UPDATE -
THEY HAVE REFUNDED ME!!
I emailed them this yesterday -
1. If the pack mentions it was for free, how come I was charged for it? I have PlayStation Plus activated for years.
2. What do you’ll mean “it is applied to my account?” Give an elaborate explanation regarding this.
3. The red box marked in the screenshot is your legal info. These words clearly mention it is claimed once I start the game and go to a specific “section within the game” itself, then only it is applied!
4. I have never downloaded or played this game, so how can you’ll say “it is applied?”
You’ll are not following your own terms and conditions. You’ll are contradicting your own rules.
Just because this is India, this is how PlayStation runs things? Overstepping on customers, not following your own terms and conditions?
For a simple refund you’ll are making this into a big issue!!

This is their reply via email -
This is in reference to your e-mail dated 15/05/2023.
In accordance with your email, we would like to inform you that you does have the game Neverwinter on this account.
However, in this instance, we have now refunded the add-on as a good will gesture.
We would like to inform you that Rs 80,00 have been returned to your card. The funds may take up to 5 working days to appear on your credit/debit card statement. This delay is entirely dependent on how quickly your bank processes the refund.
Rs 502 have been returned to the account wallet instead, as you used funds from a voucher top up to pay for part of this purchase.

The amount may have been small, but that doesn’t mean a corporation can go back on their own terms and conditions, overstep on customers and take them for a ride.
I wouldn’t have bothered so much If it was for a game I’d actually play, they triggered me with the way they replied and handled it.
Hopefully this sets an example that it can be done, if you have all valid proof etc presented.
I believe making enough noise on social media is the only solution currently. Really hope they improve for their own sake.
