Paypal Dispute

[Alexx..]

I was wondering if I have a case to open a dispute on paypal.

I sent a deposit for a tattoo a week or so ago, and I decided I didn't want it yet so I asked for a refund and they emailed me back today and said it was non-refundable. That would have been fine if they mentioned it was non-refundable earlier. They just said it was a £60 deposit.

Do I have a case for opening a dispute cause they never told me it was non-refundable?

(I have emails to prove that they never mentioned the words "non-refundable")

You could always try, you got nothing to lose (apart from £60) I think the ball may be on their half though Just tell paypal you never received your product.

yeah just tell them you didn't get your tattoo through the post lol

or say that you might of been hacked and that you didn't pay it

i can't do that cause i have an email saying that i paid it to them haha

i sent paypal an email asking if i have a case, but idk if not i'll just reschedule it.

Isn't that the whole point of a deposit, that if you suddenly decide you don't want, in your case the tattoo, that the tattoo place keeps the deposit?

[Alexx..]

Yeah, if they've already drew the design etc but I hadn't even chose a date.

Mate, a deposit is a deposit, your not getting it back and to be honest, it's your fault because you paid the DEPOSIT.

You have no chance. Deposits are exactly for this situation. If deposits were refundable in these situations then they would be pointless.
Refundable deposits are normally found in situations as a form of insurance of damages (for example renting a flat or a car, you would lose the deposit if something was damaged.) Where as in this case deposits are there to put people off ordering/booking tattoos unless there 100% sure because it messes with there schedule and staff.

Don't be a **** and dispute it just because its an easy thing to do, at the end of the day you shouldn't of ordered something you don't want thus messing people about.

If you haven't chosen a date yet just put it off for as long as possible and when the time comes you can decided if you really want it or not.

It's law to state whether a deposit is non-refundable due to there being many different types of deposits. I would try it

[kasi]

it should be common sense that deposits are non refundable
deposits/down-payments for anything are non refundable
