Tips & Things to Know

  • Abstract shut down in 2023, so any charges are likely billing errors - act urgently and don't wait for slow support.
  • Export all design files immediately whilst you can access your account; platform data may become permanently inaccessible.
  • Your bank will support chargeback disputes for a defunct service; escalate quickly if support is unresponsive.

Your Consumer Rights

  • Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, you're protected against charges for services no longer provided.
  • US users: FTC prohibits unauthorised recurring charges; report at reportfraud.ftc.gov if Abstract refuses refunds.
