I set them another deadline and if I still have no luck I will go down the road of legal proceedings and a formal complaint via the LBA (german equivalent to CAA/FAA).
without knowing all the details of your case, but which compensation you think you are entitled to?
When an airline cancels a flight and re-routes you and informs you with at least 2 weeks notice, then you are not entitled to compensation. When I read article 5, I would mean that you could claim compensation in case the airline informs you with less than 2 weeks notice.
