First, I promise to post the good parts of Europe soon (other than United Airlines, it was amazing).

Now, my response from someone at United. In case it wasn’t in the letter to United I posted here, in the actual emails I sent I asked to be reimbursed for my phone calls from the UK and said that basically the only way I would fly United again would be if they give me a free round trip ticket.

And the response:

Yeah…did you see anything in there about my two requests?

Me neither.
