sending back

Mailing a return

Sending back is returning something to where it came from or to a previous owner.

You send back a defective product for a refund, send back a dish that's undercooked, or send back a letter marked "return to sender." I'm sending back the dress—it doesn't fit.

The phrase implies rejection or correction of something received.
