Holiday Compensation : Get What You're Entitled To
Holiday Compensation : Get What You're Entitled To
Sometimes your holiday turns out to be less fun than you expected it to be. Perhaps you were unhappy with your hotel or the services provided by your tour operator. Under these circumstances you might expect the tour company to take a little money off your bill or perhaps to offer you something to appease you. This usually does not happen and there are a couple of reasons as to why. First of all, tour operators and hotel management are as worried about the economic downturn as you and I. At this point, it's easier to worry about money than it is to worry about whether you will provide them with repeat business and don't want to give back money they may very soon be needed. Secondly, more people are making their own travel arrangements rather than relying on travel agencies or tour operators. Should you be dissatisfied with accommodations or such, an agency or operator can certainly attempt to pressure the hotel to hand back some money. If you're booking yourself, it's unlikely that you'll have the clout that an agent has. This does not mean that you should just "roll over and play dead." If, for some reason, you have been led to believe one thing but were faced with another, or if you were not treated well by an agency, the law is with you and there are things you can do to get some money back. Follow the steps below and you may soon find yourself with some compensation.
- Don't delay. It's best to make your complaints while you're still on holiday so that whoever it is with whom you have a problem can take care of the problem while you are still on holiday.
- Find evidence. Write notes, take photos and videos. You should also call witnesses if necessary.
- Don't make the complaint too elaborate. State your problem simply and succinctly.
- Keep the message clear. Tell them exactly how you've come to the conclusion that your contract has been broken.
- Stay cool. Staying calm will give you the appearance of reason which will serve you well in a court or mediation hearing.
If the person that you are dealing is being unreasonable, and is unwilling to appropriately deal with your grievances, then you are well within your rights to proceed with legal action against them. You can take them to court and have a judge decide on the amount of compensation that should be paid to you. If you have followed the steps set out above then your chances of success are extremely high and you can expect to receive a sum that will adequately cover the losses and inconveniences that you have suffered.
