The following comment sounds alarmist but needs to be considered by anyone who feels secure because they’ve paid by credit card.

There is a “grey area” where bookings or purchases are made through a third party.

For example a booking for a flight with XYZ Airlines made through QPR Flight Brokers Ltd and paid by credit card. Your payment is to QPR Brokers but the failure is by XYZ Airlines. Credit card companies have in the past disputed that they are responsible for refunding.

Off the top of my head I don’t know if this situation still exists or had been clarified.

Do any other Dibbers have upto date info ?

I’m off to do some research.
