Cancellations by mail will take approximately 4 to 6 weeks to become effective.

3.3. Enrollment fees are non-refundable, notwithstanding Member's cancellation of membership in the Club.
3.4. 60 days after Trial enrollment in the Club, and on each anniversary thereafter, Members will be automatically charged an annual fee of $39.95 for membership in the Club. Annual fees are non-refundable, notwithstanding Member’s cancellation of membership in the Club.
3.5. One (1) year after Annual enrollment in the Club, and on each anniversary thereafter, Members will be automatically charged an annual fee of $39.95 for membership in the Club. Annual fees are non-refundable, notwithstanding Member’s cancellation of membership in the Club.

3.7. A Member will not be entitled to any refund of any membership fees upon cancellation of membership in the Club.
When you ticked the box saying "I agree..." and clicked "Purchase..." you agreed to all of the above terms and more. Again it's very clear that they did not, under the terms and conditions, owe you a refund. They did give you a travel credit equivalent to the annual fee. I think that's fair given the circumstances.
