FAQs
What is a chargeback?
A chargeback is the process which allows you to retroactively cancel a credit/debit card transaction. The process begins the moment a request is filed with the bank that issued you the card.
I authorized these transactions weeks/months/years ago, is it still possible to do a chargeback?
Visa® and Mastercard® guarantee that you can apply for a chargeback at any time within 120 days from the date of the transaction. Under certain conditions, that period can be extended to up to 540 days. In certain jurisdictions, the law provides you with even more time. As time passes by, it typically becomes more and more difficult to trace your lost funds. Fraudulent companies tend to declare bankruptcy or go defunct in order to avoid paying back stolen funds, only to come back afterwards under a different name. However, as mentioned above, there is no specific time frame in which the task becomes unworkable. There have been people who managed to recover their funds several years after the fraudulent transaction occurred. As part of our free consultation, we will determine & advise you on how probable it is to trace back your money and successfully perform a chargeback.
If I authorized these transactions in the first place, won’t the bank hold me responsible for them?
No. Any authorized transaction must result in you receiving the service that you were promised. These fraudulent companies do not engage in truthful practices. Even if the company followed their obligation to you, it must also meet specific regulatory obligations in order for the transaction to be considered legally binding. Most of these unregulated scam companies aren’t able to justify their practices, therefore making all such transactions illegal and open for dispute.
Why should I go with Claim Capital and not pursue this on my own?
