Unfortunately, no. There is no refund or purchase protection with friends and family payments as it is considered a gift payment which is why all the recipient has to do is block you and disappear. Anytime you are sending money in exchange for something, send as goods and services.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
