How to cancel Fastic and recover your subscription fees: the canadian subscriber's complete guide
Understanding Fastic and why you might want to cancel
Fastic is a mobile application and subscription service that helps you track intermittent fasting, monitor your nutritional intake, and establish sustainable healthy habits. The platform provides a free tier alongside Fastic Plus, a premium subscription offering guided fasting protocols, advanced tracking analytics, educational resources, and motivational tools including countdown timers, daily prompts, and streak records. If you have enrolled in Fastic Plus and now wish to discontinue your membership, Yafee has prepared this comprehensive guide to help you navigate the cancellation process efficiently and understand your legal entitlements as a Canadian consumer.
What is Fastic plus and what does it cost
Fastic Plus unlocks premium functionality across three subscription tiers, each designed to accommodate different budget requirements and commitment levels. The following table summarizes current Canadian pricing:
| Plan |
Price (CAD) |
Billing cycle |
Best suited for |
| Monthly |
$11.99 to $12.99 |
Every 30 days |
Maximum flexibility and short-term trial |
| Quarterly (3-month) |
$29.99 |
Every 90 days |
Moderate commitment with modest savings |
| Annual (12-month) |
$79.99 |
Every 365 days |
Long-term users seeking maximum rate reduction |
Many subscribers select the annual plan to minimize costs, only to discover mid-cycle that the service no longer aligns with their objectives. Yafee's cancellation guides demystify this process and help you recover eligible refunds and understand your contractual position.
Common reasons why people cancel Fastic
You may be cancelling because you have achieved your fasting milestones, prefer an alternative application, question the cost-to-value proposition, or need to reduce discretionary expenses. Whatever your motivation, terminating your subscription should not require navigating an opaque or deliberately obstructed process. Yafee has assisted thousands of Canadian subscribers through subscription cancellations across multiple service categories. With Fastic, the termination procedure is straightforward once you identify which payment platform processed your original transaction.
Your consumer rights in canada and what they mean for your Fastic subscription
Canadian consumer protection statutes grant you specific rights when you cancel digital subscriptions, though these rights differ materially from European Union protections.
What canadian consumer protection laws say about digital subscriptions
Unlike the European Union framework, Canada does not impose a mandatory statutory 14-day "cooling-off" period for digital services. However, Fastic voluntarily extends a 14-day "Feel Good Guarantee" that permits you to obtain a complete refund if you request cancellation within 14 calendar days of your initial purchase, with no justification required. This guarantee extends to all Canadian subscribers regardless of which payment channel processed your transaction.
When you purchase directly on fastic.com, Fastic honours a 14-day statutory right of withdrawal under Canadian consumer protection principles. This entitlement permits you to rescind your purchase, receive a full refund without penalties, and have your service access terminated within 14 days of purchase. Refunds are processed promptly and issued no later than 14 days after Fastic receives your formal withdrawal notification, returned to your original payment method without deductions.
If you subscribed through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, your transaction is governed by those platforms' independent refund policies rather than Fastic's terms directly. Apple and Google each maintain separate cancellation windows (typically 14 to 15 days) and distinct procedural requirements. Retain copies of all transaction receipts, order confirmations, and cancellation confirmations. These documents serve as your evidence if a dispute arises with Fastic or your payment processor.
Your legal position when Fastic refuses to cancel or refund
If Fastic fails to process your cancellation request or denies a refund you believe you are entitled to claim, you retain escalation remedies. Under the Competition Act (Canada), consumers possess the right to pursue redress through the Competition Bureau if a business engages in unconscionable conduct. First, document all relevant communications: the date of your cancellation request, the method you used (email, registered mail), any response received, and specific dates of each interaction. Next, contact your payment issuer (your bank or credit card provider) and formally dispute the transaction. Payment processors investigate complaints rigorously and can reverse charges or recover funds on your behalf. This chargeback process typically concludes within 30 to 45 days.
If internal resolution fails, escalate to the Competition Bureau through their online complaint portal or by contacting your provincial consumer protection authority. Yafee recommends preparing a concise written summary of your dispute, including all correspondence and evidence of your cancellation request and Fastic's response (or lack thereof).
Your cancellation procedure depends entirely on which payment platform processed your original subscription. Follow the procedure that matches your payment method.

Cancelling by contacting Fastic directly via email

This method also creates a documented written record of your cancellation request, which is valuable evidence if a dispute arises.

Cancelling by registered mail (if email is unresponsive)
If Fastic does not respond to your email within 5 business days, or if you prefer a method that provides proof of delivery, send your cancellation request by registered mail with proof of receipt (raccomandata in some jurisdictions, but in Canada use Canada Post's Xpresspost with signature confirmation).
- Prepare a written letter on plain white paper.
- Date the letter clearly (DD/MM/YYYY).
- Include your full name, residential address, and the email address on your Fastic account.

Understanding your refund timeline and what to expect after cancellation
Your refund eligibility and timeline depend on when you submit your cancellation request relative to your purchase date and billing cycle.
Refund eligibility within the 14-day window
If you cancel within 14 calendar days of your initial purchase, you are entitled to a full refund without conditions. Fastic processes these refunds promptly and deposits the full amount to your original payment method within 14 days of receiving your withdrawal notice. No deductions or restocking fees apply. You will see the refund appear on your credit card or bank account statement within 5 to 10 business days after Fastic initiates the reversal.
Cancellations after the 14-day window
If you request cancellation after 14 days have elapsed since your purchase, you are not entitled to a refund under the statutory withdrawal right. However, Fastic may honour a discretionary refund if you contact them directly and explain your circumstances. Some subscription services issue partial refunds for unused portions of your paid period, calculated on a pro-rata basis (dividing your monthly cost by the number of days remaining in your billing cycle). Yafee recommends requesting a pro-rata refund explicitly in your cancellation email. If Fastic declines, you may still escalate to your payment processor or relevant consumer authority.
What happens to your Fastic account after cancellation
Upon cancellation, your Fastic Plus features will terminate at the end of your current billing cycle. You retain access to the free tier of the Fastic application indefinitely, including basic fasting tracking and a limited feature set. Your account history, fasting logs, and personal data remain stored on Fastic's servers unless you request account deletion separately. If you wish to delete your account entirely and have your personal data removed, contact [email protected] and request account deletion in writing. Data deletion typically concludes within 30 days in compliance with Canadian privacy legislation.
Common cancellation mistakes and how to avoid them
Most cancellation issues are avoidable with proper planning and documentation. Yafee has identified the following frequent errors that consumers make when terminating Fastic subscriptions.
Mistake one: cancelling within the app but not receiving a confirmation email
Some users complete the in-app cancellation process, see a confirmation message on their screen, but never receive a formal confirmation email. This leaves no documentary evidence of your cancellation request. To avoid this, always screenshot the final confirmation screen showing the cancellation date and confirmation number (if provided). If no confirmation email arrives within 4 hours, send a follow-up email to [email protected] referencing the date and time you cancelled in the app, and ask for written confirmation of receipt.
Mistake two: assuming cancellation prevents the next billing charge
Many subscribers believe that cancelling immediately stops all charges. In reality, Fastic processes your final charge at your next renewal date unless you cancel before that date arrives. If you paid for a monthly subscription on the 15th of the month, your next charge will occur on the 15th of the following month. Cancellation submitted on the 20th will not prevent the charge on the 15th of next month; instead, your subscription will terminate after that final charge is processed. Plan your cancellation for a date that aligns with your desired outcome. If you want to avoid an upcoming charge, submit your cancellation at least 48 hours before your renewal date.
Mistake three: confusing payment platform cancellation with app deletion
Deleting the Fastic application from your phone or tablet does not cancel your subscription. Your subscription remains active on Apple's or Google's systems, and you will continue to incur charges. You must cancel your subscription through the App Store or Google Play Store settings before uninstalling the application. Only after confirming cancellation should you delete the app.
Mistake four: failing to document your request if using email
Cancellation requests sent via email create written records, but only if you retain copies. Save both your outgoing email and Fastic's response in a dedicated folder. Include the date you sent the email and the date of Fastic's response in your record. If a billing dispute arises weeks or months later, this documentation proves you requested cancellation on a specific date and Fastic acknowledged receipt.
What to do if charges continue after you cancel
If Fastic processes a subscription renewal charge after you have submitted a valid cancellation request, you have clear remedies under Canadian consumer protection law and payment processor regulations.
Step one: contact Fastic immediately and request a refund
Send an email to [email protected] stating: "I submitted a cancellation request on [date], and I have confirmation [provide confirmation number or reference]. A charge of $[amount] was processed on [date] after my cancellation. I request an immediate refund of this charge and confirmation that my account will not be charged again." Provide your confirmation email or screenshot as an attachment. Expect a response within 48 hours. If Fastic does not respond or refuses to refund, proceed to step two.
Step two: dispute the charge with your payment processor
Contact your bank, credit card company, or payment app (PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, etc.) and report the charge as unauthorized or disputed. Most payment processors offer a "claim" or "dispute" process for erroneous charges. You will be asked to provide evidence, including your cancellation confirmation and the charge statement. The payment processor will typically initiate an investigation and notify Fastic of your claim. Fastic then has 7 to 10 days to respond with evidence that you authorised the charge. If you provide your cancellation confirmation, the processor will likely reverse the charge in your favour within 30 to 45 days.
Step three: escalate to your provincial consumer authority
If your payment processor's dispute process is unsuccessful or if Fastic continues charging after you have filed a dispute, contact your provincial consumer protection office. In Ontario, this is the Ministry of Government and Consumer Services. In British Columbia, contact the Office of the Consumer Protection BC. Each province maintains a consumer complaints process. Yafee recommends filing a complaint online or by mail, including all documentation: your cancellation request, Fastic's response (or lack thereof), your payment processor's dispute decision, and copies of the unauthorized charges.
Pricing breakdown and whether Fastic is worth the cost
Determining whether to maintain or cancel your Fastic subscription requires comparing the cost against the value you derive from the premium features.
| Plan |
Total annual cost (CAD) |
Monthly equivalent |
Value assessment |
| Monthly (auto-renewal) |
$143.88 to $155.88 |
$11.99 to $12.99 |
Highest cost; pay only if actively using premium features |
| Quarterly |
$119.96 |
$9.99 per month (approximate) |
Best balance of savings and flexibility |
| Annual |
$79.99 |
$6.67 per month |
Lowest cost; commit only if confident you will use the service |
If you selected the annual plan at $79.99 CAD and now use the app fewer than three times per week, the cost-to-value ratio has deteriorated substantially. Yafee's analysis suggests that users who open Fastic fewer than twice per week derive insufficient value to justify the subscription. If this describes your usage pattern, cancellation is rational. Alternatively, downgrade to the free tier and revisit the subscription if your fasting discipline improves.
