Disputing a payment transaction

DISPUTING A PAYMENT TRANSACTION

 

  • This is how the customer (current account or payment card holder) claims a chargeback and/or rectification of a transaction that was not authorised or not carried out in accordance with the instructions provided.
  • Check account and card transactions regularly.
  • Activate notifications via text message, email or app to be notified whenever a transaction takes place or the internet banking or app is accessed.
  • If you did not authorise it, dispute it immediately.
  • If it is a seller error (e.g. product never received or wrong amount charged), contact the seller first for a refund.
  • Block the card or account
    • If your card has been stolen or you notice unauthorised use, block everything immediately (card, app, internet banking).
    • You can do this online or by calling the freephone numbers for blocking cards [Click HERE]
  • Fill in the form available online and in branch.
  • Wait for the outcome: The bank will assess your case and give you feedback.

 

Other useful information

  • You do not have to submit a report immediately, but we advise you to do so for greater protection.
  • Include useful evidence (screenshots, bank statements, text messages, etc.).
  • If the transaction is indeed unauthorised, the bank will send a chargeback within one working day.
  • However, if it turns out that it was authorised, the amount may be charged again.
  • In the event of technical errors or fraud, the bank analyses the situation and may initiate the recovery of funds.

If you feel that the outcome is unsatisfactory, you may make a formal complaint.
