    Hi *******,

    Thank you for reaching out and allowing us the opportunity to resolve this for you.

    We completely understand your concerns regarding the account. Please share with me the email request to cancel your account. We will be more than happy to investigate your prior request to cancel. ReversePhone wants our customers to be aware of the billing prior to creating an account with us.

    Prior to signing up for our 7-day trial, it is required to review and agree to the terms and conditions and privacy policy. Therefore, each customer agrees to the terms of our service which includes instructions on how to cancel the trial.

    Please note that our subscriptions are not based on usage; they are recurring subscriptions that will continue to renew until a customer cancels as stated in the agreed terms. In the example provided you will see the *** Billing Detail section that also provides information on how to cancel the trial and instructions on how to reach us. (Please review the attachment)

    To summarize, section 18 of the Terms and conditions state: We offer refunds, You are typically limited to receipt of a single refund per subscription. Repetitive refunds are not permitted.


    In this event we have issued a refund beyond a single refund in the amount of $29.99. We issued this refund in an act of good faith based on your expressed circumstances.

    If you have additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact us **********************************
