The Visa Dispute Monitoring Program is a program designed to help Visa cardholders resolve disputes with merchants. The program is available to all Visa cardholders, and there is no cost to participate.
The program works by allowing cardholders to file a dispute with Visa if they have been unable to resolve the issue directly with the merchant. Once the dispute is filed, Visa will work with the merchant to try to resolve the issue. If the dispute is not resolved, Visa will provide the cardholder with a refund for the amount in dispute.
There are a few things to keep in mind when using the Visa Dispute Monitoring Program:
- The program is only available for disputes relating to purchases made with a Visa card.
- The program is not available for disputes relating to charges that were not authorized by the cardholder.
- The program is not available for disputes relating to services or products that were not received.
- The program is not available for disputes that have already been resolved through the credit bureau or the court system.
If you are having difficulty resolving a dispute with a merchant, the Visa Dispute Monitoring Program can be a great resource.
