Bnpl Consumer Rights Protection
Summary
Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act offers protection for purchases between £100 and £30,000 if misrepresented or undelivered. The Financial Ombudsman Service resolves disputes between consumers and financial businesses, with retailers often settling claims to avoid fees. If a product fails, like a laptop from AO, contact the retailer first. If unresolved, consider Section 75 or the Ombudsman. Writing a detailed complaint letter or email, including purchase details and desired resolution, is crucial.Full Conversation
However, once a consumer
mentions the Financial
Ombudsman Service or
Section * liability regarding
their BNPL account, retailers
often settle the claim to
avoid the high administrative
fees (currently £* per
case) charged to businesses
by the Ombudsman
regardless of whether the
business wins or loses.
