What it does

Not every billing complaint deserves a refund — many are dissatisfaction-driven ("I'm paying for downtime I had"). This workflow identifies those, applies a capped goodwill credit to the customer's Stripe balance instead of reversing a charge, and answers the customer in Front. It keeps revenue intact while still resolving the grievance.

When to use it

Use it when your policy is to offer account credit rather than cash refunds for satisfaction complaints, and you want consistent credit amounts applied without each agent improvising.

How it works

  1. 1A Front conversation classified as a service-dissatisfaction billing complaint triggers the run.
  2. 2Stripe is queried for the customer's current balance and recent invoice totals.
  3. 3Branch logic sizes the goodwill credit from your tiered policy and checks the per-customer cap.
  4. 4Stripe applies a negative customer-balance transaction as account credit.
  5. 5Front replies explaining the credit and resolves the conversation, with an internal note recording the amount.
