Refund Request for Unintended Charges Caused by Accidental Editor Seat Permissions

I sincerely request a refund for the additional seat charges that were unexpectedly billed due to accidental editor permissions assigned to team members who did not actually use Figma.

Our team intended to have only one designer subscribe to and use Figma. While the designer was sharing Figma files with other team members, some members were unintentionally added with editor permissions instead of the intended access level. As a result, additional seat charges appear to have been generated, even though those members did not actually use Figma.

The most important point is that only one person on our team actually used Figma. The other team members who were accidentally given editor access did not use Figma in practice, and we never intended to purchase or use additional paid editor seats.

We tried to address this issue as soon as we noticed it, but at that time the additional charge did not appear to have been processed yet, and we misunderstood how the billing/refund process would work. Now that the additional charge has actually been billed, we are submitting this refund request immediately.

We only intended to use one paid Figma account, and the additional seats were not intentionally used or purchased. Since these charges were unexpected and related to unused seats, we kindly ask you to review this case and issue a refund for the additional amount charged.

We are willing to provide any necessary information, including permission history, billing details, or usage records, if needed. We sincerely ask for your understanding and assistance in refunding the unused seat charges.

Thank you.

Hi ​@라고할때살걸


I understand that paid seats were unintentionally added and you are requesting a refund.

 

Unfortunately, we're unable to handle billing requests directly here on the Forum due to security and privacy concerns.

However, I can see that you already have a support ticket (#1926732) regarding this, and our team will be best placed to assist you there.

I'll add an internal note to your ticket to let the specialist know that you've also reached out here on the Forum, so hopefully they can prioritize your case.

 

In the meantime, this article might be helpful: There are additional charges in my Figma bill

To avoid accidental seat additions in the future, you might want to set your approval settings to manually approve new seats: Set approval settings for new seats


Since you're already connected with our support team in your dedicated ticket, I'll go ahead and close this topic to consolidate the communication in one place.

Please keep an eye on your ticket email for updates, and feel free to continue the conversation there.

 

Thanks!
