New Credit Card

Options
Morning All :)
I'm about to purchase a new sofa, and wanted the additional credit card protection for this purchase just in case something goes wrong.
The full balance will be paid off asap and the card itself may or may not be used again beyond this purchase (not yet decided).
Any idea which card would be best suited please? i've not had a credit card in so long, so i'm rather clueless to most of it.
thank you :T

    You don't need a credit card; any credit agreement will provide you with S.75 cover (if applicable).

    Most sofa retailers will gladly offer you credit. (s.t.s.)

    One well known one usually offers 4 years interest free credit and nothing to pay for the first year. :)

    Any CC will do the job and you don't have to pay the full price by a CC to get full protection.

    Section 75 refunds

    That said, personally I wouldn't worry much when buying a sofa from some established company with a reasonably short delivery time.
