What are my Rights? Am I eligible for a Refund from Ballpark
At Ballpark, we value our users and understand that there may be situations where you might seek clarification surrounding your subscription and billing. Given Ballpark’s focus on providing streamlined payroll and HR solutions for small businesses, eligibility for refunds primarily revolves around subscription-based scenarios and the status of your account. Below are specific circumstances in which users may qualify for a refund:
Service Disruption: If you experienced significant downtime or service disruptions that hindered your ability to access essential features, this may qualify you for a refund.
Subscription Overlap: Users may inquire about eligibility for a refund in cases where subscription periods overlapped due to changes in billing cycles or plan upgrades.
Account Downgrade: If you downgraded your service plan and believe you have been billed for the previous higher tier, this situation might be reviewed for a refund eligibility.
Trial Period Issues: If you signed up for a trial period but were charged immediately instead of after the trial, this may present grounds for considering a refund.
Payment Errors: In instances where a specific payment was inadvertently processed or was different than expected due to service plan selections, users may reach out regarding their refund options.
Users are encouraged to reach out to Ballpark's support team for assistance specific to their situation, ensuring that any queries regarding refund eligibility are addressed in detail.
