Refund requests for BandScore digital services

This draft explains how refund requests are assessed. It does not create an automatic refund guarantee; applicable law and the final approved policy continue to apply.

Effective date: Pending legal and payment-provider reviewVersion: 2026.08-draftLast updated: August 2026

1. Scope and individual review

Proposed — legal review

Refunds are reviewed against the purchased product, payment record, delivery status, usage, technical evidence and applicable law. An eligible remedy may be restoration, a replacement attempt or credit, or a provider refund depending on what failed.

Every section of this draft must be reviewed by qualified Uzbek legal counsel and by Payme/Uzum payment specialists before publication as a final binding policy.

2. Duplicate charges and failed service delivery

Proposed — legal review
Duplicate charge: two verified completed charges for one intended purchase may qualify for reversal or refund review. Provide both transaction references and amounts.
Failed service delivery: if a paid entitlement was never activated, support will first reconcile the provider confirmation and BandScore order. If delivery cannot be restored, the payment may qualify for refund review.

A pending or declined provider authorization is not treated as a completed BandScore payment unless the provider and order records show a completed charge.

3. Empty or corrupted AI reports and used credits

Proposed — legal review

An empty, corrupted or technically unreadable paid AI report should be reported before submitting the same work again. Support may retry evaluation or restore the affected credit; if the paid output cannot be delivered, a refund may be reviewed.

A credit is generally considered used after a usable report has been generated. Dissatisfaction with an estimate alone is not an automatic refund reason because AI feedback is a practice estimate, not an official IELTS result.

Used AI credits are not automatically refundable. Platform delivery failures remain reviewable with the report or submission identifier.

5. Camera, microphone and device incompatibility

Proposed — legal review

Camera or microphone permission denial, unsupported hardware, browser restrictions or a learner-side connection problem is not automatically a platform delivery failure.

Run the equipment, speaker, headphone, microphone, camera and network checks before starting a paid attempt. If those checks pass but the platform later fails, include that fact and the error evidence in the request.

Verified Mode may be unavailable on incompatible devices. Choosing to continue despite a failed pre-check may reduce refund eligibility, subject to applicable law and individual review.

6. Accidentally started and partially completed attempts

Proposed — legal review

Starting an attempt by mistake does not create an automatic refund right after paid access has been consumed. Contact support immediately and do not answer or submit sections while the request is reviewed.

Partially completed mocks are not automatically refundable. A platform-caused interruption may still qualify for recovery, replacement or refund review; voluntary abandonment normally does not.

Completed mocks and usable generated feedback are generally treated as delivered digital services unless a verified defect made the paid result unusable.

7. Subscription cancellation and renewal

Proposed — legal review

The current storefront policy identifies subscription renewal as manual repurchase, not an automatic recurring provider charge.

Using Cancel renewal marks the subscription cancelled while existing access remains until its displayed expiry. Cancellation does not itself refund the current paid period.

If recurring charging is introduced later, this policy and checkout disclosure must be updated and reviewed before activation. A refunded subscription order may cause the related subscription access to end immediately.

8. Promotional and free credits

Proposed — legal review

Promotional, administrative or free credits have no separate cash purchase price and are not exchanged for cash. If a promotion has separate published conditions, those conditions also apply.

A refund or provider reversal may remove unused entitlements granted by the refunded purchase. The entitlement ledger prevents the balance from being reduced below zero.

9. Request deadline and processing time

Proposed — legal review

The current draft asks learners to submit a refund request within 7 calendar days of payment. Submit platform failures as soon as possible so technical records can be checked. Rights that cannot lawfully be limited by this deadline remain unaffected.

BandScore’s current draft target is to perform the initial review within 3 business days after receiving enough evidence. This is a review target, not a guarantee that funds will arrive within that period.

Approved refunds are handled through the original provider where supported. Payme and Uzum process reversals separately, and each provider and issuing bank may post funds at a different speed. BandScore has no verified fixed provider-specific arrival time to publish.

10. Required information checklist

Proposed — legal review
BandScore account name or Telegram username used for the purchase.
BandScore order number and provider transaction reference, if available.
Provider, payment date, amount and purchased product.
Attempt, session, section or AI-report identifier connected to the problem.
What happened, the approximate time, browser/device and troubleshooting already attempted.
Screenshots of the error or provider receipt with complete card number, balance and other unrelated personal data hidden.

Never send a card PIN, CVV, complete card number, Telegram login code or payment one-time code.

11. How to request and track a refund

Proposed — legal review

Use the Start a refund request button below while signed in and choose the Payment category. You can also message the configured official Telegram support bot.

The authenticated support page shows your request and replies. The implemented states are pending, answered and closed. A status describes the support conversation; it does not itself confirm that a provider has posted funds.

For an unauthorized charge, contact your bank or provider immediately as well as BandScore support.

12. Technical troubleshooting before a request

Proposed — legal review
Confirm you are online and reload the dashboard before paying or consuming another credit.
Check the provider transaction history and the BandScore order-return page for a final payment state.
For a mock, stop and note the attempt, section, remaining time and exact error. Do not submit an empty section solely to bypass the problem.
Check browser site permissions and run the speaker, headphone, microphone, camera and network checks before starting or retrying.
Preserve non-sensitive screenshots and contact Technical Support for recovery. Use Payment Support when asking for a refund or reporting a duplicate charge.
