Let’s look at the details

  • Here are some useful steps to take before contacting us:

    • Check the date, time and location of the transaction to see if any of the details are familiar to you.
    • Check with joint account holders. Retailers like Amazon allow you to set up household accounts, so check with other members of your family.
    • Check for regular payments such as direct debits or standing orders. This is often how you'll pay things like your energy or phone bill.
    • Is it a subscription? Some streaming services or gyms can take a payment once a free trial ends. Contact the supplier first to discuss the transaction.
    • Check the business name. Some retailers may operate under a name you don't recognise. 
    • Check any payment codes. Some transactions appear as codes in your statement.
  • Because of Section 75, if you’ve bought something with your Lloyds credit card, the business or retailer and Lloyds may be equally responsible if things go wrong.

    So, for example, if the item or service is faulty, doesn’t arrive or isn’t as described, you may be able to claim a refund from either the business or retailer or from Lloyds.

    Learn more about how Section 75 protects your credit card spending. Then, if you’d like us to take your case a step further, we’ll need a few things from you:

    • A written summary of your case to date.
    • A copy of your contract, invoice and/or terms and conditions.
    • A copy of any additional transactions made to the business or retailer that were not made on your credit card.
    • Sometimes, we’ll also ask to see photographic evidence and/or warranties. This is just another way for us to collect as much information as possible.
  • Usually, the fastest way to resolve the issue is by contacting the business or retailer.

    If you raise a dispute through us, we aim to resolve your claim within 5 working days.

  • A pending transaction is money set aside for the retailer to collect from your account. They’ll usually take the payment within a few days, but sometimes it can take longer.

    If the retailer cancels the transaction, or confirms the transaction has failed, it will automatically be removed from your transactions list. This should happen within a week, and you won’t be charged.

    You can't cancel or dispute a pending transaction.

    In some cases, we can remove a pending transaction from your account and return the amount within 24 hours. Just keep in mind that the retailer can still take the payment later. 

    If something doesn’t look right, or you’re worried about a pending transaction, we’re always here to help. Send us a message.
