Requesting a refund of unused Gemini API prepaid credit.
- Google account: g...@gmail.com
- Billing account: gchgcvn (ID: 0175A3-E3DA3F-6B0C..)
- Payments profile: 9606-3114-85..
- Amount: ₹1,000, prepaid via UPI on 29 July 2026
- Credit balance: ₹1,000.00 — FULLY UNUSED (no API calls billed to this account)
Reason: This billing account cannot be used. Google’s verification requires
ORGANIZATION registration documents (Certificate of incorporation / GST / VAT /
Society / Trust / Partnership deed). I am an individual student and have none of
these, and the payments profile account type (Organization) cannot be changed to
Individual after creation. So the account is permanently frozen (“Your business
information could not be verified”) and I cannot use the credit I paid for.
Since the credit is 100% unused and the account is blocked by Google’s own
verification requirement that I cannot satisfy, I request a full refund of ₹1,000
to the original UPI payment method.
