This company has used dirty tricks ( history repeating once again ) and I predict many claims for compensation to embarrass the company for many years to come.
Wirbelsturm, as you say, it is a sad indictment that the BASSA 'faithful' see everything that the company has done as "dirty tricks", but at the same time those 'faithful' utterly fail to acknowledge that many within their midst have committed
illegal acts, and continue to advocate more of the same. They are living on a different planet!
If a rejection of the current offer occurs, a result which might be my personal preferred option, then a clear opportunity exists for the company to excise this rot for once and for all. If the offer is accepted, then it must include the cessation of any court processes, current or planned. Either way, BASSA are the losers.
And either way, BASSA may be facing some court actions themselves, from BA employees who were at the receiving end of the disgraceful actions of some of BASSA's members. BASSA loses ...... again!
