Dealing with Return Requests
Distance Selling Regulations (DSR) says that it's mandatory for business sellers to provide a minimum 14-day returns policy. However, certain marketplaces may require longer return periods, extending up to 30 days. This means customers have the right to return an order at their own expense regardless of the reason.
Is your customer return a complaint, or simply a change or mind?
In certain instances, when your customer initiates a return, it may be classified as a complaint. If this is the case, it is important to adhere to our guidelines for handling customer complaints. By following our recommended procedures for addressing customer concerns, you can effectively address and resolve any issues that arise from returns.
