Refund Policy

Effective Date: January 1, 2025  ·  Last Updated: January 1, 2025

Please Read Before Purchasing: Fees paid to this service are for consultancy time, guidance, and support — not for guaranteed outcomes, successful results, or transactions performed on your behalf. By proceeding, you confirm you understand the nature of this service.
Our Commitment: We aim to provide a fair, transparent, and honest refund process. If something went wrong on our end, we will work to make it right. This policy is designed to be clear about what is and isn't eligible for a refund, so there are no surprises.

1 Overview

This Refund Policy applies to all paid services provided by our independent consultancy support service. It sets out the circumstances under which a refund may be issued, the process for requesting one, and the conditions under which refunds will not be granted.

We operate as an independent consultancy support service. We provide guidance to individuals seeking assistance with service appointment booking for their vehicle or with navigating their auto finance payment options. We do not act on behalf of any manufacturer, dealership, lender, or official provider, and we do not perform any transactions on behalf of our customers.

Nature of Service: Because our service involves the time, expertise, and effort of our support team — rather than the delivery of a physical product — our refund terms reflect the consultancy nature of what we provide.

2 What You Are Paying For

It is important that you understand what any fee associated with our service covers before proceeding. Fees charged by our service are for the following:

What fees cover:

  • Consultancy time: The time our support agents spend understanding your situation and providing individualized guidance.
  • Support and assistance: The effort involved in researching, explaining, and walking you through your options in a clear and helpful way.
  • Access to guidance: The provision of information and direction relevant to your specific inquiry, including vehicle service guidance or auto finance payment navigation.

What fees do NOT cover:

Fees paid to us are not payment for guaranteed outcomes, resolved issues, successful appointment bookings, completed payments, or any result achieved or unachieved. We are compensated for our time and expertise — the same way any professional consultancy service is — regardless of the ultimate outcome of your situation.
  • Fees do not guarantee that your specific problem will be resolved
  • Fees do not represent payment for services performed by any dealership, lender, or official provider
  • Fees do not cover any financial transactions of any kind
  • Fees do not represent a commitment to a particular outcome

3 Refund Eligibility

We assess refund requests on a case-by-case basis. The following framework sets out the general criteria that determine whether a refund is or is not applicable.

✓ May Be Eligible

  • Service was not delivered after payment was received
  • Call was disconnected before any guidance was provided due to a technical issue on our side
  • A billing error occurred — for example, you were charged an incorrect amount
  • You were charged for a service that was not agreed upon or described to you in advance
  • A demonstrable technical failure on our platform prevented the service from being rendered

✕ Not Eligible

  • You received a consultation and guidance was provided
  • You did not follow the guidance provided and the outcome was not as hoped
  • The outcome of your situation was not what you expected
  • You misunderstood the scope of our service prior to purchase
  • You expected us to act as an official provider or to perform transactions
  • Issues arose with a dealership, lender, or service center after our guidance
  • You chose not to follow through with the guidance provided

All refund decisions are made at the sole discretion of our management team following a review of the relevant circumstances. We will always aim to treat each case fairly.

4 Partial Refunds

In some circumstances where a full refund is not warranted but a complete denial would not be fair, we may choose to issue a partial refund at our discretion. Partial refunds may be considered in situations such as:

  • A call was significantly disrupted part-way through due to a technical issue on our end, and only partial guidance was delivered
  • A service was partially rendered but could not be completed due to circumstances within our control
  • An extended delay in service delivery was caused by our team without reasonable notice to you
Discretionary: Partial refunds are not a guaranteed entitlement. They are offered as a good-faith measure where we determine that a partial resolution is fair given the specific circumstances of your case. We are under no obligation to offer a partial refund in any given situation.

5 How to Request a Refund

If you believe you are eligible for a refund based on the criteria in Section 3, please follow the process below. Requests submitted correctly and within the required timeframe will be reviewed promptly.

1

Contact Us

Send your request to our refund email within 7 days of the service date.

2

Include Details

Provide your name, date of service, phone number used, and a clear description of the issue.

3

We Review

We will review your request and respond within 5 business days.

4

Resolution

If approved, refunds are issued to the original payment method within 7–10 business days.

Required Information for Your Request

To process your request efficiently, please include the following in your refund email:

  • Your full name
  • The phone number used to contact our service
  • The date on which the service was provided or payment was made
  • A clear and concise description of the issue or reason for the refund request
  • The amount you believe should be refunded
  • Any supporting details that may assist our review (for example, call reference numbers if available)
Time Limit: Refund requests must be submitted within 7 calendar days of the original service date or payment date. Requests submitted after this window will not be considered, except in exceptional circumstances at our sole discretion.

6 Non-Refundable Conditions

The following circumstances are explicitly non-refundable. By proceeding with any paid service, you acknowledge and accept these conditions.

  • Completed consultations: Where a guidance session was delivered in full and our support team provided assistance relevant to your inquiry, the service has been rendered and no refund will be issued.
  • Misunderstanding of service scope: If you proceeded with payment based on a misunderstanding of what our service does — for example, believing we would act as an official provider, complete a booking, or process a payment on your behalf — this does not constitute grounds for a refund. The nature of our service is clearly stated on our website.
  • Unsatisfactory outcome: If you followed our guidance but the outcome of your situation was not what you hoped for — including a missed payment, a booking that did not go as expected, or a response from a third party that did not meet your expectations — this does not entitle you to a refund. We are compensated for guidance, not results.
  • Third-party service issues: Any issue arising from the actions, policies, or decisions of a dealership, lender, service center, or other provider is entirely outside our control and does not form grounds for a refund from us.
  • Change of mind: Deciding after a consultation that you no longer wish to pursue the matter, or that our guidance was not needed, does not entitle you to a refund.
  • Late refund requests: Requests submitted beyond the 7-day window will not be processed unless exceptional circumstances are demonstrated.

7 Dispute & Chargeback Policy

We understand that billing concerns or disputes can arise, and we are committed to resolving them fairly and promptly. Before initiating any formal dispute or chargeback process with your bank or card provider, we ask that you give us a reasonable opportunity to resolve the matter directly.

Please Contact Us First

By using our services, you agree to contact us directly before filing any payment dispute or chargeback with your financial institution. Most concerns can be resolved quickly and without the need for a formal dispute process.

We will make every reasonable effort to review your concern, explain the charges, and where appropriate, issue a refund in accordance with this policy. We ask for a minimum of 5 business days to respond before you escalate to your bank.

Please be aware: Initiating a chargeback without first contacting us may be considered a breach of these Terms. We reserve the right to provide your bank with records of service delivery, call logs, and correspondence as part of any dispute review process.

We are not attempting to limit your legitimate rights as a consumer. Rather, we ask that disputes are handled collaboratively and in good faith — which protects both parties and typically leads to a faster resolution than a formal bank dispute.

8 Independent Consultancy Service Disclaimer

Our service exists to guide you — not to act on your behalf with any external organization. Accordingly, we are not responsible for the actions, decisions, errors, or omissions of any third party.

We are not responsible for issues arising from your interactions with: auto finance lenders, Hyundai Motor Finance, Kia Finance America, Genesis Finance, dealerships or their service departments, vehicle service centers, payment portals, or any other official provider or business.

Specifically, we are not liable for:

  • A lender rejecting, delaying, or mishandling a payment
  • A dealership or service center that fails to meet your expectations
  • Errors on an official provider's website, portal, or phone system
  • Changes to official processes, fees, or availability at any provider
  • Information provided by a third party that contradicts or differs from our general guidance

Any complaint, dispute, or concern relating to the actions of an official provider should be directed to that provider through their own customer service channels.

9 Changes to This Policy

We reserve the right to update or modify this Refund Policy at any time. Changes will take effect immediately upon being posted to this page. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will always reflect when the most recent revision was made.

We encourage you to review this policy before making any payment to ensure you understand the current terms. Your continued use of our services following any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.

For services already in progress at the time of a policy change, the version of this policy in effect at the time of your payment will apply.
