Is FUNIMATION STREAMING fraud?

• Subscription Renewals: Many customers are charged because their monthly or yearly subscription automatically renews at the end of the billing cycle.
• Free Trials: Some users report being charged after a free trial period ends, often forgetting to cancel before being billed.
• Premium Content Purchases: Charges may result from purchasing episodes, movies, or other premium content that isn't included in standard subscriptions.
• Account Sharing: In some cases, users found charges because they shared their account, leading to unauthorized purchases or subscriptions by others.
• Service Fees: Customers have mentioned small service fees for specific transactions, such as add-ons or premium features.
• International Charges: Users outside the U.S. reported differing billing based on regional pricing or currency conversion fees.
• Multiple Accounts: Some users accidentally signed up for multiple accounts, resulting in multiple charges without realizing it.
• Promotional Offers: Customers have been charged for promotional offers that led to a subscription automatically converting to a paid plan.
• Chargebacks and Disputes: There are instances where disputing a charge led to confusion and unexpected fees being reinstated.

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

First, try to contact the funimation.com 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 funimation.com 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 funimation.com, 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.
