Purchases on Company Credit Card, same protection as personal credit card?

[smurfington]

I'm just wondering if purchases made on a business credit card have the same type of consumer protection that a personal credit card would? For instance, if I had a sufficient credit limit on my company credit card, could I make purchases from suppliers (provided they would take a credit card payment) that I was entirely trusting of and if they didn't deliver our goods or went bust, would we be able to get our money back from the card provider?

Cards issued to a limited company wouldn't have the protection of the Consumer Credit Act so it would be down to whatever protection is offered in the terms and conditions of the card.

Without digging out the T&C's for our credit card provider, I won't know then if our provider offers any sort of protection over and above a debit card purchase, i.e. none! Has anyone been reimbursed by the company credit credit card provider for a purchase that didn't arrive or similar situation?

I think the only way to find out would be to dig through the T&Cs. They're only normally a few pages. For example, Amex almost certainly would, the same may not be said of some of the more low-end credit cards.
