Paypal vs (Irish) Credit card for online consumer protection?

TheRover · 2016-04-20 08:24:36

Hi, I've been trying to find which is the safest way to purchase online for general consumer protection. I am aware Paypal have a certain level of buyer protection, but what about the Ireland-issued credit cards? Do we have in Ireland anything similar to the UKs Section 75?…

You can request a chargeback from your financial institution by filling out a form. Paypal have always been quite buyer biased but I havent had cause to use the Visa system so can't compare.
