• We cannot refund an agency order. The name cannot be changed to another person. 

• If the customer is adamant about changing the name, offer to add C/O  to address line 1 with the new name and the address to line 2. Keep the original name on the name line. If the name change is a slight change or misspelling change that is okay. We can also change the name if it is due to marriage. 

• We cannot change the term and value of the order.

• If the agency is calling on behalf of the customer refer them to agency control, phone numbers are listed on AskCDS by publisher.
