App Charges

Purchased a Qr Code Reader App back in December because I needed it to read a menu at a restaurant during the Covid pandemic. Discovered this week that I was being charged over $20.00 every two weeks to keep it. You refunded me $80.00 (thank you) but I'm still $80.00 out of pocket for something I did not know I'd be paying for. And, frankly, $9.99 per week is highway robbery, especially for an app I used only one time. I should be refunded the full amount.

iPhone 6s, iOS 11

The people responding on this support forum are users like you and we only know what Apple says in its documentation and what our own and other users' experience tells us. Apple does not have much on its criteria for refusing refunds. Here are two sections from the September, 2020 Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions - https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/us/terms.html


- "All Transactions are final."

This means that Apple is starting from a point where any refund is considered an exception, They can simply say no without having to provide a reason. I understand this can be frustrating but they set the terms and you agree to them when using the service.


- "From time to time, Apple may refuse a refund request if we find evidence of fraud, refund abuse, or other manipulative behavior that entitles Apple to a corresponding counterclaim."


If you feel you want to discuss a refund request, try to contact a live person using a telephone or chat request.


Click here --> https://support.apple.com/choose-country-region/media-services Select your country, then a product. If you don't see one that handles your issue then keep experimenting with selections until you reach one that gets you a chat session or a telephone call and get the representative to redirect you.
