Accidental purchase from the iTunes Store or the App Store
We always think it happens to others. And then one day, without really realizing it, we find ourselves accidentally downloading a paid application from the App Store. It is generally at this point that we regret not having implemented the system of purchase restrictions allowing us to request a password before each download of apps or content from the App Store or the iTunes Store. But now it's too late.
How to get a refund on a purchase on the App Store
Fortunately for you, Apple has implemented a procedure to be reimbursed for an application . Here's how
- Launch iTunes
- Select the section Your account and then click on Purchase history
- From this page you can view all purchases made from the Apple store whether applications or multimedia content such as movies, music or e-books
- Click the Report Error button
- Then choose from the list the application purchased by mistake
- You will then be asked to explain the reasons that prompted you to request a reimbursement.
- Select the answer that best fits your problem from the drop-down menu
Remember that this system was not set up to test an application for free. Beyond a certain number of refunds, the user's account will be automatically placed on a black list. No more refunds will be authorized..
