Credit Dept Holds and Scripts

If you update any order that is on a Credit Hold, input a comment as to any changes that you made on the order! The ordercould potentially go back on hold for Credit to review or hit a new hold. Inform the customer to watch their email in case additional information is needed.

All orders will be reviewed the day the order is placed unless it is towards the end of the business day (5 PM).

When booking an order if any credit hold appears on the order, advise the customer that additional information MAY be required. If additional information is needed Credit will email the customer if an email is on file.

Most Common Credit Holds

Address Verification

Either the address doesn’t match. (See full list of AVS & CVV Codes on next page)

Or the CC info (card # or Exp Date)/CVV2 (security code) don’t match what the bank has on file.

Update the order with the correct information and indicate in an Order Comment the changes you made and release the order. Delete the CC and enter a new CC payment record regardless if the error was the address or the CC. This submits the information to the bank to get a new AVS & CVV2 response.

  1. AVS Response: Get correct billing address.
  2. CVV2: Get full CC #, Exp Date & CVV2.
  • Script (Credit hasn’t contacted): It appears that we have been unable to get an authorization on your credit card. Can you please verify your (billing address or CC #) to ensure we have the correct information?
  • Script (Credit has already contacted):We sent an email on XX/XX and it appears that we have been unable to get an authorization on your credit card. Can you please verify your (billing address or CC #) to ensure we have the correct information?

Address Review

This typically applies when a customer’s billing info is different than the shipping. If the order is already on hold, advise the customer additional information could be required. The customer has the option to change the order to ship to the billing address which you can change as long as there are no issues with the CC (see above examples). If there are issues with the CC, delete the payment record and add a new CC payment record. If any changes are made add an Order Comment with the changes you made. Update and release the order.

  • Script (Credit hasn’t contacted): I see that you are shipping to a location different than your billing address. We may require additional information to process your order. If we do need additional information we will contact you via email.
  • Script (Credit has already contacted):We will need XX (refer to email in Order Comments) in order to process your order. Another option would be to ship the item to your billing address.

Fraud – Redline

This order either contains an item that tends to cause fraudulent orders, customer’s name or address has been used in fraudulent orders prior or the location for billing or shipping is a high risk location. These orders need to be reviewed by Credit.

  • Script (Credit hasn’t contacted):None. Credit will review and determine the course of action for the order.
  • Script (Credit has already contacted): We will need XX (refer to email in Order Comments) in order to process your order.
