Got a cheque today from British Airways!

About 12 or so months ago (maybe longer), people posted on here that if you flew long haul with British Airways, during a certain period you may be due a small refund for fuel tax or something.

Well i flew to New York during the time period (2005) and thought i would fill in the online form.

After forgetting all about it, i received a cheque today for £7.51 - granted, it wont make me rich, but every little helps they say!
I think someone somewhere said that during that period BA charged customers too much fuel tax, hence the chance to get a refund :)

    Interesting - I didn't realise that people were getting more than one cheque.

    I got one for £85 last week- so some more would be very welcome!
