In your case, for a cash ticket, 30% is the correct statutory reimbursement % for a flight under 1500km so I’m not sure what the issue is with BA correctly applying the law. People are usually complaining when they don’t!
It’s an excellent money-spinning ruse for BA:
– Sell Club for £300
– Sell Economy for £120
Downgrade everyone from Club, and give them £90 compo. Make £90 profit. GENIUS!
