The problem is that BHX cannot disallow a carrier to operate through BHX. Imagine the furore if BHX decided to bar one carrier and promote another onthe same route - the legal industry would have a field day.
The problem lies with the people to choose to book with such fly by night carriers.
It was reported that a suspect travel agent who was up before the beak last week for selling bogus trips to Mecca got away with it for so long because the "community" didn't want to shop one of their own. Given that sort of mindset in the ethnic communities in Birmingham it's hardly a surprise that so many iffy operators seem to be able to so easily fleece their customers, and at the same time drag the reputation of BHX through the mire.
