Account close & membership

I have 3 questions, (also, I'm not sure if I put this in the right topic)

Do you get a refund if you close your account?

Do you contact chess.com member support if you would like to open it back up?

And when you open it back up, is everything gonna be the exact same? You're in the same clubs, friends, or do they reset everything? 

(Please excuse any typos, I'm tying on a phone)

No. Unless you are a first time premium member, who bought the membership in the last 30 days, you don't get a refund.

Why close your account?

If you close your account, you have to write to support@chess.com to reopen it. I don't know what happens to friends and clubs.

Alright, thank you. I'm having a hard time focusing on my work irl and I feel like this is best for me.

When you close an account, you don't get a refund unless you specifically request it. https://support.chess.com/article/572-what-are-your-payment-policies-refunds-services-currency-etc

 

Friends and clubs remain the same, unless either remove you for being closed. It's not something the site does.

If you request a refund, you should get it for the unused portion of your membership as far as I'm aware. If you're still in the 30-day window, you should get a full refund.

You keep your friends and clubs as a matter of fact
