Find answers to your legal question.





I paid a lot of money for a trip for my fiance and I and now he says he can't go...?

... should he pay me back for his share? Or does the cost fall on me because it wasn't his fault he can't make it?

No you can't force him to pay you back.

You may have to swallow this one if you can't find someone to take his place.

I am guessing that because he's your fiance, there was no agreement legally binding him to pay you. (If there was, I'd be worried!)

This happened to my cousin once, she bought a very expensive theatre ticket for her friend who promised she'd pay my cousin back. The friend then said she couldn't make it, and my poor cousin was left with the bill for the friend's ticket.

Sh1t happens.

If it was a gift and he never said he would give you any money unfortunately you are stuck with the bill. Enjoy the trip yourself since you paid for it. Can you sell it on Ebay? Good luck!

How important is it to keep him as your fiancee? If you make him foot the bill, he might not be happy with you about it. Was it his trip or a trip you planned for the two of you? He booked it, his problem. You planned it and booked it; your problem.

Well, you already bought the tickets and if he cant go with you then ask him if he'd have a problem if you still go and take someone else. Ask a girlfriend or your sister to go with you. Dont dissrespect him by taking a guyfriend. Have fun!

You are going to be married right? Soon most all of your money will be pooledcheaper.

Was it a more of a surprise thing? If so you pay or find someone else to go. If you are going to lose a large part of the money it would probably be cheaper to take someone at half price.

If it was not a surprise or he has some last minute job thing he should pay.

You have to look at the cancellation fees and all of that. Maybe you won't lose all but pay cancellation. Maybe you might be able to shift it to another date and just pay a smallish fee. This all depends on how you bookedIf you booked the air tickets seperately they might give you a bigger credit that is worth more later than what you would lose by canceling outright.

if it wasn't his fault just take someone else and let it be. if he wont go because he doesn't want to then get him to pay you back!


AKAO4D
Can you get a credit and move on? If he can't go, he can't go. You go and take a friend and have a good time. End of story.


GoddessParis
Try as hard as you can to sell the trip even at a loss if possible. Then have him pay for the remaining balance.

Where is the trip to?
