Verified ReviewerNo ferry time booking for 'August 2024 in Germany possible on the website so far
Preferred solution: Dear Sir or Madam, We have booked our ferries through a travel agency, but for some time now it has only been possible to book ferry times up to June 24, 2024. When will it be possible to book the ferry times for 02.08 or 04.08.2024 on your website?
I have a question regarding an incident on The Queen of Alberni on Feb 6/24 on the 12:45 sailing.
While standing in the cafeteria lineup we noticed a young woman ahead of us with a large snake on her shoulders and neck. Since all three people in my party are extremely afraid of snakes it is safe to say that we were extremely concerned by this!
After we sat down the party with the snake sat a short distance from us.
Needless to say we were quite uncomfortable! A crew member did speak to them briefly but they remained seated with the snake on the young womans lap! I guess my question or concern is quite obvious!
I have always been led to believe that with the exception of service dogs, all animals must remain in the car deck area! I look forward to your response on this matter!
Thank You

Persistent problem with online bookings payment verification
I have a persistent and serious problem when booking online, a function essential to my frequent travel for work. Difficulties have only emerged recently, possibly around the same time as the introduction of the 3-D security process.
When I reach the "payment" stage I am immediately confronted with a 2SV page from TD-Visa or occasionally CIBC. I never receive the promised codes from any of the three banks controlling my credit cards, yet there is no problem with transactions with other entities (airlines, hotels, etc) nor with these cards in general.
Your web-page describing the new 3-D procedure says any problems should be discussed with our card-issuing banks. I have done this tonight with TD-Visa, and earlier with CIBC.
They both claim everything from their end is fine, cannot shed any further light on the problem and both claim it lies within the BCF system. I'm at my wits end; could you please check this out?

Verified Reviewer |Refund of ticket purchase d/t boken ferry
Hello,
I booked and payed for ferry tickets in full ($342.30) May 16h, 2023. The BEF# are: Vancouver Tsawwassen to Nanaimo (Duke Point): B23276**** & Nanaimo (Duke Point) to Vancouver Tsawwassen: B23276****.
However, upon arrival at Nanaimo (Duke point) July 28th, after waiting in line beyond the schedule ferry departure time, I went and asked one of your stuff members what the hold up is. Only then I was informed that the ferry is broken and that there will be no sailing that day from Nanaimo Duke point. We were also informed that we will receive a full refund because of this. However, I haven't received any refund from BC ferries to date (August 21, 2023).
Instead I had to purchase another ticket (value: $163.65) that same day and had to wait for over 4 hours despite my previous reservation hoping to be able to get on the last ferry from Nanaimo to Vancouver Horseshoe Bay.
Needless to say that I am extremely disappointed that I wasn't informed by BC ferries about the ferry cancellation and that I still haven't received my refund. I request an immediate refund to my credit card!
