    On February 16th, I received a letter from my credit card company asking me if I made two purchases with Sentrylink. BY MISTAKE, I stated that no it was a duplicate charge. As a result, Sentrylink suspended our account. Since that time, we have made multiple phone calls and multiple emails informing them that we reported the two charges by mistake and had the credit card company reverse the chargeback. Despite all that, Sentrylink has refused to reinstate our account and we don't have access to our data. Attached, please see the emails as well as the letter from our bank indicating that the chargeback was reversed. AS you notice, we have sent THREE emails dated 3/3, 3/8 and 3/14 and have not received a response to either one of them.

    Dear *****,

    In March, we replied to ********************** bank through our payment processing provider, ******. We tried to have the two chargebacks and
    fees reversed. The case status was closed in the buyer's favor, and SentryLink incurred the original costs and fees that ****** charged in March.

    I also had some email correspondence with ******************. We agreed that once the dispute was closed through PayPal and all charges were
    reversed, he would pay the fee to reinstate his account. On **********************'s end, the chargeback dispute through PayPal can take up to
    60 days to close, depending on the financial institution. 

    I will contact ****************** tomorrow to see if I can resolve this matter.

    If you have any questions, please get in touch with me at (****************, Monday through Friday, 9 AM until 5 PM EST.

    Sincerely,
