Another airline (XL) goes pop

Just looked on my statement and it says the payment went to Freedom flights who are actually Atol protected. So, even though I booked through Xl.com do you think I'll be in with a chance of a claim? Can't get on the Freedom flights site at the minute as the server is too busy

According to the radio this morning, if you booked through an ATOL protected company, you will get your money back.
If you booked a flight direct to XL, via debit card, you will lose your money.

Its not just the airline thats affected, anyone who has booked with the following will have also lost their holidays/cash.

Apparently they were still taking bookings last night, even though at that point they must have known what was happening today. They were handing out leaflets and so on today, and they take a while to get printed.
