To Whom It May Concern,My name is **** ** ****, and I was traveling on EVA *** with *** ****** *****. Due to a flight delay, our checked baggage was delayed and arrived three days late at our destination.The purpose of our trip was to attend our sons wedding, and we had purchased four bottles of **** as a wedding gift. However, due to the baggage delay, these four bottles did not reach us in time and were only returned to me after I had returned to ********** a result of the delay, we had to purchase essential daily necessities, which cost ***** *** (~$500 USD). [However, EVA *** miscalculated the amount, initially recognizing it as ***** *** (~$470 USD).] Additionally, since the original wedding gift (****) was not available in time, we had to purchase replacement gifts for our son, which cost approximately $235 USD. In total, we incurred additional expenses of about $735 USD.******* initially agreed to compensate us for the $735 USD, including the replacement gift expense. Furthermore, they stated that in order to refund me for the original four bottles of **** (valued at $300.47 USD), I had to return them to EVA ***. I agreed to this condition, but *** *** later changed its stance and refused to compensate for the replacement gift, despite it being a direct consequence of their baggage delay.Given that we acted in good faith and tried to reach a fair resolution, I am extremely disappointed by EVA ***s inconsistent responses and lack of sincerity in handling this claim. I am filing this complaint in hopes of resolving this matter properly.I request that ******* fully compensate for the $735 USD in incurred expenses as well as the $300.47 USD for the four bottles of ****, which is $1035.47 USD. I can return four bottles of **** to them. Sincerely,**** ** ************* *****Initial Complaint

I purchased tickets for an international flight months in advance and paid for additional bags and seat selection. After purchase I received an email that my seat selection had been reassigned despite me purchasing those seats and my other selections had been reset. Due to the poor service I wished to cancel my reservations but am only provided the options to receive a refund on the additional I paid for seat assignments when I use their online system. I have tried dozens of time to reach any of their offices within the US but none of the phone number for these offices connect - it always goes straight to hanging up after a message that the phone lines are busy.Business Response

I have purchased a round trip ticket flying with EVA **** The ticket was purchased through my travel agent. I wanted to upgrade the ticket using my miles online. But the online service said because the ticket was prepaid purchased by my travel agent, I needed to call EVA *** to process the upgrade. My ************ both tried to call the ******** Office number but no one picks up the phone, and when he tries to leave a message, he just gets disconnected. And he has made the same attempt for many times and many days, and no luck. And he even tried to call their LA office, no one picks up the call. And no way to leave a message. We are unable to reach anyone at EVA *** and that means I cannot use my miles to upgrade my ticket. But I have the miles and this is wrong! EVA *** needs to compensate me.Customer Answer

Hello, I flew to *************** via EVA Airways and paid for oversized baggage. I was happy to pay for the oversized baggage fee since my bag was >40kg. The agent at the counter at *** stated to me that my bag was on the plane. My bag did not arrive in *************** when I did. I filed a claim that day and waited for someone to reach out to me. After some time, the agent with *** Air in *************** requested I send an inventory sheet with what is the in bag. The inventory I sent them was quoted for over $4,000 USD; they called me with a quote saying they will only compensate me $450 USD. This is unacceptable, especially after paying $250 USD for oversized baggage. After going back and forth, they sent me a quote to compensate me $1,000 USD after speaking to the manager. My bag was heavy because I was moving to ***** and took leave in *************** to visit family. Therefore, my bag had majority of my clothes, uniform items, shoes, etc. I understand my items have depreciated over time, but $1,000 USD does not even compensate what is lost. Two uniform items alone will cost $1,000 USD to replace.Customer Answer

At this time, I have been contacted directly by EVA Airways regarding complaint ID ********, however my complaint has NOT been resolved because:
The company is only offering me $1000 USD when my bag is worth at least $4k USD. In addition to this, I requested they send me their policy on handling repayment and they wont send it. They stated that it is internal and they are unable to send it to me. EVA *** clearly states on their website that they follow the Montreal Convention, compensating $1730 for baggage. I stated this to them and they say their policy doesnt allow that. So then whats correct: an internal policy that the section manager makes the decision? Or the law that the airline clearly outlines in their website?
In order for the BBB to appropriately process your response, you MUST answer the question above.
