If you are suing because you want to recover your 300 Euros, a class-action suit that takes a decade and ends up paying you 5 Euros and results in no substantive change to the policy is a very poor substitute.

The value in class action lawsuits is as a deterrent to companies.

Also, most recipients of the 5 euro awards do literally nothing. The check just shows up.

What more do you want? Or more to the point, what alternative do you propose?
