Will I get a refund?

Official Flightradar24 position

Flightradar24’s Help Center and Terms do not state a clear refund policy or a specific “14‑day cooling‑off” refund right for New Zealand users.

Practical outcomes and exceptions

• There is no explicit 14‑day withdrawal right for digital content once accessed under Flightradar24’s documentation.
• User reports indicate refunds may be denied even when cancelling shortly after renewal, citing the service T&Cs and applicable laws.
• If you purchased via Apple or Google, those platforms may handle refund requests - contact them directly for platform refunds.

Your consumer rights in New Zealand

Relevant laws

New Zealand consumer protection is primarily through the Consumer Guarantees Act (CGA) and the Fair Trading Act.

How they apply to digital services

• Digital services must be fit for purpose and as described under New Zealand law.
• The CGA does not automatically grant a 14‑day withdrawal right for digital content once the content or service is accessed.
• Refunds are generally available if the service is faulty, misrepresented, or fails to meet guarantees; routine cancellations do not automatically entitle you to a refund.

Customer experiences

Positive feedback

Some users praise the Silver plan and specific features such as extended flight history, calling them valuable for frequent flyers and enthusiasts.

Common complaints

• Many users report intrusive advertisements in the free app, including full‑screen ads and obstructive side panels.
• Reports of app glitches, delayed or inaccurate flight updates, and issues after product changes (for example, lifetime subscriptions being discontinued).
• Instances of users reporting denied refund requests and unexpected or unauthorized charges originating from adverts.

Documentation checklist

What to gather before you cancel

• Account email or username used with Flightradar24.
• Order receipt or payment confirmation (from App Store, Google Play or web invoice).
• Subscription platform (Apple, Google Play, or flightradar24.com) and billing date.

What to keep after cancellation

• Confirmation of cancellation (screenshot or email).
• Invoices for any paid periods you want to keep for your records.
• Any correspondence with Flightradar24 support or platform support regarding refunds or disputes.

Common mistakes

Cancelling but leaving auto‑renew enabled

Some users believe tapping “cancel” immediately stops access; if you don’t confirm auto‑renewal is turned off, you may still be charged at the next cycle.

Contacting the wrong support channel

Users sometimes ask Flightradar24 for refunds when the purchase was made through Apple or Google. Platform purchases are often controlled by Apple/Google billing policies, so contact the platform first for refunds.
