....thereby averting a thread that starts with "I spent £24m on a Colombian striker and he's not scoring as many goals as I thought he would, do I have any rights under section 75?"
Falcao is on loan :P
United only paid £6m to get him - the option is for a final signing fee of £43.5m if United want him but as it's a deposit towards a final payment I'm sure S75 would cover himSam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:
People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

It's over £30,000.
I suspect if he gets into the habit of scoring they might not need to make a claimSam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:

Not directly related but is this a loophole in S75? My son has often paid for flights for me to visit him in the US. He does this online with his credit card. But of course I am the person who flies so they are booked in my name, he just pays.
Who has the contract with the airline, him or me? If a flight was cancelled, for instance, who would claim compensation or would neither of us be able to?0 -

There's conflicting information on this, but in general, if you've paid for a group booking, such as tickets or a holiday for friends or non-immediate family, you should be protected for the full payment. Yet for those who want to play it safe, the best bet is to ask others to pay their own way where possible.
Let's say you pay for a whole group of mates to go on holiday with your credit card, and they pay you back their portion. Section 75 protection becomes confused if the holiday firm goes into administration, as there is some argument over who is part of the credit card contract.
Trading Standards was positive, telling us the payee "is entitled to a compensation of the full amount from the credit card company".
But the Financial Ombudsman says there's a chance you'll not be covered for the full amount, possibly only being entitled to your own proportion of the payment. So while payments for partners and children are easier, others are not so clear-cut.0
