 16.  What should I do if I notice that I've been charged multiple times for the same order?

We ensure that we do not charge multiple times for the same order. However, if you notice such a situation, please don't hesitate to reach out to us: support@42shops.com

There could be several reasons why you might think you've been charged multiple times:

  • Bank/Credit Card Transaction Delays: Bank or credit card statements are not always updated in real-time. Sometimes, the same transaction might temporarily appear twice, but only one charge will actually be processed. This typically resolves itself within a few business days.
  • Authorization Holds: Some online payment platforms process transactions by initially placing a hold on an amount, then debiting from that held amount. This may lead to a temporary appearance of double charges in your account, but only one charge will actually go through.
  • Misinterpretation: Sometimes, customers might misunderstand their statement, thinking they have been charged twice. If they see two similar items on their statement, they might think they have been charged twice, when in reality, one could be an authorization hold and the other the actual charge.
  • System Errors: Although quite rare, it could also be due to a system error on the merchant's end or the payment processing platform, resulting in the appearance of a double charge.

When you question possible double charges, it's best to reach out directly to your bank or credit card company for more details about the transactions. We will also conduct a search on our end via PayPal or our other payment platforms to confirm the status of your transactions.

If your issue remains unresolved, please contact our customer service with more detailed information for further investigation. Each transaction corresponds to a unique transaction number, so rest assured that we can track and resolve any issues.
