On September 9, 2021, Roblox launched an automated process for users to receive Robux back for items they had bought which had been deleted or otherwise moderated<ref>{{Cite web |title=Roblox Moderated Item Robux Policy |url=https://www.roblox.com/modcreditagreement/974158ba-99f0-4915-8fde-5b07b3cbbe09 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/aEZB0 |archive-date=22 Feb 2026}}</ref>. The Roblox company implemented this change after they got sued for first allowing items to be sold and then deleting them without compensating users that purchased said items<ref>{{Cite web |title=Doe v.

Until then, there was no refund method in place, meaning that if an item was deleted, Roblox would keep all of the profit they made of said item and sometimes all of the money made from selling said item if the creators account got terminated and the creator hadn't spent their Robux yet. | On September 9, 2021, Roblox launched an automated process for users to receive Robux back for items they had bought which had been deleted or otherwise moderated<ref>{{Cite web |title=Roblox Moderated Item Robux Policy |url=https://www.roblox.com/modcreditagreement/974158ba-99f0-4915-8fde-5b07b3cbbe09 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/aEZB0 |archive-date=22 Feb 2026}}</ref>.

== Forced arbitration == | |||
Roblox's Terms of Use states that the only way to opt out of forced arbitration is to send written notice to Roblox with 30 days of signing up for the first time. Future changes to their Arbitration Agreement may only be opted out if an additional written opt-out notice is sent within 30 days after Roblox provides notice of such changes. The written notice must be sent by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (or international equivalent), as stated in section 13.b.ix of their Terms of Use.<ref>{{Cite web |date=30 Apr 2026 |title=Roblox Terms of Use |url=https://en.help.roblox.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004647846-Roblox-Terms-of-Use |url-status=live |access-date=14 May 2026 |website=Roblox}}</ref> | |||
