Hello Google Support,

I would like to request a refund for an accidental credit purchase on my Google AI Studio Billing account.

Billing Account ID: 01EDD2-759C5B-2FF..  
Amount: $30.00 USD  
Usage: The credits are completely unused — no API requests have been made and the balance is untouched.

This was a mistaken purchase. I would appreciate it if you could cancel this transaction and refund the amount to my original payment method.

Thank you for your help.

Hi @Mikky, Unfortunately, we are not able to provide any refunds for unused prepaid credits. Our refund policy is documented [here](https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/docs/billing#refunds).
