What are my Rights? Am I eligible for a Refund from n8n
At n8n, we offer a powerful workflow automation tool designed to help users seamlessly integrate and automate their tasks across various platforms. While we strive to provide a top-notch user experience, we understand that questions may arise about billing and refunds. Below are specific circumstances that may qualify users for a refund:
Subscription Downgrades: If you’ve downgraded your subscription plan and believe you’ve been charged for a higher tier, this situation might be eligible for a pro-rata refund for the unused portion of the billing cycle.
Service Interruptions: During any significant service outages or interruptions, users who have experienced considerable loss of functionality may qualify for a refund for the affected service period.
Product Feature Changes: If a significant feature that was advertised as included in your current subscription plan is removed, you might be eligible for a review of your billing status and potential adjustments.
Billing Errors: In the event of a confirmed discrepancy in your billing related to your subscription plan, you could qualify for a refund or adjustment based on that determination.
Annual Plan Refunds: Users who purchase an annual plan and decide to discontinue service may be eligible for a refund based on the remaining time left in the billing cycle, provided the request is made within the stipulated timeframe.
For any billing inquiries or requests for refunds, users are encouraged to reach out to our support team for personalized assistance based on their specific account situation.
