I was having difficulty getting the balance of a refund from Aer Lingus for a flight cancelled in June 2024. After writing twice to Aer Lingus with complete documentation, one letter was to the president of the airline, I received no response. Having seen Christopher Elliott's column in my local newspaper I went to their website and filled out their form. After submitting my full package of documentation, they presented my situation to Aer Lingus and I received the refund in 2 days! I was amazed at the thoroughness and speed at which they responded to me and the airline responded to Elliott Advocacy. I hope not to have a similar problem, but if I do I will call on them again.
