HOW TO SHOP AT JOY JEWELERS
To order from the Joy Jewelers' Online Store, all you have to do is browse the products and decide which items you would like to purchase. The web site keeps track of which items you have selected in your shopping basket, adds up the total when you are finished, and processes your order securely and quickly.

After submitting your order, you will receive a confirmation via email (if you gave us a valid email address). Please keep the receipt and print it for your records. When contacting us regarding the status of your order, please include the order number (located on your receipt) in any correspondence. This will help us assist you effectively and efficiently.

PROBLEMS AT CHECKOUT
Billing Information Errors:
Here are some helpful suggestions if you receive one of the following error messages when you check out:

Error Message 1
"The CSC/CVN (Card Security Code/Card Verification Number) Code you have provided does not match the code on your credit card."

If you receive this error, please ensure there are no typos or spaces in the code. This is required for fraud prevention and for your protection.

Error Message 2
"The billing address zip code you provided does not match the zip code on your credit card account."

If you receive this message after you have attempted to submit your order, you may want to check the following:
  1. Ensure that there are no typos or misspellings with your name, street address, city, state, and zip code.
  2. Verify that your billing address on your credit card bill is EXACTLY the same as you have entered.
  3. Call your issuing bank to ensure that your bank has recently updated their online transaction database. In some cases, the address they have entered into their online address verification system is outdated.
  4. You may want to try an old address, because in some cases, it takes awhile for banks to update their information. Addresses up to two years old can be authorized successfully.

** Please be aware that with each submission, you may place another hold on your funds for the total amount of the order. In many cases, submission with a valid credit card number with an incorrect billing address will still result in a hold on your account. If this occurs, please note that those authorizations will drop off your account within 2 - 4 business days depending on your issuing bank. Please contact your bank for further questions.

Error Message 3
"There was a problem connecting to the credit card authorization service. Please try back at another time."

On rare occasions, the issuing bank verification system or our partner online verification system is down. At these times, no authorizations or transactions can be processed. Please note that these outages can last for a few minutes to an hour. No authorizations or holds on your funds will be processed and nothing will be charged to your card. We recommend that you attempt to place your order again in an hour or contact our JoyJewelers.com Customer Service department at 1-877-JOY-JWLR [1-877-569-5957].
