How To Unpurchase An App
With all the amount of purchases that happen every minute on iTunes and every other online store, it is impossible not to see someone that will ask for an unpurchase or refund. You will like it if your purchase is reversed without going through any hardship or waiting for many hours. I also like it that way.

This does not mean that you cannot request a refund; you just have to provide a genuine reason for the request.
