New to the Forum - Quick question

I have a Halifax Visa Debit.

If I were to purchase something and the goods were not delivered
and shop owner refused to return the money, would I have insurance
cover like that you get from credit cards?


Thanks in advance


Joakim

    No, the consumer credit act only covers buying goods on credit.

    Have a read of this thread with further links inside:

    Visa

    P.S. BTW one of the links is exactly about Halifax. However, I wouldn't rely on this protection. It is not as efficient as the one you get when paying by a credit card..
