How to Request a Thorpe Park Ticket Refund In 3 Easy Steps

Thorpe Park Resort, or simply Thorpe Park, is a UK amusement park located in Thorpe, Surrey. Merlin Entertainments operates the amusement park, and it includes themed cabins, rides, roller coasters (including Stealth, the UK's fastest roller coaster), and live events. According to the company's website, online booking is the only way visitors can guarantee their entry. Unfortunately, getting refunds isn't always easy once you use your credit card to make online bookings. Some vendors and websites don't have great customer support, while some companies fail to respond to your inquiries for replacements and refunds.

So does Thorpe Park refund tickets? Typically, you should get a refund if you have a genuine reason for cancelling your tickets. However, Thorpe Park has a no refund policy even though you may have a genuine reason for requesting a Thorpe Park ticket refund.

Thorpe Park Ticket Refund Policy

Thorpe Park's support page shows that all tickets are non-transferable and non-refundable. The company provides a contact page where you can discuss your booking further or submit your queries. You will need to provide your order number or a screenshot of your tickets to get assistance. Thorpe Park also has a live chat service (subject to availability) where customers can discuss their issues, such as requesting to change their booking date due to extenuating circumstances. For example, the park allows customers to change the date or time of their visit if they develop symptoms of the coronavirus or have a confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis.

From Thorpe Park's terms and conditions, Merlin Attractions Operations Ltd is the responsible contractual party for all payments made via the official website. The responsibility also extends to refunds, cancellations, chargebacks, and dispute resolution. Thorpe Park can also remove or refuse admission to visitors who violate its entry conditions and terms and conditions without a right to a refund. So how can you get a refund on Thorpe park tickets?
