Claim missing shopping loyalty credits

Why use this

1. A shopper may notice missing loyalty credit but have several receipts, partial returns and uncertain programme rules to reconcile. Submitting a plausible-looking claim without checking those details can create duplicates or request an unsupported amount.

2. A claim-review packet could link each missing-credit candidate to its receipt and applicable rule. The owner could decide what to submit while keeping the distinction between a submitted claim and an accepted reward.
