Frequently Asked Questions
How secure is purchasing on the web?
Our Website is a secure site and you will be able to tell if you are in secure mode when a little padlock appears at the bottom right of your screen. Your credit card details are encrypted to prevent anyone accessing them, this includes members of our staff and public. When you type your credit/debit card number into our secure site the information you type in will be encoded and our server decodes it. In layman's terms this means that anyone "listening" to traffic en route will not be able to make sense of the number.
Furthermore, if you are a UK resident using a UK issued card for a transaction over £100 you are automatically protected by Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974. This means that if a trader fraudulently charges your card for something that you did not order then the credit card company are equally liable for the debt. In practise this means that the credit card company would refund you for the fraudulent charge. Given the above, in practise putting your card details into a secure Internet site are much safer than giving them over an unsecured telephone line.
