Refund Policy

At Via 313, we are committed to providing our customers with the highest quality food and dining experience. We understand that sometimes things do not go as expected, and we want to ensure that every customer feels heard, valued, and treated fairly. This Refund Policy outlines your rights and our obligations regarding refunds, cancellations, exchanges, and dispute resolution. Please read this policy carefully before placing an order.

By placing an order through our website pizza-via313.world, by phone, or in person at any of our locations, you agree to the terms set forth in this Refund Policy. This policy is governed by applicable United States federal and state consumer protection laws, including the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Act, which prohibits unfair or deceptive acts or practices in commerce.

1. Our Commitment to Quality

Via 313 takes great pride in preparing every order with fresh ingredients and consistent care. Our team strives to meet — and exceed — the expectations of every guest. However, we recognize that errors can occur, and when they do, we are dedicated to making things right promptly and professionally.

If you are dissatisfied with your order for any reason covered under this policy, we encourage you to reach out to us as soon as possible so we can resolve your concern in a timely manner.

2. Eligibility Conditions for Refunds

Refunds at Via 313 may be issued under the following circumstances:

• Incorrect Order: You received an item that is different from what you ordered (e.g., wrong pizza toppings, incorrect size, or missing items).
• Food Quality Issues: The food was undercooked, overcooked, or otherwise did not meet reasonable quality standards at the time of delivery or pickup.
• Allergic Reactions or Ingredient Errors: You specified an allergy or dietary restriction at the time of ordering and the food did not comply with those instructions.
• Missing Items: One or more items from your order were not included in your delivery or pickup bag.
• Order Not Delivered: Your order was confirmed but never arrived, and a reasonable amount of time has passed beyond the estimated delivery window.
• Duplicate Charges: Your payment method was charged more than once for the same order.

Refunds will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Via 313 reserves the right to deny refund requests that do not meet the eligibility conditions outlined above or that appear to be made in bad faith or as part of a pattern of abuse.

3. Timeframes for Refund Requests

To be eligible for a refund, you must contact us within the following timeframes:

Requests submitted after these timeframes may not be eligible for a refund. We strongly encourage customers to inspect their orders upon receipt and report any issues immediately.

4. Non-Refundable Items and Situations

The following items and circumstances are generally not eligible for a refund:

• Orders that have been fully consumed or largely eaten before a complaint is made.
• Change of mind after an order has been prepared and dispatched or picked up.
• Requests that fall outside the applicable reporting windows described in Section 3.
• Dissatisfaction based solely on personal taste preferences that were not communicated at the time of ordering (e.g., requesting extra spice after the fact).
• Promotional, discounted, or complimentary items provided as part of a special offer.
• Delivery fees charged by third-party delivery platforms (e.g., DoorDash, Uber Eats, Grubhub). These fees are governed by the respective platform's policies.
• Orders placed through third-party delivery platforms where the complaint falls outside of Via 313's direct control (e.g., delivery delays caused by the platform).
• Catering deposits once food preparation has begun (see Cancellation Policy, Section 7).

5. How to Request a Refund — Step-by-Step

If you believe you are eligible for a refund, please follow these steps to initiate your request:

1. Step 1: Gather Your Order Details
   Before contacting us, please have the following information ready:
   • Your full name
   • Order number or confirmation number
   • Date and time of your order
   • Description of the issue
   • Photos of the food or packaging (if applicable and available)
2. Step 2: Contact Via 313
   Reach out to our customer support team using one of the following methods:
   • Email: [email protected]
   • Website: pizza-via313.world
   When emailing, use the subject line: "Refund Request – [Your Order Number]"
3. Step 3: Provide Supporting Documentation
   If possible, attach photos clearly showing the issue with your order (e.g., incorrect toppings, missing items, food quality concerns). This helps us process your request more efficiently.
4. Step 4: Await Confirmation
   Our team will acknowledge receipt of your refund request within 1–2 business days. We may follow up with additional questions to better understand and resolve your concern.
5. Step 5: Resolution
   Once your request has been reviewed and approved, we will notify you of our decision and the applicable resolution (refund, credit, or replacement). Refunds are issued as described in Section 6 below.

6. Refund Processing Times by Payment Method

Once a refund has been approved, the time it takes to receive the funds depends on your original payment method:

Please note that processing times are estimates and may vary depending on your financial institution. Via 313 is not responsible for delays caused by banks or payment processors once a refund has been initiated from our end.

In some cases, we may offer store credit or a complimentary future order as an alternative to a monetary refund, particularly for minor issues. This will always be offered with your consent and will never replace a legitimate monetary refund without your agreement.

7. Partial Refunds

In certain situations, a partial refund may be more appropriate than a full refund. Partial refunds may be issued under the following conditions:

• Only some items in your order were incorrect or missing, while the rest were satisfactory.
• A portion of the food was consumed before the issue was identified, and the remaining portion was found to be unsatisfactory.
• The order was partially correct but contained a minor deviation from the request that did not affect the majority of the meal.
• A discount or promotional offer was applied to the original order, and a prorated refund is calculated based on the amount actually paid.

The amount of a partial refund will be calculated fairly and transparently. We will explain the basis of the partial refund to the customer before processing it.

8. Exchange Policy

Given the perishable nature of food, traditional exchanges (i.e., returning one item and receiving another) are generally not available for food products. However, Via 313 offers the following alternatives:

• Replacement Order: If your order was incorrect or unsatisfactory due to our error, we will prepare and send (or hold for pickup) a replacement at no additional charge, subject to confirmation of the issue.
• Item Substitution Credit: If you received an incorrect menu item and do not wish to wait for a replacement, we will issue store credit equivalent to the value of the incorrect item, redeemable on your next visit or order.
• Complimentary Add-On: For minor errors or inconveniences that do not warrant a full refund or replacement, we may offer a complimentary item (such as a side dish or beverage) with your next order as a goodwill gesture.

All exchanges and replacements are subject to availability and must be requested within the timeframes outlined in Section 3.

9. Cancellation Policy

9.1 Standard Orders

For standard dine-in, takeout, and delivery orders:

• Orders may be cancelled within 5 minutes of being placed, provided that food preparation has not yet begun.
• Once food preparation has started, cancellations are generally not accepted, and no refund will be issued.
• To cancel an order, contact us immediately by phone or email with your order number.

9.2 Catering and Large Group Orders

For catering orders and large group reservations:

• Cancellations made more than 72 hours before the scheduled event will receive a full refund of any deposit paid.
• Cancellations made between 24 and 72 hours before the scheduled event will receive a 50% refund of the deposit.
• Cancellations made less than 24 hours before the scheduled event are non-refundable.
• If Via 313 must cancel a catering order due to unforeseen circumstances, a full refund of all amounts paid will be provided.

9.3 Online Pre-Orders

Pre-orders placed through pizza-via313.world may be cancelled up to 1 hour before the scheduled pickup or delivery time, provided the order has not yet entered preparation. Cancellation requests must be submitted via email to [email protected] or by contacting the specific location directly.

10. Third-Party Delivery Platform Orders

If you placed your order through a third-party platform such as DoorDash, Uber Eats, Grubhub, or another delivery service, please note the following:

• Refund requests for orders placed through third-party platforms should be directed to the platform's customer support team, as payment is processed through them.
• Via 313 will cooperate with third-party platforms to resolve disputes related to food quality or incorrect orders that originate from our kitchen.
• Delivery delays, driver issues, and platform-related errors are outside of Via 313's direct control and must be resolved with the respective platform.
• We encourage customers to also contact us at [email protected] to report quality concerns directly, even if you are also pursuing a refund through the platform.

11. Dispute Resolution Process

If you are not satisfied with the outcome of your refund request, or if you feel your concern has not been adequately addressed, you may escalate the matter through the following process:

1. Step 1: Internal Escalation
   Contact us again at [email protected] and request that your case be escalated to a senior manager. Please include all prior correspondence and any relevant documentation.
2. Step 2: Good Faith Negotiation
   Both parties agree to engage in good faith negotiations to attempt to resolve the dispute within 14 calendar days of the escalation request.
3. Step 3: Mediation
   If the dispute cannot be resolved through internal escalation, either party may propose mediation by a neutral third party. Mediation costs will be shared equally unless otherwise agreed.
4. Step 4: Consumer Protection Agencies
   Customers in the United States have the right to file complaints with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) at ftc.gov/complaint or with their applicable state consumer protection office. We encourage customers to utilize these resources if they feel their rights have been violated.
5. Step 5: Chargeback (Last Resort)
   If all other resolution methods have been exhausted, you may contact your bank or credit card issuer to dispute the charge. We ask that customers attempt to resolve concerns with us directly before initiating a chargeback, as we are committed to fair resolution.

Via 313 reserves the right to update or modify this Refund Policy at any time. Changes will be effective immediately upon posting to our website at pizza-via313.world. We encourage customers to review this policy periodically. Your continued use of our services after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
