Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
I have recently booked a holiday with First Choice valued at £1900 and they want to charge me a 2.5% fee for payment via credit card. This amounts to nearly £50 which I think is bloody ridiculous. I want the security of credit card booking but im not paying that much for the privelage. Do First Choice have a right to charge this much or are they taking the p1ss.
Yes, they can, they are merely passing on to you the charge they themselves get charged by the credit card company. Most companies used to absorb that cost or lob it into the total price, but nowadays, they do this so that their prices will look more competitive.
(Ikea does this as well, but with a flat fee instead of a %age).
Apologies to people who I was in the process of helping, I may be gone some time.
