REFUND GUIDE

How to Get an Autossential Refund.

Autossential refunds are per-order, and their own policy gives you a 14-day window. Miss it and you still have tools, a clear email, a card-issuer chargeback. Here's the playbook.

Last verified 18 Jul 2026 against Autossential’s own Terms · UK, US, and EU rights covered below

The short answer

Autossential publishes a 'Returns & Refunds Policy' link in its footer but the page content was not exposed to scraping. As a UK-registered retailer (Drivy LTD, Company No. 13215291), distance sales of stocked accessories are covered by the statutory 14-day right to cancel under the Consumer Contracts Regulations. Bespoke, custom-fitted or already-installed services (ambient lighting, alloy refurb, window tints, screen upgrades) are typically outside that right once work has started. Always request cancellation in writing to support@autossential.com before your fitting slot.

Autossential’s refund policy

Autossential’s own refund policy isn’t prominently documented. That doesn’t mean you have no rights, most jurisdictions give you a statutory cancel-and-refund window on new subscriptions (14 days in the UK / EU, US auto-renewal protections vary by state). See “What you can claim, by region” below for the angle that applies where you live.

How long does a Autossential refund take?

Most merchants agree to a straightforward refund within 1 to 3 working days of a well-written email request. Once agreed, the money itself takes another 3 to 5 working days to land, that part is card-network processing and no merchant can skip it. If nothing has arrived 10 working days after a written “refund approved”, reply on the same thread asking for the ARN (acquirer reference number), which your bank can trace.

Note Autossential’s own policy works on a 14-day window, ask inside it and the request is routine; outside it you’re relying on goodwill or statutory rights.

What you can claim

The law where you live is the strongest hook, lead with it when you contact the company.

    Credit card issuer is jointly liable. £100-£30,000.

    For UK credit-card charges between £100 and £30,000, your card issuer is jointly liable with Autossential for any breach. Call your bank, say “Section 75 claim”, send evidence. Usually resolved in 2-4 weeks.
