Were you issued with a Refund Credit Note (RCN) for a cancelled ATOL protected package holiday during the pandemic? The CAA reports some £85m in value remain unredeemed by travellers and is urging those still holding them to use and book a holiday by September or request a refund. After this date ATOL protection expires on the RCN value.

More information in this MSE article if you still are holding one.

Interested to know how this impacts the MSE forum community.
