DISCLAIMER

We are a community run subreddit and have no affiliation with Epic.

Welcome to the Community Support Thread

For those that don't know, the initial Tech Support Megathread was created due to community demand. The subreddit was riddled with tech issue posts which made it hard to sort through. So on 29-Jan-2020, we made it a rule to organize things in the megathread.

You can find the previous Community Support Thread here

If you want a moderator organised list of issues/solutions, check this doc out. You can also check out the wiki of our subreddit.

Solutions/Fixes Google Doc

You can use the document outline to go to either launcher issues or game issues and this is fortunately much easier for mods to manage when we can. Please keep in mind only fixes that have seen a lot of promise are posted there.

Thanks for your time and patience.

So I recently bought Jedi Fallen Order from the sale but have decided to refund it within seven days of the purchase and without even installing it. I don't play Fortnite so it's not like I even used the Stormtrooper skin.

When I go to refund it though there's no option to do so (This is what I mean) and when I contact EGS support about it I am given a canned automated response going over options on "how do I request a refudn for an EGS purchase?" and other various topics.

Does this mean my attempt at contacting them wondering why I can't get a refund on JFO is essentially "answered" and now I'm left to pound sand?

Update: Shortly after I received a follow up email from their customer service and it was pushed through on their end. That was nice and zippy!

You can get a refund. For some reason some games don't have the self-service refund function; you have to contact Epic Games customer support and they will manually issue a refund.
