Southwest credit question

[jfoofj]

I purchased a ticket w/ Southwest using a credit from Nov 08 (I had found my flights cheaper and got $60 in credit). I am now not able to use this ticket (I paid $88 plus tax/fees, I think it was around $106 total so I paid $46 for the ticket). When I look up my confirmation online it says that the funds must be used by Nov 19th... I will not be flying anywhere by that time. Can I use the funds towards a ticket for someone else or does it have to stay in my name? Is just the $60 expired by Nov 19th or the whole fare? I just hate to eat the cost of the ticket, so if I could transfer it to someone else I would try to do that.

I know I should just call Southwest, but I thought I had seen threads on here about people doing something like this in the past. Thanks in advance!

A. You can use the ticketless travel funds for anyone you wish.

B. All the funds, including the additional money that you added to the original funds will expire on the date listed.

C. It is possible to extend the booking deadline by calling SWA and paying a fee which gets deducted from the balance.
