So what do you do say if someone fails to pay a 3,000.00 bill, then you see a chargeback for 600.00 come through your account? Small claims court? Any lawyers here on Gfy?

If its over $500...i think you can bypass small claims court & go straight to reg.
Don't take it personally...remember, i'm a conspiracy nut & quite possibly mad

I may be wrong on this, but I think if I file here they have to show up, or have someone appointed to show up or they default.Comment

Ya they would be served with papers. Im willing to pay all the fees and whatnot on this. I was going to let it go till they did the chargeback. That money they paid me, then charged back, was for traffic I purchased and have reciepts for, so its not even money that went into my pocket.Originally posted by pr0

it really depends on the facts, the paper trail and what can be proven and whether or not your claims can be effectively disputed. if he has an argument, then you might lose more money than you are trying to recover.Originally posted by stickyfingerzdotnet
trying to fight the chargeback is usually pointless as well. his bank has to reverse it or he has to call his bank and ask them to reverse it. either way, its him and the bank (of which he is a client) against you.
without knowing the facts... it would seem to me that you feel you delivered what you promised and they are prepared to argue that you didn't. don't get emotional and caught up in trying to win or better them. be rational... its about money... nothing else. if its going to cost you financial and emotional hardship to keep going and possibly recover nothing, then you need to ask yourself if its worth it.Comment

They basically just halted communication. Ive now sent two invoices by email. I was prepared to give lots of time till the chargeback.Comment

... what is their incentive to respond to someone who is not in a position to make realistic threats? of course they don't reply. there is no reason to.They basically just halted communication. Ive now sent two invoices by email. I was prepared to give lots of time till the chargeback.

if he called his bank and charged it back... its over. what do you mean "freeze that account"? its his bank that issues the chargeback... its their credit card. its their client. its 100% out of your control.
if the transaction was for traffic, then i don't think you are going to get it reversed. he can just say he did not get what he thought he was getting and thats the end of it. i seriously doubt he called his bank and said someone used his card without his authorization... he gave a reason why he did not want to pay. that puts the ball back in your court and basically, you stand little chance of changing it. you have to find out the reason for the chargeback. if he lied saying his card was stolen/used without his authorization... then i would say you have a chance. if he said he did not get what he thought he was buying (i forgot the terms and codes - its been a while) - then you can't argue something that abstract with a bank that has no real reason to take your side against their own client.
from what i have seen so far, i would say that the best advice for you is to just walk away and consider it a lesson learned.Comment

On the chargeback he paid me via Amex to my paypal. The account that is associated with that is the one I can freeze so they cant pull money back off me. I only had about 18.00 in the paypal when they did the chargeback. I dont keep it in there just for that reason.Originally posted by Pleasurepays Paypal tends to do this stuff at will with or without a chargeback.

On the authorization part, that is actually what it says not authorized. That it wasnt authorized. Fortunetly I have a printed out PO# and an invoice for the work order amount. I also have the reciept from where I bought the traffic for them. They wanted traffic so they dumped money in my account to purchase it from whatever sources I needed to. In all I spent about 1300.00 on traffic.Originally posted by Pleasurepays
Well 3:15am here so im off for a nap. Thanks to all those that gave advice, and Ill check back on this in the AM.Comment

1. Registered Letters
2. Collection Agency (and add ~20-30% for your expenses, time, etc. as "collection fee" or whatever)
3. Lawyer, but that doesn't pay off most of the time for that amount, especially if 1&2 didn't work.
And be prepared to wait for your money for a long time, i.e. 1-2 years
