Bott and Co, founded in 2001, is the oldest company here by its own account, though its flight delay department dates from February 2013. Flight-Delayed's parent Yource and Flightright both give 2010 and the newest are AviFly, 2025 and FlyClaims, 2026.
What does each one charge if it wins?
14 of the 15 publish their fee or their court terms; each line gives both as the company states them.
Flight-Delayed: 35% for most cases, deducted from the amount won; prices include VAT unless stated otherwise. Court: 50% if the case has to go to court, described as 35% plus 15%.
Flightright: Usually 20% to 30% of the compensation, plus VAT, agreed when ordering. Court: a surcharge of 14%, only if successful, when contract lawyers are needed; it pays court costs if the case is lost.
Reclamador: 25% plus VAT of the compensation received, if settled before court. Court: a supplement of 15% plus VAT if it has to sue, to cover lawyers and administration.
AirCashBack: 25% gross of what is obtained, if the claim succeeds; VAT may be added on top. Court: a further 20% gross if the case goes to court: 45% gross in all.
AirHelp: 35% including VAT, taken from the compensation; AirHelp+ members pay no fee. Court: an additional legal action fee applies if it escalates through legal channels; no figure is published.
ClaimFlights: A flat 25% success fee plus VAT by country of residence (29.75% gross for German residents, no VAT for US and non-EU residents). Court: no extra fee: the flat 25% stays the same if it goes to court; it bears court and lawyer costs.
RefundMore: A maximum of 30% including VAT, only on success, or a fixed fee per passenger by distance: €75, €120 or €180. Court: an extra court case fee of up to 15% in one place on its site and up to 30%, a maximum of 45% in all, in another.
Indemniflight: 35% including VAT when settled with the airline, charged after payment is received. Court: 50% including VAT if court proceedings are needed; it bears lawyers' fees and court costs.
MYFLYRIGHT: 25% plus VAT on the debt collection route, or 35% plus VAT where it buys the claim for an immediate payout. Court: a surcharge of 10% plus VAT if external lawyers are needed and the case succeeds.
Refund Pilot: It pays 71% to 75% of the claim value upfront and keeps 25% to 29%: 29% including VAT for flights under 90 days old, 25% for older flights. Court: no court fee: the customer is paid whatever happens with the airline.
Skycop: 44% including VAT on its standard price list (€110 on a €250 claim, €264 on €600); 30% on its Brazil price list. Court: 50% including VAT with legal proceedings on its standard price list (€300 on a €600 claim).
Click2Refund: Court: all legal costs, including court fees, are borne by Click2Refund, it says.
AviFly: 15% plus VAT of the amount obtained, if the claim is settled without court. Court: 30% plus VAT if a lawsuit is needed, in place of the 15%, not on top of it.
FlyClaims: 20% of the compensation including VAT, only if successful; on a €400 claim the customer keeps €320. Court: no extra fee for legal action: 'Your fee stays the same.'
Which flight compensation companies have been in business the longest?
Ranked by the founding year each company gives on its own website, the earliest first. 15 claims companies in the table give one founding year; those whose own pages give two different years are left out.
Who is on this page and why. The Uncompromised Travel flight compensation table holds 33 companies: the claims companies ChatGPT names most when asked about flight compensation. Their own websites were read on 20 October 2026, with their Trustpilot profiles. This page carries the claims companies in the table whose own website gives one founding year (a company whose own pages give two different years is left out), in words that can be shown here: 15 companies. Cards are ranked by the founding year each company gives on its own website, the earliest first; companies founded the same year are in alphabetical order. Fees are shown as each company publishes them, with their conditions. No company paid to be on this page.

Reviews
Trustpilot: 4.5 out of 5 from 4,760 reviews, newest review 7 October 2026, read 20 October 2026.
By one figure: the founding year each company gives on its own website, earliest first. A company whose own pages give two different years is not ranked.
Does an older company mean a better claim?
Not on its own. Age shows a company has kept going; the fee, the court terms and the reviews on each card say more about a claim today.
Which of these companies have reviews on Trustpilot?
12 of the 15: Bott and Co, Flightright, Reclamador, AirCashBack, AirHelp, ClaimFlights, RefundMore, Indemniflight, MYFLYRIGHT, Skycop, Click2Refund and AviFly. Each card shows the rating, the number of reviews and the newest review date, read on the day shown.
Do these companies charge a fee if they win?
Flight-Delayed, Flightright, Reclamador, AirCashBack, AirHelp, ClaimFlights, RefundMore, Indemniflight, MYFLYRIGHT, Refund Pilot, Skycop, AviFly and FlyClaims publish a fee figure on their own websites. Each card gives the fee as the company states it, with its conditions, such as VAT or a separate court fee. For Bott and Co and Click2Refund, no fee figure was found on its website or its fee page would not open; ask before you sign.
Can I claim without a claims company?
Yes. You can claim from the airline directly and for free; in the UK or EU you can go on to the national enforcement body or an approved dispute scheme if the airline refuses. A claims company takes a share of the compensation for doing that work for you.
Where can I check these facts myself?
Each card links the pages of the company's own website its lines were read from, under Sources, with the date they were read.
How were these companies chosen?
Each one is a claims company in the Uncompromised Travel flight compensation table and its own website gives one founding year (a company whose own pages give two different years is left out). A company is on the page because its published facts fit the question, never because it paid.
Is any company on this page paying to be here?
No. No company on this page is a partner of Uncompromised Travel; none paid to be listed.
Built to answer the question in the main heading. What is shown: what each claims company published on its own website, read on 20 October 2026, with its Trustpilot rating where the profile carries the company's own name, from the Uncompromised Travel flight compensation table. Left out: companies whose websites would not open, a company whose activities were taken over by another, a company whose address opens another company's site and services that pass the claim to other companies. Cards are ranked by the founding year each company states, the earliest first. No company on this page is a partner of Uncompromised Travel. How this site earns · How we work.
