Don't know if i'm dreaming or not? My agent paid by visa and theres talk of us getting our money back.

Is there someone on mumsnet whose agent gave the money back cos she was able to get the payments back thru visa or something?

Thanks

Hi Maggymay

I'm so sorry that you have no hope of getting your money back at all.I'm not sure i will actually get mine back either yet.I won't believe it till i get it tho.
I'm sure theres someone here whose agent has already got the money back.Just wondering why ours is taking so long.
Hope you manage to have a good christmas.xxx

Hi 7swans

ThanksATM anyone who lost money will get on average 39 pounds from the farepak fund.It was soooo good of the public and the companies to contribute but 39 quid ain't gonna pay for anyones xmas.

Still can't believe my money could be bloody stolen like that.

If you paid by credit card you should get it back. The point about credit cards is that your contract is with the credit card company so if you do not get the goods you contracted for you calim against them, not the supplier.

That is why I ALWAYS use my credit card for online / mail order purchase or deposits for goods - even if you do not want one for credit it is good to have one just for that.

There will always be a big retail insolvency around Xmas as the coffers fill up before suppliers have to be paid. This year Farepak, last year was Courts - do not be caught next year!!
