Has anyone successfully had a refund from PlayStation?

So my DS has spent £45 on V bucks (fortnite) and bought himself loads of new items 😩

I've emailed PlayStation hoping they will refund but as he's gone and bought stuff what is the likelihood they will?

Pretty much zero, sorry. It's your responsibility to make sure this doesn't happen!

No chance of a refund I'm afraid. Never leave a payment method like a credit card on the account as it is so easy for the kids to spend money.

Sorry that's sounds but just. I meant to add based on my experience sadly. Sneaky kids!

The advert that’s at the bottom of the page seems to be trying to give you mean ideas about how to get your money back from your DS...Grin

They do, sometimes; refund. You usually have to have applied all the parental controls so that this can't happen again, then it's luck of the draw.

Are you sure it was him?
I had £350 refunded from Xbox after ds's account was hacked
100% sure initially as ds was on a bus to dgm's at the time of purchases and Xbox confirmed the address used was absolutely miles away!!
Unless you got a full confession......

Doesnt it allow you to claim back 3 mistake spends? Or is that once you've submitted the money?

Contact fortnite. ROBLOX refunded us but closed down the account too. Worked as a good lesson all round!

I stupidly left my account details on it 😩 He's only 7 so I'm not sure whether he knew what he was doing probably did the demon at least it wasn't the £79.99 one I suppose!

My friend made a successful claim. Can't remember how much but it does work x

Yes and a much bigger sum than has been mentioned here
