I originally had a flight booked with easyJet from London to Italy at 12:40pm and it has now been changed to the same day at 06:00am. I have no way of getting me and the passengers to the airport at that time. They've done the same for the way back. Flight time was originally 16:55 and they've changed it to 10.30am.
I've called them and they were absolutely no help at all. They offered no solutions except charging me £2000 to change the flights to a more desirable time.
Has anyone else had this problem? And to anyone who knows about aviation law, surely this is not legal

It is going to depend on a two factors: 1. Is this change occurring within 14 days of your trip? 2. Is your actual flight number changing?
This will fall under UK/EU Regulation 261/2004
IANAL
Only compensation depends on advance notice.
A flight that operates on a different times is cancelled and rescheduled, regardless if it has the same number.
Refund and rebooked are both legal asks. If you want a refund, ask the airline again, then sue them for the refund in MCOL
