Agreed partial refund failed to materialise. CC intervention?

I purchased10 packs of flooring online using my credit card. Total cost was £465 inc delivery with each pack costing £43.Two packs contained damaged boards, the rest were fine. After speaking with the supplier, they agreed to refund for one full pack within 7 working days.

14 working days later and no refund or answering my emails. Looking at the review sites this appears to be their modus operandi.

Could I get my CC provider involved re a chargeback?  As each pack was under £100, I’m unsure if a S75 would be possible.

As usual, any advice would be welcome, and much appreciated.

    A chargeback would be simplest.

    Just for the £43 they are supposed to be refunding?

    No it would not be covered by S75.

    So chargeback is the only option.

    Just to be clear, I would be requesting a chargeback for the refund owing of £48, not the £465 I initially paid?

    Yes, why would you request a chargeback on the full amount if you're happy with the rest of the goods?

    Chargebacks are not a punitive instrument.

    Yes. Faulty goods on the 2 packs. They will need proof of cost of each pack. I hope you have proof of delivery as well.

    I dont want or need the full amount back. I'm checking the procedure having never done this before.

    They didnt want the damaged boards back or to collect them (online supplier) . I ended up taking them to the local dump. I just have the email exchange including the refund info and photos of the damage.
