For those who followed the earlier thread "EU Jet bust" and were interested in the outcome - it appears I have been refunded the full amount paid for a ticket bought with a debit card.
Which is a great way to end the week.
A big thank you and well done to the EU Jet administrators. And a better luck next time to EU Jet and its employees.
Good stuff - well done !
awesome - congratulations.
Out of interest, do you know if the money came from the debit card company or EU Jet?
The item appeared as a debit from EU Jet, so fingers crossed for all the others out there (including my parents, who also paid by debit card! (over
100)).
I wonder if they were putting this money in a seperate bank account for the last few weeks before they went bust (so the directors couldnt be prosecuted for trading whilst insolvent?). Would be a refreshing change if this happened, pity Tiny Computers didnt do the same.
I'm afraid that the only information I know is that the item appeared as "DEB EU Jet IE" on my internet banking statement. What this means technically, I don't know.
I assume that was a Visa Delta debit card, not Maestro/Switch?

Hmm, its hard to know form that. Thanks anyway.
On my Lloyd's TSB current account DEB indicates a debit card transaction.

Thanks, looks like a straight refund then.
Aye.
Out of interest, would Maestro/Switch be treated any differently then?
Yes - you'd have had far less protection with a Maestro/Switch debit card.
Just to note: My parents also got their refund too. It seems like they're doing well in the administration process...
