Of course it’s ludicrous JDB but that’s the law. And for once it operates in the passenger’s / consumer’s favour.

Any issue of who ultimately pays is between the UK cardco and the airline and doesn’t concern you. So long as one of those two still exists, you have a right to what you purchased and statutory rights pertaining to it – you don’t care which of then pays it’s not your problem.

Similar to insurance companies, cardco’s can afford to hire competent lawyers to recover money a consumer may not be able to force to be paid to them even where they’ve a perfect right to it.

So it’s all good for me. If you have s75 rights insist on exercising them with the cardco. The rest is not your concern.
