Preguntas frecuentes

The descriptor says a day I didn't ride. Fraud?

Charges post 1–2 days after the ride, and the stamp reflects the ride time, not posting time. Check both days in your history before assuming fraud.

Dispute Rights & Fraud Prevention

If you suspect this charge is fraudulent or billing in error, you have strict federal rights protecting your account.

Always review your statement carefully and take action within 60 days.

What should I do if I don't recognize this charge?

First, check with family members or anyone authorized on your account. If the charge remains unrecognized, contact your bank immediately to report it. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act (FCBA), you have 60 days from the statement date to dispute unauthorized credit card charges.

How long does it take for a disputed charge to be removed?

Once you file a dispute, your bank must acknowledge it within 30 days and resolve it within two billing cycles (not exceeding 90 days). During this time, the disputed amount is usually placed on a provisional hold, meaning you do not have to pay it.
