Chargebacks in Canada are more often decided in favour of the merchant instead of the consumer, as I've found out the hard way.
By the way, good luck with arbitration, courts, or the police in Canada. They can't even stop brazen car thefts, even if you track down your vehicle and are able to locate it at a rail yard [1]. 28,550 vehicles were stolen in Canada in the first half of 2024. Even rape cases and murder are being dismissed because courts don't have the resources [2]. The legal system is collapsing in that country. I say that as a Canadian who recently left the country for good.

- amatecha 2y agoCurious where you went? Indeed, there are some pretty noteworthy issues here. Though, the one chargeback I've ever done was accepted, but you can always sense just how fragile every interaction is with nearly all systems we deal with every day. It can go badly for you and you typically have zero recourse. I mean, ToS of basically all services says you can be banned for any reason and without explanation, so that's cool (though not specific to Canada of course).
