Useful Advice from a reply by John Schmude
"My understanding with most credit card companies is that they normally follow the 120 day rule that you mentioned, and this is what is intially insisted upon. However, I was also under the impression that they generally will reimburse you if you have a contractual right - such a right to a refund - that is not being honored because the company that provided this right is no longer in business. I am certainly not an expert in this area, but I have been told that several individuals obtained refunds throught their credit cards long after the 120 day period expired. I suppose it also varies from one credit card company to another. My advice would be to continue to pursue this route. In particular, I would ask your credit card company (a manager of course) what their policy is for situations like this, and what recourse customers have when they purchase products or services containing certain obligations from companies that are either not reachable or out of business."
