DB cancelled my service and put me on a later train. Can I claim?
Yes. If the rescheduled service got you to Berlin 60+ minutes after your original arrival time, you can claim compensation. You can also choose a full refund instead if you didn't travel.
What if DB says it wasn't their fault?
Hamburg congestion and Berlin infrastructure issues are well within what DB is responsible for. These are not force majeure. We challenge these rejections — and win.
How long do I have to claim?
90 days from the date of travel. After that, DB's records are gone and the claim becomes very hard to make. Check now.
