Debit card transaction advice


Recommended Posts

Hi I was hoping someone may be able to answer this....a company has taken money from my bank (debit card transaction) which was not authorised we had a verbal agreement where I would pay a certain amount every 2weeks but av just decided to take it all. I rang them and they refused to cancel it and the bank said there was nothing they could do. My balance is showing the money has gone but it is still pending and haven't actually reached the other side yet so I cancelled my card so I get a new long card number and security code, and I was wondering because this transaction is still pending would it actually go through or will it bounce back to my account?

I think it will still go through as the payment has already been authorised at your bank. However you could try and contact your bank and request a Debit Card chargeback - not sure if they will look into this as this is normally used when you have paid for something and you dont receive it.

If it's a valid debt then there is very little you can do. It will still go though as the account itself hasn't been closed.

Use visa chargeback or just fill out a form at branch. Because you didnt authorise payment he bank should refund money.
