Please forgive my last message. I thought you were someone else I know who definitely lives in Australia.

However, it seems that after a justified refund of an iOS app, now in progress, which I explicitly indicated was for accessibility reasons, my account is in the blacklisted state and I can no longer buy apps without waving my rights (which I’m fairly sure verges on the illegal if not actually). If you are hoping, as I was, that this refund process might help you rightfully return digital products that are not fit for purpose because they are inaccessible, you might have to think again. I’d just arranged things to make more use of this feature, by turning off automatic downloads and removing every app from my devices and iTunes, with the intention of testing every incoming app and ultimately ending up only with those apps which should justifiably be on my devices and on my account because they were accessible. Sadly, this doesn’t seem to be possible now. I of course think it should. We shouldn’t be paying for apps which aren’t accessible, merely because it’s easy to do so and hard to avoid. I’ll let you know if my account ever ceases to be blacklisted. If you have any information, let me know. It’s entirely possible the normal state of affairs will resume after my outstanding refund is complete, but I’d love to hear if anyone else has had this issue after just two refunds.
