    There is nothing in this thread to be frustrated about. It is all frustrations that is triggered by 'real world' happenings with respect to what is said in the post.....

    If someone reads something that they do not like to read, they
    challenge me for the sake of challenging.

    Bitter truth is advice in OP is valid, OP will remain valid ...



    What OP is valid? You have altered it beyond all recognition multiple times.

    If you recall earlier, people here were saying bank simply will ignore and they will not entertain a dispute because the customer clicked agreed to T&C's of this website.

    Atleast now are we in agreement that they will agree for a dispute!!

    So my OP still stands tall !

    hpuse, remember this post below which has been shown to you numerous times but you always seems to ignore it?
    My son got caught with I-Visa as well. He rang them up and they said they only give refunds on receipt of an email. He sent an email, but they kept insisting that it hadn't been received. He sent several emails and strangely none of them were received and they kept putting the phone down on him. Contacted his bank who initially refunded the £23.99, but today received a letter from them stating that I-Visa had acted legitimately and they debited the £23.99.
    Keith, you may want to take notice of the above as well.

    Also, from that link you posted, heres the relevant section:
    A letter sent by Amazon said: “A credit for the transaction and any related fees will show on your next statement.” Taxreturngateway has 45 days to dispute this decision, it added.
    Aka, show they acted legally and within the law and the money will be returned the company.

    Would be inclined to agree Richard but:

    They cannot be arsed, plain and simple. With this being a hot topic at present you would think they would have pulled this thread and had a sticky maybe with their own MSE advice. (the have deleted and edited posts on it thus far)

    I am sick to the back teeth of me and others proving he is factually incorrect adn him mentioning something else totally irrelevant and again being proved wrong, he is a fvcking idiot and the biggest troll ever to embark on these sites

    I hadn't even seen that thread and it might have bypassed the mods as well.

    As far as I'm aware there is only a small team the looks after the board and it is not moderated as such.

    The only way to guarantee brining stuff like this to the attention of the team is to use the official report system.

    Hence my question, how many people have actually reported this thread through the official channels.

    If lots, then the team obviously can't be arsed and we are all wasting our time arguing with the [STRIKE]idiot[/STRIKE] op.

    If not lots, then lets start and there may be action.

    But that thread is on the Site Feedback board.

    With a title like that one might reasonably expect site officials to at least read the board.
    The conclusion must be that they have read it and decided to ignore it... for whatever reason.

    No question? Brining? What's your question? Question mark?

    If you are a site official, would you have ignored it, wealdroam?
