On Wednesday another travel company and airline, Globespan and its flyGlobespan subsidiary, went into administration with 4,500 people stranded overseas and 550 workers made redundant so far.
The administrator of that Edinburgh-based company is querying why around £30m was held back from Globespan by E-Clear, the company that handles its credit card transactions.
E-Clear also handled credit card transactions for the Allbury Travel Group.
