Dear Questioner,

In general, booking fees cannot be refunded unless the opposite party agrees.

However, you can claim the booking fee if the cancellation is due to the negligence of the other party or unforeseen events, and if there are clauses in the agreement regarding the repayment of the booking fee upon cancellation.

For further clarification, share your WhatsApp number.

Dear Questioner,

It will be according to the termination clause in the reservation form. If it's refundable, you may approach them and claim your amount.

They have to return it if there is a refund option.

Dear Questioner,

If the developer agrees with the same, then you can; otherwise, if the form mentions non-refundable, then it's an issue.

Please contact us via email or phone.
