Complain About Via Play - learn how to file a complaint

Immediate to 24 hours, but let's be real, it often feels like you're shouting into the void.

• Use the Contact Form: Since phone support is elusive, the form is your main channel. Be concise and clear.
• Attach Evidence: Include screenshots of billing errors, error messages, or poor stream quality.
• State Your Desired Outcome: Clearly say if you want a refund, a cancellation confirmation, or a technical fix.

If Via Play is ignoring you, it's time to escalate. Because Via Play is a Swedish company, your options depend on your location. For customers in the EU, you can file a complaint with the European Consumer Centres Network (ECC-Net). They provide free help and advice. You typically need to prove you tried to resolve it with Via Play first, so keep copies of your emails. Honestly, escalating often just means sending another email into the void, but sometimes the threat of a formal complaint gets their attention. For billing issues, a chargeback with your credit card company is often the fastest route.

Subject: Formal Complaint: Unresolved Billing Issue on Account [[Account #]]

To Whom It May Concern,

I am writing again to resolve an issue with my account. This is my third attempt to get help with an incorrect charge, and my patience is running out.

On [[Date]], I was charged [[$Amount]] for my subscription, even though I cancelled my service on [[Date of Cancellation]]. I have attached a screenshot of my cancellation confirmation for your reference. Frankly, having to track this down and spend my time chasing a refund has been incredibly frustrating.

To resolve this, I need you to issue a full refund of [[$Amount]] to my original payment method immediately and confirm in writing that my account is closed and no further charges will be made.

If I do not receive a satisfactory response and confirmation of my refund within 48 hours, my next step will be to file a chargeback with my credit card company and submit a formal complaint to the relevant consumer protection agency.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

Pro Tips for Making Your Complaint Heard

• Use Keywords in Your First Sentence: Start your email or chat with terms like "Incorrect Billing," "Cancellation Refund," or "Formal Complaint" to get routed past the basic bots.
• Request a Transcript: If you use live chat, always ask for a copy of the conversation to be emailed to you. This is your proof.
• Mention 'Chargeback': This is a magic word for many subscription services. The process is a hassle for them, so they are often more willing to issue a refund to avoid it.
• Reference Social Media: One user on Reddit said they finally got a response by publicly tweeting at them with a screenshot of their billing error. It's a long shot, but it can work when all else fails.
