I gave you access, waiting for results, but I'm wondering why you insist on getting email access to do anything. Why not let me input flights manually? You're going to turn away a lot of users who aren't willing to let you scan their emails.

It looks like you can input flights manually. I went through with a flight cancelled a few months back, I had to give an email address but not give them any access. It says I am entitled to €600. They take a 25% cut; I'm not sure I'll go through with it or submit my own claim direct to the airline.

What? You have to connect your email to this thing?

Sign up for a temp gmail account and give them access to that.

Exactly. I'd love to use this service, but I am hesitant to connect anything to gmail.
