If you’ve already made contact with them, please read on. If you have a transaction you don’t recognise, please read our I don’t recognise a transaction page.

Because of Section 75, if you’ve bought something with your Halifax credit card, the business or retailer and Halifax may be equally responsible if things go wrong.
So, for example, if the item or service is faulty, doesn’t arrive or isn’t as described, you may be able to claim a refund from either the business or retailer or from Halifax.
