Hi,
I put an order in for appliances up north, at the time i paid a 10% deposit using my credit card, since then the euro has strengthened against sterling and the difference between the price now and back then is over 350 euo's. I contacted the store to pay the remainder due to the great saving but i was told that they were using the euro price at the time as the final sale price and not the sterling price so i would get no reduction since they deducted the balance in euro. I think this is only being done to suit them as if it was the other way, i'm full sure i would be paying the extra based on the exchange rates.
If they refuse to pass on the difference, what are my options? Can i cancel my order, and in doing so lose my deposit? and if i did this would this be covered by the credit card company as i have not received my goods.
Any other options are much appreciated.
