If you are not satisfied with the Service, your sole and exclusive remedy is to discontinue your use of the Service. If you cancel your subscription for a specific Premium Service, you will not receive a refund or reimbursement of your subscription Fee, prorated or otherwise; however, you will not be charged any future subscription Fees relating to such Service.

The Technical Traders is under no obligation to issue any refund for any reason, nor are we under any obligation to hold your account for an extended leave or vacation, but may do so at its sole discretion.
Some Services may provide a guaranteed offer. If such an offer is provided, only one per person or household is allowed at any given point in time. In addition, there is a limit of one guarantee per person and household in any given twenty-four month period.
E. Transfer; Discontinuing a Service
You cannot transfer your subscription to someone else, except through bequeathment or by a court order. In the event a subscription is transferred, it will continue through the end of its term and can be renewed at the then-current price and conditions. For assistance in this situation, please contact the Client Care Team. In the event that we discontinue a Service, you agree that Technical Traders Ltd. may transfer your subscription to another Service of equal or greater value.
