Occasionally the billing amount from the credit card company does not reflect the charge adjustment due to the suspension of traffic.

5. How to respond
We will refund by one of the following methods.
(1) Refund the next time you request a credit card

(3) Refund by adjusting the balance of the "Hiker/prepayment" balance management service

  • If you have used the mileage reduction amount or hiker balance before, we will put it back into the mileage reduction amount or hiker balance.
