Credit Card Refund Policy

  • Refunds against credit card purchases are to be made to the card used for the original purchase.
  • Alternatives should only be offered after attempting to credit the original card.
  • In other words, the customer cannot choose to direct the refund to anything other than the original card except in cases where the original card is no longer valid.
  • This is for the protection of our customers and their employers.
  • In the event that the original card is no longer valid, the following options exist:
  1. a credit against an open account
  2. a gift certificate for future purchase
  3. a refund check issue to the customer
  4. We will NOT process a refund against a NEW credit card that we’ve never charged!
