If i give you a cheque and you offer me the goods/service rendered, but before I cash the cheque, you instruct your bank to block the transaction, what happens?

Members,

I made a payment his weekend using Mpesa to the wrong number. I tried to call the number and no one picked and it was a substantial amount of money. Fortunately I got some advice from someone to call number 234 and sure enough the transaction was reversed after I made the call.

I was wondering how Mpesa will handle or handles some of the payment reversals especially in cases where I would buy and pay something using Mpesa and then after receiving the goods I just reverse the transaction and therefore get goods for free. Probably there is something else I do not know about this transaction reversal thing, but I have a feeling it might  bring some problems in the future. Someone who knows about how it operates please shed some light on it please.

regards,
G. Kagwe
