How can I get a refund for unwanted app?

My kids downloaded an extension of an app, made for kids, that cost $100. They thought it was free, until I got the bill. How can I get a refund for this and remove the app? This is wrong on so many levels, beginning with having a free app for kids luring them to a ridiculously priced one. Any help is appreciated.

You posted in the Mac computer OS X Tiger 10.4 forum. You don't provide enough info. Was this an iPad app, iPhone app, an iPod app purchased from the iTunes store? Or an app purchased from another source?
The remedy - don't give your kids the password and answer to security questions.
If purchased from the iTunes store, there's a link on the invoice.

How can I get a refund for an app?

I bought an app a couple of days ago, then found it doesn't do what I thought it would. How can I get a refund?

Thanks. It looks like I haven't received that receipt yet, but now I know what to do.

How can I get a refund for an app that doesn't work?

I just purchased "DVDRipper Pro 3.2.19. However, it just doesn't work. I was unable to get contact with the developer website to ask for support. Could anyone tell how can I get refund from App Store. Thanks.

Refunds on downloaded software are virtually nonexistent.
I have had cases where I purchase software on a physical disk. If I don't like the software I can uninstall it from my computer and sell it legally. Recouping most of my loss.

TS1702 How can I get a refund for an app that I accidentally purchased. It's called "Flash Drive Pro". I was feeling sleepy while trying to find apps to download and try out. Can I get a refund?

I accidentally downloaded a paid app, while laying down on my sofa and while fighting to stay awake. But I fell asleep and woke up just in time to see me press "Yes" on the "Are you sure" question (at least the way I remember it).
Are all sales final, or can I get a refund?

How can I get a refund for an app that did not download/do not now want

I decided to buy an app that cost £39.99. It did not download & still has not 24 hours later. Meanwhile iTunes have emailed a receipt for the payment. I have clicked on Report a Problem on the receipt but it does not lead anywhere. Suggestions please.

Once you buy it you have bought it and Apple generally does not do refunds. You can ask but it will have to be an exception.

What can be done is try to redownload the app.
Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not all media formats are available in all countries (see: iTunes in the Cloud, iTunes Match, and iTunes Radio availability by country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085); apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later. Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones, audiobooks), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid. Apple recommends, "... back up your iTunes library. " (http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519). Additional tip at https://discussions.apple.com/message/24176756#24176756 Select the iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes if you have the sidebar displayed, or with the button at the top right. Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links (see https://discussions.apple.com/message/26364186#26364186) You can re-download your available previous purchases.

According to Apple, all sales are final > iTUNES STORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS
But you could try contacting the app developer.

Click here and ask the iTunes Store staff for a refund. Consider whether or not you want to do this now carefully first; if they grant one, you'll need a very good reason to get another from them.

You've tried deleting and redownloading them and seeing if they then work and tried contacting the developers ? If you have and they can't/won't help then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

how can I get a refund for a purchase made by a minor?

You contact iTunes store support and plead your case. YOU are responsible for the security of your Apple ID and password. There are numerous mechanisms in place to make it easy to prevent unauthorized purchases. IF they agree to give you a refund, they will not do so a second time.

How can I get a refund for a Mac APp store product I purchased which I dont want?

Apple views sales as final. Have you contacted the developer about the issue that you have with the app?
When the emailed receipt arrives you can start a conversation with iTunes/Mac App Store Support about a refund via the Report link.

How can I get a refund for a album

How can I get a refund for a album I bought at the music store...If I can? Reason being I hit the wrong Buy button.
Actually, I've had original CD already.

Go into your itunes store account and click on purchase history. Click on "Report a problem" at the bottom of the page. If it was your last purchase it should be at the top and have a link that you can click on that says "Report A problem". Follow the steps the screen gives from there. This is not a guarantee that you will receive a refund (or store credit which is what they would give) but one of the options is "Accidently clicked Buy" or something to that effect. Someone should email you within 12 hours I believe (the screen will tell you how long after you submit).

How can I get a refund for an in app purchase I did not want?

How can I get a refund for an in app purchase I did not want?
The app took over $35 from my account and there is no way this was authorized. Please advise on how I can recover these funds.

They did the same thing to me on 12/24/11. Apple overcharged me 3 times my purchase amount and have caused my bank account to be overdrawn!
I called my bank to make a statement of unauthorized charges AND filed a complaint with the FTC (Federal Trade Commission). Apple provided no way to contact a live rep and the email reps have been useless...so they left me no other option.
I think they do this to their customers very often. It is extremely dishonest.
I actually posted the above info on this discussion community earlier today...and Apple deleted it! If that isn't an admission of guilt, I don't know what is.
But seriously...best of luck.
