New Refund Feature is live!

Posted on at 7:21 PM by Moobeat
The new refund feature is live and available for use within the client! No more emailing support when you accidentally purchase a skin or change your mind on that latest legendary purchase. Granted this feature is currently restricted to THREE uses per account, it's sure to ease the load of Riot Support.
Continue reading for the full post on details of the system and some red posts relating to it.

Here is the full post from Hippalus:
"Our new self-service refunds on champions and skins are now available in the League of Legends Store. In lieu of emailing Player Support and having to wait for a reply, each account now has three refund credits available over the course of its lifetime. The next time you misclick, suffer from a moment of mistaken identity, or come down with a terrible case of buyer’s remorse, you can cash in one of your credits for a no-questions -asked refund.
Here’s how refunding a champion or skin works:
  • Visit the Purchases tab of the League of Legends Store
  • On the far right under Action, select the Refund button
  • When the popup appears, confirm that you want to spend one of your three allotted credits
  • Enjoy your refund
Now, there are a few limitations on how you can use your self-service refunds. You’ll find all the caveats, addendums, and fine print outlined below:
  • You only get three refunds per account, per lifetime
  • You can only refund skins and champions, not runes, boosts, or bundles
  • We can only refund a purchase that you’ve made in the last 90 days, so no hocking last year’s promotional skins back to us!
  • If you own a champion and some of their skins, you need to return the skins before you can get a refund on the champion
So there you have it, summoners. The next time you find yourself in dire need of an instant refund, we’ve got you covered. We’ll see you all out there on the Fields of Justice."

Here are some relevant red posts,by Hippalus, to the subject:

 [On the possibility of players gaining additional refund tokens]:"I can't make any promises but it wouldn't surprise me if we gave additional tokens a year from now to players who had been playing since the release of this feature and had good in-game behavior since then."

[On refunding a bundle]: "You can't refund bundles using the tool but if you have refund tokens available, contact Players Support at support.leagueoflegends.com with the Subject "Bundle Refund Request", and they will process your refund and remove one refund token from your account."

    3. Hey his idea might not have been that good but at least with his "500" RP to be able to at least refund a 975 RP does give more back

    4. What if you wanted to refund your refund tokens that you bought with RP?

    5. It's kinda dumb, but RIOT will make everything for money :]
      It's not even worth it
      Nobodys gonna buy it, refund credit cost more than champion which I Could buy accidently
      Sounds pathetic, shouldn't make it

    1. Buy a legendary skin, hate it, buy a 500 RP token to refund yourself 1800 RP. Its stupid sounding but it technically works out. You just sort of waste 500 RP in this example on a stupid buy.

  10. If you ask me, Refund Credits should be awarded once per 3 months if you have nothing bad on your record to promote good behaviour.

  17. 3 in a lifetime? That's to little... and I think very many agree with that!
    We have already purchased for the skin/champ and if we changes our mind and dont want that skin/champ any more, it would be more than fair to give us more opportunity to give back things and earn RP/IP on it, cause the "damage" is already done and Riot don't lose anything on it. It's not like they have to give the money back to us, they just need to give us a higher count of RP/IP with numbers in rerurn.

    1. I think it would be better if they did this refund every year instead of 3 in a lifetime.. it's many skins that i regret that I bought. :(

      Delete
    2. Yeah, shows how greedy they are, at least this should reset with a new season, a shame.

      Delete
    3. Yes they should give everything free so we can try it, and should pay us for spending so much hours playing "their" game... -_- you don't know anything about bussines, they are already loosing money with this feature...just gtfo

    1. I overthink my purchases. Even then sometimes I make bad ones, so this is nice for the times when I know it was an absolutely terrible decision (like when I bought leblanc, so I've refunded her).

    1. Everyone by default is allowed to get 1 refund and 1 refund only if you message player service/support.

      I think they might discontinue that since they have an in-game refund feature, but only time will tell. You got your refund before the system came into place so of course you still have 3 credits.

    2. I know, but i just think I am bit lucky :D
