CURRENT USE CASE · UNAUTHORISED PAYMENTS

Refund promptly. Investigate thoroughly.

Unauthorised payments involve customer service, payment operations and specialist teams. TurnFriendly connects the report, refund handling and subsequent investigation in one case file – with clear responsibilities, deadlines and documented decisions.

Record the report · Handle the refund separately · Subsequently clarify who bears the loss. Documents, specialist responses and further customer concerns remain connected in the same case file.

The CJEU clarifies that merely considering the customer grossly negligent does not justify refusing an immediate refund. The exception for reasonable grounds to suspect customer fraud requires written notification of those grounds to the competent national authority.
