Buying on credit gives you some extra rights. One example of this is if you buy goods that are faulty using your credit card.
If a trader has an arrangement with a finance or credit card company to allow you to pay by credit, you have extra protection.
This applies if the goods cost more than £100 but less than £30,000 including VAT.
The credit company is equally liable for a breach of contract or misrepresentation by the trader. For example, if the goods are not delivered or are not what you ordered, or a holiday was wrongly described or you did not get what you paid for, you may be able to claim from the credit card or finance company.
