Like many others I was offered a refund or voucher which is no use to me. Under (EC) 261/2004, if its not within the airlines "control" then compensation is not payable!!! Has this happened to anyone else and whats the next course of action! Many thanks :-)
Take the refund, doubt you'll get compensation above that.
