  • We will conduct an investigation to determine whether there has been an Erroneous or Unauthorized Transaction. We will complete our investigation within a reasonable period from the date we received your notification of the suspected Erroneous or Unauthorized Transaction.
  • We will inform you of our decision after completing our investigation. If we determine that there was an Erroneous or Unauthorized Transaction, we will promptly credit the full amount into your User Account.

  1. Credit/Debit/Charge Card Chargebacks. If you wish to dispute or invalidate a payment that was made on your credit/debit/charge card, you should contact your credit/debit/charge card company directly.
  1. Your Errors. If you erroneously send a payment to the wrong party, or send a payment for the wrong amount (for example, you made a typographical error), your only recourse will be to contact the party to whom you sent the payment and ask them for a refund of the payment.
