Run a lessons review of a dispute that has ended. What happened and how it ended: [DISPUTE_AND_OUTCOME]. What worked: [WHAT_WORKED]. What I wish I had done earlier: [REGRETS]. Costs in money and hours: [COSTS].

Ask me up to six questions, one at a time, about the warning signs I missed, how I chose the provider, what I did or did not read before agreeing, how I documented things, and what I would ask for first next time. Then produce a one-page review: a timeline of key decision points, three things to repeat, three things to change, a short pre-purchase checklist for similar situations (read cancellation and refund terms, save the page, pay by a method with protection, note the dates), and a list of five template documents I should keep ready. Add a final paragraph for the file and a calendar reminder to review related contracts annually.

Be balanced and kind; avoid blaming me or the other party.

This is not legal advice. Quote no statute from memory. Use [JURISDICTION] and [RELEVANT_LAW_OR_POLICY_IF_KNOWN] as given. Say when to see a professional. Stay firm, factual and polite.

Timeline decision points: paid deposit in full (day 1); signed without reading cancellation clause (day 1); no written scope (day 5); first complaint 3 weeks later (day 26).
Repeat: used a card with dispute protection; kept messages in one place.
Change: ask for a written scope; pay in stages; note the dates when something slips.
Checklist before paying: read cancellation terms; screenshot the page; pay by card; ask for a written quote; put key dates in the calendar.
Final paragraph for the file: 'The dispute ended in a 60 percent refund after nine weeks. The main lesson is to agree scope in writing and to complain within a week, not three.'
