Eastern Time, Monday - Friday

Credit contact information:
Email: cbgcredit@custombrandsgroup.com
Phone: 833-480-0839

• The Credit/Collection Department establishes all customer payment terms based on financial information provided on the Credit Application you submit to us.

• We currently offer the following payment/terms:
– Auto A/R - can use a credit card or checking account for payment method. Any invoice that has shipped will be combined with open credits on your account and the net amount will be charged automatically. This is the most efficient method because your orders are not reviewed for credit.

– Open Credit-Prox Terms - can use a checking account for payment method only - no credit cards. Invoices that are dated the 1st through the 15th of the month are due on or before the 10th of the following month. Invoices that are dated the 16th through the 31st of the month are due on or before the 25th of the following month. This method is also efficient as long as you do not have past due invoices.

– Prepay – can use a credit card or checking account. Once you submit an order, we charge your card or account on file and release the order. The pre-payment method takes up to 24 hours after placing the order before it is released to the plant.

eInvoicing and eStatements

All invoices are sent via email when the order ships.

For Open Credit-Prox Terms customers, the monthly A/R statement is also sent via email.

payments

• When paying an invoice, please indicate the customer account number on the check and include remittance advice to ensure that your payment is applied accordingly.

• Online billpay may be available. If you’re interested, contact the Credit Department to discuss.

repairs/remakes and cancellations

Prior to sending blinds/shades in for repair, please contact Customer Support to ensure that your repair will be properly identified and processed. The appropriate information will be taken and entered into our system and a repair number will be issued immediately.
– To prevent freight damage, pack blinds securely.
– Please write the repair number on the outside of the box for easy identification.
– If the product is not returned, the claim will be canceled.
– We will complete the repair within 48 hours of date received (depending on availability of material).

remakes and requests for credit

To process your request for remakes, please complete the online remake form here.

Remakes will be scheduled for production and shipment within 72 hours of the date the claim is approved (excluding out of stock materials or specialty blinds)

To process your request for credits, please call or fax the following information into Customer Support:

freight damaged orders

Time is of the essence for orders that are received with Freight Damage. Many carriers will not honor claims that are made later than one week after delivery. Contact Customer Support immediately so that we may issue credit to your account and file a claim with the carrier.

cancellations

Because production may begin as quickly as 4 hours after receipt of your order, if it is necessary to cancel an order, please do so immediately.

– Once production has begun, the order cannot be changed or canceled.
– Contact Customer Support, once status verification of an order has been determined and if production has not started on your order, Customer Support will cancel your order.
