A daily stipend is optional but most give you only $25 per day for a maximum of three days and some will give you a small allowance for clothes and toiletries but usually set a very low limit. Either way you usually have to fight to receive any delayed baggage compensation.

Keep calling and good luck. Have you tried writing a letter? Sometimes that will get faster action than a phone call.
I don't think you read my complaint thouroughly. I did send request for the $ 60.00 along with recipts and documentation from the company handling Malysia Airlines luggage in Stockholm to the airlines ticket office there - as instructed. The tooth fractured at the Renassance Hotel in Newark but had I been scheduled to connect with another air line leaving that night, rather tha with Continental ~10 hrs late, Malysia Airline would not had to put me in a hotel and I would never eaten that bacon.
