Section 75 for Course Payment?

Hi Guys I’m new to MSE and hope I’ve posted in the correct area.

I paid for a distance learning course online with my credit card in September 2018, all has been going well since, until yesterday I found out the training company has gone into administration.

I had paid £1300 at the beginning of the course, but since receiving the email yesterday I will no longer be able to carry on my studies or receive the qualification I’ve paid for even though I’m towards the end with a few months left to go.

Am I able to claim from MBNA under section 75 as I haven’t received the services I’ve paid for. I closed this credit card account last month.

Thanks,
George

    You can try. Why not just ring up and ask them as the card was used for the course, though do remember S75 isn't a guaranteed refund, expect the process to be a while.


    Correct forum would be credit cards though

    Sam 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.

  • I will try and give them a call on Monday thanks, I had read on the guides there isn't a specific time frame so hopefully, I might be to try and recover some of the money.
