The iTunes Apps Store policy states that all sales are final but did you know that if you have a genuine and valid reason, Apple will gladly issue a refund. If you are wondering why would anyone want refunds for apps and games purchased from the iTunes store, consider the following situations:
You ordered an HD movie from the iTunes store but after making the purchase, you realize that it would take several hours to download that massive file to your computer. You can stop the download but your credit card will still be charged.
- You have an iPhone but you accidentally bought an iPad version of some app which is obviously of no use to you. You can ask Apple for a refund.
- You wanted to buy a game but there were at least a dozen similar titles on the iTunes store (remember Flappy Birds?). The app you finally bought is not the one you were originally looking for and you therefore want to return it to Apple.
- You purchased a song from the iTunes store but there’s some problem with the audio format and it won’t play on your iPod or iPhone. You would like a refund in this case as well.
- You have two or more iTunes accounts and you purchased an iPhone App using the wrong iTunes account. You can’t transfer apps across accounts so a refund followed by re-purchase makes more sense.
- The 1-Click ordering system, that Apple licensed from Amazon, makes it easy for anyone to buy apps, songs, movies and games from the iTunes store with a single click but this can sometimes lead to accidental purchases especially when kids have access to your devices. They may make in-app purchases without your knowledge.
