Before you begin

Retailer contact

You need to give the retailer a chance to put things right

We're unable to help unless you have tried this first. They'll usually solve a dispute much quicker than we can - give them at least 14 days to resolve things for you.

Pending payment

Check that the payment isn't still pending

Check your statement or mobile app to make sure the payment isn’t pending. It can take a few days to go out of your account. Remember, we can’t raise a dispute for you if the payment is still pending.

Check your payment

Check when you made the payment

Each dispute is different – MasterCard and Visa set the rules we have to follow. If the payment was less than 120 days ago we can look into it for you.

What you need

Gather the right info

There’s a simple form to complete. You’ll need the following: your account details, the company or retailer name you made the payment to, the amount and date of the payment.

What happens after you raise a dispute claim?

Information Message

We'll do some checks first. We'll then get in touch with MasterCard or Visa. The company or retailer will be given a chance to have their say.

 

We'll send you an email with an update

We’ll try to do this within five working days. We might need more info from you, so if you don’t hear from us check your junk/spam folder.

Information Message

We might be able to give you a temporary refund

It depends on the type of dispute. The company or retailer has a chance to disagree. If your dispute isn’t successful then we’ll let you know that the refund is being taken back.

Information Message

We'll let you know the outcome

We don’t make the final decisions on dispute claims (remember - MasterCard and Visa set the rules). We’ll let you know the outcome as soon as we can. We try to get things sorted out within 60 days.

Information Message

Let's start
