  2. When I open my order history it lists the game, the date and how much they charged you. No dots, no way of opening it, no report a problem button, nothing. Now what?

    • Just open this link from your Pc: https://play.google.com/store/account and login to your Google play account, Once logged in. Scroll down the page you’ll find the Tab called “Order history“. Thats where all your orders listed and with the refund option. You can find the report problem form by click the three dots right next to the app or game you want to refund!
