zrtkat Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 Does anyone know if you can change the start date on a 7 day permit???? Unfortunately we had to cancel after trailer problem. Thanks Zrtkat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Signfan Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 serviceclientele@fcmq.qc.ca I'd e-mail them if you can't find anything on the permit website. Seems like a reasonable request if the 7 days hasn't started yet. If it's started you're probably SOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I emailed them today but they are closed and the permit starts tomorrow so it's not looking good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuse6 Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 I email the client service address last week and received no response. Send another to info@fcmq.qc.ca address and received a response couple hours later. zrtkat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gullyrider Posted February 20, 2023 Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 If you don't receive a reply in time, I would suggest contacting the club from which your permit was purchased. They may be amenable to working out some sort of a partial rebate of the portion of the money they received as a good faith gesture. In the past, our Club has rebated the amount received from the FCMQ in the case of cancellations for medical emergencies and whatnot. zrtkat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zrtkat Posted February 20, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2023 Just got off phone with customer service she said too late to change dates on permit, she said 24;hrs before start of trail permits .I explained I called Sunday they where closed. She said too bad. So no trip for us this year not going to spend another $600 on permits.

viper2 Posted February 21, 2023 Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 I think is a good lesson here in economics. You spent quite a bit of money for nothing. I could never understand why someone in our sport would not buy the season pass before the December deadline. The price is $145 Canadian more than a 7 day pass and $25 less than buying a 7 day and then a 3day. You are good for the year then, get the sticker in the mail long before you go and can come and go as you please. With all the money we spend in this sport it seems crazy to me to try and pinch pennies here Snohorse, wng-2, nyskidooerinnewhampshire and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every year we have come to Quebec snowmobiling we purchase a seasonal pass and we only come up snowmobiling for 7-10 days . This year was different due to my health we did not know if I would be able to go or not till after December. So yes I agree the seasonal pass is the way to go before December and next year we will be purchasing early for sure, I am not on here complaining about loosing Money on trail permits,and first 2 nights of lodging, I think it is only fair for the lodging to charge me because they could have rented them out . I am more upset about not doing what we love to do and thats snowmobiling in Quebec ,So all we can do is let it go and look forward to next year enjoying what we love to do Hoping the season is long for people snowmobiling in Quebec Greg NSHM, viper2, stoney and 8 others 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were to do it again I would suggest waiting to purchase it until you land at your starting spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This year mine was $300 U.S. This equates to about two days on the trail with Food fuel and lodging. I made up my mind years ago that if I am going to be in the sport, it is going to cost a lot. This is also why I have been out of the sport off and on over the last thirty plus years. If I can't ride Quebec, I have no interest in riding. I hope 2024 goes better for you. zrtkat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
