Won holiday to NY for st Patricks 2003. Cancelled due to the war in Iraq, jobsworth would not refund the money but awarded tickets for the value to be used whenever, after I chased them for 5 months, they only coresponded once, I called at least 20 times and wrote at least 5 times.
Booked flights to amsterdam 09/03 for me and 6 yr old. No check in time on tickets so got to airport I hour before take off, stood in check in queue for 30 mins then was told too late to check in and get on flight. Sent to booking desk, told I was stupid and should have read the ticket, asked them to show me where on ticket is said 2 hrs before take off..they admitted it was no on ticket and put me on next flight....which took off before my original flight, still have vouchers to use but will do it under protest, Hotel re-imbursed the cash paid and this was re-used to pay for another hotel.
The flight was fairly normal, arrived on time but never took off on time, i have used this airline around 5 times as my sister lives in the Netherlands but find the aircrew quite stand offish and not very pleasent, the take off times are not regularly on time but the flight usually is quite quick. My son fell asleep 30mion into the flight and was not offered the "Sandwich" lunch as he was asleep, or a drink which i thought was unacceptable as the flight cost £170 for each of us(return) can do this for around £50 on easyjet.
More info about KLM would be useful I think - see mattygroves' comments below :o)

Sorry to hear you didn't have a good experience. I think it is usually the case, though, with prizes that you can only transfer them and not get money instead. I would have liked to have known more about the actual flying experience. Fiona
