How to Get a Verisure Refund After Cancelling.
Inside 14 days their own policy is on your side; statutory cooling-off rights may stack on top. Outside it, you've still got tools, a clear email, a card-issuer chargeback, the lot. Here's the playbook for Verisure.

The short answer
Verisure does not publish a money-back guarantee. Your strongest refund route is the 14-day statutory cooling-off period under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, which starts from the day the contract is signed (not installation day) when the deal was agreed at home, online or by phone. Outside that window, leaving inside the minimum term usually means paying the remaining monthly fees as an early-termination charge. After the fixed term, the contract rolls over and a written notice period (commonly 30 to 90 days) applies, miss it and you auto-renew.

How long does a Verisure 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 Verisure’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.

Refund FAQ for Verisure
Verisure does not publish a flat cancellation fee. If you leave inside the initial fixed term, the standard position is that you pay the **remaining monthly fees** for the months left on the contract, which can run into four figures on a 36 to 48 month deal. Outside the fixed term the contract typically rolls over and a written notice period (often 30 to 90 days) applies. If you're within 14 days of signing an off-premises or distance sale, the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 give you a free exit.
