Customer states that four ACH debits to the same merchant are unauthorized and signs the WSUD. The same day we are notified by the customer we contact the merchant and receive information verifying the name, email address, IP address and other info for the account holder. We are confident that the account holder did authorize the transactions but are unsure of the best way to proceed. Is it better to give provisional credit and return the ACHs and hope they don't represent, and risk possibly taking a loss, or to simply notify the customer that their claim is being denied and allowing them to request copies of the documentation we used to make the determination? If we do deny the claim to we have to go through the process of issuing a provisional credit and immediately debiting it, or can we just skip to the denial? Any help is appreciated.
