• Proof of Purchase: Prepare a copy of your receipt or billing statement that shows the purchase of the product/service from Opal.
• Reason for Refund: Clearly articulate the reason for your refund request to provide context for the request.
• Cancellation Policies: Review Opal's specific refund and cancellation policies, so you understand what is eligible for a refund.

At Opal, we strive to provide our users with a transparent understanding of their rights regarding refunds. Our services revolve around subscription-based offerings, which means that eligibility for refunds primarily hinges on specific account management scenarios and subscription statuses. Users may inquire about refunds based on the following situations:

• Service Downtime: If users experience significant downtime or disruptions to the services they subscribe to, they may qualify for a refund for the affected period.
• Subscription Cancellations: Users who choose to cancel their subscriptions may find that they are eligible for a prorated refund for any unused portion of their billing period, depending on the timing of their cancellation.
• Promotional Offers: Users who believe they were charged incorrectly in relation to a promotional offer or discount that was not applied correctly may inquire about potential adjustments to their billing.
• Billing Discrepancies: Inquiries about unexpected charges or clarifications on billing amounts may lead to eligibility for a correction or refund, depending on the outcome of the inquiry.
• Account Suspension: If a user's account has been suspended due to issues that are not user-initiated, they could have the right to seek a refund for subscription fees related to that suspension period.

Each of these scenarios is assessed based on Opal's refund policy and the specific circumstances surrounding the user's account. We encourage users to reach out for assistance if they have any questions about their account or billing status.

At Opal, users occasionally encounter situations that lead to a refund request. Here are some realistic scenarios where customers successfully claimed refunds due to common circumstances:

• Plan Downgrade Request: A user realized that their current subscription plan had more features than they needed. After downgrading, they contacted Opal to clarify their billing cycle, and the support team promptly issued a refund for the difference in plans for the unused month.
• Temporary Service Interruption: A long-time user experienced a service outage during a high-usage period. After reporting the issue and receiving confirmation from Opal regarding the downtime, they were awarded a credit on their next billing cycle as a refund for the inconvenience.
• Accidental Subscription Renewal: A user mistakenly renewed their annual subscription instead of opting for a monthly plan. Upon realizing the mistake shortly after the renewal date, they reached out to Opal's customer service, which quickly processed a refund for the annual charge and switched them back to their preferred monthly plan without any hassle.
• Billing Clarification: A customer noticed a charge that seemed higher than expected due to a recently applied promotional discount that hadn't been reflected in their invoice. They submitted a query to Opal's support team, who clarified the situation and quickly issued a refund for the excess amount charged in error.
