Saying your card was stolen wouldn't work if you used a device/IP/address that has already been linked to you. Well, it might, but they can see all of that information and more so there is a high likelihood of it being rejected.

Chargebacks aren't some sort of magical, no-evidence needed type of action. You seem to have no idea how chargebacks work and I don't blame you for it, but I'd highly suggest spending some time reading into it before opening one. Go on Reddit and search for posts from people detailing their own chargeback experience using your your specific bank and from there you'll be able to gain an idea of how it works, how long it takes, and what sort of information you may need to send them.

GL.

By the way, does your Microsoft's order tracking # show it as having been delivered to your address? Did Microsoft refuse to investigate or to open a trace into the package? What reason did they give for denying your refund? (These are just a few questions that you'll likely be asked by your bank in response to your chargeback.)

Thanks, I did not think you could even talk about chargebacks publicly like reddit.
Microsoft opened an investigation, I called over the phone, got an Indian call center, they gave me "you need to call back in 2 weeks when we finish the investigation" twice because they said they had no idea what I was talking about after the first 2 week wait, then they told me the package was delivered according to tracking and they are not legally liable.

I've done several DNA SE's without an issue, but they seem to want to go hard on this legit issue.
Item was a special edition Xbox Controller, less than $100.

I see.

What does the tracking history show? If it was delivered via UPS or Fedex, it'll most likely have a picture and by viewing it you'll be able to tell if it had been delivered to your address or somewhere else. If it was via USPS, it might be a tad tougher but they're pretty good at tracing packages and if was misdelivered or never got to you, they should've found out after the investigation.

Unless you literally can't survive without the $100, I'd honestly just take the loss and save the chargeback for something big. Chargebacks are really powerful and you can typically only use them a few times a year with any given bank, so you should be saving them to be used on large, $3k-15k orders, otherwise you'd basically be wasting them.

I'd keep pushing hard or simply take the loss and refund something easy and fast to sell in order to get back the capital you lost. Just my 2c. Don't waste a chargeback on $100.
