Are You Trying to Get an iTunes Refund? Learn How With DoNotPay

What Is the iTunes Refund Policy?

Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions stipulate that should technical problems prevent or delay delivery of Content, you can either replace it or get a refund of the price paid. From time to time, Apple may occasionally refuse a refund request if they suspect you have committed fraud, abused the refund policy, or displayed other manipulative behavior that entitles the company to a corresponding counterclaim.

Why Can't I Request an Apple Refund for an iTunes Purchase?

If you had managed to figure out how to request an iTunes refund, you might have noticed that requesting one isn't always an option.

If a charge is pending, you can't request a refund yet. Once it's been processed, you can try to request a refund again.

If you have an unpaid order, you might not be able to request a refund before you settle your debts.

Why Doesn't Apple Approve My iTunes Refund Request?

Given that Apple hasn't laid out clear rules regarding refunds on digital downloads available on iTunes and App Store, it is not clear when you are eligible for one.

That said, Apple does provide occasional iTunes refunds, but if it perceives a frequency pattern with some users, it may begin to deny their requests.
