Transactions may be disputed at any time up to 180 (one hundred eighty) days from the date of transaction by the buyers as per the Card Association Rules. In the event of rejection/ suspension of payments to the seller, Chargebacks, refunds and/or any other dispute relating to the transactions contemplated under these Terms of Use (“DISPUTED TRANSACTION”), on any grounds whatsoever, we will forthwith notify the seller of the same.
