got compensation, but my friend got more???

laramartin

Hi all,
I was lucky enough to have had a holiday to florida, which was delayed for 4 + hours.
I put in a claim, although initially rejected, CAA got involved and I got a cheque for £250 each (which is a 3 hour delay). I assumed they believed the flight must have been 3 hours delayed, as I had no proof. My friend was on the holiday/flight with us (seperate booking, just a coincidence!!). So as a good friend I told her of the payout, and she claimed, and got a cheque for £500 each (total of £1500 for 3 people, I had 3 people and got £750). So my question is, can I contact Virgin and ask for more? as I have proof they paid more? or as my cheque said 'full and final settlement' I cant do anything.
I just cant believe two different payouts for the same delay????
any help would be gratefully received.
many thanks

Better to post this on the Virgin thread, and to let us know which flight you are talking about.
