VISA 80 - Incorrect Transaction Amount or Account Number (Legacy)

Network: Visa · Code: 80 · Category: Processing error · Evidence window: 120 days

What this code means

Legacy amount/account code.

This is a processing-error code: something in how the transaction was submitted (amount, currency, timing, duplication) is contested. The dispute is decided on your transaction and settlement records.

How to respond

Show the correct processing record: settlement reports, batch timestamps, and corrected transaction data. Where the error was fixed (e.g. a duplicate was refunded), document the fix with dates and amounts rather than arguing the original error away.

You typically have 120 days from the dispute date to submit your evidence package through your payment processor. Missing the window forfeits the dispute regardless of merit, so assemble the checklist below as soon as the dispute arrives.
