Service policy

Cancellation and Refund Policy

Last updated 12 September 2026

Before work begins

A client may cancel for a full refund before evidence collection or professional review has started. Approved refunds are returned to the original PayPal payment method.

After work begins

Each review is prepared for a specific journal. Once work has started, cancellation is not automatically refundable. We will assess any request fairly based on the work completed and any recoverable costs.

If we cannot deliver

If we cannot deliver the agreed review for reasons within our control, the client may choose a revised delivery date or a full refund.

Corrections are not a new purchase

Factual errors within the agreed scope will be corrected without charge when reported promptly. One focused re-check of publisher corrections is included within 90 days.

Indexing decisions

A refusal, delay or other decision by an indexing organisation is not grounds for a refund. The purchased service is the independent readiness review, not an indexing outcome.

How to request a cancellation or refund

Email billing@jqcreview.com, or reply to the quotation, PayPal Business invoice or order-confirmation message. Include the request reference so we can locate the order promptly. We will acknowledge the request and communicate the decision and any refund timing in writing.

Mandatory cancellation or refund rights that apply under the client’s local law are not restricted by this policy.
Journal Quality & Compliance

Evidence-backed journal readiness review.

Journal Quality & Compliance is operated by Batiha Scientific Publishing Corporation Inc. Its reviews are independent of DOAJ, Elsevier/Scopus and Clarivate/Web of Science; it is not affiliated with or endorsed by those organisations and does not guarantee or predict an indexing decision.
