refund declined

Refund declined email

Careful email when a refund is not available under policy: explains the reason, avoids argument, and offers escalation.

After review when the digital product was delivered and the refund policy does not allow refund.

Owner note

Tone should be firm but not cold. Do not blame the customer.

Fallback

If the reason is unclear, do not send until the owner writes a policy reason.

Do this

  • Reference a specific policy reason.
  • Invite reply if there is new information.
  • Keep it concise.

Avoid this

  • Do not write aggressively legalistic copy.
  • Do not close the conversation forever.
  • Do not offer a new paid product instead of the refund.
