   • You will get a full refund within thirty days of your Plan’s purchase
   • More than thirty days after your receipt of this Plan, you will receive a pro-rata refund of the original price. The pro-rata refund depends on the percentage of unexpired Plan Term from the Plan’s date of purchase
   • Apple will give you any money back that the Payment Plan provider owns you in case you paid for your Plan through a Payment Plan Provider. Apple can provide you with any refund owned to your Payment Plan Provider.
