I have won at MCOL and also CEDR. I’ve never lost.
My CEDR case related to a cancellation in 2017, I received the compensation in 2020, about 28 months. I was in it for how long it took. I argued with the airline, at my convenience, until I had enough responses that clearly demonstrated their unreasonableness. I then took time to prepare my case for CEDR.
My MCOL case related to a cancellation in 2010, I received compensation in 2011, about 10 months. I put in considerable research and reading to get a good knowledge on how to pursue my claim. It was good to see Se4n G4tes firm’s responses which raised more questions for further research. I submitted my claim to the court and attended a preliminary hearing with a Judge and the airline’s barrister. The barrister played an aloof game which was odd. The judge raised a few points and then about a week later I received a cheque in the post.
I learnt alot and the experiences have been extremely useful.
