Immediate Product refund reasons

So now that you've finally decided to purchase that product and cannot wait to test it out , you have to find out that it does anything else but what you've expected. Don't worry, you still have a chance to get your money back with the following tips for obtaining a product refund instantly.

1. False advertising

"Get 10k hits to your website in 24 hours". This such attractive promises might sure make you wanna flip out your credit card immediately. But when you apply the methods or use the software and have to find out that those 10.000 hits might really result in 10, then this is a legitimate reason for requesting a refund. Unfortunately it's not always that easy. Many vendors get around such false advertising by telling in the fine print that these results cannot be guaranteed.

2. Product out-of-date

Believe it or not, but I've seen products that were still advertised and happily took the money out of the customers' pockets but were totally out-of-date or did not work anymore. I once bought a product that could not be downloaded anymore but still had the sales page up and working, it even displayed the latest date pointing the end of a special advancement. Every try to contact the creator of the software failed and after I read in a forum that I wasn't the only one not being able to download the software,I contacted the credit card processing company and got my money back.


3. Usability

Not every software is as user-friendly as Windows (you got the joke, right?!), which can be frustrating if you want nothing more than use it immediately. For most complex software products there exist written tutorials that exactly describe how to use them and sometimes even video tutorials that make the product handling had rather easier.If you've read and watched all of their tutorials and still cannot manahe to use the product, this to the creator and get your money back
If you've reached the product creator and still were non able to get a refund despite some legitimate and acceptable reasons, not all hope is gone. Most marketplaces offer a refund guarantee for products that were sold through them (e. g. Clickbank offers its customers a general refund policy of 8 weeks after the product purchase, for a seller like PayDotCom you have to contact the credit card processor like Paypal which has a refund policy of 2 months).

It is always advised to clearly state the cause for your product return and to keep a social communication style. Even if the product is not worth a single penny it doesn't make things easier when you insult the creator. Try to show that you've really trying to use the product in an good way, maybe tie some screenshots, include suggestions what could be better, etc. The product creator might loose you as a client but still can gain from your experience and will almost of the time happily give you the refund.

Whatever you do, please be fair. It's just not right to purchase a product which you badly want and then asking a refund to get your money back but still continue to use the product. Most marketplaces (Clickbank, PayDotCom) tolerate two or even more gives back, but after that you might not be able to purchase anything again through the specific company.
