Credit Card Section 75 protection ~ a question?

[Box Brownie]

I wonder, because it is not clear to me, if Section 75 covers foreign currency payments for overseas 'purchases' of products & services.

More explicitly if one pays for a hotel accommodation booking in USD, is that covered by that protection?

TIA for any experienced insight on this subject

It applies to foreign transactions as well as goods bought online, by telephone, or mail order for delivery to the UK from overseas. You can even claim against a now closed credit card account. The law also applies to store cards.
