What it means

Mastercard 4860 means you agreed to refund the customer but the credit never landed on their statement. Often a timing issue — refunds can take 5-10 days. If you actually issued the refund and have proof, you win.

Required evidence

What you need to win

  • Refund transaction ID and timestamp
  • Email or message showing refund confirmation sent to customer
  • Bank settlement record for the refund

How to actually do it

  1. 01. Pull the refund record from your processor — Stripe shows refund_id and status.
  2. 02. Forward the customer the refund confirmation again with the transaction ID.
  3. 03. Highlight that bank-side processing takes 5-10 days.
Common mistakes

Don't do this
