I will keep everyone posted ....... but it sounds as if I may be waiting a while to get the payment that I was promised would be available immediately !!!

update .....
I have just received an email from BA stating that the 400eu will be paid into my bank account.
I will post when it arrives !
Unfortunately, there is no mention of the refund of expenses so I have contacted them again to chase this up and will keep everyone informed on progress.

The £358 just arrived in my bank account today ...... more than seven weeks after the original flight. Not quite the "cash card that can be used immediately" but at least I now have the money.
I have received another email implying that I will receive the promised refund of seat reservation and car hire charge for late arrival.
Watch this space and I will let you know how much longer that takes.
No offer of recompense was made for the hours of telephone time and the inconvenience/stress caused by the impossibility of contacting Customer Relations.
I guess we'll all think twice about volunteering next time.
