Eligibility for refunds is assessed based on specific conditions that pertain to the nature of our services. Notch offers digital tools and resources focused on enhancing user experiences; therefore, it's important to consider how your interactions with our platform may influence your eligibility for a refund.
Subscription Overlap: If you are using a subscription service and believe that you may have unintentionally engaged in overlapping subscription periods, a review of your billing cycle may be warranted to determine whether adjustments could be made.
Service Disruption: In the event of a significant interruption in service that affects the usability of the platform, you might be eligible for a refund or credit for the affected billing period.
Unmet Service Expectations: If the services received do not align with what was advertised or expected upon subscribing, you may inquire about potential compensatory measures.
Account Setup Issues: If you encountered difficulties during the initial setup that prevented full access to the services for a substantial period, this may support a request for a review of your billing.
Trial Period Concerns: Users who engage in trial periods and find that the product does not meet their needs can inquire about their options before being charged for the subsequent subscription period.
Each situation is evaluated on a case-by-case basis, and we encourage you to reach out to our support team for assistance tailored to your specific circumstances. Understanding your rights ensures a smoother experience while using Notch services.
