Transparency in billing isn't optional at Founders 3PL; it's our standard operating procedure.

Dispute Resolution Procedure

Initial Steps for Dispute

Customers must notify Armbrust in writing of any invoice dispute within fourteen (14) days of the invoice date. Undisputed amounts remain payable per standard payment terms. Armbrust must also notify customers of any corrections or adjustments to issued invoices within fourteen (14) days of issuance. Disputes or corrections not raised within this window are deemed waived and final.

  • Notify Armbrust in writing within 14 days of the invoice date
  • Provide invoice number and detailed description of the discrepancy
  • Undisputed amounts remain payable during the review period

Resolution Timeline

Once a dispute is validated, our goal is to resolve it within 5 business days. We will adjust billing errors promptly and issue credits or refunds as necessary. Your satisfaction and trust are paramount.

Common Billing Issues and Solutions

Errors can occur, but our system is designed to minimize them. Common issues include incorrect shipping charges, miscalculated storage fees, and duplicate entries. Each is handled with precision and care.

  • Incorrect shipping charges: Verified against carrier rates
  • Storage miscalculations: Reconciled with inventory data
  • Duplicate entries: Cross-checked and corrected immediately

We guarantee 100% order accuracy. Any errors found are corrected at no cost to you.

Preventing Future Disputes

Prevention is better than correction. Regular audits, automated checks, and periodic reviews of your account help prevent disputes before they arise. Our integrated systems with platforms like Shopify and NetSuite ensure seamless data flow.

Accuracy in billing is not just a promise; it's a commitment we uphold every day.
