XCOM®: Enemy Within cancellation: frequently asked questions
Does canceling XCOM®: Enemy Within stop the charges immediately?
No. Canceling stops future renewals but you keep access until the end of the billing period you already paid for. After that date XCOM®: Enemy Within will not charge you again. If you were charged unexpectedly, request a refund separately.
Can I get a refund from XCOM®: Enemy Within?
Refunds are handled by Apple or Google, not by XCOM®: Enemy Within directly. On iPhone, go to reportaproblem.apple.com, sign in, find the XCOM®: Enemy Within charge and choose Request a refund. On Android, open the Play Store order history, select the purchase and tap Report a problem. Requests made within 48 hours are often approved automatically.
Why is XCOM®: Enemy Within still charging me after I canceled?
The most common causes: the cancellation did not finish (check that Subscriptions shows XCOM®: Enemy Within as Expired), you have a second subscription under a different Apple ID or Google account, or you canceled inside the app but not in the store where billing actually lives. Cancel it in the App Store subscription settings to be sure.
How do I delete my XCOM®: Enemy Within account?
Deleting your account is separate from canceling the subscription. To remove your data, delete the account inside the XCOM®: Enemy Within app settings first, then cancel the subscription in the App Store and uninstall the app. Canceling alone does not erase your account.
Will I lose access to XCOM®: Enemy Within right after I cancel?
No. You keep full access to XCOM®: Enemy Within until the paid period ends, so there is no benefit to waiting. Cancel as soon as you decide, and enjoy the remaining days you already paid for.
