I bought Freeletics on the App Store for $125. Their app description clearly states a 14 day money back guarantee. Twice. I tried it out and the app sucks so I requested a refund through Report a Problem from Apple within a few days. Since I requested a refund, I lost access to the app. Apple denied my refund twice saying that I’m “ineligible.” I’ve talked to a bunch of Apple specialists who all do the same thing - deny me and try to placate me by making a note of my complaint.

So now I have no shitty app and I’m out $125. Freeletics won’t give me access back because I requested a refund. Apple won’t give me a refund. I’d really just like my money back.

My current plan is just to keep messaging and calling Apple support to waste at least $125 of their time. I didn’t actually do that. It would be a huge waste of my own time. In my own pettiness, I’ve made sure to cancel all of my subscriptions through the App Store. From now on I’ll only use apps that let me handle a subscription from their websites. My credit card has better refund protection than Apple does.

Some clarifying information - Freeletics states twice in their app description that they offer a 14 day money back guarantee. You cannot access the pro features without purchasing. I made a refund request well within those 14 days. I told this to Apple. They didn’t care.

can someone please help me? i made an accidental subscription through apple (in app), and the amount is really high. i’ve already requested a refund twice, but apple has denied both requests. i'm feeling really frustrated and don’t know what to do next.

here's the situation: • the purchase was accidental. • the amount is quite large, and I really need to get this resolved. • i've submitted two refund requests, but both were rejected by apple. • i've checked my purchase history and followed the usual refund process, but nothing seems to be working.

i also sent an email to the app’s support email, but I haven’t received any response.

has anyone here dealt with something similar and managed to get a refund from apple? any advice on what steps i should take next or how to improve my chances would be really appreciated.

on 4.11.2024 I accidentally signed up for a Microsoft 365 year (69,99€) subscription.

it was through my macbook, through Word, I needed to do something for school so I clicked on a message from Word offering me a month free. it asked for my email, I used my school one.

immediately after i got a notification saying I have been charged 69,99€ and a receipt to my non-school email adress -which I didn't even sign up with.

I immediately cancelled my subscription and talked to a Microsoft support guy online and he said the purchase was made through a 3rd party app (Apple) and that I should contact them.

Apple refused both a refund and an appeal.

What should I do? Should I contact Microsoft again?

I'm 17 years old and can't afford losing 70€. Any help is appreciated. G
