Granting refunds when payments are incorrectly processed by us is important, not only for the integrity of our business, but also for maintaining trust with our enrolled families. However, not all disputed payments should be processed as a refund. This guide details when it is appropriate to grant a refund and how to process them.
Refunds are ONLY necessary if a payment was withdrawn incorrectly and WE ARE AT FAULT. This would include:
When someone is accidentally charged multiple times in one month
When someone is accidentally charged for MORE than their current membership pricing (does not include franchise-wide price changes)
When someone is accidentally charged for a canceled enrollment
They MUST have given you something in writing! A Membership Cancellation Form should have been sent.
They MUST have canceled their membership a week BEFORE the first of the next month. Otherwise refunds are not permitted! However, a CD may choose to allocate their payment as credit for a future enrollment.
Before processing a refund, you MUST discuss with your District Director.
District Directors must give final approval before a refund can be processed.
