How do I get my 1000.00 back from a merchant?
I ordered a 1500.00 guitar by phone. I said I would put a 100.00 deposit down. I called 3 days later to cancel and the merchant said no way. I later find out that he placed 1000.00 on my credit card and not the 100.00 I authorized. I filed a complaint with my credit card company and the Better Business Bureau. I tried to reason with the merchant. I do not want to go to small claims court. What are my rights and what can I do to get out of this? I am willing to lose my 100.00 but not 1000.00. Was this illegal?

I wouldn't worry, your credit card company should take care of this, this is why it's good to buy things on credit cards. Usually a store has policies about refunds, but in this case you didn't even receive the merchandise.

Short of strong-arming him (which is illegal), you HAVE to take him to Small Claims Court.

You need to contact your credit card company and initiate a charge back. You authorized him to charge your card for $100, but he charged it for $1,000. Of course it will be a question of "he said, she said", but your credit card company should take your side.

It seems that the outcome will be based on how your credit card company handles the situation. I would think they would favor with you because you are their customer. You have no merchandise, and the merchant took more than he was authorized to do so. Good luck to you.

Illegal, maybe. Unethical, undoubtedly.

There is only a very slim chance that this will end badly for you. As long as you have filed the complaint in writing and the credit card company has acknowledged it, they cannot force you to pay until they investigate and they cannot damage your credit report.

Since the merchant is a nobody and you are the credit company's' primary source of revenue, I would be highly surprised if they didn't take your side. It is also much easier for the credit company to reject the charge than it will be to collect from a furious and dejected customer. In fact, if you've disputed a charge than you haven't even lost a dime yet.

One of the great features of credit cards is there security against unauthorized charges. Just make sure everything is in writing and the credit card company should work things out in your favor.

your credit card company should fight this for you


sexytrojan
NO that was NOT legal!

Your credit card company has to credit your account and go after the merchant for the funds.


Cheetah
You were smart by putting it on a credit card. Call up your credit card company and explain what happened and tell them you want the charge taken off your card immediatly. Your company will take it off and the merchant will get nothing.

you shouldn't have to worry about it if you challenged it with your credit card company.

keep after your credit card company.If they do not want to help you you might want to get a lawyer.

yeh, it is fraud. but lawyers are expensive and small claims court take up so much time and are so aggrevating plus you still may never actually collect. a merchant like that probably won't stay in business. write it off to more education. lol


angothoron
None to very little. Remember all laws in capitalist countries favour the business to the person. You can beg and plead but then your appealing to his conscience which you already stated is non existent.
