Is CASUAL SUBSCRIPTION fraud?

• Subscription Fees: Users might be charged for a recurring subscription plan that was unintentionally activated or not canceled in time.
• In-App Purchases: Charges can occur for buying extras or premium features within the app without realizing it.
• Trial Conversions: Some users reported being automatically converted to a paid plan after a free trial ended, leading to unexpected charges.
• Multiple Accounts: Users with multiple accounts may forget about purchases made on a different account, resulting in charges they don’t recognize.
• Family Sharing: In cases where family sharing options are enabled, charges can arise from purchases made by family members without the user’s knowledge.
• Currency Conversion: Some users experienced higher charges due to unfavorable currency conversion rates when made through international transactions.
• Service Fees: Charges for additional services provided by Casual that may not be clearly stated at the point of purchase or in advertising.
• Promotional Offers: Miscommunication around promotional pricing can lead users to be charged at full price instead of a discounted rate they expected.
• Accidental Charges: Users have mentioned accidental clicks leading to unintended purchases during navigation within the app.
• Refund Delays: Some users noted delays in refund processing, which may lead them to see charges appear temporarily on their statements.

If you see this charge and aren’t expecting it, you have various options.

First, try to contact the casual.pm via one of the support methods we listed below and inquire about the charge. See if they will refund it and cancel any associated subscriptions you might have.

If the casual.pm refused to issue a refund or you cannot get in touch with the company, call your bank or financial institution and open a credit card dispute. Record screenshot evidence from your prior conversations with casual.pm, and use that to open your credit card dispute. Tell your bank or credit card issuer that you do not recognize the charge and do not recall signing up for the service.

If this sounds like too much of a hassle, you can have Chargeback do it for you.
