Contact the Google Play support using this form:
Submit a refund request online - You’ll usually get a decision within 15 minutes, but it can take up to two business days.
- If you didn't request a refund within 48 hours
If you for some reason didn't make a refund within 48 hours using any of the above guides, you are still welcome to contact us and tell us why you want a refund. Remember that in order to be able to refund you, we need the ordernumber of your purchase. You will find it in the purchase receipt email from Google Play. It has the following format GPA.XXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXX where the X:s represents numbers. App developers cannot identify orders without the ordernumber, so if you cannot find it, please contact the Google Play support instead: Submit a refund request online
We have noticed that some users believe that they can get a refund just by writing the word "refund" in the app rating/review. This is of course not realistic, since we have to know exactly which order that belongs to that particular user, and the only way is by using the ordernumber.
