Get your money back from a company
“A company charged me wrongly, won't honor a return, or ignores me.”
AI helps you write a clear, firm request with the facts, then escalate step by step: support, a formal complaint, card dispute, or a regulator. You send each message.
Fix it yourself in 3 steps
- Gather the receipt, dates, what was promised, and every message so far.
- Ask the AI to draft a short, factual refund request with a deadline for reply.
- If ignored, ask for the next escalation (card dispute, consumer agency complaint) and file it yourself.
Copy this prompt
A company owes me a refund: [what happened, dates, amount, what they promised]. Draft a short, factual refund request with a 14-day reply deadline. Then list my escalation options in order (card dispute, consumer agency, small claims) with links to official sources and deadlines. Don't send or file anything — stop after the drafts.
Fill in the [brackets]. Each prompt says when the AI should stop, so it doesn't wander off.

Black out account and card numbers before sharing anything. Never give an AI your bank password — export statements instead. AI drafts; you approve and send. Not financial, legal or tax advice.
