Itunes fraud

    Someone hacked into my daughter's I-Tunes account and used her credit in the account (from a giftcard) to download tracks. In fairness to I-Tunes, they replied fairly promptly and offered a full refund. The matter was sorted out quickly.

    However the fact that someone could get into her account and do this has put her off using I-Tunes in future.

    Hi Jools, The same has just happened to my I-Tunes account. Credit from a giftcard used by fraudulent purchases. Apple are refusing to offer a refund. How did you manage to get yours refunded. Its £10 worth, not a huge amount, but I was looking forward to purchasing some music today with the credit. Any tips on how to get through to Apple. All I am getting is website contact forms and useless email contact. Would be nice to speak to someone in person.
