Card transactional issues and chargeback rights

You should always check the accuracy of transactions appearing on your card statements. This will help you identify any unusual activity or transactions you do not agree with.

Keeping vouchers and transaction records from merchants, financial institutions, or by electronic terminals such as ATMS will help you to reconcile your statements. Here are some common issues and what to do to try to resolve them.

In some circumstances we may be able to dispute a transaction for you with the merchant’s financial institution (called a ‘chargeback’). If you would like to chargeback a transaction, you will need to lodge the dispute within 30 days after the date of the statement on which the transaction is recorded.
