Credit Card Holiday Protection?

neo1607

I've just paid for a holiday in full on my debit card for £808

Forgetting i was wanting to pay part on my credit card as extra protection if something goes wrong.

Since i've already made full payment via debit card if i add something else onto my booking like extra luggage or seat picker or something along those lines and pay that via credit card will that protect me for the full amount or will the extra i have added on?

Help would be appreciated

You have chargeback protection on your debit card anyway. If the company goes bust...
As well as ATOL/ABTA if you are sensible.

How long is chargeback protection for, the holiday is in 8 weeks time. Should have ATOL/ABTA protection as well anyway because the holiday is through Thomson Holidays.

Just thought it was worth having the credit card there as a little extra protection? Or does it not really matter

On a holiday it would be from when you are due to travel....

God forbid Thompson going under.... I think most card providers disputes team would go off sick with stress

TBH. S75 is not used that often.
