i placed an order of 5 items w/amaonian, they charged me on my credit card for the entire order ( $50 us bucks ). …and now for something not completely different but probably not unusual of amazonian. They said there was nothing they could do about it but I had to call a certain number for customers to get a refund. I reported it to Chat and told them I thought the Amazon office that served me was committing fraud. Both packages obviously had just one item in them. Today they delivered an item prepaid 329 rupees and told I had to pay 1199 rupees. The item was 799 rupees PREPAID, but I was told I had to pay 2000 rupees. They behaved a while, but started it again yesterday (I am furnishing an apartment). I made up a chart of all order numbers and tracking numbers along with photos and contacted chat. Luckily, I had saved some of the boxes and was able to confirm they wanted me to pay again at the door which I did before I realized the pattern. I am in India using Amazon.IN A few weeks ago I got suspicious because I knew I had prepaid via VISA but the PREPAID section of the label on the packages had been torn off. Did they automatically refund the erroneous double charge? Did it cause your account to overdraw or bounce something? What was Amazon’s response? If this has happened to you, please do let us know what the outcome was in a comment below. If you don’t see a refund, and if contacting Amazon does not get you an immediate refund, then the next step is to file a dispute with your bank. Either way you will want to contact Amazon, using their live chat system. The first thing to do if you notice a duplicate charge in your bank account or on your credit card statement is look to see whether it was immediately refunded, as in our reader’s case. Has this happened to you? And what should you do if it does?
