I shall be keeping a closer eye on the balance, and making sure that when they say they've refunded me, it's actually appeared in my balance.
I feel bad for you, but I've had no $ problems with Kobo (Canada store).

I've constantly kept an eye (and a saved text file) on my balances. I've only asked for a refund once or twice, and perhaps I have had to wait a few days longer than I would've liked... but I haven't had problems yet with correct $ credit balances.

I always keep money in my account, because I detest paying lots of tiny charges on my credit card.

Separate categories for sci-fi and fantasy (and another for fantasy romances). Good.

Yeah, my spouse is interested in some of the fantasy romances. For me, the problem is that I already have many of the books though I may take a flyer on a few that sound interesting. The ones we are looking at all seem to be in Kobo Plus so nothing but time to lose.

I notice that one book I previously bought on Kindle (because it was KDP select exclusive at the time) now available on Kobo Plus. Not going to repurchase but gives me a little hope.

I’ve seen a lot of authors who are upset about the latest Amazon changes (mostly the AI book summaries, but also the DRM a little) who finally got fed up enough to leave KU and go to Kobo.

A lot are still staying in KU, but many are not which is nice.

Although Kobo’s search still SUCKS, so hopefully that and the recommendations will get better with more data.

Author is Canadian, so may be also the Buy Canadian (or "buy anywhere except U.S.") movement.
