Q: Can I stop payment on a Visa card purchase?

No, once a Visa debit or credit card transaction has been authorized by signature, PIN or online, the payment cannot be stopped. If there is a problem with the purchase, you can file a dispute after the transaction posts to your account.

How to dispute a transaction
  • Allow the transaction to post.
  • Contact the merchant to try to resolve the issue.
  • If you cannot resolve the issue with the merchant, file a dispute with Mountain America.
During the dispute process, Mountain America may issue a temporary credit while we work with the merchant.
