What are my Rights? Am I eligible for a Refund from Surepay
At Surepay, we strive to provide our users with a seamless experience while managing their subscriptions and transactions. Understanding your rights regarding refunds is essential for effective account management. Refund eligibility may depend on various factors pertaining to your subscription status or the specific services utilized. Here are some common scenarios in which users might be eligible for a refund:
Service Cancellation During a Billing Cycle: If you have canceled your subscription before the end of the current billing cycle, you may qualify for a prorated refund for any unused service time.
Service Downtime: In instances where the service was unavailable for an extended period due to maintenance or technical issues, users could be eligible for a refund reflecting the duration of the downtime.
Billing Errors: Users might be eligible for a refund if a subscription was billed at an incorrect rate or if the terms of service were not applied correctly in billing.
Service Misalignment: If a user finds that the features or services provided do not align with what was initially agreed upon, they may qualify for a refund based on the discrepancy.
Trial Period Cancellation: If you signed up during a trial period and canceled accordingly, you might be eligible for a refund if billing occurred inadvertently after the trial expiration.
It is important to review your account settings and billing details for a comprehensive understanding of your eligibility for refunds based on these factors. For more specific inquiries, please refer to Surepay’s customer support for assistance tailored to your situation.
