We solve all your doubts, so we are on the same page

You don’t have to worry about a thing, from start to finish. There are several stages in the process. We’ll be in touch at least once a month or each time there are updates on your claim. You’ll always have access through your account.

The first step is to lodge an out-of-court complaint to try to reach an agreement. If this is not possible, we’ll proceed to make a claim. If the claim is admitted for processing by the judge, he/she will inform the respondent about the trial. In some cases, your presence may be required. If so, we’ll let you know in advance and give you all the necessary information. After this, the judge will issue a ruling. And if it’s favourable, the deadline to recover your money starts.

It’ll depend on the type of claim and the court’s caseload. Some claims will be resolved in months, others may take years.

No. You don’t have to pay a single euro in advance. We’ll upfront all costs, including the solicitor and power of attorney. You’ll only pay our fees if you win your claim.

It depends on how many requests each court is facing. In some the process takes longer, and others are faster.

There are two ways:

• You receive it directly. In this case, you should let us know so we can send you our settlement fee.
• A deposit is made to the court and we receive it. In this case, we’ll pass on the amounts to you along with our settlement fee.

They’re costs incurred by each of the parties involved in legal proceedings. These are the fees of Lawyers, Court representatives, and expert witness fees (if necessary). As well as copies, court notices or registered faxes, among others. When the court allocates costs, it means the losing party has to pay these expenses for the opposing party.

That’s why we always give you the option to include our insurance. So you don’t have to worry if your claim is unsuccessful. We’ll cover all costs that may be incurred against you.

So you can file your claim free of charge, we take on a huge financial burden. What’s more, plaintiffs in mass claims try to delay compensation payments for as long as possible. While knowing that this means our chances of incurring heavy losses will increase.

That’s why, if the court allows it, we retain the interest and court costs imposed on the other party as fees, under article 44.2 of the Spanish General Statute of the Legal Profession. This ensures continuity in our project. And that everyone can access justice to defend their rights in an easy, convenient, and affordable way.

It is a power of attorney that you grant us so that we can represent you and carry out your claim. It has no cost and is 100% online. You can do it in two ways:

• We can generate it for you following a few simple steps.
• You can generate it yourself if you have the digital certificate through the Electronic Judicial Headquarters.

You decide. Whichever option you choose, we will explain you how to do it step by step during the claim process.

We’ll let you know the status of your claim at least once a month by email or text message. And you can access your account whenever you want. In real-time. All-year-round. You’re in control. We’re transparent from start to finish.

The Estimated Date of Termination of your claim is calculated based on an algorithm developed by in99.

• First, anonymized data from recent files from other clients presented in the same Court is consulted based on multiple factors. The number of steps in the proceedings are predicted and the number of days remaining until payment assigned considering the speed of response from that Court.
• If the algorithm does not find sufficient recent data, it will then assign a series of days by default for each step. The algorithm considers the time required to reach a final ruling, execute the ruling and to process the payment from the Court to your bank account in case of a successful outcome.  

Yes, it is completely normal and a sign that the algorithm is working correctly.

Like the navigation system in your smartphone or car that calculates an Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) to your destination, our algorithm considers a multitude of factors to provide you with an Estimated Date of Termination of the claim. In a navigation system, the initial estimate considers factors such as the route, kilometers to destination, average speed on each road and even the density of the traffic if they are sophisticated enough. However, you may be halfway of the journey and it is normal to find that these factors are slightly different than originally estimated and therefore resulting in an updated Estimated Time of Arrival (your speed may be faster or slower than originally estimated, the traffic density higher or lower than estimated, etc …). The Estimated Time of Arrival changes as frequently as these factors change. Our algorithm that calculates the Estimated Date of Completion works in a similar way. As in a navigation system, the closer we get to the destination, the more precise and reliable the estimate becomes as the margin for these factors to change narrows down. In other words, the closer we are to the Estimated Date of Completion of your claim, the more precise and reliable the forecast will become.  

Please note that in any case the date is a mere automated estimate that is calculated based on multipole factors, which may not develop as expected. Thus, we do not recommend that you make any plans fully relying on these estimates, and we disclaim any type of responsibility otherwise.  

As frustrating as it is, changes to the estimated completion date are completely out of our control. 

We have a shared interest, not only in winning your claim. The sooner the better. Our fee system is based on “no win, no pay” and we anticipate all the costs of your claim. This means that the longer the claim lasts, the more uneconomic it will be for us. 

In this regard, you can be sure that we share your frustration if the completion date of your claim is delayed. The only thing we can do is continue to keep you informed at all times to the best of our knowledge. 

All documents that you want to submit to your claim must meet the following requirements:

• Be complete. In other words, the file you upload must contain all the pages of the document.
• It must be clear and legible. Good lighting makes the text easier to read. Avoid uploading folded or cut documents. This can impede the correct reading of the text.
• Be correct. We recommend that you check the doc before sending. This way you can make sure that the document we ask for corresponds to the document you are going to upload.

The documents you share with us will be the ones we will present to the court with your claim. That’s why they need to be clear and legible. In other words, they must be clearly readable.

You can get a clear photograph if you:

• Focus clearly on the document right from above
• With no objects around it
• With a clear or white background that allows proper visibility

Here is an example of a legible document.

For heavier documents or documents with a larger number of pages, we recommend uploading the file in pdf format.

If you don’t have a scanner at hand, we show you other alternatives:

• If your mobile is iPhone, with the Notes app you can easily scan your documents. Here you have more information.
• If you have an Android phone, you can use the Adobe Scan app. You can download it here. This application unifies and converts the photographs of the document you want to scan with your device into pdf.
• Go to your nearest copy shop with the documentation you wish to provide us with. You can ask them to scan all the documentation and send the file to your email in pdf format. Here you can find the copy shops closest to you.

It may happen that the document you have uploaded is not exactly the one we need for the claim. You can check if the title of the document we request matches the document you have uploaded.

If you have a variable rate mortgage and your instalments have barely changed since 2008, it is more than likely that you have a ‘floor clause’. You can find out by checking the deed for your mortgage loan. It would appear under “limits to interest rate variance”.

You can send us your mortgage loan deed with our form. It will take you less than 99 seconds. We will analyse the unfair terms of your mortgage and file a claim for all of them. This way, we make sure you are getting the maximum amount you are entitled to.

The problem stems from the fact that many banks don’t provide clear information on the existence of this clause, or its implications. This practice is punishable by law. If a clause does not pass the transparency test, a judge would classify it as unfair, and therefore null and void. If this is the case, you can claim.

The aim is to obtain a favourable ruling to annul this ‘floor clause’ in your mortgage if you are still paying back the amounts owed. You can reclaim your money back even if you have already paid it off.

Yes. If the judge declares the ‘floor clause’ to be null and void, you can claim even if you have signed an agreement. The same rule applies if you have reached an out-of-court settlement and you are not satisfied with the offer received. Or if they have refused to reimburse your money. In such cases, you can always resort to the courts, to make a claim for everything you are entitled to.

A very high percentage of these types of claims are accepted. However, it is difficult to predict exactly how the procedure will end.

What we can say is that we are very confident in what we do, and in how we do it. That’s why we are committed to our no No Win No Fee policy. In addition, during the process, you can always include our legal expenses insurance. This way you’ll have nothing to worry about in the unlikely event that your claim is unsuccessful.

It depends on the judge’s decision in regard to the transparency test of the affected clause. If the judge considers that it does not pass said test, it will be declared unfair, and therefore null and void. This means that you would get your money back.

According to the Spanish Supreme Court, the clause cannot pass the transparency test if you do not have a qualified financial operator profile and:

1. You have not been thoroughly informed of the implications of
   the ‘floor clause’.
2. You have not received simulations for different scenarios on
   how the ‘floor clause’ can affect you.
3. You have not been given clear information beforehand. Nor
   have they compared your loan with other types of mortgages offered
   by the bank.
4. The clause is located amidst an overwhelming amount of
   information that keeps it camouflaged.

Yes, in fact, you can combine both in your claim. This would increase the amount of money to be reimbursed.

You can send us your mortgage loan deed with our form. It will take you less than 99 seconds. We will analyse the unfair terms of your mortgage and file a claim for all of them. This way, we make sure you are getting the maximum amount you are entitled to.

All you have to do is fill out our form, with the information we ask from you. You will reach a point where we will ask you to attach the following documentation if you have it. If not, we will let you know how to obtain it during the process.

1. The deed for the mortgage loan
2. Your last mortgage payment slip
3. Any communication you have exchanged with your bank
4. The agreement with the bank
5. The repayment table

If you also want to reclaim your mortgage costs, we will also need:

1. The appraisal certificate for the property
2. The invoice for the land registry.
3. The invoice for the notary public
4. The invoice for any agency fees

In all mortgage claims, the principal document that must be provided is the deed of the mortgage loan. It is important not to confuse it with the title deed.

To identify the mortgage loan deed, we should look at the title of the document itself. This usually refers to “Escritura de préstamo hipotecario”.

Here is an example of a mortgage loan deed.

The title deed can be identified in the same way. The title refers to “Escritura de Compraventa”. Here is an example. And we like to stress the fact that this is not the document we need.

Note: there are deeds entitled as “Escritura de compraventa con garantía hipotecaria, subrogación, novación o ampliación”. These deeds, although they contain the word “compraventa” in the title, would also be valid to claim certain abusive mortgage clauses. Here is an example.

You can claim most of the costs of setting up your mortgage. These are the agency fees, notaryfees (only 50%), registration fees, appraisal fees and arrangement fee.

If you have or have ever had a mortgage loan, it is very likely that you have paid incorporation expenses and set up costs. This is because banks often include it as a clause within mortgage loans

You can start your claim by filling in our form. It will take you less than 99 seconds. We will analyse the unfair terms of your mortgage and file a claim for all of them. This way, we make sure you are getting the maximum amount you are entitled to.

The Spanish Supreme Court considers that the party who benefits the most from registering the mortgage deed is the bank. Therefore, it must bear most of these costs.

If your mortgage was signed before 10 November 2018, you cannot claim this tax. The Spanish Supreme Court ruled that in this case the buyer is liable for payment.

A very high percentage of these types of claims are accepted. However, it is difficult to predict exactly how the procedure will end.

What we can say is that we are very confident in what we do, and in how we do it. That’s why we are committed to our no No Win No Fee policy. In addition, during the process, you can always include our legal expenses insurance. This way you’ll have nothing to worry about in the unlikely event that your claim is unsuccessful.

The aim is to obtain a favourable ruling, declaring the clause which imposed these costs on you, null and void. You will be able to recover all or a part of these amounts

All you have to do is fill out our form with the information we ask from you. You will reach a point where we will ask you to attach this documentation if you have it. If not, we will let you know how you can obtain it during the process.

To claim mortgage costs you’ll need:

1. The deed for the mortgage loan
2. The repayment table
3. The invoice for the land registry
4. The invoice for the notary public
5. The invoice for any agency fees
6. The appraisal certificate

In all mortgage claims, the invoices that must be provided are those associated with the mortgage loan. It is important not to confuse these with the invoices associated with the title or sales deed.

To identify the invoices related to the mortgage loan deed, we must look at the title of the document. The title usually refers to “mortgage”, “mortgage loan”.

Here is an example of an invoice for notary fees.

Here is an example of a registration invoice.

Indeed, we have had many successful outcomes on revolving credit card claims. Every client is different. The end result and amount recovered will depend on your situation. However, we can confirm that these claims have a high success rate. These are just some of the cases we have won:  

• Noelia from Malaga. The judge ordered Cetelem to declare the interest clauses as null and void, and to remove them from the contract, as well as reimburse Noelia an amount of € 13,597.92. You can find the decision here
• Antonio de Boadilla del Monte, Madrid. This time around, it was WiZink who had to pay Antonio €16,756.88 in compensation. You can find the decision here 
• Jorge from Malaga. We did it again and, together, we managed to get WiZink to reimburse him €7,768.58. You can find the decision here

You can find out by considering the following:

1. Your card has excessive interest rates. Between 20% and 30% APR*.
2. There is a lack of transparency in what you have contracted. For example, if the term or the amount due are not easily identified.
3. The payments never end. You can’t see an end to the outstanding debt.

*Annual percentage rate.

You can start your claim by filling in our form. It will take you less than 99 seconds.

To find out whether a credit card is subject to excessive interest rates, we must analyse the card’s details. There are certain revolving credit cards that seem eligible to claim: WiZink, revolving Cetelem, revolving Citibank, Cofidis, and the Carrefour Pass. Even so, every card should be examined.  

These are just examples. It’s likely that one of the cards you have in your wallet is affected. Regardless of the financial institution. If you have accepted a very low fixed monthly fee, you may be paying excessive interest with each day that passes. 

Mainly because you were charged excessive interest rates. The Spanish Supreme Court determined that an interest rate is considered excessive if it is significantly higher than average market interest rates. And this is what occurs with revolving credit cards.

A very high percentage of these types of claims are accepted. However, it is difficult to predict exactly how the procedure will end.

What we can say is that we are very confident in what we do, and in how we do it. That’s why we are committed to our no No Win No Fee policy. In addition, during the process, you can always include our legal expenses insurance. This way you’ll have nothing to worry about in the unlikely event that your claim is unsuccessful.

The goal is to cancel your revolving credit card contract and get reimbursed for the money you have overpaid. Since the interest rate is so high, we could be talking about significant amounts.

Your claim’s outcome will always depend on the individual circumstances of your case. Perhaps you haven’t paid back everything you have borrowed. In this case, it’s possible that there isn’t anything to be reimbursed by the financial institution.  

What do we do if this is the case? We apply for the interest rate to be declared null and void. Therefore, you would no longer have to pay interest. This means you will pay less on the outstanding debt or, in other words, pay only the amount initially taken out. Interest-free.  

So, if you’re in a similar situation, it is in your best interest to make a claim. This way, even if you don’t get any money back, you could still pay less and settle your debt. What’s more, with in99 you don’t have to pay a single euro upfront. We only get paid if your case is won. And if you’re worried about losing your case, we offer a legal fee insurance policy to cover the trial costs, in the unlikely event that you don’t win. Without any risks.   

All you have to do is fill out our form with the information we ask from you. You will reach a point where we will ask you to attach this documentation if you have it. If not, we will let you know how you can obtain it during the process.

1. Credit card agreement/contract or account statement or debt repayment table or last receipt of payment for the card . Only one of these documents is required.

To make a claim on a revolving credit card, you’ll need certain supporting documents.  

You will need to provide the contract you signed with the financial institution. If you don’t have your contract, another option is the amortisation table. This will show all the movements on your revolving credit card. This information will allow us to calculate how much you have overpaid.  

You also have the option to send us your statements/settlements and we will take care of looking for the rest of the information for you. You can generally find these bank statements on your online account.  

What can you do if you don’t have the contract or the amortisation table? In this case, you should contact the financial institution that offered you the line of credit and ask for a copy of both documents (your contract and amortisation table). 

This request can be done both at the branch or online via their website.  

When you manage to get in touch with them to ask for a copy of the documents, they will know that you need them to make a claim and they are likely to offer you a settlement. Our advice is to not sign any agreement, no matter how good it may seem. You may find yourself unknowingly giving up your right to take legal action and what they offered you was simply a reduced interest rate. This will then make it impossible for you to defend your rights as a consumer. 

No, they’re two separate things. If you have a credit card and you purchase something, you pay the financial entity the amount due the following month. And the debt is paid off.

If you have a revolving credit card, you pay back the borrowed amounts in several instalments
with high interest rates. As a result, your debt is dragged out over time.

This will depend on the card’s use. If you used it to make business-related payments, such as paying suppliers or self-employment taxes, we would have to take a closer look at your case.  

It is a mortgage loan taken out with a bank in a foreign currency, usually in yen or Swiss francs, and is indexed by the Libor. If you have one, it is more than likely that you have paid more than you would if you had a mortgage in euros and indexed by the Euribor.

You can start your claim by filling in our form. It will take you less than 99 seconds.

The Spanish Supreme Court and the Court of Justice of the European Union have ruled on the matter. They declared that multi-currency mortgages must be converted into euros if they do not pass the transparency test. This occurs when the consequences of taking it out have not been clearly and plainly explained. And, if you aren’t a financial or currency exchange expert.

Your monthly mortgage repayments vary constantly. This is due to fluctuations in the currency in which you have taken out the loan.

Over the past few years, exchange rates have not been unfavourable. This has led to substantial increases in your monthly instalments, as well as in the total amount owed. What’s more, the more time that passes, the more it will increase.

Our recommendation is that you claim. You can start by filling in our form. It will take you less than 99 seconds.

The aim is to annul the section of the contract on foreign currency in order to:

1. Convert your mortgage to euros.
2. Reduce your monthly repayments.
3. Get back the money you have overpaid.

A very high percentage of these types of claims are accepted. However, it is difficult to predict exactly how the procedure will end.

What we can say is that we are very confident in what we do, and in how we do it. That’s why we are committed to our no No Win No Fee policy. In addition, during the process, you can always include our legal expenses insurance. This way you’ll have nothing to worry about in the unlikely event that your claim is unsuccessful.

Our recommendation is to not sign anything. You should know that if you take the settlement, it is very likely that you’ll be giving up a large part of the claim.

All you have to do is fill out our form with the information we will ask from you. You will reach a point where we will ask you to attach this documentation if you have it. If not, we will let you know how you can obtain it during the process.

1. The deed for your mortgage loan. This is essential.
2. The last instalment slip or repayment table.

Between 2006 and 2013, major car manufacturers joined forces under the name El Club de las Marcas (‘The Brand Club’) with one main objective: to form a cartel. They controlled price fixing of the motor vehicles market for 7 years. As a result, millions of people overpaid for their car, much more than they would have if it weren’t for these abusive practices.

The brands concerned made up for 90% of the market share. These are Citroën, Mitsubishi, BMW, Chevrolet, Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Lancia, Ford, Opel, Honda, Hyundai, Kia, Mazda, Mercedes, Nissan, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Seat, Toyota, Lexus, Audi, Volkswagen, Škoda and Volvo.

If you bought, leased or rented one or more cars between 2006 and 2013, it is more than likely that you paid more than you should have. You can start your claim by filling in our form. It will take you less than 99 seconds.

Yes, even if you’ve sold your car you can claim to get back the money you overpaid.

Anyone who has acquired one or more cars either by purchasing, leasing or renting one of the cartel’s brands between 2006 and 2013. Regardless of whether it was from an individual, a self-employed operator or a company.

It depends. If all the vehicles belong to the same company, you will only have to file one claim. If you have purchased many cars from different companies, you’ll have to submit a claim for each company.

In theory, yes. It’s a slightly more complicated process than with new cars, which is why we’d have to review your case in more detail. You can start you claim by filling in our form. It will take you less than 99 seconds.

If you have a viable case you can get back around 10% to 15% of the car’s price.

A very high percentage of these types of claims are accepted. However, it is difficult to predict exactly how the procedure will end.

What we can say is that we are very confident in what we do, and in how we do it. That’s why we are committed to our no No Win No Fee policy. In addition, during the process, you can always include our legal expenses insurance. This way you’ll have nothing to worry about in the unlikely event that your claim is unsuccessful.

All you have to do is fill out our form with the information that we will ask from you. You willreach a stage where we will ask you to attach this documentation if you have it. If not, we will let you know how you can obtain it during the process.

1. Document stating the total price of the vehicle, such as an invoice or the financing,
   leasing or renting contract.
2. Technical specifications.
3. Vehicle registration certificate (recommended).
4.  If sold, proof of sale stating the price (recommended).

If you are unemployed or on sick leave, you should get in touch with the insurer to inform them of your situation. You will also need to know the deadlines and what documentation you’ll need to submit your application. After this, they should cover your instalments and provide a monthly notice detailing the coverage.

If this is not the case, we can help you defend your rights and claim what you are legally entitled to. You can begin by filling in our form. It takes less than 99 seconds.

It is an insurance policy that will cover all or part of your monthly instalments on your loan if you lose your job, or if you are on leave due to illness or injury.

The main issue with this type of insurance is that it is often included without the customer’s prior consent. Also, they often contain a number of coverage exclusions, i.e. specific situations in which the insurer will not be liable for paying out. They can add it to your contract even when they know you are affected by one of these exclusions.

You can start your claim by filling in our form. It will take you less than 99 seconds.

Although it is mostly included in mortgages, you can find this type of insurance in all kinds of loans. This is why we advise you to review all of your loan applications for the purchase of property to be repaid in monthly instalments. Such as, for the purchase of a vehicle. Even your housing rental agreement may include PPI.

No. This will be determined on a case-by-case basis and should be taken into account when signing. Read carefully through any coverage exclusions, waiting periods, if there are deductibles, the term period, and the maximum amounts that are insured. Such information must be concisely and transparently stated in the contract.

No, this type of insurance does not cover parental leave. It only covers the instalments of an employee who is unable to perform his/her duties due to sickness or injury. This will be subject to a doctor’s note issued by the Spanish Social Security.

No. This insurance is limited to workers who are in one of the following situations:

1. People who are self-employed with over 6 months of tax contributions.
2. Employees with a permanent contract.
3. Employees with a fixed-term contract who have been with the company
   for over 6 months.
4. Civil servants.
5. There are some exceptions, such as permanent seasonal workers, offered
   only by certain companies

If you are displeased with this policy and you haven’t taken it out knowingly and voluntarily, you can and should file a claim. You can start by filling in our form. It will take you less than 99 seconds.

As with any claim, it is difficult to predict how the procedure will pan out.

What we can say is that we are very confident in what we do. And in how we do it. That’s why we are committed to our No Win No Fee policy. What’s more, during the process you can include our legal expenses insurance. This way you won’t have to worry about a thing in the unlikely event that your claim is unsuccessful.

All you have to do is fill in our form with the information we will ask from you. You will reach a point where we will ask you to attach this documentation if you have it. If not, we will let you know how you can obtain it during the process.

1. Your PPI contract.
2. The loan contract linked to your policy.
3. Payment slip. Or last receipt if it’s paid in instalments.

There are two regulations in force to assess how much and how passengers will be compensated by airlines. This will depend on the territory from which the flight took off/landed:

1. Regulation 261/2004 of the European Union.
   For flights that are operated by European companies, regardless of the place of departure or destination. Or for flights departing from a European airport.
2. The Montreal Convention.
   For flights operated by non-European companies and departing from somewhere outside the European Union.

The vast majority of flight claims are subject to EU regulations. Most claims for flight delays and cancellations are focused on low-cost airlines. And these are the destinations most frequented.

In each case, the first thing we must take into account is the duration. You’re entitled to compensation for up to €600 when:

1. Your flight has been delayed 3 or more hours.
2. Your flight has been cancelled and you were given less than 14 days’ notice. If you have expenses incurred from the incident, you can claim them. Even if you were notified in time.

Through the Montreal Convention, it’s more complicated to estimate compensation, since it doesn’t specify the amount for delays or cancellations. Therefore, it’s up to the judge to decide the amount of compensation for the incident. In this case, we recommend claiming for delays over 12 hours.

You can also find out by filling out our form. It will take you less than 99 seconds. We will let you know if you are eligible to file a claim and an estimated amount. Free of charge and with no obligation.

If you arrived on time at the boarding gate and your documentation was in order, you can and should claim. Even if you were boarded on a different plane. As long as you didn’t voluntarily avoid boarding the plane. And if you arrived at your destination with, at least, a 3-hour delay.

Eu regulations foresee compensation for flight delays, cancellation, and overbooking. This is calculated based on the kilometres between the flight origin and destination:

• Less than 1,500 km = €250.
• 1,500-3,500 km = €400.
• More than 3,500 km = €600

You can also find out by filling out our form. It will take you less than 99 seconds. We will let you know if you are eligible to file a claim and an estimated amount. Free of charge and with no obligation.

Apart from compensation, you have other rights, depending on the case.

Delays:

• If you’re delayed by more than 5 hours and you don’t want to board the plane, you
  have the right to cancel your flight. And be reimbursed or be offered an alternative
  means of transportation.
• If your flight does not take off until the following day, you’re entitled to one night’s
  hotel accommodation as well as airport transfers. These services are usually provided
  by the airline. We recommend checking before booking anything yourself.

Cancellation and overbooking:

• You have the right to cancel your flight if you no longer wish to travel. You can get a full
  refund or be offered alternative transport on the same date.
• For overbooked flights, the airline is likely to offer you a deal or compensation. We
  advise you not to accept it. Doing so will prevent you from making a claim and
  recovering all the money you’re entitled to.

Whatever your case may be, you can also claim:

• Expenses incurred from the incident such as hotels, taxis, car rentals, missed
  excursions, or meals at the airport, among others.
• Damages such as missed days of work, leave, meetings, job interviews, or events,
  among others.

Even if you no longer have your boarding pass, you can ask your airline for a boarding certificate. For this, you’ll need to make a written request to your airline. It’s important that you include the following information:

• Name, surname, and ID number.
• Booking reference and flight path.

On average, it takes one year. This will depend on many factors, such as if the airline is willing to reach an out-of-court settlement or not.

These are extraordinary circumstances for which a flight may be delayed or cancelled. These are the only cases where it’s not possible to file a claim.

• Closure of the airport or airspace.
• Unavoidable security risks.
• Political turmoil.
• Adverse weather conditions.
• Impact of birds on the engine.

According to European regulations you have up to 5 years to make your claim from the date of the incident, regardless of whether it’s due to a delay, cancellation, or overbooking.

Through the Montreal Convention, you only have 2 years.

Your ID card or passport and your flight tickets or boarding pass are enough to justify and claim your flights.
To speed up the claim process, it’s advised to have one of the following documents at hand:

• Booking confirmation with all the flight numbers, dates, times, and passenger IDs.
• If the incident took place on the first leg and you missed your connecting flight, or the
  tickets for the flight you were rebooked on to reach your destination.
• To claim additional expenses you’ll always have to prove the actual arrival time at your
  final destination and attach your airline tickets.
• If you were travelling with minors, your Spanish family book (Libro de familia) or birth
  certificate.
• A copy of the claim made at the airport.
