New to this? What's a prompt?

A prompt is the message you send to the AI tool. Copy the one on this page, put your own details where it asks, and read the answer before you act on it.

What the prompt labels mean

The person didn't share their exact words, so we wrote this from what they described. We haven't tested it, and they didn't use this exact version.

I paid thousands up front for spa services and then the spa closed before I could use them. I disputed the charge with the bank that financed it, but they keep denying it. Here's what happened and what they said. Help me rewrite my dispute: the key terms to use, the best phrasing, what documents to send, and a phone script.

Optional stronger version

Our rewrite with extra checks. The poster didn't test it.

Before you start, ask me 1–3 short questions about the details below and wait for my answers. Once I've answered, confirm the plan in one line and run the whole task start to finish.

Goal: Rewrite a denied refund dispute so it's clear, complete and backed by the right documents.

Questions to ask me first:
- What did you pay for, how much, and when did the business close?
- Who processed the payment (card, bank or financing company), and what did their denials say?
- What records do you have (receipts, contract, closure notice)?

Inputs (fill in or confirm):
- What I paid for and the amount: [DETAILS]
- Bank or card issuer: [NAME]
- Their denial letters: [PASTE]
- Records I have: [LIST]

Rules:
- Use the terms the bank's own dispute process uses, and quote its reasons for denying.
- List each document to send and what it proves.
- Mark any legal rule you mention as something to confirm, not a sure thing.
- Keep the letter short, factual and polite.

Checkpoint: Before writing the letter, list the facts and documents you're relying on so I can confirm them.

If you get stuck: If I'm missing a key document, tell me how to get it instead of skipping it.

Verify before you finish: Check that dates and amounts in the letter match my records.

Output: A dispute letter, a document checklist and a short phone script.

Done when: I have a dispute I can submit today with every claim backed by a record.

Outcome

Suuz Martines paid thousands up front for spa services, and then the spa shut down. Martines disputed the charge with Synchrony Bank, the bank behind the voucher, which kept denying the request for months. Martines then put the case into ChatGPT. It suggested core terms and the best phrasing, a list of supporting materials to submit, possible legal grounds and even a script in case a real person answered the phone. Five days after the new dispute, Martines got an approval letter and then the money back. Martines' advice: don't believe everything ChatGPT says; you have to really pore through it.
