VI ricordate il mio bagaglio smarrito per 40 giorni nei meandri di CDG?
Beh, avevo fatto aprire un claim al customer service di AF in USA, allegando le ricevute delle mie spese (e quelle di Karina, e quelle della sua amica Irina).
Il 12 Luglio mi rispondono dicendo che mi rimborseranno 200 euro e infatti mi arriva l'assegno per $238.
Peccato che un'addetta al customer service al telefono mi aveva detto che mi potevano rimborsare fino a $1500.
Allora il 29 Luglio riscrivo ad Air France:
Dear blah blah blah,
I have received your letter informing me of my reimbursement. Thank you for your prompt response. As I mentioned in my previous correspondence, I am a loyal flyer of Air France and its Skyteam partners. I understand that, especially in times like these, security is a priority even if it is at a price of a slight inconvenience. However, the matter at hand is a case of disorganization and my disappointment stems from the inconsistency of information I have been receiving, as well as the lack of appreciation I have received from being a loyal and patient Air France customer.
I learned that my lost baggage has been in the Charles De Gaulle airport the whole duration of the 40 days that it was missing. On several occasions I have attempted to contact Air France and they have continuously told me that there are no bags matching my description at the airport in Paris. Once my bag was located, no one had called me to inform me of the fact. I was the one, after periodically checking the web site, who had discovered that the bag was located and had to contact your representatives for arrangements to be made for the bag to arrive to New York.
The flight on which my baggage was lost was very important for my professional life. I am a European Union citizen and I was coming on behalf of my New York office to the company headquarters in Europe. It was essential for me to have professional attire and to upkeep my appearances. The misallocation of the baggage had caused a tremendous amount of stress and incurred many expenses. I was told by Air France representatives that I would be reimbursed 200 euro for immediate expenses and then keep all of my receipts for the other expenses incurred during the trip. I did just that. I called the American office of Air France and they assured me that I will be reimbursed for all my purchases up to $1,500. That put me somewhat at ease, but I wasn’t surprised because I expected great service from Air France.
You can imagine my disappointment when I received a notice for a mere $238.00 from your airline. I am not going to cash this check because I am not accepting it. I hope this was a misunderstanding or a mistake on your part. I have incurred too many additional expenses on this trip because it was so needed for my professional life. It was also disappointing to know that there was no mistake with my lost baggage but that it was just sitting in the Paris Airport the entire time.
I have loyalty and trust in Air France that I will be reimbursed as promised for my expenses made necessary because of this incident. I thank you in advance for looking into this matter and look forward to flying with you again.
Sincerely,
Sarre
Ieri mi e' arrivata questa lettera datata 22 Agosto:

blah blah blah
