He wouldn’t budge so I cancelled and booked a ticket with United instead. Delta is an utter clusterf**k of an airline.
Was it less than 14 days? While UK is no longer part of EU, EU law was made UK law, including EC261. As was booked on VS there would be protections for cancellation. I would recommend contacting UK equivalent to US DOT.
