How is the returns & refunds of AccuWeather?
AccuWeather's returns and refunds policy has drawn 16 negative mentions and only 1 positive mention across 19 reviews. The sentiment is overwhelmingly negative, with low star ratings in 2024 and 2025, including multiple 1-star reviews. A single 5-star review in August 2026 did not change the overall trend. Most users report being denied refunds or experiencing significant delays in resolving issues. AccuWeather's handling of refunds and service cancellations remains a persistent problem, especially when features are removed or services fail to deliver as promised.
What customers praise
AccuWeather’s premium subscription costs $4.99 per month and includes accurate rain tracking and ad-free access. One reviewer said the service is worth the price, especially compared to alternatives. These positive comments are limited and do not represent the overall experience with refunds or cancellations.
What customers said:
- „I may have missed my year renewal and had adds unexpectedly before“
Common complaints
Users commonly complain that AccuWeather does not issue refunds for services not delivered or features removed without notice. Many report being locked into subscriptions after losing access to core functionality like multi-device widgets. Users say AccuWeather fails to honor cancellation requests or respond in a timely manner, leaving them without refunds.
What customers said:
- „MONTHS LATER AND STILL SAME LOST FEATURES.“
How it has changed over time
The issue remains unresolved. The company has not improved refund handling despite repeated complaints. Positive ratings in 2026 appear isolated, with no sign of systemic change. 1-star reviews continue to reflect unchanged customer service and refund policies.
What customers said:
- „I may have missed my year renewal and had adds unexpectedly before“
Practical takeaways
If you're considering a subscription, act quickly if issues arise. Avoid long-term commitments if you're unsure about reliability. Canceling often leads to delays or silence from AccuWeather, so follow up persistently. Use a payment method with strong dispute protection in case a refund is denied.
What customers said:
- „I paid for this app about 5 years ago.“
