Does Rork have good customer support?

Reviews say no. Rork's docs state Rork Max users get priority chat support and Rork Pro users get email support, with the Free plan having no included channel, but Trustpilot and Product Hunt reviewers describe reaching only a bot and never a human, refund requests going unanswered, and one report that the listed support address bounced as undeliverable. There is no published phone number. Assume email is a paper-trail exercise, not a resolution channel: send once, set a deadline, keep the copy, and escalate to your card issuer if the deadline passes.

What if Rork ignores my cancellation or refund request?

Don't keep re-sending. Build the file: the Stripe cancellation screenshot, your dated email to **support@rork.com**, the card statement lines, and screenshots of the failures. Then go to your bank or card issuer, an unresponsive merchant plus a documented request is exactly the pattern dispute teams accept. UK cardholders paying £100+ on a credit card have an additional route through their issuer. Because charges run through Stripe, you can also remove the payment method after cancelling to stop any further attempt. Public review threads get faster responses from Rork than the inbox does.

How do I cancel Rork on iPhone?

If you subscribed inside the Rork mobile app, Apple is the merchant of record, Rork's docs say plainly that on mobile you manage and cancel the subscription through the **App Store**. Open Settings → your name → Subscriptions → Rork → Cancel Subscription. The same applies to the money: refunds for an App Store purchase are requested from Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com, not from Rork's support inbox. If you subscribed on the web and also use the app, only the web/Stripe cancellation matters, check both places if you're unsure which one billed you.

Can I downgrade Rork instead of cancelling?

Yes. On desktop, click your profile → **Manage Subscription** and choose a lower plan; Rork's docs confirm you can upgrade, downgrade or cancel at any time. Downgrading is sensible if you'll build again in a month, Rork Pro at around $20, $25 keeps Build mode and code export alive for far less than Rork Max at $200. Two caveats: a downgrade normally takes effect at the next renewal rather than refunding the current cycle, and it keeps billing active, so if you actually want out, complete the cancel flow and screenshot the confirmation.

Why is Rork's Trustpilot score so low?

Because Trustpilot captures what happens *after* payment. Rork scores well on Product Hunt for the delight of a fast first build, while Trustpilot reviews cluster around crashes and error loops, credits burned fixing the AI's own mistakes, forfeited credits at reset, locked projects after cancellation, and unanswered support. Several reviewers describe requesting refunds and getting no reply at all. For your purposes the signal is practical rather than reputational: budget for the possibility that neither the product nor the refund lands, cancel early rather than hoping support responds, and keep every receipt.

REFUND GUIDE

How to Get a Rork Refund When Support Ignores You.

Here's what Rork actually owes you, what their policy quietly says, and how to escalate if they ignore the request.

Last verified yesterday against Rork’s own Terms · UK, US, and EU rights covered below

The short answer

Rork's Terms of Service cover paid Services in general but state no refund window, no money-back guarantee and no proration rule, the only monetised product is the Rork Pro / Rork Max credit subscription, so every refund is discretionary and handled by support case-by-case. Subscription charges taken on the web are processed through Stripe, so a cancellation in the Stripe billing portal stops future renewals but does not itself return the current month's payment. Credit allowances are a separate matter: credits reset each cycle and unused credits are forfeited rather than refunded or rolled over, and multiple reviewers report losing paid credits and access to projects when the subscription ended. If you subscribed inside the iOS app, Apple is the merchant of record for that charge and the refund request goes to Apple, not to Rork.

Rork’s refund policy

Rork’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 Rork 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.

Refund FAQ for Rork

There's no published refund window or money-back guarantee, Rork's Terms of Service mention paid Services without stating any refund rule, so every refund is discretionary. Ask anyway: email **support@rork.com** with your account email, the invoice number, the charge date and amount, and a short factual list of what failed. Reviewers repeatedly report refund requests going unanswered, so set a 5-business-day deadline in the email, then raise a chargeback or Section 75 claim with your card issuer using the ignored email as evidence. Cancelling first does not weaken the refund claim.
