Refunds

Refunds refer to the process of returning money to a customer who has returned a product or canceled a service. This action typically occurs when a purchase does not meet the customer's expectations or if the product is defective or not as described. Refunds can also occur for services that were not delivered as promised. The amount refunded is usually the total cost of the item or service, but may exclude shipping charges depending on the retailer's policy. Refunds are an essential aspect of customer service and consumer rights, allowing customers to seek redress for unsatisfactory purchases. The process and terms for obtaining a refund can vary between businesses, often defined by their return policy, which outlines conditions such as the time frame for returns, the state of the item (new, used, damaged), and necessary documentation like receipts.
