Money Moral Dilemma: Should I share the vouchers from my complaint win?

  • If the compensation was cash, I would share the reward if you both paid towards the flight.

    But a voucher? Most people probably wouldn't even use it (me!) so I wouldn't bother doing anything.
  • You earned it you keep it simple.
  • You did the work, your relationship has ended so just keep it.
  • To carry on from who paid for the flights... if you paid for the flights, you keep the compensation. If you both paid half or some portion each, split the comp accordingly. That would be the honest, and kind, thing to do.
    Absolutely in total agreement with this post.

    This is not a moral dilemma....... You took the initiative, you did the work, you are no longer together. Have fun...

    After a hellish flight, I complained about the service. My partner at the time said that we wouldn't get anywhere but now, after we've broken up, I've been sent a £200 voucher. Should I share it, even though I did all the legwork?

    See it's things like this that are the reason you're single.
  • Not a chance! You keep it. Enjoy!

    Keep the voucher, spend it all on alcohol and get wasted. The hangover will be your contrition.
  • If you only complained about your flight and not both of your flights and also who paid for flights. If your ex-partner paid for their own flight then they should get their share of the voucher.

    For starters if your questioning your moral obligation then maybe you think they deserve compensation as they experienced what you did on flight. However if your trying to avoid them, have a clean break and will never consider getting back together then maybe use vouchers to spoil future partner.

    However if I paid for my own train or flight and I was entitled to compensation and someone else got my share as they complained for us both then I would not find them trustworthy if they did not give my share to me.

    I expect to be treated the way the other person wants to be treated and I'm sure you would want your entitlement.
