How to Request a Refund
- Open a ticket from the admin console or email billing@filewalls.com.
- Include invoice number, account email, and a short description.
- Allow 3–5 business days for review; we may request additional details.
- Approved refunds are processed to the original payment method; credits appear on the next invoice.
Examples
- • You remove 8 seats halfway through the month → we apply a prorated credit.
- • You upgraded to Teams Pro → we charge the difference for the remaining days.
- • You were charged twice for the same invoice → we reverse one charge after verification.
Processing times depend on your bank or card network (typically 5–10 business days after issuance).
Billing cycles & renewals
Plans renew automatically until canceled. Cancel any time from the admin console; service continues through the paid period.
Taxes & currency
Prices exclude applicable taxes. Charges are processed in your billing currency; exchange rates and bank fees may apply.
Trial period
Trials are for evaluation and may be limited. If you convert to a paid plan, standard billing terms apply.
SLA service credits
For eligible plans, claim credits by opening a ticket with timestamps, affected regions, and impact details.
This policy works together with our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
