Travel Intelligence · EU261 claim company records 2026
By Richard J. · written from ValenciaRecord score 66/100Verified 26 September 2026
RefundMore scores 66 out of 100 as a claim company record, second of the ten: the Copenhagen firm, a subsidiary of Germany's Flightright, takes 30% of an award including VAT, and a further 15% if a case goes to court, 45% in all, and its terms put legal costs on Flightright itself if a court case fails. This record covers the company behind the claim: who runs it, what it takes from an award at each stage, what its terms say if a claim fails, its reviews and the gaps. Our EU261 trust index and fees comparison linked below rank the claim companies side by side; this page records one of them in full.

RefundMore scores 66 out of 100, second of the ten claim companies on this rubric: full marks for naming its owner, entity and registration number, held back by a 45% court fee and a Trustpilot base of 415 reviews. RefundMore is not on the four-way comparison or the fees page. Our trust index of 24 September ranked it first of five at the same 66; among all ten companies now scored on this rubric it ranks second, one point behind MYFLYRIGHT, whose Trustpilot listing opened and whose court-case success rate gained a stated basis after the index was compiled. The index is being updated to match.
| Criterion | Points | Out of | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fee, settled claim | 9 | 15 | A maximum of 30% including VAT: EUR 180 of a EUR 600 award, leaving EUR 420, on its price list (9 of 15). |
| Fee, court claim | 3 | 15 | A further 15% "to cover legal costs" if the case goes to court, 45% including VAT: EUR 270 of EUR 600 (3 of 15). |
| Success rate as published | 10 | 15 | Its home page states "We win 95% of our court cases" (5 of 5), which says what the figure measures (5 of 5); no average time to payout is published (0 of 5). |
| Passenger protection in the terms | 20 | 25 | No fees if the claim fails, and Flightright, its contracting partner, "shall also assume any other costs associated with the legal action" (6.4) (5 of 5). If the airline pays you directly, the contract ends once you have paid the agreed fee (9.1) (5 of 5). No payout deadline in days (4.2) (0 of 5). Bank transfer, with non-SEPA fees on the customer (4.3) (5 of 5). Terms dated 19 June 2026 (5 of 5). |
| Ownership and transparency | 15 | 15 | Flyhjælp ApS, Copenhagen, Denmark (5 of 5). Its terms call it "a wholly-owned subsidiary of Flightright GmbH" (5 of 5). Company registration DK 36 91 74 90 (5 of 5). |
| Independent reputation | 9 | 15 | Trustpilot 4.4 from 415 reviews (9 of 15). |
| Total | 66 | 100 | Claim company record score, 26 September 2026. |
RefundMore publishes a flat percentage fee with worked examples for three award sizes, and terms that name Flightright as the party that bears legal costs if a court case is lost. It does not publish a date on its price list, an average time to payout, or an independent confirmation of its Danish company number.

The record holds 17 facts about RefundMore, each with its source and grade. Grade A means the company's own site or terms; grade B means a registry, review platform, awarding body or major press; grade C means a secondary source not confirmed elsewhere. Every line was read on 26 September 2026 unless its source says otherwise.

RefundMore operates as Flyhjælp ApS, a Copenhagen company that its own terms call a wholly-owned subsidiary of Flightright GmbH of Berlin.
Its about page names Gustav Thybo and Johan Thybo as founders in 2014, with Phillip Brechmann as co-founder, and its leadership as Dennis, chief executive and head of finance, Frederik Thede as chief technology officer, Benedikte B. Lund as chief legal officer and head of lawsuit, and Frederik Hedegaard as chief marketing officer. Its terms state that Flyhjælp ApS is "a wholly-owned subsidiary of Flightright GmbH", while the same about page instead describes a March 2021 merger with Flightright. RefundMore operates in Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland under the brands Flyhjælp, Flyhjelp, Flyghjälp and Lentoapu; claims outside the Nordic countries are handled by Flightright itself, whose own record is at its own record.
RefundMore charges 30% of the award including VAT out of court, and a further 15% including VAT to cover legal costs if a case reaches court, 45% in all. Worked from its price list on 26 September 2026.
| Award | Fee, settled (30%) | Fee, in court (45%) |
|---|---|---|
| EUR 250 | EUR 75.00, you keep EUR 175.00 | EUR 112.50, you keep EUR 137.50 |
| EUR 400 | EUR 120.00, you keep EUR 280.00 | EUR 180.00, you keep EUR 220.00 |
| EUR 600 | EUR 180.00, you keep EUR 420.00 | EUR 270.00, you keep EUR 330.00 |
RefundMore's price list states plainly that "all the above amounts are stated in EUR including VAT", so no VAT is added on top of these figures. The price list carries no date or version. RefundMore charges nothing up front and nothing if the claim fails. How other claim companies' fees compare on the same EUR 600 award is in the claim company fees comparison; what a claim is worth before any fee is set out in the EU261 compensation calculator.
RefundMore's terms put legal costs on Flightright if a court case fails, end the contract once its fee is paid when an airline pays a passenger directly, and give no deadline in days for its own payout.
| Situation | What the terms say | Clause |
|---|---|---|
| The claim fails | No fee is charged, and Flightright, RefundMore's contracting partner, "shall also assume any other costs associated with the legal action" | 6.4 |
| The airline pays you directly | The contract ends once you have paid RefundMore the agreed fee out of that payment | 9.1 |
| RefundMore is paid | Paid "as soon as" the required documents are received, by bank transfer; a non-SEPA account bears its own transfer fees | 4.2 and 4.3 |
| Governing law | German law governs the contract | 10.1 |
| How you sign | Choose the Assignment Process, where the claim is assigned in trust, or the Power of Attorney Process, where you authorise RefundMore without assigning the claim | |
| You change your mind | Withdraw within 14 days without giving a reason; refunded within 14 days of your notice, unless you have expressly asked for the service to be completed first |
The terms are dated 19 June 2026. Why a claim company's promise on a failed court case matters more than its headline fee is explained in no win, no fee flight compensation, explained.
RefundMore takes a claim by assignment or by power of attorney, pursuing airlines for passengers in Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland, and publishes no average time from claim to payout.
Once paid, RefundMore says it will settle "as soon as" it has received the documents needed to balance the account, without a number of days in its terms. It publishes no court rulings page of its own; how its German parent scores on the same rubric, including its own published court record, is in Flightright's own record.
RefundMore states it wins 95% of its court cases, and elsewhere on the same page states 95% of all cases, without clarifying whether the two describe the same measure.
Its home page carries both "We win 95% of our court cases" and "We win 95% of all cases". It gives no average time to payout. Among the ten claim companies scored on this rubric, MYFLYRIGHT, Fairplane and Flightright also tie a rate to court cases; AirAdvisor gives 98% with no basis; Compensair, Flight-Delayed.com, AirClaim, Skycop and EUclaim publish none.
RefundMore holds 4.4 out of 5 on Trustpilot from 415 reviews, the smallest review base of the three highest scoring claim companies on this rubric.
The listing has been claimed since January 2019, shows a newest review dated 7 September 2026, and 13% of its reviews are one star. Two addresses of the same profile, refundmore.com and www.refundmore.com, return identical figures. No second review platform with a rating was found.
RefundMore suits a passenger claiming from Denmark, Sweden, Norway or Finland who wants Flightright's backing without Flightright's own higher published fee.
At 30% including VAT, EUR 180 of a EUR 600 award, RefundMore takes less than Flightright's top rate of up to EUR 214.20, though slightly more than MYFLYRIGHT's EUR 178.50. In court its EUR 270 is less than Flightright's EUR 314.16 or AirAdvisor's EUR 300, though more than Fairplane's capped EUR 210. It suits less well a passenger outside the Nordic countries, whom Flightright itself handles under its own, higher fee. Whether to use a claim company at all, or claim directly, is weighed in claims companies against claiming yourself.
Whether RefundMore takes the claim or not, the size of the award, the time limit, the airline's reply and the next disrupted trip are the passenger's own decisions.
| Decision | What matters | Where we cover it |
|---|---|---|
| What the claim is worth | EU261 pays EUR 250, EUR 400 or EUR 600 by distance, whatever the ticket cost. | EU261 compensation calculator; compensation amounts explained |
| Claiming yourself first | An airline must pay a valid claim made directly, with no fee; a claim company earns its share when the airline refuses. | Claims companies against claiming yourself; how to claim, step by step |
| If the airline says no | A refusal citing extraordinary circumstances can still be challenged. | The airline rejected my claim; extraordinary circumstances explained |
| Time limits | The limit depends on the country where the claim is brought. | Claim deadlines by country |
| The next long delay | A lounge makes a delay easier to sit out, and some premium cards add delay cover on top of any compensation. | Credit cards with airport lounge access; best luxury travel credit cards; Amex Platinum vs Chase Sapphire Reserve |
| Premium cabins | Compensation is the same fixed sum in business or first as in economy. | Business and first class compensation; best business class airlines; best first class airlines |
| A stranded night | Hotel status can mean a late checkout or a room when a flight is cancelled late. | Hilton Diamond vs Marriott Titanium vs Hyatt Globalist |
RefundMore appears on one Uncompromised Travel page, the trust index, where it ranks first of five.
| Page | Position | Note |
|---|---|---|
| EU261 claim company trust index | 1st of five, 66/100 | The record agrees on the score; among all ten companies now scored on this rubric, MYFLYRIGHT ranks one point higher, at 67, which the index does not yet show |
The closest alternatives are MYFLYRIGHT for a lower settled fee, Fairplane for court costs inside one cap, its own parent Flightright outside the Nordic countries, and AirHelp for the largest review base.
| Company | Record score | How it differs |
|---|---|---|
| MYFLYRIGHT | 67 | Hamburg; 25% plus VAT, 29.75% in all, the lowest published settled fee among the ten |
| Fairplane | 65 | Vienna; up to 35% with VAT and court enforcement inside the same cap; German language only |
| Flightright | 58 | RefundMore's German parent; 20 to 30% plus VAT and a further 14% plus VAT in court |
| AirHelp | No record; 59 on our trust index | 35% including VAT and 50% in court; owns the former ClaimCompass; an affiliate partner of this site elsewhere |
Four things a passenger would want could not be found or verified for RefundMore. Supplying a verifiable source closes a gap; it changes the evidence, never the rubric.
| Missing | Where we looked |
|---|---|
| Independent confirmation of its CVR number, 36 91 74 90 | The Danish business register at virk.dk, which returned an error for our reader; the number is reported from RefundMore's own about page |
| A date or version on its price list | Its price list page, which carries none |
| Whether its 95% success figure covers all claims or only those that reach court | Its home page, which states both "We win 95% of our court cases" and "We win 95% of all cases" without clarifying |
| A payout deadline in days, or an average time to payout | Its terms, which say only "as soon as" the required documents are received |
RefundMore issued current terms in June 2026; its price list carries no date to show when it last changed.
| When | What happened | Source |
|---|---|---|
| 19 June 2026 | Current terms and power of attorney agreement take effect | RefundMore terms |
