Hi chaps,
Needed some advice on the following please...
Purchased some house products (several of) from an online seller which arrived fine, paid using my visa credit card. Unfortunately the wife had a change of heart so we returned them after a couple of days, again paying for the delivery using visa credit card.

Now apparently the seller is claiming a couple of the items were faulty on return (although they were returned in the same packaging\box if not more, but thats not the discussion here) and has deducted just over £90 from my refund. My question is would I be able to claim any of this back from visa, or is that not possible?
Any advice appreciated
Tiff

    I think it very unlikely that you will succeed, I suspect the seller sees this as a re stocking fee - very difficult for either party to prove without photos.

    No cover for change of mind.

    Now if the item's was faulty/not as described when recieved. That is another matter.

    You have 7 days to change your mind after goods are received under the distance selling regulations.

    That is not in question here - OP has been refunded - the charge is for alleged damaged goods returned.

    DSR, has no impact of chargebacks.
    So while what you say is legally true. To his CC it means nothing.

    Also I think the OP. Needs to add some more info.

    Such as in what way did the retailer claim the goods were faulty. If they had been sent back unused?

  • Thank you for the information, I have requested pictures of the damaged goods but seller hasnt\isnt replying, they were unused but the seller said 2 of the 6 items were returned faulty so apparently damaged in transit by the courier. I'm beginning to believe there isn't really a case to!answer I guess
