What is "The Social"?

The Social is a fun, casual restaurant that focuses on bringing people together over great food and drinks. They offer subscription services where you can sign up for regular meals or special deals, making it easy to enjoy your favorites without having to think about it. If you see a charge from them, it’s likely for your subscription or a recent delicious meal you enjoyed with friends.

The Social: The name of the business or establishment where the transaction occurred.
Social: This often indicates that the transaction is related to a social venue, like a bar, club, or social event.
Transaction Type: Refers to what kind of purchase was made (e.g., food, drinks, services) but is not explicitly detailed in this descriptor.
Location: Often, the location may not be fully presented, but it suggests where the service or product was delivered.
Account Number: While not present here, a typical descriptor might include a masked card number representing your payment method to keep your information secure.

Verify With Receipt

The best way to tell if this charge is fraudulent is to find the receipt. You may have an electronic copy of the receipt, which Chargeback can help you find by searching your email accounts.

Chargeback helps you identify unwanted subscriptions and charges, and help you fight them to get your money back.

Food and Beverage Purchases: Charges can stem from orders placed for food, drinks, or takeout services.
Delivery Fees: Users utilizing delivery services to receive food from The Social might see additional delivery charges on their bills.
Service Charges: Gratuity or service fees might be automatically applied to larger groups or special events.
Merchandise Purchases: Customers may purchase branded items or merchandise through The Social, leading to direct charges.
Misunderstanding Promotions: Some users reported being charged after assuming a promotional deal was free but overlooked the terms and conditions.
Third-Party Apps: Charges could come from external services linked to The Social for ordering or reservations, leading to confusion over billing.

If I see this charge, what should I do?

If you see this charge and aren’t expecting it, you have various options.

First, try to contact the thesocialrestaurant.com via one of the support methods we listed below and inquire about the charge. See if they will refund it and cancel any associated subscriptions you might have.

If the thesocialrestaurant.com refused to issue a refund or you cannot get in touch with the company, call your bank or financial institution and open a credit card dispute. Record screenshot evidence from your prior conversations with thesocialrestaurant.com, and use that to open your credit card dispute. Tell your bank or credit card issuer that you do not recognize the charge and do not recall signing up for the service.

If this sounds like too much of a hassle, you can have Chargeback do it for you.
