What should I do before lodging a dispute?

If you don't recognise a transaction or feel you've been incorrectly charged by the merchant, before lodging a dispute, check if:

 

  1. The business trades under a different name to the one they registered. Select the transaction and use the Look Who’s Charging feature for more details like:
    • The trading name and logo
    • A map of the transaction location
    • An address, phone number, and website, if available.
  2. You can resolve the issue with the merchant directly.

 

If you still don’t recognise the transaction or can't resolve the issue with the merchant, dispute the transaction in Online Banking or the Westpac App.
