Tackle Warehouse - Common Questions & Answers

QUESTION - My bank its showing two charges for my order

ANSWER

As with the majority of online retailers, once you have entered your payment details your bank will place an authorisation against that full order amount in your account. This will show as a pending amount on your statement but will not actually be taken by us.

We will only take money for the items that we send you and this is done when we have processed your order. Therefore, if we have had to cancel any items from your order, the money we take will be less than the amount which has been authorised by your bank and will be taken as a separate amount.

This is why in certain circumstances it appears that you have been charged twice for your order. As soon as payment was taken we would have automatically sent information to your bank to ask them to release any outstanding authorization. This process will take up to 5 days depending on your bank's procedures. For orders placed from overseas this may take longer. Please contact your bank for details.

QUESTION - Is there a limit to how many products I can buy?

ANSWER

If you are buying large quantities of one particular product or we are down to the last few units we will alert you on the basket page of the amount you are able to buy by displaying the message You have requested quantities for a product that exceeds our stock level. Please reduce the amount or remove the items and try again.  If you see this message, please reduce the quantity to continue with your purchase.

QUESTION - What is payment authentication?

ANSWER

Payment authentication or 3D secure are fraud prevention initiatives launched by card issuers. Verified by Visa (VbV) and MasterCard Secure Code (MSC) work in the same way. The authentication works by using passwords which are set up by you to protect you when you shop online.

How do I activate my card?

Many customers register their payment authentication with their card issuer. However, if you have not registered your card, you can register during the transaction. You should enter your card details and set a password in the secure window. Once you have registered your card, when you shop online in the future you will only have to enter your password.

Who do I contact for further information?

Customers should have received information about the payment authentication process from their card issuers. If you require more detailed information or encounter a problem with the authentication process, please contact your card issuer directly. Unfortunately we have no control over the payment authentication process so we will be unable to assist with any authentication enquirers.
