Breach of contract s75?
Comments
-
Update having contacted the credit card company under S75, they are now taking on the dispute, however, their employee told me they would try to recover the £2000 deposit, which is only 20% of the price i paid for the vehicle, the dealer i bought the car from has refused me any refund outright, do i have to pursue the remaining amount under the 2015 Consumer Rights Act? i was under the understanding, having read S75 that i could claim for the full amount as the seller is in breach of contract. please advise.
Thank you
Yes - the credit card co is jointly liable for the full amount, not just the £2k deposit.
Obviously, the cc company will contact the dealer to get their side of the story.
Maybe wait to see if the cc company agree there has been a breach of contract before arguing further about the amount. (Although don't sign/agree to anything that says you accept that your claim is limited to £2k.)0 -

if the CC company decide to pay out the full refundable amount, do they then chase the dealership for recovery of the funds?

Update, the credit card company has applied a £2000 credit to my account, this is not the outcome i was looking for, also i paid off the £2000 credit instantly, so all i am left with now is a higher credit availabilty on my CC and a car that is faulty, can anyone advise me please?
thank you so much0 -

So have they agreed with you that there was a breach of contract? Or have they refunded pending further investigation? (Or have they just done a chargeback?)
Anyway... the steps to follow are:
1, Formal complaint to the CC company
2. If that doesn't get the result you want, a complaint to the Financial Ombudsman
3. If that doesn't get the result you want, a claim in the small claims court

(If you want the £2000 in your bank account, I expect you can phone the CC company and ask for a cheque.)0 -

Thank you as always Eddy, i truly appreciate your help, could you finally advise me how i should address the complaint to the cc company please? and also when you speak of courts, do you mean take the dealership or the cc company?
thank you so much0
