Effects

  • Emits Dispute.answered.
  • Performed by the Customer Lead.
  • One-way (money): it waits out its delay window, and runs in the send and do modes.
  • Freezes the submitted Evidence; later changes to the work do not alter it.
  • For a chargeback, sends the Evidence to the card issuer through the payment account.
  • Builds the Evidence from records: the Agreement Version the buyer accepted, the delivery Evidence and the Actions on the Order.
  • A chargeback gets one submission; an answered inquiry, or a full refund, closes it with no fee.
