What to do if you had an account
- Use only the firm's official channels (its own website, support email or verified social accounts) for any notice about refunds or payouts. Be wary of anyone who contacts you offering to "recover" money for a fee.
- Keep records: receipts, your account or login ID, emails from the firm, and screenshots of your dashboard and of any closure notice.
- If you paid by card or through a payment provider, your card issuer or provider may have a dispute process. These often have time limits, so ask them early.
