I submitted my second show at the 11th hour (literally) on the 15th to get the free tote bag. This morning I got a email saying my show was on hold because of a cc error. I corrected it immediately. Will this affect me getting my free tote since the show won't be processed till after the 15th?
 
As long as it was held and submitted on time, and resolved promptly, you're fine.

I feel your pain, I had the same thing happen. It seems to be more and more I am having credit cards issues and problems resolving declined payment cards. I wish there was a way to get around this, it is frustrating.

I work with two groups, military & school employees. I schedule my shows near their payday ONLY! I tell my hosts that if they hold the show near a payday, they will get better sales & it's proven to be true. If the show is the weekend before, we don't close until after the paychecks hit the bank accounts. This pay period fell on Tuesday (2PM on Wednesday for us here in Japan), so I held open the 2 shows from last weekend & submitted them at 6PM when everyone's paycheck has just hit their account. It really makes a difference! If we hold the show open over a week past payday, I start having issues. In the states, I know it's more difficult to have a group who all get paid simultaneously, but if you know it's a bunch of co-workers, try encouraging the host to hold & close the show ASAP after payday. It will help their host benefits & you'll have less headaches. ;)
 
Read the email they sent you. it has all the details.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

Will a CC Error Affect My Free Tote Bag for My Second Show on Hold?

No, a credit card (CC) error will not affect your eligibility for the free tote bag for your second show on hold. The tote bag promotion is based on the number of shows you host, not on payment processing issues.

What should I do if my second show is on hold due to a CC error?

If your second show is on hold because of a CC error, you should contact your Pampered Chef consultant support team to resolve the issue. Once the payment issue is fixed, your show can proceed, and you will still qualify for the tote bag.

Is there a deadline to resolve the CC error to still receive the tote bag?

Can I still receive my tote bag if my show is canceled due to the CC error?

If your show is canceled due to a CC error, you will not qualify for the tote bag. It is important to keep your show active and resolve any payment issues to maintain eligibility.

How can I prevent CC errors in the future?

To prevent CC errors in the future, ensure that your payment information is up to date and that you have sufficient funds available. Regularly check your account details and communicate with your consultant if you anticipate any issues.
