All new customers are entitled to our 7 days money back guarantee. This means that if you want to cancel your seedbox, for any reason, within the first 7 days of your purchase, we will charge you only for the days you used the slot (or for the percentage of bandwidth used, whichever is bigger) and refund the rest.
