    €300 voucher for a closed hotel.

    Is there any comeback?

    Not really, unless it's part of a chain maybe.

    Was it bought by credit card or cash?

    Will find out and come back. It was a gift bought in December and the hotel appears to have gone kaput in early January. All contact details are not being answered.

    @spurious, not a chain unfortunately.

    There's pretty much no comeback from something like that. A credit card refund may be possible, but I don't know if that's always the case. I guess it depends on who has the money.

    Does that really matter or change the principle involved?

    The question was asked for a simple reason.
    If somebody offered a voucher for the same hotel on another site for sale, it might help to know that the Hotel is now closed.
    I for one don't know all the hotels that are currently closed for business these days and it would be a help to know at least one of them.
    Just thought it would be helpful info for someone out there.

    Just as an FYI - I have no problem with naming the hotel name in this case. Sharing the name may help someone else in the same boat.

    Has a receiver been appointed or was it would down?

    Technically you are a creditor and you can lodge this with the receiver. However, you'll be well down the pecking order and you'll probably get nothing.

    It would be worth writing in as it's possible that the hotel could have closed in an orderly fashion and you might get a refund.

    It can help clarify the situation. If its part of a group, perhaps, it may be useable elsewhere. The more details, the better
