Las Vegas Casino Fights Over Credit3 January 2001LAS VEGAS, Nevada – Jan. 3, 2001 --Hard Rock hotel-casino sued First Tennessee Bank National Association and its Las Vegas customer, Doreen Durano, alleging the bank "backcharged" $213,000 it had paid to the hotel-casino after she disputed the validity of the credit card charges. In a Clark County District Court lawsuit, Hard Rock said the bank breached a contract by implementing charge backs to the hotel-casino's account and refusing to reverse the charge backs despite alleged documents from Hard Rock proving the validity of the charges. Hard Rock, which alleged the bank agreed since September 1994 to reimburse the hotel-casino for Visa USA Inc. and Mastercard International Inc. credit card transactions, said Durano charged $213,000 worth of goods and services at the hotel-casino from April 30 through May 28. The defendants could not be reached for comment. |
