How to Resolve a dispute with a Merchant

What to do to best resolve the dispute with the Merchant:

  • First, most important thing is to contact the merchant. MasterCard requires this before we can provide assistance.
  • Ask the merchant to issue a credit, or multiple credits if they have charged you multiple times.
  • Take good notes! You should notate the following:
    • The name of each person you spoke to and the date.
    • What they agreed to do.
    • Confirmation and/or cancellation numbers (make sure you ask for them).
    • How many days it will take before you receive your credit.
  • Also, keep any emails and/or letters to and from the merchant.

Free Trials:

  • Did you know that if you sign up for a free trial, you must cancel and in some cases return the product before the trial ends to avoid future charges?
  • Merchants are required by MasterCard to post the terms of the free trial during the checkout process.
  • Be Smart! Make sure you understand the terms and conditions before you give them your card number.

What to do if you have already signed up:

  • Contact the merchant to cancel the subscription.
  • If you need to return the product they provided, get proof of delivery.
  • Remember to ask the merchant for credit and take good notes as referenced above.
