Purchase Protection on Credit Cards
Discussion
Hi,
I have a vague recollection that some purchases made on a credit cards are covered by insurance for a period of time. I bought my g/f a camera for her 30th a couple of months back. Unfortunately some scrote broke in to her house yesterday afternoon and made away with it (and a few other bits).
As she isnt covered by her household insurance, is there likely to be any comeback with the CC?
Thoughts appreciated. I've had a look on the net and on the MBNA website but cant see anything...I wouldnt imagine they'd shout about it, mind.
Cheers

Why on earth is she not covered by her household insurance - isn't that what's for ???I have a vague recollection that some purchases made on a credit cards are covered by insurance for a period of time.

It would seem she doesnt have contents insurance. Not my place to question her really.Gassing Station | The Pie & Piston Archive | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
