Frequently asked questions
How do I complain to Adobe?
The most effective way is a formal written complaint letter that cites the specific consumer protection laws that apply to your situation. Verbal complaints are easy to ignore — a letter citing FTC Negative Option Rule creates a legal record Adobe must respond to.
Can I get my money back from Adobe?
Yes. Under FTC Negative Option Rule, you have legal rights when Adobe wrongfully charges you or refuses a refund. If Adobe ignores your complaint, you can escalate to Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
