Things to know about disputing a transaction
If you see a transaction that looks wrong or unfamiliar, there are few things you can do before you lodge a transaction dispute.
- Check the transaction wasn’t made by another cardholder on the account.
- Search online to see if the unrecognised name is linked to a business you bought from.
- Check that it’s not a purchase form a few days ago. There can be delays between payment and the transaction appearing.
- Contact the merchant directly to try and resolve the issue with the transaction. This is often the fastest way to resolve a transaction dispute.
