I had some issues with paypal on Monday trying to get their monday deal so I decided to just use my CC directly and... the price reset to 25 bucks on me and no way in hell do I want to pay that much for any bundle so I already emailed them several times and no response as of yet. Contacted my CC right away on monday and they told me they can do a chargeback at any time but I wanted to see if I could get it resolved in IG first.

I had something similar happen with a Humble Bundle and they refunded me in less than a day no problems whatsoever. Dissapointed IndieGala's support is this... nonexistent. I mean not even an email saying no you are screwed we won't refund you.

Monday. Over 4 days ago.

I mean the problem at this stage is if I go forth with a chargeback will they ban my account or something. I haven't touched the bundle waiting for the refund and I've bought a bunch of bundles before so... you'd think they could cut me some slack.

One of the reasons I got surprised with the amount I got charged is there was no confirmation screen like you'd see with paypal. I entered the CC info and I got charged right away. I only found out the amount once I checked the email my CC sent me.

IG has taken up to a week to handle a refund request for me.

That works I can wait a week for it. Good to know they do refund you though. Heck I can wait 2-3 weeks and then do the chargeback without paying any interest on it due to the grace period so I can afford to be patient.

I usually got a response if not after few hours, a pair of days later.

I'll let you know how it turns out. So far though... no response. I'll send yet another email.

If you already sent several e-mails I fail to see what yet another one will achieve. 30 minutes before this you said you could afford to be patient...

Continuously flooding them with e-mails is more likely to mark you as an annoying teenager who forgot to check the amount before hitting confirm on their parents credit card...

Dude I've been super patient because I can afford to be. Worst comes to worst I'll just chargeback in a week or two. I sent them 3 emails in a 5 day span I don't think that quite equates with a flood.

I just got an email from IG and they asked me for the paypal transaction id for a refund or if I wanted 'store credit'... yeah right. The thing is I didn't use paypal, these guys obviously didn't read my emails.

Already sent them the CC info lets see how much longer it takes to get this refund processed. Good thing I got at least 2 more weeks on my grace period.

I really think they had a big issue with this latest bundle overcharging people the 25 dollars since they changed it on this week's monday bundle (which I bought) since that just defaults to 1 dollar more than the minimum. If it had done that for me on last weeks bundle I would have let it slide.

Yes. I used a wrong payment method to pay for a bundle, and then used a correct method to pay again. I asked IG to refund the first payment, and they did it around two weeks later after I sent about 4 emails.

Now that sounds similar to my experience... going on 1 week and a half so far.

Just keep emailing them and explaining to them you want a refund because for X reason you got charged the 25... also uploaded images of the receipt they sent me. Worked for me... eventually.

I haven't had a problem with IndieGala, but I recently had one with Nuuvem about a week ago. Still no response xD
I'm about ready to just assume every site had a "All sales are final, if you have a problem OH WELL, TOO BAD" mentality and just not bother with them anymore.

If you are not going to bother with them anymore just get a refund from paypal or your CC... charge it back.

I've got refund from them (after entering price with , instead of . in it my page got reset and payment proceeded - I ended up buying wrong bundle and not even reaching BTA for it (I paid 4.19, BTA for this other bundle was 5$)). Took them 3-4 days to reply to my email. Got refunded in 1.5 week ;later. Slow but at least got it. So just wait for now ;)

Emailed them again through their website. It's a delight getting lied to. Funny how your card gets charged at the very moment you make the purchase but the 'refund' never shows up.

Alright just checked right now and I got refunded 23 bucks... guess I did buy the bundle after all haha. That was my intention all along. I wanted that Tomb of Tyrants game from the bundle, the rest was basically not so hot.

Damn that took forever.

Let's just say this should get me to double and triple check the amount I enter before buying any bundle from now on.

I bought a game from indiegala, waiting for the email with the key I got an email stating they discovered suspicious activity on my transaction and they had to review it instead. 2 days later my CC was charged the money but I never got any email with the game key....wtf do I do?
