Non-Disputable Scenarios

There are specific situations where disputes cannot be initiated or must be paused due to legal, compliance, or process limitations. When the entire file cannot be worked on, the sales team should be able to inform the client and refer them to alternative assistance. If a particular account cannot be disputed, the CSR team should inform the dispute team accordingly to halt any disputes on the relevant accounts.

Scenario Reason Client-Facing Guidance
Pay-for-Delete (PFD) in Progress

Disputing may interfere with the agreement and risk reversal

  • Recommend to the client that they should settle the payment first, and we will exclude it in the disputes because the expectation is it will be removed by the creditor.

IF: If client has already paid, but account still reflects on report

💡 Quick Tips: 
  • Do not attempt to bypass these scenarios through dispute submission
  • Always document the reason in the GoHighLevel notes or in "Additional Information" on DisputeFox for active clients
  • For active clients, notify the Dispute Team as needed through the Whatsapp group chat
  • Position the restriction as process and compliance-based, not refusal of service
  • Reassure the client that we can re-engage once the situation changes
