They are correct that you can request reimbursement after 5 hours. The issue is they are conflating that with cash compensation due, which is incorrect.
Indeed, they have mentioned a different rule to EU 261 and stated that this rule means no compensation is due under EU law. This is factually and legally incorrect.
