refund on a tip?    • x  I dined at a restaurant a week ago, and
the bill came to $250 before tax. I intended to tip $60 but
accidentally punched in $600. I realized this after a week when
I was sorting out my credit card receipts.  Question 1. Is it OK
to ask for a partial refund ($540) on the tip I gave? Question
2. If the restaurant refuses to refund, I suppose there is no
way to fight it?    1. Click to Upload a photo (10 MB limit)
