Can I get a refund from VeePN?

Yes, within the money-back window: **14 days** on weekly and monthly plans, **30 days** on 6-month or longer plans, counted from your original purchase date. Email support from your registered address *before* deleting your account, deleting it first forfeits the refund. Refunds go to your original payment method and are usually processed within **10 working days** (banks can take up to ~14 days more to show it). Discounted-trial fees and rebilled/renewed subscriptions are non-refundable.

How can I cancel the auto-renewal?

VeePN's help center says to **contact support using the email address you registered with**, and they'll turn off auto-renewal for you, there isn't a self-service toggle for all payment types. Importantly, **turning off auto-renewal does not cancel your current subscription**; it just stops the next charge, and you keep access until the period ends. If you bought via an app store, switch off auto-renewal in the store settings instead.

Will I lose access if I cancel VeePN?

Not immediately. VeePN confirms that cancelling a subscription means cancelling its **renewal**, you can keep using the service until the paid period expires. The exception is if you request a **refund**: getting your money back ends the service. Also note that **deleting your account** forfeits any remaining time and any refund, so don't delete the account if you still want to use the days you paid for or intend to claim money back.

Why does VeePN keep charging me after I cancelled?

This is the most common complaint. Usual causes: (1) you cancelled the app but the subscription lives in your **App Store/Google Play** account and must be stopped there; (2) you turned off auto-renewal, which stops *future* charges but the current term already rebilled; or (3) the cancellation email never fully processed. Deleting the app never cancels billing. Email **support@veepn.com** with your payment details and order number, and if charges continue, dispute them with your bank.

Can I cancel VeePN during the free trial?

Yes, but timing is strict. VeePN's mobile free trials auto-convert to a paid subscription, so you must **cancel at least 48 hours before the trial ends** in your app store settings to avoid being charged. On the web, discounted-trial fees are **non-refundable** even if you cancel before it ends, so treat that fee as spent. Deleting the app does not cancel a trial-to-paid conversion, cancel in the store or by emailing support.

What if VeePN ignores my cancellation or refund request?

Keep a dated copy of your cancellation email as proof you requested it inside the window. If support goes quiet or refuses within the guarantee period, escalate: reply referencing your original request date, contact them via the help-center contact form, and if that fails, raise a **chargeback with your card issuer or PayPal**. UK cardholders can also use Section 75 / chargeback rights. Don't close an open dispute until the refund actually clears your account.

Can I pause VeePN instead of cancelling?

There's no evidence VeePN offers a formal pause option, the documented choices are to cancel the subscription (you keep access until it expires) or turn off auto-renewal to stop the next charge. If you just don't want to be billed again but want to finish your paid term, ask support to disable auto-renewal rather than cancel outright. If money-back timing allows, cancelling with a refund is the cleaner exit.

Can I downgrade my VeePN plan instead of cancelling?

VeePN sells three tiers (Basic, Pro, Max), but the sources don't document a self-service downgrade flow. Be careful: the terms say any change to your original purchase, such as **upgrading the billing term or adding licenses, waives your money-back guarantee**. If you want a cheaper plan, ask support directly and confirm in writing how it affects your refund eligibility before agreeing to any change.

The short answer

VeePN gives a 14-day money-back guarantee on weekly and monthly plans, and a 30-day guarantee on 6-month or longer plans, counted from your original purchase date. You request it by emailing support from your registered address before deleting your account, deleting the account first forfeits the refund. Fees for discounted trials are strictly non-refundable, and you can only claim a refund once; rebilled or renewed subscriptions are treated as non-refundable. Beyond the window, VeePN may grant a pro-rata refund at its discretion if the service was unusable and you tried to resolve it.

What VeePN actually says

“If you choose not to use our paid Services anymore, we guarantee you the right to claim a refund within 14 or 30 days since the date of the original purchase following your subscription to our Services.”

How long does a VeePN 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 VeePN’s own policy works on a 30-day window, ask inside it and the request is routine; outside it you’re relying on goodwill or statutory rights.

Refund FAQ for VeePN

No, VeePN doesn't charge a fee to cancel. The catch isn't a fee, it's timing: subscriptions **auto-renew**, so if you don't cancel before the period ends you're billed for the next term. On the long-term plans a large amount is charged upfront (for example $55.72 for the first 28 months of Basic), and the fee for a **discounted trial is non-refundable** even if you cancel early. Cancel inside the 14- or 30-day money-back window to get your money back cleanly.
