At Neat, we strive to provide our users with seamless and satisfactory services. Understanding your rights and eligibility for refunds is essential to optimizing your experience with us. While we work diligently to ensure that all account and billing transactions are clear and satisfactory, there are specific circumstances under which refund requests may be considered.
Subscription Service Adjustments: If you’ve recently upgraded or downgraded your subscription plan and notice discrepancies in your billing amount, this situation may qualify for a credit or refund, pending our review.
Service Interruption: In the rare event that a service you paid for is significantly disrupted and not restored in a timely manner, you may be eligible for a partial refund for the affected period.
Promotional Offers: If you signed up during a promotional period and did not receive the promised benefits or discounts as expected, you might qualify for a refund based on our promotional terms.
Account Management Changes: If you believe that your billing settings were altered incorrectly during an authorized change, it could be a situation where eligibility for a refund is evaluated based on the nature of the adjustments made.
Service Not Rendered: If for any reason a service you requested could not be provided, you may be eligible for a refund for that particular transaction, subject to verification.
We encourage our users to reach out to Neat's customer support for personalized assistance regarding any potential refund eligibility based on your specific circumstances.
