Hi there,

Wondering if anyone else has had experience dealing with this.

I know AFTER the pass is issued and once the relevant season has started, you can request for a refund if you have an eligible event occurrence.

If you've paid the $49 deposit/down payment for the upcoming 2026/2027 season for an epic pass or an edge card, and the remaining balance has yet to be charged (due in the fall) and the passes are yet to be issued, what are the options or steps for cancellation if you're willing ​to forfeit the $49?

I've reached out to Whistler Vail and they've been unhelpful, they just respond that no refunds are allowed... but this isn't a refund, it's a cancellation request, for something that hasn't been charged and hasn't been issued.​​​​

This is like a Goldilocks problem. We've test driven both the Mini Cooper 2 Door SE as well as the Mini Countryman SE, and while we found delight in both of them, one is too small and the other too big.​ ​

Our family daily driver car is a 4 door hard top ​Cooper S. We love this thing. This nifty little beast has hauled everything from a crib, to a changing table, winter tires, dog, toddler, the elderly and their large collapsible walker, to a bookshelf, large tall plant, etc.

It is deceptively large, more comfortable than you'd think, and is just such a joy to drive. The turning radius is awesome, and we say thank you to our car for being nifty every time we have to park anywhere.

It is literally the perfect car for us. We're mostly city / near the city folk, and although we can make it work, we truthfully don't need the larger size of a Countryman, and while we don't mind it, it just doesn't spark as much joy as the 4 door package does for us. That being said, it's too difficult loading passengers in and out of the back of a 2 door; we have a family and the 2 door is too limiting.

We just want exactly what we have, a 4 door mini cooper. But electrified.

Please, for the love of all that's holy, not everyone needs either an SUV (countryman) or is a single/DINK couple (2 door mini). There are some of us who think the 4 door is THE perfect city family car.

All I want for Christmas is world peace, and Mini to release an EV version of the 4 door hard top cooper SE, and to bring it to Canada.

MINI COOPER 4 DOOR HARD TOP SE

PLEASE!!!

That is all.

EDIT: We don't get the Aceman in our region. And we still literally just want them to stick an electric battery pack into a cute little 4 door Cooper. Coopers are unique and have so much charm. The Aceman looks too much like a miniature Countryman. We WANT the classic Mini look. Electrified. If you're reading this, Mini marketing department, hear our prayers.
