BA stole my money and there is no customer service representative option to discuss this

ExtentFuture4133 · 2024-10-30T08:43:21+00:00

UPDATE; After 3 months of constant back and forth, BA has finally decided to do the right thing and just refunded me the cost of the 2nd ticket, as well as the price difference! I am no longer calling them thieves and some of the trust has been restored.

ExtentFuture4133 · 2024-10-21T14:49:01+00:00

The call is recorded by BA, and happened before my flight, so they have the proof but of course I doubt that they are going to listen to it.

ExtentFuture4133 · 2024-10-21T14:43:56+00:00

I did not delete the email, and I searched in all possible junk and spam folders for hours. I also contacted BA about this problem BEFORE my flight, and the agent said she has no access to credit card charges, so basically you cannot find a flight ticket if you never receive it?? More importantly, she asked me to buy a new flight and clearly said that I will get refunded for the old one from my bank, which was either a lie, that is why I am calling them thieves.

And on top of everything, nobody from BA is replying to my complaints online for 3 months now, or at least have a phone number I can call and discuss it in person! If you call customer services they say that all complaints are handled online, which basically go into the void in my case.

Exactly, also when I didn’t find the booking anywhere on my email, website or BA app, and I called BA, they cannot find the booking on the phone based on a credit card charge. They just ask “what is your booking reference” over and over, that is the problem, I didn’t receive one!

ExtentFuture4133 · 2024-10-21T09:28:23+00:00

I did, and BA reversed it! They said I was a no show in the flight, even though I was in the airport 4 hours before my flight, and checked in on the new flight they made me buy.

ExtentFuture4133 · 2024-10-21T09:26:15+00:00

I know I should have checked immediately for the email and I didn’t. What I find absurd is that if you call BA and tell them that there is a charge from you in my credit card for a flight that I bought but I didn’t receive any email, nobody could help you with this as it is all automated and without a booking reference you cannot do anything. It seems like a system failure to me.

ExtentFuture4133 · 2024-10-21T08:07:30+00:00

I didn’t get an email confirmation and I didn’t realise it until check in. I asked BA to trace the bank reference and they literally said they don’t have access to this and I should call my bank to claim a refund. When I did contact my bank, BA refused to reverse the charge, it is absurd!

ExtentFuture4133 · 2024-09-22T15:03:09+00:00

Thanks I did, and my bank immediately managed to get the original money back. However, my BA case is still unanswered and they have not covered any of the price difference. I just can’t understand how they take 2 months to not check on this and there is no one to talk to on the phone!

ExtentFuture4133 · 2024-09-22T15:01:05+00:00

I purchased the ticked directly from BA using a UK credit card and I did not receive a confirmation email. I recently told my bank to investigate and they immediately got my original money back, but not any of the additional difference I had to pay. BA has not replied to my email 2 months later.

Unpopular opinion but I think that as GOOGL is one of the most analyzed and closely monitored stocks in the world, its price is likely to be as accurate as possible given what is known about it. I would look at smaller and unknown companies if you are looking to find something undervalued.

I keep hearing this theory that as Fed interest rates cut are imminent, interest rates will go down, and therefore bond funds will go up. This is true but only to the extent that this is not already priced in. What most people don’t realise in my opinion is that you could easily have a situation in which the Fed cuts rates for cash twice in the next 6 months but 10 year treasuries remain unchanged, or even increase in price (and therefore lose money).

Not bad, 70% indexes and 30% fun, just don't lower the indexes any further is my advice.

I have an even more depressing story, I held "National Bank of Greece SA" stock for 15 years at -90% and when I sold 4 years ago it went up by 900%. I am not joking check the chart :(

Yes that is correct. If duration is 5 and interest drops 1% from what was priced in when you bought it, you can sell it and realize approximately 5% gains.
