Question 1

Why does my bank statement show 'TIM HORTONS*' instead of the full name?

Accepted Answer

The charge labeled TIM HORTONS* on your bank statement is the abbreviated merchant name used by Tim Hortons when processing card payments. This is completely normal and simply reflects a coffee or food purchase made at a Tim Hortons location in Canada. The asterisk is commonly added by payment processors when shortening a merchant name to fit statement character limits.

Question 2

I see a $5.00 charge from TIM HORTONS* but I don't remember spending that much — is that normal?

Accepted Answer

Yes, a $5.00 charge from TIM HORTONS* is a typical amount for a Tim Hortons purchase in Canada, which could reflect a coffee combo, a beverage with a baked good, or a small meal item. If you frequently visit Tim Hortons, this amount is consistent with a standard order. Check your visit history in the Tim Hortons app if you have an account to confirm the transaction details.

Question 3

How do I get a receipt or proof of purchase for the TIM HORTONS* charge on my statement?

Accepted Answer

To get a receipt for a TIM HORTONS* charge, you can check the Tim Hortons app if you used your rewards account during the purchase, as it logs your order history. Alternatively, you can contact Tim Hortons customer support through their official website at timhortons.com with the date and amount of the charge to request transaction details. If you paid by card at the counter, the original paper receipt would have been issued at the time of purchase.

Question 4

I don't think I visited Tim Hortons recently — could the TIM HORTONS* charge be fraudulent?

Accepted Answer

If you do not recognize the TIM HORTONS* charge on your statement, first check with any family members or authorized card users who may have made a Tim Hortons purchase in Canada. The typical amount for this charge is around $5.00, which aligns with a standard coffee or food order. If no one in your household can account for it, contact your bank or card issuer to dispute the transaction, as Tim Hortons does not offer a direct cancellation URL for in-store food purchases.
