I had a customer just call me very irrate saying that none of her guest can placer orders on my website. She said one person got all the way to check out and before she could enter her CC the order disappeared and said that it is complete. Now she want me to find the order. I am on hold with the tech guys now, but anybody else experiencing problems with their website?
 
I had a customer last week who got all the way through and then it would not take her CC. Thankfully she called her order in instead but I havn't had anyone else call me.
 
I just had a host tell me one of her guests was trying to get to the online catalog and couldn't. All it would take her to was a screen for booking a party so I told her to email me the order.. but her guest can't even view the catalog online... ugh...
 
I'm a little ticked myself...every outside order from one of my shows on my PWS has had trouble. I've had 6 people call trying to order from a show and it won't work. I've run out of excuses!
To make matters worse, it is a Lia Sophia Lady who was entertaining the idea of signing...now she isn't b/c all of her friends had so much trouble! :grumpy: The "ease of the website" I talked about totally backfired! I'm very frustrated...can you tell?:mad:
 
Hi there! I'm sorry to hear that your customer is having trouble placing orders on your website. I can understand how frustrating that must be for both you and your customer. I haven't personally experienced any issues with my website, but I'm glad you're reaching out to the tech team for assistance. They should be able to help you locate the missing order and resolve any issues with the checkout process. In the meantime, you may want to suggest that your customer try clearing their browser's cache and cookies, as that can sometimes help with technical difficulties. I hope everything gets sorted out quickly for you and your customer. Best of luck!
