I'm having trouble with my refund through Google Play – Lingokids Help Center
You may see a charge on your card or bank account while your Google Play account states that your purchase is "nonrefundable." This is due to Google’s new payment policy.

just as I feared: almost $300 refunded as Google Play credit, the rest to an old card.

Those refunds back to the banks usually take a few days to clear into the bank, anywhere from 1-5 days, so it's possible the bank wasn't helpful, solely because they couldn't see that those refunds were there yet

r/Stadia on Reddit: just as I feared: almost $300 refunded as Google Play credit, the rest to an old card.
March 15, 2021 -

Got my refunds. Almost $300 in play credit, half of which expires in a month.

2 transactions were declined, have me the option to change the payment method for refund and then said refunds are only given within 2 months of the purchase and refunded me zero.

The rest seems to have not gone through to my bank account because I got a new debit card since then, says the funds went through but are not in my account.

My bank was less than zero help and didn't seem to give a shit. Probably will change banks over this because they have never treated me like that before.

Overall, feeling about how I figured I would when the horror stories started rolling in and I really hate being right.

Was hoping to buy a series x or a ps5 but my refund amounts to Zero usable dollars.

r/streetfighterduel on Reddit: GooglePlay Refund Denied - What are my options?
March 19, 2023 -

As the subject states, I submitted a Google Play refund but it got denied. I reached out to Google Play Services, and they mentioned to reach out to the App developers, Crunchyroll. I sent them an email with the details but I have a strong feeling they're going to ignore it/reject it entirely.

Can I go to my Credit Card company and dispute the charge? Anyone else have any experience with this?

Yes, you can go to the credit card company have them stop payment. Most companies will do it without asking too many questions, but you will need to provide a reason such card being stolen. At which point, it that would be considered credit card fraud. You are unlikely to ever get audited, but be mindful that you will have to lie to your credit card company to get your money back. According to CR TOS - or basically any downloadable game TOS - refunds are not permitted so you are not entitled for a refund and they don't even have to look at your claim. CR did in some ways manipulate their TOS for their own benefit, but they also did not violate their own TOS. So really, there is no foot to stand on regardless of how jaded you feel. Whatever you tell your credit card company would be a lie and therefore is fraud. Also keep in mind, most credit card companies may only issue these type of stop charge once and only once. If you try it more, they may begin to audit or straight up cancel you card as well. In the long run, it could also hurt your credit score if you do attempt these type of charge backs too many times. Overall, if you didn't spend a ton of money, this likely isn't the sword to fall on.
