What are my Rights? Am I eligible for a Refund from Ridge
At Ridge, we prioritize customer satisfaction and aim to provide clarity around refund eligibility for our users. Understanding your rights regarding potential refunds can help manage your expectations and make the most of our services. Below are specific circumstances related to our delivery services that may qualify for a refund.
Service Cancellation Prior to Scheduled Delivery: If you decide to cancel a delivery request before the scheduled time, you may be eligible for a full refund of the service fee.
Delivery Failures: In cases where a scheduled delivery could not be completed due to factors outside your control (e.g., extreme weather or unforeseen circumstances), you may qualify for a refund of the service charge.
Incorrect Service Execution: Should the service provided not align with the order specifics you confirmed (for instance, incorrect delivery location or time), you may be eligible for a partial or full refund based on the situation.
Service Interruption: If a disruption occurs that prevents a delivery from being completed as agreed upon, you might be eligible for a refund depending on the duration and nature of the interruption.
Subscription Service Overlap: For users with a subscription plan, if there’s a billing overlap for a subscription renewal that affects your service access, you may qualify for an adjustment or refund based on your service usage.
We encourage users to reach out to our support team for any inquiries regarding potential refunds related to their specific circumstances. Our goal is to assist you in navigating your options effectively.
