REFUND GUIDE

How to Get a TAC Security Refund.

TAC Security refunds are per-order, here's what their policy actually says, and how to escalate if they ignore the request.

Last verified 7 Aug 2026 against TAC Security’s own Terms · UK, US, and EU rights covered below

The short answer

TAC Security's refund policy is very narrow: you only qualify if no vulnerability scan has been scheduled within 24 hours of signing up. Once a scan is scheduled, you forfeit the refund. Separately, if a payment is deducted but the transaction fails to complete, you're entitled to a refund of that failed charge, typically processed in 3 to 7 business days. Plans are one-off payments, so there's no recurring subscription to cancel, only the scan/refund question. All refund and upgrade requests go through casasupport@tacsecurity.com.

What TAC Security actually says

Refunds are only applicable if a vulnerability scan has not been scheduled within 24 hours of signing up for ESOF AppSec ADA CASA services. If a scan has been scheduled within this timeframe, the user is not eligible for a refund.

How long does a TAC Security 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.

United States

  • Fair Credit Billing Act (FCBA)
    Dispute any credit-card charge in writing within 60 days.

  • California ARL refund right
    Refund if cancel was blocked or unclear.

    If TAC Security made it hard to cancel under California ARL, you’re entitled to a refund of charges taken since the obstruction. Multiple class actions (including against Adobe + Hulu) have set the precedent.

Worldwide

  • Card-issuer chargeback

Refund FAQ for TAC Security

TAC Security's ESOF AppSec ADA CASA plans are **one-off annual purchases, not auto-renewing subscriptions**, so there's typically no recurring charge to cancel. If you've just signed up and want out, email **casasupport@tacsecurity.com** immediately, before any vulnerability scan is scheduled, to request cancellation and a refund. There is no self-serve cancel button in the dashboard, and support only runs weekdays 7am, 3pm EST, so send your request early and keep a copy.

Cancelling rather than claiming money back? See the TAC Security cancellation guide. For every other support channel, the TAC Security contact guide.
