How to Cancel PistonHeads and Get a Refund

- 2Tap your name at the top of the screen to open your Apple ID.
- 3Tap Subscriptions to see every app that bills you through Apple.
- 4Find PistonHeads in the list and tap it. If it is not there, you may have subscribed through the app itself or a different Apple ID.

PistonHeads cancellation: frequently asked questions
Does canceling PistonHeads 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 PistonHeads will not charge you again. If you were charged unexpectedly, request a refund separately.
Can I get a refund from PistonHeads?
Refunds are handled by Apple or Google, not by PistonHeads directly. On iPhone, go to reportaproblem.apple.com, sign in, find the PistonHeads 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 PistonHeads still charging me after I canceled?
The most common causes: the cancellation did not finish (check that Subscriptions shows PistonHeads 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 Google Play subscription settings to be sure.
How do I delete my PistonHeads account?
Deleting your account is separate from canceling the subscription. To remove your data, delete the account inside the PistonHeads app settings first, then cancel the subscription in the Google Play and uninstall the app. Canceling alone does not erase your account.
Will I lose access to PistonHeads right after I cancel?
No. You keep full access to PistonHeads 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.
