or
(b) additionally, they know that the cause of delay is not 'exceptional circumstances' and that a claim stands a reasonable chance of success
or
(c) additionally, they know that BA have already admitted liability and paid up to other claimants.
For your example only.
A) Yes
B) Yes
C) Yes
and a lot more!
From my experience it is very accurate.
I know that a great deal of effort goes into the accuracy of their database, as it is key to their business. Which is also why much detail is not in the public domain.
