Shopify Digital Download Public Complaint Response Copy
Use this page to handle public complaint responses for digital download support issues without exposing customer information. The goal is to acknowledge the public message, move the issue to a safe support path, and avoid promises that the store cannot verify yet.
Customer moment
A public complaint says a download did not arrive, a file will not open, or support has not answered.
Safe boundary
Do not disclose order details, promise outcomes, or become defensive. Give a calm public response and a safe support route.
