My understanding (and someone, please correct me if I'm wrong) is that when you change a flight, your EBCI gets moved as if you'd purchased it that date too, not your original purchase date. I've never had it 'drop' my EBCI if I change my flights though. Did you keep the same reservation number or were you assigned a new reservation number?I changed my flight to an earlier time and it dropped my EBCI. It didn't alert me it was going to change anything and I just happened to see a statement about buying the A1-A15 so I called about that. They said it was because I changed the flight and the refund was already processed that day. I could buy the EBCI again but it would be today's date and not from the 2.5 months earlier when I originally booked. I passed.
Has this happened to anyone else? I'm wondering if I call back and talk to a supervisor can they back date the EBCI or would I just be told the same thing?
Regardless of which happened, my understanding is that your EBCI date would change to the date you moved your reservation so you'd be no further behind to purchase it today than you would have been if they'd moved it along with your reservation.
