Frequently asked questions
Cancel Askadoctor: The Right Way to Manage Your Subscription
How to cancel Askadoctor and protect your refund rights in canada
Understanding Askadoctor and your subscription commitment
Askadoctor, operated by JustAnswer, is an online health consultation platform that connects you with licensed medical professionals through chat, messaging, or video consultation. You pay a recurring monthly subscription fee to access on-demand medical advice and ongoing consultations with qualified doctors across Canada.
The service operates on an auto-renewal model, meaning your membership continues every billing cycle unless you actively cancel. Monthly charges range from CAD $66 to CAD $85 and are deducted automatically. Many subscribers discover unexpected recurring charges weeks after signing up, prompting them to seek cancellation.
Whether you are dissatisfied with the service quality, found a better alternative, or simply want to stop automatic billing, Yafee has developed this guide to help you navigate cancellation with legal clarity and confidence.
How Askadoctor membership and auto-renewal operates
When you create an Askadoctor account, you agree to a recurring monthly subscription. Your subscription platform determines your cancellation pathway and refund eligibility. You may have purchased your membership through one of three channels: the Askadoctor website directly, the Apple App Store (iOS), or Google Play (Android). Each platform operates under different terms and requires a distinct cancellation procedure.
Understanding which platform hosts your subscription is essential before you attempt to cancel. Your subscription confirmation email or account dashboard will indicate the purchase source.
Why auto-renewal subscriptions matter to your budget
Recurring billing charges accumulate quickly when subscriptions remain active. A CAD $75 monthly charge equals CAD $900 annually in automatic deductions. Many Canadian consumers overlook these recurring charges until they conduct a thorough review of their bank statements or credit card bills. Yafee recommends checking your payment records before initiating cancellation so you can document any unexpected charges for potential dispute or refund claims.
Askadoctor pricing and subscription plans
Askadoctor's pricing structure varies depending on your subscription source and regional factors, and this inconsistency has driven many users to cancel.
| Subscription type | Price (CAD) | Billing cycle | Access level |
|---|---|---|---|
| Direct website monthly subscription | $66-$85/month | Monthly auto-renewal | Chat with licensed doctors |
| Apple App Store (iOS) subscription | Varies by region | Monthly auto-renewal | Chat with licensed doctors |
| Google Play (Android) subscription | Varies by region | Monthly auto-renewal | Chat with licensed doctors |
Pricing is not transparently displayed across all platforms. If you are uncertain which plan you currently hold, retrieve your most recent payment confirmation email or access your account settings to verify your subscription tier before proceeding with cancellation.
Your consumer rights under canadian protection law
Canada's consumer protection statutes establish your legal foundation for disputing unauthorized charges or misleading auto-renewal terms.
Federal and provincial consumer protection framework
Under provincial consumer protection legislation (including Ontario's Consumer Protection Act and equivalent statutes in British Columbia, Alberta, and other provinces), merchants must disclose subscription terms clearly and transparently before charging your account. The law prohibits deceptive or misleading practices in subscription marketing and billing.
Furthermore, the federal Competition Act establishes that companies cannot misrepresent material facts about auto-renewal terms or charge consumers without explicit, informed consent. If Askadoctor failed to disclose its auto-renewal terms clearly, charged your account without unambiguous authorization, or misrepresented service functionality, you may have grounds to demand a refund or initiate a chargeback dispute.
Yafee recommends collecting evidence of any misleading marketing, unclear terms, or unauthorized charges before contacting Askadoctor's support team, as this documentation strengthens your position in a formal dispute.
Your legal position on refunds and service defects
You have a stronger refund claim if any of the following circumstances apply to your situation:
- Askadoctor did not clearly disclose that your subscription would auto-renew after the initial billing period.
- The company charged your payment method without obtaining explicit, prior written consent from you.
- The service performed materially differently from how Askadoctor advertised or described it on their website or marketing materials.
- You cancelled your subscription but the company continued to charge your account after the cancellation effective date.
- Askadoctor failed to honour a cancellation request or delayed processing your cancellation for an unreasonable period.
In any of these scenarios, you may escalate your dispute to your provincial consumer protection authority or file a chargeback claim with your financial institution. Yafee advises documenting your cancellation request (date, method, confirmation number, if provided) for future reference.
How to cancel Askadoctor via direct website account
Cancellation through the Askadoctor website requires written notice sent directly to the company's support team via email or postal mail.
Step one: gather your account information
Before contacting Askadoctor, collect the following details to streamline the cancellation process:
- Your registered email address associated with your Askadoctor account.
- Your account username or customer ID (visible in account settings or your confirmation email).
- Your current subscription plan name and monthly billing amount.
- The date you most recently received a billing charge.
- Your preferred method of cancellation (email or postal mail).
Step two: submit your cancellation notice via email
- Compose a new email message to the Askadoctor support team at [email protected].
- In the subject line, write: "Cancellation Request - Askadoctor Account."
- In the email body, include the following information:
- Your full name and registered email address on file.
- Your account ID or username.
- A clear statement: "I request immediate cancellation of my Askadoctor subscription effective as of today's date."
- Your preferred cancellation effective date (noting that Askadoctor's Terms of Service specify the end of the current billing period as the default effective date).
- A request for written confirmation of your cancellation and the effective date.
- Send the email from the address registered to your Askadoctor account to ensure proper verification.
Keep a copy of this email and the timestamp of sending for your records. Yafee recommends using email as your primary method because it creates a verifiable paper trail and establishes proof of your cancellation request.
Step three: submit cancellation via registered mail (optional secondary method)
If email response is delayed or ignored, send a formal written cancellation notice by registered mail to the following address:
JustAnswer Support
[Principal registered address as listed in Askadoctor's Terms of Service]
In your letter, include your name, account ID, email address, subscription details, and a clear cancellation request. Request a delivery confirmation and keep a photocopy for your files. Registered mail creates legal evidence of notification should you need to escalate a dispute to a consumer protection authority.
Step four: monitor your bank account after submission
After submitting your cancellation request, monitor your payment method for any charges after your stated or expected cancellation effective date. According to Askadoctor's Terms of Service, your subscription should end at the conclusion of your current billing period. If a charge appears after this date, contact your bank or credit card issuer immediately to dispute the unauthorized transaction.
How to cancel Askadoctor via apple app store (iOS)
If you subscribed to Askadoctor through the Apple App Store, you must cancel through Apple's subscription management system, not directly through Askadoctor.
Step one: access your apple ID settings
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
- Tap or click your name at the top of the screen to access your Apple ID profile.
- Select "Subscriptions" from the menu.
Step two: locate and cancel the Askadoctor subscription
- Scroll through your active subscriptions to find "Askadoctor."
- Tap or click on Askadoctor to open the subscription details page.
- Select "Cancel Subscription" and confirm your cancellation when prompted.
- Apple will display your cancellation confirmation and the date your access ends (typically the end of your current billing cycle).
Your subscription will remain active until the end of your current billing period, after which no further charges will be deducted from your linked payment method. Apple sends an immediate confirmation email to your account address. Yafee advises saving this confirmation for your records.
Step three: verify cancellation in your Askadoctor account
Log into your Askadoctor account and check your account settings or subscription status page to confirm that your subscription displays as "cancelled" or "inactive." If your Askadoctor account continues to show an active subscription after you have cancelled through Apple, contact Askadoctor support at [email protected] to request manual account deactivation.
How to cancel Askadoctor via google play (Android)
Android subscribers must initiate cancellation through the Google Play app or website, separate from Askadoctor's support team.
Step one: open the google play app on your android device
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android phone or tablet.
- Tap your profile icon in the top right corner of the screen.
- Select "Payments and subscriptions" from the dropdown menu.
- Tap "Subscriptions" to view all active recurring charges linked to your Google account.
Step two: cancel your Askadoctor subscription
- Find and tap "Askadoctor" in your active subscriptions list.
- Select "Cancel subscription" and review the cancellation terms.
- Confirm your cancellation when prompted.
- Google Play will confirm the cancellation date, typically the end of your current billing cycle.
Google sends a cancellation confirmation email to your registered Google account address. Retain this confirmation for documentation purposes.
Step three: verify your cancellation status
Log into your Askadoctor account via the web or app to confirm that your subscription status has updated to reflect cancellation. If the account continues to display as active after 24 to 48 hours, email [email protected] with your cancellation confirmation from Google Play and request that your Askadoctor account be manually deactivated.
Refund eligibility and dispute resolution in canada
Your refund eligibility depends on your specific circumstances and the timing of your cancellation request relative to your billing date.
When you may qualify for a partial or full refund
You may qualify for a refund in the following circumstances:
- You cancelled within your province's statutory cooling-off period (if applicable) and did not materially use the service.
- You were charged after submitting a valid cancellation request, and the charge occurred after your cancellation effective date.
- Askadoctor misrepresented the service's capabilities, and the service did not perform as advertised.
- You cancelled your subscription but Askadoctor continued to charge your account without authorization.
- The company failed to process your cancellation request within a reasonable timeframe.
In most provinces, no automatic 14-day cooling-off period applies to health subscription services purchased online. Nevertheless, if the service quality was materially defective or Askadoctor misled you about service scope, you retain consumer remedy rights under provincial legislation.
How to request a refund from Askadoctor
- Send an email to [email protected] with the subject line "Refund Request - Askadoctor Account."
- Clearly state the reason for your refund request (e.g., unauthorized charge, service defect, misleading marketing).
- Include your account ID, the date(s) of the charge(s) you dispute, and the amount in question.
- Attach copies of any evidence: screenshots of misleading marketing, billing records, cancellation confirmation emails, or bank statements showing unauthorized charges.
- Request written confirmation of the company's decision within 10 business days.
Askadoctor is not legally obligated to grant a refund if you simply changed your mind after purchase, but you retain the right to dispute unauthorized charges or service defects.
Escalating a dispute to your financial institution
If Askadoctor refuses to issue a refund or does not respond to your request within 15 business days, contact your bank or credit card issuer to initiate a chargeback dispute. Provide your financial institution with all evidence of your cancellation request, your refund request email, and documentation of the unauthorized or disputed charges. Your bank may recover the funds while investigating the claim.
Yafee recommends keeping copies of all correspondence with Askadoctor when escalating to your financial institution, as this strengthens your dispute claim.
Common mistakes to avoid during cancellation
Cancellation is straightforward when you follow the proper steps, and avoiding these common pitfalls will protect your financial position.
Mistake one: cancelling through the wrong channel
Many subscribers attempt to cancel their Askadoctor web subscription through the app or assume that deleting the app cancels their account. It does not. You must cancel through the exact platform where you purchased: direct website cancellation requires email to [email protected], Apple App Store subscriptions require Apple ID account settings, and Google Play subscriptions require Google Play account settings. Cancelling through the wrong channel leaves your subscription active and allows continued billing.
Mistake two: failing to obtain written confirmation
Never assume your cancellation is complete without documented proof. Always request written confirmation of your cancellation effective date from the platform or support team. Without this confirmation, you cannot prove the cancellation date if a subsequent charge appears on your account or if you need to escalate a dispute.
Mistake three: assuming refunds are automatic
Askadoctor does not automatically refund unused subscription portions. If you cancel mid-cycle, your account typically remains active through the end of the current billing period. If you believe you deserve a refund due to service defect or misleading terms, you must explicitly request it in writing and provide documentation of your claim.
Mistake four: overlooking continued charges after cancellation
Monitor your bank account closely for 60 days after your cancellation effective date. If unauthorized charges continue after your cancellation date, contact your financial institution immediately. Timely reporting strengthens your chargeback claim and may result in full recovery of unwanted charges.
What happens after you cancel Askadoctor
Understanding the post-cancellation timeline helps you manage your expectations and identify any billing irregularities.
Your subscription access during the notice period
In most cases, your Askadoctor access continues through the end of your current billing cycle even after you submit a cancellation request. You retain the right to use the service until your cancellation effective date. Askadoctor does not typically grant mid-cycle refunds, so you may access the platform until your billing cycle concludes.
After your subscription ends
On the cancellation effective date (typically the last day of your billing cycle), your Askadoctor account will transition to "cancelled" or "inactive" status. You will lose access to the doctor consultation features. No additional charges will be deducted from your payment method after this date, provided your cancellation was processed successfully.
You will no longer receive marketing emails or subscription renewal reminders from Askadoctor after your account deactivation. Your account data (consultation history, medical records) may remain stored by Askadoctor in accordance with their privacy policy and applicable Canadian health privacy laws.
Monitor your next billing cycle
Watch your bank account or credit card statement carefully when your next billing cycle would have commenced (i.e., one month after your cancellation effective date). If a charge appears after your stated cancellation date, this indicates a billing system error or company failure to honour your cancellation. Contact [email protected] immediately with your cancellation confirmation, or file a chargeback dispute with your financial institution if the company does not respond within 5 business days.
How to compare cancellation across health subscription platforms
If you are evaluating whether Askadoctor is the right service for your healthcare needs, understanding how its cancellation terms compare to competing platforms informs your decision.
| Platform | Cancellation method | Refund policy | Access during notice period |
|---|---|---|---|
| Askadoctor (website) | Email or registered mail | No mid-cycle refund; dispute if service defect | Active through billing cycle end |
| Askadoctor (Apple App Store) | Apple ID settings | No mid-cycle refund; dispute through Apple if applicable | Active through billing cycle end |
| Askadoctor (Google Play) | Google Play account settings | No mid-cycle refund; dispute through Google if applicable | Active through billing cycle end |
| Telemedicine provider X (example) | In-app settings | 30-day money-back guarantee | Immediate access loss upon cancellation |
This comparison demonstrates that Askadoctor's cancellation policy aligns with industry standards. However, your choice of platform (website versus app store) materially affects your cancellation pathway and refund dispute process.
Protecting yourself: checklist and record-keeping
Yafee has developed this practical checklist to ensure your cancellation proceeds smoothly and you retain proof of every step.

Direct contact details for Askadoctor support
Send your cancellation notice or refund request to: [email protected]
Include your account ID, registered email address, and a clear cancellation or refund request. Allow 5 to 10 business days for a response.
Consumer protection resources if the company refuses to cooperate
If Askadoctor fails to respond to your cancellation request or refuses to honour a valid refund claim, you may escalate your dispute to your provincial consumer protection authority:
- Ontario: Consumer Protection Ontario (part of ServiceOntario)

- Alberta: Fair Trading Act enforcement through Alberta Commerce
- Other provinces: Contact your provincial ministry of consumer affairs for the applicable authority
Alternatively, initiate a chargeback dispute with your bank or credit card issuer using your cancellation confirmation and refund request documentation as evidence.
