16. Customer Grievance Redressal Policy

Background

Customer satisfaction is one of the key focus areas and an integral part of Worthy Cart’s founding principles and business policies. We strongly believe that customer satisfaction is the most important factor in the growth and development of our business and hence, at Worthy Cart we have adopted customer centricity as a priority in developing our business processes. This Customer Grievance Redressal Policy summarizes and outlines the framework for addressing customer grievances.

Objective

The objective of this Grievance Policy is to provide a framework to ensure the provision of timely and effective resolution of issues raised by customers and to keep customers informed about the manner in which they can reach out to us to resolve their queries and grievances.

Principles Governing the Grievance Policy:

  • Customers shall be treated fairly at all times.
  • Issues raised by customers are always attended with courtesy and in time.
  • Customers are provided with effective and satisfactory resolution within a reasonable time period.
  • Customers are fully informed of avenues to escalate their issues/grievances if they are not fully satisfied with the response to their complaints.

Customer Support:

Any customer can reach out to our Customer Support team/representative through telephonic or electronic mode in the following manner:

  • Email customer service at support@worthycart.com

Need to Know:

  • Confidential Details: Worthy Cart DOES NOT solicit confidential details like your OTP/CVV/PIN/Card Number/Bank account details through any means. Worthy Cart never calls users/customers with offers, discounts on products, and offering free gifts.
  • Scamsters/Fraudsters: Scamsters/fraudsters attempt various techniques such as ‘phishing’ to contact, influence, and defraud consumers. Worthy Cart regularly cautions its customers against sharing any personal or payment-sensitive information with unknown persons as such sharing leads to unauthorized use and/or fraud and consequent financial loss.
  • Liability Disclaimer: Worthy Cart shall not be liable for any loss, damage, or expense incurred by a customer where the customer has shared personal and/or payment-sensitive information with scamsters/fraudsters.
  • Reporting: We request and encourage our customers to report such attempts or incidents to our Grievance Officer (or Customer Care) to enable us to investigate and explore legal recourse.
  • Email Communication: Worthy Cart reserves the right to divert emails sent to grievanceofficer@worthycart.com to support@worthycart.com if customers have directly contacted the grievance officer without following the Grievance Redressal communication procedure mentioned above.
  • Payment Partners: Worthy Cart relies on payment partners and banks. In certain cases involving payment/refund issues, delays may occur once we pass the investigation to them. However, we endeavor not to exceed timelines stated in this policy.
