Well unless you’re using a different dictionary (which is possible, you’re probably one of the worst spellers on here), there is a huge difference between committing fraud and being denied an expenses you believe you incurred as a result of circumstances that occurred on company time.

Khantahr beat me to it. If I had a company-paid move, I’d likely claim those as well—based on my previous “company” paid moves in the USAF (where such expenses are part of the move). This is the first inkling I’ve ever had (albeit unconfirmed) that such expenses are NOT claimable. Would I have been fired if I claimed those…?
I simply can’t believe there’s not (a whole lot) more to the story….

TLDR: https://dal-jetstream.my.site.com/pilots/s/
The Crew Assist "app" on your EFB is really no such thing--it's essentially just a shortcut to Safari (running in its own sandbox), with its own icon, etc. Same as, say, the @Rest "app" on the EFB (among many others).
The link above is the main page that the "app" displays, all other links work from there. I've found it doesn't play well with ad blockers & other anti-tracking extensions, so you may need to either allow it to bypass those or set up a different browser for this (and similar websites with that issue), which is my solution. Works fine* on a personal iPhone (no knowledge of Android one way or the other)....
EDIT: *(albeit with some jacked up screen spacing)

if either of these anecdotes are true the company was being extraordinarily vindictive and ALPA totally failed to do their job.

why would either of those be fraud? It seems perfectly reasonable that if I’m on a company paid move…the company will pay for my move. moving my family (including pets) and things seem perfectly reasonable things to expense on a paid move.

People underestimate how difficult it is for Delta to fire a pilot AND make the termination stick.

Unless the expense was truly falsified, rather than a misinterpretation of whether it was contractually reimbursable, then the termination becomes a paid vacation when the pilot gets their job back (with full back pay).
