Before you delegate it

Use an order confirmation and business contact to pursue a return or replacement and obtain the next required return step.

  • order or refund reference
  • contact authority

Safer workflow

  1. Specify the result you want and any conditions the agent must not change.
  2. Ask Instinct to research or prepare first, then pause before a payment, cancellation, or other consequential action.
  3. Before approving, check the amount, recipient, dates, policy, and sensitive details.
  4. Afterward, confirm the result in the original service or account.

How to verify completion

A confirmed return path, replacement option, or return label with the merchant's deadline and refund terms.

For payments, bookings, accounts, and messages, use the provider's record rather than the agent's completion message as the final confirmation.

Suggested request

Use this order confirmation to ask for a return. Do not accept store credit or a replacement unless I approve it. Bring back the return label, deadline, and refund terms.

Expected outcome

A confirmed return path, replacement option, or return label with the merchant's deadline and refund terms.

Known limitations

  • Merchant policies control eligibility.
