    Am I reading it right?? Anyone??
    No, like most people on here your not reading it right. The big letters are misleading and to read it right you need to click links where it takes you to contract law which will explain sellers rights as well as buyers.


    The sticky is very misleading and unless you delve deeper you will not know about the loss of profit or how contracts really work.
    Despite what people on here might tell you £20 for their time will not cover it.

    I have read the article - thanks

    I've read the article too.

    From what I can see, it mentions nothing about cancelling services such as you have booked i.e. hotels - which (imho) it should do.

    This was in post #5:
    Exemptions There are some contracts where you won’t have a right to cancel a service. For example, hotel bookings, flights, car hire, concerts and other event tickets, or where the trader is carrying out urgent repairs or maintenance.
    I think that seems pretty clear.
