I disputed the charges and they gave me a provisional credit. We were then able to get the issue resolved and the money was returned to our account. Today on XX/XX/XXXX, they took the money back out of our account and reversed the charges, when I called to find out why they had done this, they said that since I was given a temporary credit, they were allowed to take this back out of our account.
