Williams Car

There was a car sitting outside when we went out. however the driver had told the staff he was waiting for someone called Williams. After waiting sometime, especially seeing the "A2B" sign in the window I went and showed the driver our booking, but after looking he said no.
That makes no sense as according to the gps the Williamson car left before you went outside.
Looks like they are covering something up
How do you know those times were not just enterd manually0 -

Personally, I reckon the second driver (our car) was given the name of Williams. That would explain why there was an A2B car waiting outside when we went out at 1845hrs.
Realising the error, the Turkish supplier has changed things so they don't lose any money and have to pay for our Taxi to the airport.
The issue now is, who do I send the Letter Before Action to. I have queried this with Sunshine and waiting their reply. If they say it has to be sent to A2B, i'll then query it with them, however I have a a feeling im going to be left in limbo with them saying it has to be sent to the other party.
My logic is that I booked and paid Sunshine, so I will send it to them, then its upto them to claim it from their supplier.
Section 75? Did we ask about that already? Or covered by ABTA/ATOL? (cant remember which one deals with complaints)
Tbh if you're unsure at all, send a LBA to both of them and name them both as defendants - let the courts sort it out!You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means - Inigo Montoya, The Princess Bride0 -
Can you not name both as co-defendants?
Edit: I didn't refresh before posting, so didn't see devil woman's reply.

I've looked into ABTA. Apparently stages 1-5 of their complaints process isn't binding. If you move onto stage 6, then it is binding, however you have to pay for it to move onto this stage, which in this case would cost £108 - So much cheaper to go via the Small Claims route.
I'll see what they come back with, then i'll go through stages 1-5 so the judge will see i've tried all attempts to resolve the issue.
Section 75 if you have a claim against the supplier, you have a "like" claim against the creditor - meaning that yes, they'd be liable for losses incurred due to breach of contract and wouldn't be able to limit their liability to the portion actually paid for the transfers.
