Did you know, when ordering online, the way you pay affords you EXTRA PROTECTION if things go wrong?
SECTION 75 OF THE CONSUMER CREDIT ACT IS YOUR BEST FRIEND.....
A couple of KEY POINTS....
1. Purchase price for the item must be between £100 & £30000. (if for example you buy a charger for £60 and a screen protector for £40 even though the purchase price is £100 you will NOT be covered here)
2 You must have paid via CREDIT CARD
Why is this so important?
Simply, if the item you purchased meets the spend criteria above and something goes wrong, both the RETAILER AND THE CARD COMPANY ARE LEGALLY LIABLE. So if the retailer fails to resolve the issue (or goes bust) then you can approach the card company and claim from them using Section 75.
Whenever I purchase anything where the singular item is more than £100, I ALWAYS USE MY CREDIT CARD FOR THIS VERY REASON. I pay it off immediately so no interest to pay but still get the protection.
Please think about this when buying an item over £100. Section 75 is your safety net and your best friend.
(there are some exceptions but if you are ordering from Samsung, and the item you purchase is over £100 then you are covered when using your UK credit card).
