They offered me a handheld duffle bag that was less than £50 on their linked and over priced website (mine was a eastpak suitcase with wheels that cost £120 and matched my other bags ).

They then upped it to a hideous bag that was £75 on their website but would have been about £25 anywhere else.

They then sent my bag back despite me telling them that I didn't want it back. (total waste of time as I then had to take it to the refuse centre).
I then got referred back to BA. They refused to pay for the cost of a new like for like bag as it was over 5 years old (although little used). Eastpak have a 30 year warrantee and I have Eastpak that are over 20 years old and still going strong.
Finally I bought a replacement bag myself and told BA in no uncertain terms how annoyed I was. At that point having refused 3 times to pay anything they agreed to pay the price I had paid for the replacement. I was gold flying in paid 1st and honestly I nearly stopped flying with BA as I was so hacked off by it all- took hours on end.
I’ve included all the photos of the damage in the report sent to BA. I’ve kept the suitcase if they want it
I’ve got the receipt too. I can’t see my teenage daughter being happy with any of the cases on the links you mentioned!
