What Happened

On 9 May 2026, a customer initiated a chargeback of ₹296.00 against my merchant account (Transaction ID: py_9B69fF4eE9Bc5EF) citing "Goods/services not provided." The chargeback reason was code 1064.

I communicated with the customer and confirmed they received their service. On 26 May 2026, I sent Zwitch's Dispute Team the full transaction success proof — including API JSON response confirming "status": "Success" with operator ID RJ1334330002R. Despite this, Zwitch said the proof arrived "too late" and represented the chargeback without it.

Since then, my account has been under a debit freeze. I have emailed disputes@bankopen.co, letstalk@bankopen.co, the KYC team, and the general Zwitch support channel multiple times. Each response simply redirects me to Ticket #1010779which has never been resolved.

I am now publicly releasing this information so that other merchants are aware of this practice and to put on record my demand for immediate resolution before I pursue legal action.
