- The
most common problem is that
many people have DIFFERENT HOME/SHIPPING
addresses from their BILLING address and either
forget, or do not think it matters. IT DOES!!!
For your protection, we use something called
AVS (Address Verification Service) which
verifies that the BILLING information you
provide is the same as your credit card
provider has on file. MANY PEOPLE forget that
their billing address (the address that their
credit card bill actually gets sent to) is
different. If someone has moved in the last
couple of years OR gets their mail forwarded to
them, this is probably the culprit. AVS
(Address Verification Service) will NOT allow
the transaction to go through unless the
Billing address AND zip code match. If you do
not know what address your credit card company
has on file, call them and ask (the phone
number is most likely on the back of your
credit card).
- Please Note: If you make
several attempts at placing an order with the
improper Billing Address information, this
could trigger your credit card company's fraud
control. At the very least they will
temporarily deduct the attempted transaction
amount from your available credit, and possibly
even turn your card off.
- The SECOND most common problem
is entering an inappropriate SHIPPING
METHOD

Most problems with international ordering
attempts stem from the customer not choosing
the correct UPS SHIPPING METHOD. Make sure that
either Worldwide Express or Worldwide
Expedited are chosen (the difference is
that worldwide express is quicker and more
expensive)
ALSO make sure the correct country is
chosen, otherwise the zip code will be
rejected.

If after filling
in your correct information such as shipping
and billing address if you receive an error
code instead of a confirmation that the
transaction was approved, check three things
first: That your zip code is correct, that your
shipping method is appropriate for your
shipping address, and that you have chosen the
appropriate country.
The Error codes
"only accepts five digit zip code" or
"invalid shipping method" are usually
generated because the customer lives OUTSIDE of
the US and has chosen the incorrect shipping.
Make sure to enter the correct country and
appropriate shipping method
"Invalid
e-mail address"
Usually a result of the customer giving a false
or incomplete e-mail address: NOTE: e-mail
address is important because the customer will
receive an e-mail confirmation of order,
receipt, as well as the UPS tracking number.
Without the correct e-mail address, the
customer will not be able to track the package
because customer will not receive the receipt
with the invoice number.

This obviously depends on the shipping
method chosen; all packages are sent UPS and for
an exact time-in transit, customer can go to
www.UPS.com.

I ordered "Next Day Air" but it took
longer, why?
All orders received after 3 a.m. go out the
following weekday morning. If you ordered a
product at 3:01 a.m. later on Thursday morning
for example, your package will be sent out on
FRIDAY morning, which means you will receive
your Next Day Air Shipment on Monday.
Please note: We cannot be held responsible for
delays caused by UPS which are outside of our
control. We will make every effort to remedy
situations in which UPS was delayed in
delivering a package, but we cannot obviously
guarantee a third party's services. We have
found UPS to be the most reliable shipping
company, however no company is 100% perfect. If
the delivery delay was due to a problem with
DAK Pharmaceuticals, we will make every effort
to reasonably remedy the situation.

Questions
The credit card statement will only say DAK
pharmaceutical, LLC or other equivalent
company, if someone inquires what exactly was
purchased, they will only say "cosmetics" or
"nutritional supplements". It should in no way
disclose the specific nature of the
product

Questions
Almost with 100% certainty you were not,
but people sometimes think they were charged
more than once. More than likely, you probably
were not. Did you make one or more FAILED
attempts at processing an order? Every time you
attempt to process an order, even if it fails,
(because you put the wrong corresponding zip
code or shipping method etc.), the credit card
company "authorizes" your credit card for the
full amount. This is not a charge, only a
reduction of the available credit. Depending on
your specific credit card, the authorization
should disappear automatically within 3-30
days. If you have any specific questions
regarding these authorizations and when they
will disappear, please call your credit card
company. Rest assured, you were only CHARGED
for the transaction that was fully
processed.

If you take the tracking # (sent to
you by e-mail when the package was processed)
and enter it on the tracking page at www.dakpharmaceuticals.com/ups_track.htm
or www.UPS.com, you will
be able to see where it is in transit and when
the expected delivery date is. In some cases,
you may also need to input the shipping zip
code as well. If you have any questions or
problems with tracking your package, please
fill out our
customer service form.
Please note, it usually takes one (1)
full business day from your purchase before the
tracking number is available in the UPS
system.

No, in order to keep prices low and
maintain efficiency we only process orders
electronically. Our processing server is 100%
secure and encrypted, and your information is
guaranteed safe. By today's standards it is
very difficult for an unauthorized person to
see any of your information. If we had to
process orders manually we would have to raise
our prices, and we want to keep the products
affordable to everyone. If you still feel
uncomfortable because you are unfamiliar with
online purchases, you may call the Order
Hotline at 1-866-475-4424 and an operator will
take your order over the telephone.

Instructions for returning a
product:
In order to receive a refund, the product must be returned in the original box,
and should be placed in a larger box or padded envelope to insure against damage
(use the one we sent to you originally!). Products made of glass should be
repackaged with care to insure against breakage. For our employees' safety, any
box that contains broken glass will be discarded and a refund will not be
processed (we cannot instruct our employees to pull out broken glass pieces
from boxes for obvious reasons).
In the box with the product please insert a copy of your return receipt.
In order to get a receipt go to the customer service center
here. In order to

We suggest that you mail it to us
return receipt requested and insured, however
we will accept any type of delivery service
such as Federal Express or UPS etc. Although
returns are processed immediately as received,
sometimes it takes a while for your credit card
company or bank to credit your account. Please
allow 2-4 weeks for the credit to show up on
your next statement.
