  Littlewoods home shopping reversals

So far I'm on 50% of last months sales being reversed.
OK so I don't do huge amounts with them - but is this reversal pattern common?

I've had a similar number. I presume they must let people buy instantly on extended credit, then stop the order if the credit check fails.

But that'd be quicker than taking a month to reject it?

Aren't these the catalogues where people order 5 different colours then send 4 back after choosing the one they like?

If it was partial returns then they wouldn't reverse the whole transaction. Mine are all total reversals.

My correction reason is "unqualified lead" for all of these.. what on earth does that mean ?

Yup I got a Billion £ of reversals as well not a happy bunny :/ But this is a more trust worthy merchant so they must have a good excuse.

  Smile An explanation on reversals

Littlewoods make reversals for the following reasons:
- When a new customer comes to Littlewoods they go through a credit check based on previous experience with credit. A percentage of these people are declined and these transactions are reversed on a monthly basis.
- Some existing customers come through affiliate links and attempt to purchase more than they have available credit to do so in which case a reversal is made as no sales were completed.

The above take account for the majority of reversals the only others are when someone new tries to purchase more than the credit limit they are given these people generally come back and purchase again which will be captured by the cookie.


As you have probably guessed I manage the programme and would be keen to hear form anyone who would like to discuss ways of improving the programme. We already pay top rates in our category so increasing commission is difficult to do :-(

I know it must be deflating to see the reversals at the start of the month but we can only pay for completed sales.

Don't these people then get to buy it with plastic?
or does the order get turned down?
