How to Get a Micas Refund.
Here's what Micas actually owes you, what their policy quietly says, and how to escalate if they ignore the request.
The short answer
Micas's own refund policy isn't always documented, but consumer law gives you statutory rights in every major market, 14 days in the UK + EU, the FTC's Click-to-Cancel rule in the US, and card-issuer chargeback worldwide. Email them first with the template below, most of the time it lands without escalating.
Or let yoink chase the refund.
30 seconds to set up. yoink emails Micas, cites the policy, escalates if ignored, and surfaces the win when the money lands.

Micas’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 Micas 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.
What you can claim
The law where you live is the strongest hook, lead with it when you contact the company.
