What to Do If Charged Incorrectly

If you see a charge from CENTR that seems incorrect, we'll help you verify the charge and resolve any errors.

Common "Incorrect Charge" Scenarios

1. Charged Wrong Amount

  • Expected monthly ($29.99) but charged annual ($159-179.99)
  • Charged more than subscription price shown
  • Multiple charges on same day
  • Amount doesn't match any CENTR pricing

2. Charged When You Shouldn't Be

  • Cancelled but still charged
  • Never signed up but see CENTR charge
  • Trial ended early
  • Charged during trial period

3. Duplicate Charges

  • Charged twice on same day
  • Two CENTR charges same billing period
  • Pending and posted charge both showing

Verification Steps Before Contacting Support

Step 1: Verify the Charge

  • Check exact charge amount and date
  • Confirm it says "CENTR" or "CENTR LLC"
  • Check if charge is pending or posted
  • Look for any similar charges

Step 2: Check Your Subscription

  • Apple: Settings → Subscriptions → Check if CENTR is active and pricing
  • Google: Play Store → Subscriptions → Check CENTR status
  • Web: Check email receipts or contact [email protected]

Step 3: Verify Sales Tax

Some charges may be higher due to sales tax:

  • Base price + tax = actual charge
  • Tax varies by location
  • Example: $29.99 + $2.40 tax = $32.39 total

Step 4: Check for Multiple Subscriptions

You might have subscriptions on multiple platforms:

  • Check Apple subscriptions
  • Check Google Play subscriptions
  • Check web subscription status
  • May have subscribed under different emails

Handling Duplicate Charges

If you see two identical CENTR charges:

Pending vs Posted

  • Correct plan can be set up if desired
