Mayor provides a platform that allows users to access various digital services, and we understand that circumstances may arise affecting your account or subscription status.

Subscription Downgrade or Change: If a user downgrades their subscription plan but notices that the previous billing amount was charged incorrectly, they might be eligible for a refund on the difference.
Account Management Issues: If there’s an issue with your account that leads to an overcharge or billing misalignment with your chosen subscription plan, you could inquire about potential refund options.
Service Not Rendered: Users might seek refunds if a certain service promised as part of their subscription was not accessible or available during the billing cycle.
Promotional Terms Not Honored: If a user believes that a promotional offer was not applied correctly at the time of billing, this might be a scenario for requesting a refund for the applicable amount.
Please review your account situation carefully and reach out to our support team for further clarification regarding eligibility for refunds based on these specific scenarios.
