What are my Rights? Am I eligible for a Refund from Prokey
At Prokey, we aim to ensure that our users have a clear understanding of their rights and the circumstances that may qualify for a refund. Prokey offers a range of digital services, primarily focusing on subscription-based access to our software solutions. As such, the eligibility for refunds is closely tied to users' subscription status and account management activities.
Here are some situations that may qualify for a refund from Prokey:
Service Downtime: If there is an extended period of service unavailability that prevents users from accessing the subscribed features, users might be eligible for a prorated refund based on the duration of the outage.
Account Deactivation: In cases where a user has requested account deactivation and has not utilized the service during the subsequent billing cycle, a refund might apply for that specific period.
Technical Issues: If a user encounters persistent technical problems that inhibit the usability of key features, there may be room for a refund request, particularly if the issues have been documented and not resolved in a timely manner.
Billing Discrepancies: If a user identifies an inconsistency in their billing compared to the agreed subscription terms, they may want to discuss these specifics to evaluate potential refund eligibility.
Trial Period Circumstances: If users have signed up for a trial period and chosen to cancel before the trial ends, they might qualify for a waiver of any upcoming charges provided they are within the trial's terms.
We encourage users to review these situations in the context of their individual circumstances and reach out to our customer support for any inquiries regarding their eligibility for refunds.
