If I could give a Zero I would. I will never donate to them again or attend any event they organize.I bought a ticket for Yasmine Mogahed event scheduled for Nov22, 2024 here in Edmonton.I bought the ticket on October 20, 2024. I requested a Refund on Oct 22, two days after (within the time limit as I had more than 7 or 10 days to get a refund).No refund has been processed. I waited until today Novembre2, 2024, before emailing Penny Appeal with the screen shots, and letting them know that I will have to involve my Credit Card Company who will take it from them if they do not help me. I said I would rather deal with them before escalating to my Credit Card company. I dealt with the Evenet Manager based in Mississauga: Sarika Aysha VermaEvents Manager at Penny Appeal Canada, Mississauga, Ontario.Right after my email the evenbrite status changed from "Refund Pending" to "Refund Approved", but the lady was dishonest and said the refund has been processed, instead of being truthful, as she only approved the refund after she received my email. The Eventbrite showed it was still pending and soon after I sent my email warning them I will escalate it further to my Credit Card company, the status on Eventbrite changed to "Approved". I took screen shots of it.It is sad that Islam is used to take advantage of people. So many people donate their hard earned money to only find out they have been duped. Luckily for me it was only a ticket, as it had been few years since I donated to them. I have become very cautious who donate to. The reviews on Penny Appeal are so bad on Trust Pilot as well as other sites.We should all do our due diligence before donating.
