Help! - Purchase Protection/s.75 Ccc Act - Vouchers

In Feb 2007, I bought a car rally/driving day for a 40th present for £280 via the internet. This was to be used within 1 year and I received a voucher for the purchase to give to the recipient. The recipient has now discovered that the company has stopped trading via a notice on their website.

I used a Nationwide Visa credit card for the purchase so I wrote to them but they have initially come back and said that as I received a voucher, in effect I have received my goods and they are not going to refund me.

Does anyone knows the rules regarding vouchers, and also for a voucher for an activity like this where the date of the use is open-ended? It seems a different situation compared to gift vouchers or a flight ticket.

Thanks.

  • I would tend to agree with them

    If you had purchased for a set day etc fair enough you would win but you got a voucher which you got

    Your now a creditor of the company so I would contact the insolvency firm to register your claim (or whoever bought it)
