Here's How To Get Your Money Back From Those Long Flight Delays
Everyone who travels a lot knows how awful it is when you have excessive delays, especially when you have connecting flights.
Well, what if I told you that you could get half of your flight price back for those delays?
Obviously it is not fair when you wait nine hours on end for a delayed flight without even knowing when you’re going to take off, after paying hundreds of dollars for your flight.
There are laws to protect you against this, but they are lined with red tape.
Well, there is help. AirHelp and Refund. Me is here to the rescue.
No matter if you’re delayed, overbooked or canceled, Airlines will fight NOT to give you your money back but AirHelp wants to you help you to get what you deserve.
According to TechCrunch, consumers in Europe can earn up to $800 back. Meanwhile in the states costumers can get upwards $1,300 back.
It is possible to get the money back yourself, but the airlines fight you every step of the way and try to drive you to insanity. You may be entitled to that money but honey, it won’t come easy.
AirHelp customers only need to log in with their gmail account and the startup will automatically tap into their information after an authorization process. The startup takes away the need for customers to track down a bunch of seemingly unnecessary documents.
The company takes a 25 percent cut of its total back-earnings, which makes it sustainable but still helpful to consumers. This also means there is nothing to lose if you are scared you won’t be able to get anything. The startup only takes a percentage and not a standard fee.
After you allow AirHelp to access your files, the company will contact you with statistics and information. To move forward you will have to allow the company to have rights to handle the claim.
Refund.me operates the same by, filing complaints for customers who have flight delays
Originally, AirHelp required users to upload their own documents, but now its technology allows anyone to just hook up to its service for automatic integration through Gmail.
That means you hardly have to lift a finger to get all that money you deserve. We hope this was helpful! Let us know if you got your money back in the comments.
