I contacted Capital One several times to have them dispute since the dispute process with XXXX had failed. XXXX refused to return my money or refused to give me a product that works without the original packaging. MY QUESTION TO THEM WAS.. WHY DOES THE ORIGINAL PACKAGING MATTER ON A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT? WHY CA N'T THEY SEND ME A REPLACEMENT PRODUCT WITHOUT THE ORIGINAL PACKAGING? We took this problem to Capital One, they initially credited back the funds while investigating and although the information was given to them to make the proper decision as they restated everything on their monitored and recorded phone conversation to us, they wanted to send out a letter to us and I feel this was a stall tactic as the letter was never received, so when I called them back today XX/XX/XXXX to see why they put the charge back on my account and where the letter was, they stated that because the letter was never returned to them with my claim, they ca n't credit back the account, but they will gladly re-open the case. I was on the phone with them 2 hours for them to state that after reviewing the case, they see that it was indeed back with the merchant but the 60 days from the date of claim has surpassed, which that is not the case, it was started end of XX/XX/XXXX and they have to close the case with allowing the merchant to have the charge, but they will give us {$210.00} credit just because. This does not make any sense to me. This is not just, I should not be out of a product and out of the money I spent on it. Please see attached docs. Thank you, XXXX XXXX
