I traveled from London(LHR) to Phoenix last month and my In Flight Entertainment was One of only a few on the plane that was broken the entire flight. It made for a miserable flight. The customer service manager onboard gave me an incident report and told me to contact BA. It's unfortunate that there was no USA address/office to handle these issues. So, I had to write to England using my time and expense. No phone or email link to file a grievance with them. I really get the feeling they are going to ignore my complaint. They have not acknowledged anything to me by phone, email, or postal mail. I may consider other options. But, I think they need to be more prompt in replying.

Below is the quoted excerpt from my complaint about equipment failure. British Airways accepted responsibility for the failure and made a generic apology after restating the facts in my letter. The response is disappointing and insulting. This is how the customer relations agent closed the letter:

"While I appreciate your reasons for asking, I'm afraid we are unable to offer you any compensation. I am sorry to disappoint you.

Thank you again for letting us know there was a problem. Incidents like this are rare but they are always unpleasant, and we hope that you and your travel companion will travel with us again in happier circumstances.

I have had five months of chasing BA. Waste of time.
