It’s not necessarily which card it is, it’s which network it gets processed by. Of course since I don't use debit cards I have no personal experience with chargebacks on them.Īs it does use the same VISA network for Visa Debit purchases along with all the other Visa cards on the network, the Visa zero liability applies, like your credit card. Or if they do, the language is much vaguer than for credit cards. Since such proofs are hard to make, the consumer usually wins.īut AFAIK most banks' debit card terms and conditions don't mention anything about chargebacks and what recourse consumers have if the seller fails to deliver what they advertised. They cancel the chargeback reimbursement only if the seller can prove that they fulfilled the transaction as advertised. Unless the seller provides a compelling respond, the chargeback stands. They reimburse once the consumer provides some evidence of seller fault. This is how most banks do credit card chargebacks. I would consider going to the police on this one. You probably bought something from one of those 3rd party sellers on BestBuy.ca, not from Best Buy itself. I think that money will get back to you eventually. For Visa Debit it is like a hybrid Credit/Debit card the way it works with authorizations and refunds. For the Macbook clearly there was a mistake, or a substitution theft in the warehouse.įor the debit refund (I'm assuming Visa Debit), they can be slow and take a while, up to 10 business days sometimes.

When the order was shipped, did you get tracking numbers for the order? Have you verified these on the couriers website? Just seems a crazy thing to say "keep waiting and that the Macbook might show up in a couple days" - why would it ever show up if all the tracking numbers for the order are delivered and match the shipping labels on the boxes. Now I'm waiting for a LOST ITEM claim which they said can take up to 14 business days.

This is honestly the most triggering, mind blowing thing they could have said because currently, I'm still waiting on my $2400 refund and my $3,600 Macbook Pro. I used to shop here for all my electronic needs but now that has to change. I for one am never shopping with Best Buy again. They will all provide you with better service and your money back on cancelled orders and usually same day shipping. You have way better options for online shopping. I advise everyone here to STAY AWAY from Best Buy. I have only been told to keep waiting and my Bank said a chargeback can take months. So right now as Im making this post, I'm currently sitting at a missing $6,000. Now I've called Best Buy about this and they told me to keep waiting and that the Macbook might show up in a couple days? This is honestly the most triggering, mind blowing thing they could have said because currently, I'm still waiting on my $2400 refund and my $3,600 Macbook Pro.

The package that was supposed to have my Macbook, instead had PRINTING PAPER INSIDE IT. When my package showed up the following day, I had received my Nintendo Switch and Printer, everythings great so far, but then I got to my last package. I ordered a Nintendo switch, Macbook Pro, and a Printer. It's a debit card, you cannot authorize payments, You either charge the card or you dont lol.Īfter I cancelled my order, 2 days later I decided to place another one with my correct items and everything was going great until my Package showed up. I have called Best Buy almost 4 times now and I still don't have my money. It's been about a week now and every-time I go ahead and call Best Buy, their response is the same, "Please wait another couple days, we've returned the authorization". I was charged $2400 to my debit card and I didn't receive any refund at all for an order that was never even shipped up to this day.

First off, I placed an order a whole week ago and I had it cancelled because I wanted to make some changes to the order. I've been having the worst week recently with Best Buy.
