Credit Card Reclaiming - Can You Do It In Northern Ireland?

I started to read the guide to Credit Card Charge Reclaiming, but it only mentions England, Wales and Scotland. Does anyone know if the procedures mentioned are applicable in N.Ireland.

Thanks.

    The article is written primarily based on the laws of England & Wales. You are correct that it does also mention Scotland ... bit it also mentions Northern Ireland too ;)

    e.g.
    For those in Scotland and Northern Ireland, while the law is similar, the small claims process works differently. In Scotland the maximum claim is £750 and you may only reclaim 5 years' charges, in Northern Ireland the maximum claim is £2,000. This article is written based on the process for England and Wales, so for more details see Northern Ireland Courts and Scottish Sheriff Small Claims.

    Small claims limit in Scotland was raised to £3000 in 2007:

    I have reported this to site team so that the error on the guide can be corrected.
    If you had got it wrong, I would have feinted.
