How do i have a book replacement fee reversed?
Earlier this summer, I was assessed a book replacement fee of $70, but I returned the book in question shortly thereafter. The fee is still on my student account. How can I have it reversed? Thanks!
Answer
You are correct; the books you were charged for were indeed returned. However, the $70 charge you incurred in June of this year was assessed because you returned the 7 books when they were extremely overdue -- our overdue fines cap at $10 per item. Therefore, you incurred a charge of:
7 items x $10 per item = $70.
