Billing problem

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello,

    You can probably see from my history that I’m not using this account much. I’d mostly forgotten about it until recently. I did not know I was set up with a premium account, and I certainly had NO CLUE that it was set up on auto renew.

    Which it did. Christmas week. Overdrawing my account (thanks for that).

    It renewed a month before the anniversary of my original purchase, which is weird. And, when I tried to request a cancellation/refund (less than 3 days from the transaction), I received a message that I wasn’t in the 30 day window.

    I’m exhausted and disappointed. Please send me my refund. It might cover my overdraft fees.

    Thanks,
    A

    Hey there,

    I am more than happy to refund your recent auto-renew transaction.

    I wanted to make certain that it’s all right with you that when I do, your custom domain name, sintatrathehusky.com, will expire on January 21, 2015. As long as losing the domain is a-ok with you, I can go ahead and make the full refund.

    If you’d like to keep the domain name (you don’t even have to use it here…you can use it on a site you host elsewhere), I can refund you all but the $18 for the domain registration.

    Either way, I can take action as soon as I hear back from you. In the meantime, I see that you haven’t yet turned off auto-renew for your site. I’ve taken the liberty to do that for you, since it sounds as if you don’t need/want it. Let me know.

    Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks very much.

    Thanks so much for your quick response!

    Yes, I’d like the refund of the $99 fee for the premium account (Paypal transaction ID #3H026773K08787915). And thank you for taking me off of auto renew.

    However, I don’t see how I’d lose the domain, as I was also billed $26 as an annual registration fee for sinatrathehusky.com, over and above the $99 premium account fee. Perhaps this should have only been $18?

    Thank you again for helping me sort through all of this. The transaction details for the $26 charge are listed below:

    You did indeed have the two different purchases! I have gone ahead and cancelled the WordPress.com premium and have refunded you the $99. Depending on your band and their policies you should see your refund appear in the next few days to few weeks.

    Sorry for the delay!

    No worries on any delays – this was a terrible time of year to have billing problems. I’m super impressed with how quickly everything was cleared up. Many thanks to everyone who helped over the holiday weekend!

    When I get around to doing something with the site, I’ll definitely stick with WordPress.

    Thanks again!
