In summary, It's simple all about Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg selling Facebook users data which was used to influence USA presidential elections.

I'll say Facebook owner mark Zuckerberg didn't try on his own just selling users data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, I'd suggest you ditch the to foil hat. Throwing mad conspiracy theories out there is a bad look on anyone. Someone could make and equally strong, but also equally mad, cas that there's a right Wii conspiracy on social media. But more pertinently, please keep political discussions on the appropriate part of the forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, this is how it should work with the PlayStation store as well but I guess they don't want to add it because they want as much money as they can get. The Play Store lets you get a refund for any game, no matter what if you request it before an hour has passed after purchasing it. It's a great policy and ensures that you don't risk losing money for awful games on the market. Yeah, that's how it's done and how it's supposed to be because if they left it to last more than a few hours or a day, most users would have used and enjoyed the app and ask for a refund immediately which is bad for business.

How much did you originally pay and was the refund successful? I once had to scroll through my order history and fill a refund request form for an album I bought from the retailer as the quality was awful! They gave me the full amount back within a few hours and the £9.99 was credited back into my Play Store Account for future purchases. I've never experienced any problems with games downloaded through the Play Store When there was a huge mess up with the release of Cyberpunk 2077, my friend got his full refund for the game as he couldn't play it on its PS4 then. He never agreed to get it again now it's out again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, I wouldn't blame anyone who doesn't want to get it anymore because of what they all passed through with the first horrible release.

skyfire Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 I think not compatible phones is another reason for many games not able to played on the device and so the refunds follow too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
