How to manage shipping refunds?
Written by Brendan Hite
This is no lottery scheme; this is your own money. Doesn’t it bother you when you pay your shipping company for expedited shipping and they fail to deliver it on time? Now, as per their money back guarantee for expedited shipments, you should receive refund;but is there is a catch? In order for you to receive the refund you need to file a case to claims within 15 days. Many organizations do not receive refund because they do not claim it. Professional services offer complete assistance for getting UPS guaranteed service refund from UPS and other major service providers like Fedex.
Things work this way:
- Authorize – you need to authorize your agency to handle shipping account for tracking of consignments on your behalf. They will monitor and track each consignment, identify UPS late delivery, prepare, and file eligible claim with the shipping company. They will follow up with company until you receive refund in your account maintained with the shipping company.
- Advantages – This is a hassle free service for you. You need not make changes in your routine to set up tracking system and claim Fedex refund. Everything will be taken care by the appointed agency.
- Fees and Charges – Actually, there is none until you get refund in your account. Usually these agencies will offer their services without initial charges and will ask for commission once you get refund from shipping company.
- Customized Solutions – You need not worry about detailing and accuracy of transactions. You can get comprehensive report covering each detail of consignment and refund received. Even these agencies can develop customized reports suitable for your requirement.
As we do not consider volumes involved, refund industry in United States is close to $2 billion every year. These are 5% to 10% of cases that deserve refunds due to delayed shipments. The entire magnitude is too large to imagine and for you to grab what you deserve. Usually on corporate levels, these refunds are not monitored and lapse due to no claims. Hiring agencieshave various advantages; for example, easier navigational control on consignments with accurate tracking, effective revenue enhancements with timely claims of refunds and in turn, increased productivity. You will realize that your freight expenses were never managed better before you hired freight management agency. Receiving unclaimed refunds might change your definition of tracking and monitoring things in a realistic way. Additional resources earned through these means might turn huge in long term.
