Spa Seekers not wanting to issue a refund or even a voucher after cancellation

Hi all,
The following happened to me last week and I have been trying to tackle the situation but at this point the customer service is not even answering my emails.
I had booked a spa day for my mum's birthday last Thursday. When booking it I made sure to add a cancellation cover just in case. And I am glad I did since in the beginning of last week we were pinged that we have been in contact with a covid case and had to self-isolate and/or take a pcr test. We did the test but were still waiting for results on Wednesday evening. Thus, I called the spa, I cancelled and they told me to contact Spa Seekers for a refund. At this point, I emailed Spa Seekers, explaining the situation that we wont be able to make it since we have been pinged and self-isolating. However, their answer was that I had not paid cancellation cover and unless I provide a positive pcr they wont be able to do anything. So I replied, asking them to double-check if i have cancellation cover, since I was certain I paid for it and that I cannot provide them with a positive pcr since I have just been in contact and I am not certain what my test would turn out to be. I did not get a reply. So today I decided to double-check my booking confirmation and there is a cancellation cover cost which I have paid and it was included in the booking. I emailed the person once again, sending the booking confirmation and mentioning that I do have cancellation cover and that I couldnt provide positive pcr results since they turnt out to be negative (thankfully). I also sent a fresh enquiry but still have not received an answer. I tried calling them a couple of times but their lines are always busy it seems. I don't mind if I will get a refund or vouchers or the appointment is simply rescheduled, but I am not sure how to achieve that since I can't even get in contact with them and they somewhat deceived me into thinking that I had made a mistake when booking and not paid the extra cover.
Does anyone know what I can do in this situation? Or what my rights would be? The cancellation cover does say no refunds but they should give me a voucher based on what I read in their cancellation cover policy.
Thank you in advance!

Did you not ask the spa it was booked with if you could rearrange, rather than cancel?Life in the slow lane0
