    Was it the one where they guy needed to pay for his hotel on CC and his limit was not high enough?

    Strangely enough (and this is spooky) it was actually someone who wanted to use his card to buy a TV for his friend who was going to give him cash at a later date. I think. :confused:
  • You only have to pay over £100 on the credit card to get the Section 75 protection. Therefore use one card to make part payment and the balance on another. Problem solved!!

    Although it is against the T&C's you CAN overpay....... The will be no penalties for doing so......

    There's a fairly substantial penalty - you lose your Section 75 cover. (If it matters to you of course...)
