That was my understanding of "joint and several liability".

I understand the practicality of notifying and obtaining a PIR with the last carrier and seeking to claim from them.
i suspect you would need to show evidence of having tried to follow the process first

My view would be , if you can show you failed with AM , you can then take a case to BA, if that then fails then that may open up other avenues.

But based on the first post, the OP seemed to by trying to deal with BA in the first instance and BA was telling them to talk to AM.
