Refund Error Guideline:
IMPORTANT:
Never try to re-process a refund error (unless a same day refund error)
Do not refund if flagged as chargeback or with PayPal case note on Shopify
If insisting to get a refund, please advise to send an email to our escalations team at sarahrobinson.nymbus@gmail.com.
For Non-Paypal Orders:
If non-same day refund error, please ask if customer opened a dispute with the bank.
If opened dispute, please advise to contact bank to drop the dispute. Once done, they should send a confirmation from bank that the dispute was dropped to our email support before we can refund.
If no dispute / report as fraud / no active investigation by bank, please ask for paypal email for manual refund processing.
For Paypal Orders:
Always double check in Shopify if there is a note from the support team saying that there is an open case.
If there is, treat as chargeback.
If customer said they disputed with paypal but no notes;
Please advise to contact paypal to drop the dispute. Once done, they should send a confirmation from Paypal that the dispute was dropped to our email support before we can refund.
If none of both, please verify paypal email for manual refund processing.

Partial Refunds in Lieu of RMA.

Explain Mail Story

The hassles of returning the product - customer need to pay for shipping it back, then wait 2-3 weeks regarding an update from email if the product is eligible for refund.

Same-Day Cancel Exemptions:
Their in-house email team only put notations on the Shopify CRM. For same day cancel requests in email, since they offer and wait for the customer's response, they leave a note in shopify that say "PLEASE DO NOT FULFILL THIS ORDER YET" (the same process where we leave note for same day change size updates).
In the event that customer contacts us outside the 24 hours and still but we see that the fulfillment is placed on hold (referring to the email team process), we can refund.
Fulfillment Cancellation Notice:
If you refunded a fulfilled order (recently fulfilled - within a day or 2) or part of an order and there is no tracking number yet, or the tracking has not moved yet or not found --- Please forward the order number to your immediate supervisor for client documentation. They will try to stop the shipment of refunded items if possible.
