follow-up copy for corrupted file report
A practical copy pattern for followup copy. Adapt it to the exact error message, current link policy, product instructions, and support page you publish.
Use case
A customer says the file is corrupted, damaged, empty, or cannot be opened after download.
Writing rule
Link to public support pages instead of private exceptions. Do not promise file recovery, replacement, or device compatibility. Explain careful checks and policy-based support.
Compliance note
This is a self-serve copy resource, not a checkout, waitlist, link-recovery guarantee, security-bypass instruction, or custom support service.
Draft copy
Customize safely
Replace the error wording with the exact customer-visible phrase, then link to the current support page or product instructions.
Useful support route
Use Delivery & Support, product status, Terms, Refund Policy, or a current FAQ page as the next step.
Do not overclaim
Do not promise restored links, unlimited downloads, bypassed warnings, file recovery, or guaranteed device behavior.
Checklist
- Does the reply name the exact error state?
