This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Refunds are a matter for individual consumers and businesses, not the Government or House of Commons.

The Competition and Markets Authority has said that where a consumer receives regular services in exchange for a regular payment as part of an ongoing contract, consumers will normally be entitled to a refund for any services they have already paid for but that are not provided by the business or which the consumer is not allowed to use because of lockdown laws. This may be a partial refund of the total amount the consumer has already paid, to reflect the value of the services already provided: www.gov.uk/government/publications/cma-to-investigate-concerns-about-cancellation-policies-during-the-coronavirus-covid-19-pandemic/the-coronavirus-covid-19-pandemic-consumer-contracts-cancellation-and-refunds#ongoing-contracts
