What are my Rights? Am I eligible for a Refund from telMAX
At telMAX, we strive to provide a seamless experience for our users. Understanding the circumstances under which you might be eligible for a refund is crucial to managing your account effectively. Refund eligibility can depend on various factors related directly to your service usage, subscription status, and account management.
Subscription Services: If you have subscribed to our monthly or annual plans, you may qualify for a refund if you cancel your subscription within the designated trial period and have not used any of the premium features.
Service Non-Availability: In the unlikely event that you experience persistent service outages that are not resolved within a specified timeframe, you might be eligible for a refund for that billing cycle.
Account Upgrade Issues: If you have upgraded your account and the new subscription level does not activate properly, you could qualify for a refund if support is unable to resolve the issue within a specific period.
Billing Discrepancies: Should you notice a difference in the expected billing amount due to a promotional offer or a pricing adjustment communicated by telMAX, you may be eligible for a refund for the difference, provided the discrepancy is brought to our attention within a specific timeframe.
Account Management Challenges: If you encounter challenges while managing your account settings that affect your subscription or billing, you could apply for a refund if the issue cannot be resolved within a reasonable time frame.
Please note that all refund requests are subject to review in accordance with our service policies. For detailed inquiries or to initiate a refund request, we encourage you to reach out to our customer support team.
