About RefundPe

RefundPe automates the process of filing consumer complaints for refunds in India. Users describe the issue and attach proof, after which the tool drafts a professional grievance letter citing the Consumer Protection Act, 2019. The letter is sent from a private address on behalf of the user and copied to them. If no response is received within four days, a reminder is sent. If the issue remains unresolved, a final notice is issued around day seven, with a copy sent to the relevant regulator such as the RBI Ombudsman, DGCA, TRAI, IRDAI or the National Consumer Helpline. The process continues until the refund is confirmed. The tool is designed for common refund scenarios including failed UPI payments, undelivered orders, cancelled travel bookings, insurance claim delays and telecom overbilling.

Frequently asked questions about RefundPe

Is RefundPe really free to use?

Yes. Drafting the grievance letter, sending it, tracking replies, and escalating the complaint are all provided at no cost. RefundPe does not take a percentage of any refund recovered.

How long does it usually take to get a refund after using RefundPe?

Most companies respond to a written grievance within 3 to 7 working days. RefundPe sends a reminder on day 4 and a final notice with the regulator copied around day 7 if the issue remains unresolved.

Which types of complaints can RefundPe handle?

Failed UPI payments, duplicate debits, wrong or damaged orders, undelivered products, cancelled flights or trains, hotel cancellations, insurance claim delays, telecom overbilling, and any refund a company is withholding.

Who receives the grievance emails sent by RefundPe on my behalf?

The company’s grievance officer is contacted first, and you are copied on every email. If unresolved, a final notice is sent with the relevant regulator such as RBI Ombudsman, DGCA, TRAI, IRDAI, or the National Consumer Helpline.

Does RefundPe mention consumer law in the grievance letters?

Yes. The first letter cites the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, which helps route the complaint to the company’s grievance desk rather than a standard support queue.

Can I edit the grievance letter before it is sent?

Yes. You can review, modify the subject, wording, company name, and email address before approving and sending the letter. Nothing is sent until you press Send.
