There is no refund for a cancelled Domain Name. There is no prorata refund for Dedicated Server, Managed Server, Virtual Private Server, Cloud Hosting or WordPress Hosting services which have been cancelled during the billing period.

If you do not wish to continue your service or hosting with Auzzie.Biz, or do not wish to renew your domain name, it is your responsibility to contact Auzzie.Biz through your Control Panel at https://auzzie.com/clients/ to cancel your account or domain name.

Transferring a domain to a new hosting company does not constitute canceling an account with Auzzie.Biz.

All cancellation requests must be submitted using the Control Panel. You will need to indicate when you would like to cancel the account and if you are keeping the ownership of the domain name that Auzzie.Biz registered for you. If you do not indicate that you would like to cancel the domain renewal your account will automatically be modified to the Auzzie.Biz Domain Name Only Account for all future domain management. This change will cancel all hosting services but leave your Auzzie.Biz account open for the domain renewal.

Setup fees and domain registration fees are not refundable.

Account name changes

There is a AU$25 fee to change the primary domain of an account.

Antifraud Check

Customer purchase can be suspended for manual antifraud check for 10-20 minutes as well as it can be suspended for longer term (around 20 hours) for more serious investigation. Antifraud check occurs because of growing number of fraud transactions from persons who are not actual cardholders of the credit cards used during purchase.

Billing policies & prices

We reserve the right to change our policies or prices at any time. Prices are guaranteed for the period of pre-payment only and are shown in AU$.
