Fair and Transparent Refund Policy
At Unitch, we strive to provide exceptional streaming service and customer satisfaction. This Return and Refund Policy outlines the circumstances under which refunds may be granted and the process for requesting them.
Last Updated: July 2025
1. Understanding Digital Services
Digital Content: Unitch provides digital streaming services, including access to movies, TV shows, documentaries, and other video content through subscription plans.
Nature of Service: Unlike physical products, our digital streaming service is consumed immediately upon access and cannot be "returned" in the traditional sense.
Subscription Model: Our services operate on a subscription basis with recurring billing cycles (monthly or annual).
2. General Refund Policy
No Standard Refunds: Due to the digital nature of our streaming service, we generally do not provide refunds for subscription fees once charged.
Service Consumption: Once you have access to our content library, the service is considered delivered and consumed.
Subscription Continuation: After cancellation, you retain access to the service until the end of your current billing period.
- Monthly subscriptions: Access continues until the end of the month
- Annual subscriptions: Access continues until the end of the year
- No partial refunds for unused portions of billing periods
- Cancelled subscriptions will not auto-renew for the next period
3. Exceptional Refund Circumstances
We may consider refunds in the following exceptional circumstances:
- Technical Issues: Prolonged service outages or technical problems preventing access to content
- Billing Errors: Incorrect charges due to system errors or processing mistakes
