They calculated that i will be refunded 3470SEK for this witch i dont feel like its right. It should be the whole fare witch i payed for the 75% will be calculated on?
According to wording of regulation

If an operating air carrier places a passenger in a class
lower than that for which the ticket was purchased, it shall
within seven days, by the means provided for in Article 7(3),
reimburse
.
.
.
(c) 75 % of the price of the ticket for all flights not falling
under (a) or (b), including flights between the European
territory of the Member States and the French overseas
departments.

I would write back to them stating the obligations under tha regulation and inform that if 75% of the price of the ticket is not refunded within 7 days then you will take action to recover the amount

If they wish to claim 75% of the price of the sector , the price excluding taxes for a ticket from ARN-DXB is SEK21083
