Re:Ask HN: Did offering a money-back guarantee help your bus... by bonestamp2 on Tuesday February 05, 2019 @03:04PM (#19089216)
I realize that. I'm saying they're not actually solving the problem, nor are they improving their image. In some cases, sure the customer has been wronged and a replacement should be sent. But that's only half the solution, and the less important half at that. More importantly, they have to find a way to prevent that problem from happening again so they don't alienate the much larger group of people who will never complain but will simply switch brands.

It's mostly prevention for chargebacks.

Companies hate the bad rep for chargebacks.

Most companies would rather refund your money with no questions than deal with the wrath of credit card companies.
