How to cancel Viddyoze and recover your subscription fees in the UAE
What Viddyoze is and why you might cancel
Viddyoze is a cloud-based video animation platform that provides motion templates and rendering tools for content creators, marketers, and social media professionals. You access the service through a web dashboard or mobile app, and your billing occurs either directly through Viddyoze or via third-party app stores, depending on where you signed up. The platform positions itself as an affordable alternative to hiring professional designers, but many subscribers discover that the service does not align with their actual workflow or budget expectations.
If you have subscribed to Viddyoze and now wish to cancel, you hold strong consumer protections under UAE consumer law. At Yafee (yafee.com), we specialise in helping subscribers navigate cancellation procedures across SaaS platforms, understand their refund rights, and enforce those rights when companies resist. This guide walks you through every cancellation method available to you, explains your legal position under UAE consumer protection law, and shows you how to recover fees where applicable.
Why timing matters in subscription cancellations
Every day you remain subscribed, another billing cycle risk accumulates. If Viddyoze charges you monthly, each passing week erodes your ability to claim a cooling-off refund or dispute charges through your payment provider. The UAE Consumer Protection Law grants you a 14-day cooling-off period from the date of purchase; once that window closes, your refund options narrow significantly. Acting today protects both your current month's fee and future charges.
How your subscription source determines your cancellation path
Your cancellation method depends entirely on where you purchased your subscription. If you subscribed directly on Viddyoze's website using a credit card, you cancel through your Viddyoze account settings. If you subscribed via Apple App Store, you cancel through your Apple account. If you subscribed via Google Play, you cancel through Google Play's subscription management interface. Identifying your subscription source is your first task because each platform has different cancellation procedures, refund policies, and dispute timelines.
Understanding your consumer rights in the UAE
Your right to cancel Viddyoze and claim a refund is rooted in UAE consumer protection law, specifically the Consumer Protection Law (Federal Law No. 24 of 2006 and its amendments). This legislation grants you explicit cancellation rights and cooling-off periods that Viddyoze must honour.
Your legal position under UAE consumer law
Under the Consumer Protection Law, you have the right to cancel any distance contract (which includes online subscriptions) within 14 calendar days of purchase without providing a reason. A "distance contract" is one made without face-to-face contact, such as any subscription purchased online. Viddyoze cannot charge you a cancellation fee, require you to complete the full billing period, or impose penalties for exercising this right. Furthermore, if Viddyoze has already charged you beyond the 14-day window, you can still dispute the charge through your payment provider or escalate the matter to the UAE Ministry of Economy (the consumer protection authority).
If Viddyoze fails to process your cancellation request within 30 days of receipt, or if the company ignores your cancellation altogether, you can lodge a formal complaint with the Ministry of Economy, which has the power to levy fines and compel refunds. Yafee (yafee.com) recommends keeping all cancellation communications (emails, screenshots, receipts) because these form the evidence base for any dispute or escalation.
What happens if Viddyoze refuses to cancel
If Viddyoze denies your cancellation request or claims you are ineligible for a refund, do not accept that response as final. Document the refusal in writing. Contact your payment provider (your bank or credit card company) and file a chargeback or dispute claim within the timeframe your payment provider allows (typically 60-120 days from the transaction). In parallel, file a formal complaint with the Ministry of Economy via their online portal or by visiting their office in your Emirate. The Ministry will investigate and can compel Viddyoze to refund you if the law supports your claim.
Cancellation methods and step-by-step procedures
Your cancellation process varies by subscription source and region. The following procedures cover direct subscriptions, Apple App Store, and Google Play; identify your subscription method and follow the corresponding steps.
Cancelling a direct Viddyoze subscription via email
If you subscribed directly on Viddyoze's website or through their payment processor, email cancellation is your most reliable method because it creates a written record and is legally defensible.
- Log into your Viddyoze account at the main website.
- Locate your account email address and any subscription or account ID number. (You may find this in the account settings, billing history, or confirmation emails from Viddyoze.)
- Open your email client and compose a new message to [email protected].
- In the subject line, write: "Subscription Cancellation Request - [Your Email Address]".
- In the email body, include the following information:
- Your full name as it appears on the account.
- The email address associated with your Viddyoze account.
- Your subscription account ID or order number.
- The date you subscribed.
- A clear statement: "I request immediate cancellation of my Viddyoze subscription effective today. Please confirm cancellation in writing and provide details of any refund due under the 14-day cooling-off period."
- Your current date and a request for written confirmation within 5 business days.
- Send the email and save a copy to your personal files or folder.
- Wait for a response. Viddyoze should reply within 5 business days acknowledging the cancellation. If you receive no reply within 7 days, send a follow-up email referencing the date and subject of your original request.
Cancelling through your Viddyoze account dashboard
If Viddyoze's account interface allows you to cancel directly via a subscription settings page, this method provides instant confirmation and is often faster than email.
- Log into your Viddyoze account using your email and password.
- Navigate to the account settings, billing settings, or subscription management section. (This may be labelled "Manage Subscription", "Billing", "Account", or "Settings".)
- Locate your active subscription and look for a "Cancel Subscription" or "Downgrade" button.
- Click the cancellation option and follow the on-screen prompts. Take a screenshot of the confirmation page before proceeding.
- If the system asks for a cancellation reason, select the most accurate option or write a brief note (this helps Viddyoze improve but does not affect your right to cancel).
- Complete the cancellation and immediately download or save any confirmation email that Viddyoze sends. This confirmation is your proof of cancellation.
- If no confirmation email arrives within 24 hours, email [email protected] with your screenshot as evidence that you initiated cancellation.
Cancelling an apple app store subscription
If you subscribed to Viddyoze via the Apple App Store (on iPhone or iPad), you must cancel through your Apple account, not through Viddyoze's app or website.
- On your iPhone or iPad, open the Settings app.
- Tap your name at the top of the screen, then select "Subscriptions".
- Find and tap "Viddyoze" in the list of active subscriptions.
- Tap "Cancel Subscription" and confirm your choice. Apple will show you the cancellation effective date.
- Take a screenshot of the cancellation confirmation.
- After cancellation, Apple will not bill you on the next renewal date. If Apple charged you within the last 14 days, you can request a refund directly from Apple by navigating to the same subscription menu, tapping "Report a Problem", and selecting your reason for the refund request.
Cancelling a google play subscription
If you subscribed to Viddyoze via Google Play on an Android device, cancel through your Google Play account settings.
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
- Tap your profile icon in the top right corner and select "Payments and subscriptions".
- Tap "Subscriptions" and locate "Viddyoze" in your active subscriptions list.
- Tap "Viddyoze" and then tap "Cancel subscription".
- Follow the prompts to confirm cancellation. Google will display your cancellation effective date.
- Take a screenshot of the confirmation for your records.
- If you were charged within the last 14 days, you can request a refund by tapping "Report a Problem" next to the subscription and selecting your reason.
Refund eligibility and recovery timelines
Your refund depends on when you subscribed and when you cancel. The following table outlines the most common refund scenarios under UAE consumer law.
| Scenario |
Refund eligibility |
Timeline |

How to request a refund after cancellation
Cancellation and refund are not automatic. You must explicitly request a refund once you have cancelled.
- After you have cancelled your subscription, send a separate email to [email protected] with the subject line "Refund Request - [Your Account Email]".
- In the body, state the date you purchased, the date you cancelled, and reference your cancellation confirmation number or the date Viddyoze processed the cancellation.
- Explain that you are within the 14-day cooling-off period (if applicable) and request a full refund to your original payment method.
- Viddyoze should respond within 10 business days confirming the refund has been initiated.
- Check your bank or credit card account 5-10 business days after Viddyoze confirms the refund. If the refund does not appear within 15 business days, contact your bank and ask them to trace the refund.
- If Viddyoze denies your refund claim, escalate to the Ministry of Economy with a copy of your cancellation and refund request emails.
Disputing charges through your payment provider
If Viddyoze refuses to refund you or does not respond within 30 days, contact your bank or credit card company and file a dispute. This is your legal right and does not require Viddyoze's permission.
- Log into your bank's online platform or mobile app and navigate to the transaction in question.
- Look for a "Dispute" or "Report Unauthorized Charge" option.
- Select the transaction(s) related to Viddyoze and provide the reason for dispute (e.g., "Unauthorized charge after cancellation" or "Service not as described").
- Attach or upload copies of your cancellation request emails and any refusal correspondence from Viddyoze.
- Submit the dispute. Your bank will investigate and typically respond within 30-60 days. If the dispute is upheld, the bank will reverse the charge and refund you.
- Keep all documentation and reference numbers for this dispute.
After cancellation what to do next
Cancellation is only the beginning; protecting yourself after cancellation requires active monitoring and documentation. You are not alone in navigating this process, and thousands of consumers have successfully recovered fees after disputes by following these steps.
Verify your cancellation is complete
Do not assume your cancellation is final until you see proof. Within 3 days of requesting cancellation, log back into your Viddyoze account and confirm that your subscription is no longer listed as active. If the subscription still shows as active, send another cancellation email immediately. Screenshot your account to show the active or cancelled status.
Monitor your payment accounts
Set a reminder in your calendar for the date of your next scheduled billing cycle. On that date, check your bank account and credit card statements to confirm that Viddyoze did not charge you again. If you see a charge after cancellation, immediately contact your bank and file a dispute citing "Charge after cancellation" as the reason.
Preserve all evidence
Create a folder on your computer or phone and save every cancellation-related document: cancellation confirmation emails from Viddyoze, screenshots of your account showing cancellation status, your refund request email, your bank or credit card cancellation notice, and any response from the Ministry of Economy. This evidence protects you in any future dispute or escalation.
Common mistakes to avoid during cancellation
Cancellation errors can delay your refund or weaken your dispute claim. Many consumers inadvertently sabotage their own refund by making these preventable mistakes.
Assuming cancellation equals refund
Cancelling your subscription stops future charges but does not automatically trigger a refund of fees already paid. You must explicitly request a refund in a separate communication. Do not cancel and assume your money will automatically return; instead, cancel and then send a dedicated refund request within the same email thread or a follow-up message.
Cancelling through the app instead of your payment provider
If you subscribed through Apple App Store or Google Play, cancelling within the Viddyoze app does not work. You must cancel through your Apple account or Google Play account. Cancelling only within the app leaves your subscription active on the payment platform, and charges will continue.
Missing the 14-day cooling-off window
The 14-day cooling-off period is a fixed deadline. Once it passes, your refund rights are significantly weaker. If you are unhappy with Viddyoze, do not wait to see if it improves; cancel within 14 days of purchase to guarantee your refund eligibility.
Not keeping cancellation proof
If you cancel via the app or website without requesting a confirmation email, you have no written proof that cancellation occurred. Always request written confirmation and take screenshots. If Viddyoze later disputes your cancellation, your proof is your only defence.
Failing to escalate when Viddyoze ignores your request
If Viddyoze does not respond to your cancellation email within 7 days, do not send another email politely asking. Instead, escalate immediately. File a chargeback with your bank or lodge a complaint with the Ministry of Economy. Yafee (yafee.com) advises that patience with non-responsive companies costs you money; swift escalation is the appropriate response.

Viddyoze billing is typically recurrent unless you cancel before the renewal date. Annual plans lock you into a full year of charges unless you request a refund within the cooling-off period or escalate a dispute to your payment provider. If you purchased an annual plan more than 14 days ago and now regret it, your refund path is narrower but not closed; contact the Ministry of Economy to explore options for refunds based on service defects or misrepresentation.

Before you cancel, consider whether a different plan tier within Viddyoze (downgrading from Professional to Starter, for example) might meet your needs at lower cost. Downgrading is faster than cancelling and refunding, and it preserves any credits or templates you may have created. If you are certain Viddyoze is not right for you, however, cancel completely and then evaluate these alternatives on a free trial or monthly plan.
The following contact details and escalation pathways apply if Viddyoze fails to process your cancellation or refund within the legal timeframe.
Direct contact with Viddyoze
Email your cancellation request to [email protected]. Include your account email, subscription ID, and a clear cancellation statement. Expect a response within 5-7 business days. If Viddyoze does not reply within 10 days, proceed to the escalation routes below.
Escalation to the UAE ministry of economy
If Viddyoze refuses to cancel or refund, file a formal complaint with the Ministry of Economy (Wizarat al-Iqtisad), the UAE's consumer protection authority. You can lodge your complaint online via the Ministry's website or visit the nearest Ministry office in your Emirate. Include copies of all cancellation and refund request emails, Viddyoze's responses (if any), and proof of your subscription payment. The Ministry will investigate and can compel Viddyoze to refund you or face penalties.
Dispute through your payment provider
Contact your bank or credit card company and initiate a chargeback dispute for "Unauthorized charge after cancellation" or "Service not as described". This process typically takes 30-60 days but does not require Viddyoze's cooperation. Your bank will reverse the charge if the dispute is upheld.
Summary and next steps
Cancelling Viddyoze is straightforward when you follow the correct procedure for your subscription source and act within the 14-day cooling-off period. Your legal right to cancel is protected by UAE Consumer Protection Law, and you are entitled to a full refund if you act quickly. At Yafee (yafee.com), we have helped thousands of consumers cancel SaaS subscriptions, recover fees, and avoid repeat charges by providing clear procedures and protecting their rights when companies resist.
Your next step is to identify how you subscribed (directly, Apple App Store, or Google Play), send a cancellation email to [email protected] or use the appropriate app store cancellation interface, and then monitor your payment account to ensure no further charges occur. If Viddyoze fails to respond or refuses to refund you, escalate to your payment provider or the Ministry of Economy immediately. Do not delay; the sooner you cancel, the stronger your refund claim and the faster your money returns.
Yafee (yafee.com) has helped thousands of consumers navigate exactly this scenario, and we know that clear, legally grounded procedures work. Follow the steps in this guide, keep your evidence, and act within the timelines provided. Your subscription fees are your money, and UAE law is on your side.
