    “Refunds aren't available for digital purchases that have been played or used.“


    I have tried to refund the game “MindsEye” after being extremely disappointed in its performance issues such as heavy frame drops despite being “optimised for Xbox Series X”. My refund was immediately denied as “Refunds aren't available for digital purchases that have been played or used”. I am very disappointed.

    if it has been more than two weeks or you play more than two hours it is not eligible for refund

    Refund

    I recently bought GTA ONLINE and I accidentally bought the wrong version and I checked it out for a sec and it wasn't where I could play with my friends. I tried to refund and it said "refunds aren't available for digital purchases that have been played or used." How can I test out a game and if I don't like it, I still can't refund? Please let me refund GTA and buy the 29 dollar version.
    Youd have to reply to the email that said your refund was denied to get them to reconsider.

    Glitches in Asphalt 9 game shop, but cannot refund?

    I'll try to appeal then.

    The refund status stated "Refunds aren't available for digital purchases that have been played or used.".

    To be exact, the purchase item is Garage Lv. 11 offer which I'm supposed to get 1000 token, C 700,000, and x20 premium pack. None of items received but the Order says it's completed. Before reject the refund request, they should check if all of the items received. They can see clearly no extra 1000 tokens, C 700,000 and additional x20 pack received. It is crystal clear none of the items received in my account after order completed, and the money has been deducted.

    game I no longer play

    Digital refunds are typically only available if you have purchased the game within the past 14 days and have played less than 2 hours. Otherwise, there is no way to refund or get credit for digital purchases.
