QA Zone: First Call Resolution
Did the agent adhere to all company policies, including accurately capturing customer details, carefully handling payments, and fully complying with all relevant requirements while maintaining professionalism?
Agent did not provide FCR on the call
FCR is crucial as it directly impacts customer satisfaction and operational efficiency by resolving issues on the first contact. To ensure the FCR, we have made changes in the scorecard, and from 27th July, 2025, there is an automatic failure in the process adherence question if an agent fails to provide FCR.
THINK OF ALL THE POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE WITHIN THE CALL WITHOUT LETTING THE CUSTOMER CALL AGAIN FOR THE SAME CONCERN. NEVER PROACTIVELY ADVISE THE CUSTOMER TO CALLBACK.

Dropship Returns
All dropship items must be returned to ShopLC, except mattresses.
All mattress return requests (current and future) must be sent to the Drop Ship team.
Mattresses follow a Return-to-Vendor (RTV) process.
The vendor must provide a return label for customers to return the item directly to them.
This applies only to unopened mattress boxes.
Also, any orders for which the customer has not received an RTL, agents need to continue following the existing process. The agents need to send an email to the dropship team.
Return Label Request via Email through Sales Force Format
When customer requesting a return label to their email, kindly follow the format below.
Subject: Return label request for Order no. 0000000

What You Need to Know:
We ship with DHL eCommerce
But USPS delivers the final package to customers.
How to Explain to Customers:
“We use DHL to ship your order, and USPS completes the final delivery to your address.”
Why This Matters:
Some customers get confused when USPS shows up instead of DHL.
We’ve received feedback about this—so let’s be proactive and clarify it before confusion arises.

Failed Authorization Cancellations – Reminder for All
Hi Team,
If a payment doesn’t go through when placing an order—like a declined card or any other issue—please make sure to cancel both the bid and the order right away. This frees up the reserved product so it can be sold to other customers.
This step is required every time.
Thanks!

Price Match & Discount Policy Update
Customers may choose either a discount code or a price match, not both.
If a discount was applied to a higher TSP (Today’s Special Price) and the price drops within 30 days, we’ll match the lower TSP—but the original discount won’t apply to the new price.
No price adjustments on items that later go on:
• Clearance
• Sale
• Special Promotions
This includes:
• Items marked down further on clearance
• Items moved from regular price to clearance
(Final sale items are not eligible)
🕒 Eligible Timeframe: 30 Days
💸 Reference Price: TSP
🚫 Exceptions: Shipping & Taxes
Agent Script
“At Shop LC, we can apply either a discount code used at purchase or a price match—whichever works better for you, but not both. If the price has dropped, we’ll match the lower TSP, but we can’t reapply the original discount. I’m happy to assist with the best option!”

A quick heads-up on how we should communicate pre-orders to customers:
✅ DO
Please note or we would like to inform you, this is a pre- order and the estimated shipping time is up to 15 business days. Once your order has been dispatched, you will receive a confirmation email or text along with the tracking information, allowing you to track the progress of your shipment.
Inform customers using clear, proactive language like:
“This is a pre-order with an estimated shipping time of up to 15 business days. You’ll receive tracking information once the order is dispatched.”
🚫 DON’T
Do not inform Proactively and refrain from using the below statements
The delay in shipment is due to the order being a pre-order item It is an order placed for an item that has not yet been released. These orders are processed by our warehouse team based on item availability and may take up to 15 business days to ship.
Avoid vague or reactive messages like:
“The delay is due to it being a pre-order item...” or over-explaining fulfillment logic.
Let’s keep messaging simple, confident, and reassuring. This helps manage expectations and enhances the customer experience.
