marc_p Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 If any of you haven't seen this, then you must read Jezz's classic response and end to the matter http://mkivsupra.net/vbb/showpost.php?p=2150549&postcount=24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 The reason the dispute threads are locked to the relevant parties is to prevent other people rattling on and not adding any input. This may be the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may be the case. But the way I'm getting around it is that I am not putting any input into it, I am mutual on the matter and felt urged to inform members of a single humorous post;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, but I blame the digital age, money is no longer safe in your account unless its been withdrawn and sitting in your hand, even then they can still chase it with a dispute, companies make it too easy for fraudsters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 2 sellers owing me money at the moment. One is just ignoring me (not involved in this forum btw) and it looks like i'm going to have to kick up a merry fuss: Just because you can't see them, they think they can lie/cheat/ignore you. I'm quite glad that the banks etc stand up for the little guy. As for the dispute thread, I repeat my earlier statement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivan Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Personally I think fraudsters have no place on this forum and feel the mods should have him banned.

AlexM Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 I read it, and earmarked the guy as dishonest and someone I want nothing to do with. I'd be taking it furthur if I was Jezz though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Class One Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Persoanally, if I were Jezz I would be looking at taking the matter further with the merchant, and if I were still a mod I'd be accessing the admincp right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They need our businesses to take their cards, charge us plenty for the privilege and the moment a card user has a moan the poor merchant bares the brunt! Chargebacks make me so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Jezz, just write back with the details, timeline of stuff, and copies of everything, including a copy of the dispute transcript, to prove he knew full well about the problem and was trying to rip you off. Mention the word fraud a couple of times. Card companies really don't like having the piss taken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 MMM from the outside looking in on this dispute I'd almost say it was mr Wu's garage having a bit of a giraffe here. I mean whats a second hand rad worth these days? Enough to make a real big fuss of? Enough to go mental on here and raise a dispute? Enough to call back a credit card payment? Only on principal and only if you firmly believe you are 100% in the right. Only way that would happen is if you did indeed believe what you are saying. The fact that there is a middle man ie the garage and the fact that so called highly reccomended (turbo-fit for instance) trade with disregard for other peoples money would have me wondering about this case. Although some cretin individuals (MK47 for instance) ripped people off for less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Mention the word fraud a couple of times. Card companies really don't like having the piss taken In my experience they don't give a to$$. I once handed the c/card company and Police a perfect opportunity to grab some card fraudsters with evidence. Nobody cared. The card company doesn't lose out, the merchants do. The Police are more worried about filling in paperwork. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Police are more worried about filling in paperwork. More likely the card company didn't care. If they don't want to substantiate as in about 99% of cases then the Police don't have a victim. No victim, no case. Most CC companies write off low level fraud without reporting it, so infact the true level on cc scamming is unknown as most of it is not reported.
