragged on for so long. You’ve been incredibly patient, and it makes complete sense that you’d want clarity. I hear your frustration, and it’s completely valid.

    I know it feels like it should be as simple as clicking a button, but the refund process on our end goes through several internal steps before the transaction can actually be released. That doesn’t make the delay any less frustrating, and I’m truly sorry it has taken this long, especially after you’ve already reached out multiple times.


    I also want to share that we are a very small team managing a high volume of requests, but we are working as quickly and carefully as possible to make sure every refund, including yours, is completed properly. Our team is fully focused on moving things along so you can have your refund soon.


    You’ll hear from us again as soon as your refund is complete, along with a copy of your refund receipt for your records.


    Thank you again, from the bottom of our hearts, for your patience, understanding, and kindness. We truly appreciate it.


    Warmly,

    Dear Harley,

    I want to sincerely apologize for the last-minute cancellation. We know how much anticipation and planning go into a special night out, and we’re truly sorry for the disruption this caused. 

    Please know this decision was made only after every possible option was considered. We completely understand your decision not to reschedule and are happy to accommodate your refund request.

    Refunds may take a little longer than usual as we’re currently managing a high volume, but we’ll be sure to keep you updated along the way.

    If you change your mind and would like to reschedule your tickets for another event, we’d be happy to offer a complimentary VIP upgrade as a gesture of appreciation.

    That’s very unfortunate to hear. Myself and my wife are in NYC on holiday from South Africa, so a reschedule or other tickets won’t work for us as we are only here fore two weeks.

    Can you please process a refund?

    Important Announcement

    Dear Fork n’ Film Guests,

     

    We want to thank you for being part of the Fork n’ Film family. Your support means everything to us, and it’s because of guests like you that we’ve been able to create unforgettable movie-and-dining experiences.

     

    After much consideration, we’ve made the difficult decision to temporarily pause shows for the next few weeks. This short break will allow our team to upgrade our production, refine our holiday menus, and strengthen operations so that every detail of your next visit is nothing short of exceptional in time for the holidays.

     

    This affects your ticket for Ratatouille. We understand this news may be disappointing, and we’re truly sorry for any inconvenience it may cause.

     

    Our team will be calling you within the week to assist with rescheduling. We’re also excited to share our upcoming Fork n’ Film Holiday lineup! Below is a list of available showtimes for your review.

     

    • The Polar Express

    • How the Grinch Stole Christmas

    • Elf

     

    If you prefer to save your tickets for our next Ratatouille show or another future Fork n' Film event of your choice, we're happy to accommodate this as well. Just let us know and we'll take care of the rest.

     

    We deeply appreciate your patience and understanding as we take this time to come back stronger for you. We can’t wait to welcome you back soon and share everything we’ve been working on.

     

    With gratitude,

    The Fork n’ Film Team

    Re: Fork n' Film NYC Reservation - Important Announcement

    Hi Harley,

    I hear you loud and clear and I really appreciate you being so direct with me. I will cut straight to the point because you are missing $400 and it has been far too long. I completely understand why your trust is shaken and if I were in your shoes I would be feeling the exact same way.

    I want to assure you that this is not a scam. I am a real person on this end and I am genuinely sorry that our delay has made it feel otherwise. I am stepping away from the standard process and taking this directly to our finance lead myself. I am looking into this right now to find out exactly where the breakdown happened and how to get your money released immediately.

    I am going to stay on top of this personally until it is finished. Thank you for your patience while I get this across the finish line for you.

    Warm regards,
    Sam

    Our team is working diligently to complete every remaining refund as quickly as possible. I know this has been a longer process than expected, and I’m truly sorry for that.


    You’ll hear from us again as soon as your refund is complete, along with a copy of your refund receipt.


    Thank you for your continued understanding and kindness.

    That’s very unfortunate to hear. Myself and my wife are in NYC on holiday from South Africa, so a reschedule or other tickets won’t work for us as we are only here fore two weeks.

    Can you please process a refund?

    Important Announcement

    Dear Fork n’ Film Guests,

     

    We want to thank you for being part of the Fork n’ Film family. Your support means everything to us, and it’s because of guests like you that we’ve been able to create unforgettable movie-and-dining experiences.

     

    After much consideration, we’ve made the difficult decision to temporarily pause shows for the next few weeks. This short break will allow our team to upgrade our production, refine our holiday menus, and strengthen operations so that every detail of your next visit is nothing short of exceptional in time for the holidays.

     

    This affects your ticket for Ratatouille. We understand this news may be disappointing, and we’re truly sorry for any inconvenience it may cause.

     

    Our team will be calling you within the week to assist with rescheduling. We’re also excited to share our upcoming Fork n’ Film Holiday lineup! Below is a list of available showtimes for your review.

     

    • The Polar Express

    • How the Grinch Stole Christmas

    • Elf

     

    If you prefer to save your tickets for our next Ratatouille show or another future Fork n' Film event of your choice, we're happy to accommodate this as well. Just let us know and we'll take care of the rest.

     

    We deeply appreciate your patience and understanding as we take this time to come back stronger for you. We can’t wait to welcome you back soon and share everything we’ve been working on.

     

    With gratitude,

    The Fork n’ Film Team

    Re: Fork n' Film NYC Reservation - Important Announcement

    Can you provide a specific list of what your team is currently navigating, so I can determine how far you are in the process?

    You haven't ever proactively updated me, so forgive me for not being willing to wait to hear a more "definite update on the specific next steps".

    Thanks,

    Re: Fork n' Film NYC Reservation - Important Announcement

    Hi Harley,

    Thank you for your candid feedback. I completely understand your frustration and sincerely apologize for the lack of proactive communication. It’s certainly not the experience we want you to have, and I appreciate you holding us accountable.

    To be as transparent as possible regarding what the team is currently navigating: we are in the final stage of our internal audit and manual verification process. This involves our finance department cross-referencing each transaction with our payment processor to ensure funds are released correctly to the original payment method. Because this is being handled manually to avoid any further errors, it has unfortunately created a significant queue.

    I realize that hearing "it's in progress" isn't the same as seeing the result, but please know I am pushing to get your specific transaction finalized. I have flagged your account with our billing lead to ensure you are prioritized as they work through this week's batch.

    I will personally send you a status update by the end of the day today even if the status hasn't changed, just so you aren't left wondering where things stand.

    Warm regards,
    Sam

    Hi Harley,

    I hear you loud and clear and I really appreciate you being so direct with me. I will cut straight to the point because you are missing $400 and it has been far too long. I completely understand why your trust is shaken and if I were in your shoes I would be feeling the exact same way.

    I want to assure you that this is not a scam. I am a real person on this end and I am genuinely sorry that our delay has made it feel otherwise. I am stepping away from the standard process and taking this directly to our finance lead myself. I am looking into this right now to find out exactly where the breakdown happened and how to get your money released immediately.

    I am going to stay on top of this personally until it is finished. Thank you for your patience while I get this across the finish line for you.

    Warm regards,

    Hi there,

    What’s the latest here? 

    I’m needing my money back, and no BS around internal steps.

    Or be honest - is this a scam? If so, well played. If not, class action. I’ve found a couple dozen other people who are also owed money.

    Resolve this.

    Thanks,

    Hi there,

    I’m really sorry that this has dragged on for so long. You’ve been incredibly patient, and it makes complete sense that you’d want clarity. I hear your frustration, and it’s completely valid.

    I know it feels like it should be as simple as clicking a button, but the refund process on our end goes through several internal steps before the transaction can actually be released. That doesn’t make the delay any less frustrating, and I’m truly sorry it has taken this long, especially after you’ve already reached out multiple times.


    I also want to share that we are a very small team managing a high volume of requests, but we are working as quickly and carefully as possible to make sure every refund, including yours, is completed properly. Our team is fully focused on moving things along so you can have your refund soon.


    You’ll hear from us again as soon as your refund is complete, along with a copy of your refund receipt for your records.


    Thank you again, from the bottom of our hearts, for your patience, understanding, and kindness. We truly appreciate it.


    Warmly,

    Hi there,

    That’s very unfortunate to hear. Myself and my wife are in NYC on holiday from South Africa, so a reschedule or other tickets won’t work for us as we are only here fore two weeks.

    Can you please process a refund?

    Thanks,

    Important Announcement

    Dear Fork n’ Film Guests,

     

    We want to thank you for being part of the Fork n’ Film family. Your support means everything to us, and it’s because of guests like you that we’ve been able to create unforgettable movie-and-dining experiences.

     

    After much consideration, we’ve made the difficult decision to temporarily pause shows for the next few weeks. This short break will allow our team to upgrade our production, refine our holiday menus, and strengthen operations so that every detail of your next visit is nothing short of exceptional in time for the holidays.

     

    This affects your ticket for Ratatouille. We understand this news may be disappointing, and we’re truly sorry for any inconvenience it may cause.

     

    Our team will be calling you within the week to assist with rescheduling. We’re also excited to share our upcoming Fork n’ Film Holiday lineup! Below is a list of available showtimes for your review.

     

    • The Polar Express

    • How the Grinch Stole Christmas

    • Elf

     

    If you prefer to save your tickets for our next Ratatouille show or another future Fork n' Film event of your choice, we're happy to accommodate this as well. Just let us know and we'll take care of the rest.

     

    We deeply appreciate your patience and understanding as we take this time to come back stronger for you. We can’t wait to welcome you back soon and share everything we’ve been working on.

     

    With gratitude,

    The Fork n’ Film Team

    Re: Fork n' Film NYC Reservation - Important Announcement

    Another month gone. Nearly 7 months have passed and still no refund.

    What exactly is happening? This is ridiculous. Please don’t respond with a comment about understanding my frustration or anything like that. You’ve lost that privilege.

    Tell me when I’m getting my money.

    Hi Harley,

    I’m reaching out as promised to provide an update on your refund.

    As of this afternoon, I don’t have a new status change to report from our billing team. However, I will be personally monitoring your account throughout the weekend to catch any movement as soon as it happens.

    I’ll be back in touch the moment I see this finalized. Thank you again for your continued patience!

    Hi Harley,

    Thank you for your candid feedback. I completely understand your frustration and sincerely apologize for the lack of proactive communication. It’s certainly not the experience we want you to have, and I appreciate you holding us accountable.

    To be as transparent as possible regarding what the team is currently navigating: we are in the final stage of our internal audit and manual verification process. This involves our finance department cross-referencing each transaction with our payment processor to ensure funds are released correctly to the original payment method. Because this is being handled manually to avoid any further errors, it has unfortunately created a significant queue.

    I realize that hearing "it's in progress" isn't the same as seeing the result, but please know I am pushing to get your specific transaction finalized. I have flagged your account with our billing lead to ensure you are prioritized as they work through this week's batch.

    I will personally send you a status update by the end of the day today even if the status hasn't changed, just so you aren't left wondering where things stand.

    Warm regards,
    Sam

    You haven't ever proactively updated me, so forgive me for not being willing to wait to hear a more "definite update on the specific next steps".

    Thanks,
