Frequently asked questions
Cancel Total Drive: The Right Way
How to cancel Total Drive and protect your refund in canada
What Total Drive is and why you might want to cancel
Total Drive is a cloud backup and subscription service operated by Total Security Limited, offering file storage, photo backup, and specialized tools for educators-including diary management, pupil tracking, and payment processing features. You can access Total Drive through web and mobile applications, and your billing may route through the service directly or via your app store, depending on how you originally subscribed.
You might consider cancelling if you no longer need instructor features, prefer an alternative storage solution, or want to reduce your monthly expenses. Whatever your reason, Yafee is here to walk you through the process step by step and help you understand your rights as a Canadian consumer.
Is Total Drive right for you?
Total Drive works best for educators who actively manage classroom data and student progress. If you use it only occasionally or have migrated to another platform, cancelling makes financial sense. Take inventory of your backup habits and whether the educator tools justify the ongoing cost before you proceed.
Common reasons to cancel Total Drive
You may cancel for several legitimate reasons: switching to a competing platform, reducing subscription costs, ending your teaching role, or simply no longer requiring the advanced features. Yafee recommends assessing your actual usage against your monthly bill to determine whether cancellation aligns with your financial goals.
Your consumer rights under canadian law
Canada's consumer protection framework-including federal and provincial regulations-gives you strong rights when cancelling digital subscriptions.
Cooling-off periods and refund windows
Total Drive offers a money-back guarantee that aligns with standard Canadian consumer expectations. For annual and bi-annual plans, you can request a refund within 30 days of purchase or renewal. For monthly, quarterly, and add-on purchases, the refund window is 14 days from purchase or renewal. These windows are your legal leverage; use them strategically to recover funds if the service does not meet your needs.
If you purchased through Apple App Store or Google Play Store, you must request refunds through those platforms' own processes, not directly from Total Drive. Each store has its own refund policies and timelines, which may be more generous than the service provider's terms. Yafee advises checking the app store's refund policy before contacting Total Drive.
Your legal position
Under the Consumer Protection Act (federal) and equivalent provincial legislation, you have the right to cancel a subscription service and receive a pro-rata refund of unused services within the stated cooling-off period. If Total Drive refuses your refund request without legal justification, you can escalate to your provincial consumer protection office, which has the authority to investigate and enforce compliance. Yafee recommends documenting all correspondence with Total Drive before escalating to your provincial authority.
Your rights if Total Drive refuses a refund
If Total Drive denies your refund request within the stated windows, you have clear recourse. Contact your provincial consumer protection office-each Canadian province maintains an agency that investigates unfair billing practices. In Ontario, that is the Ministry of Government and Consumer Services; in British Columbia, the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions; in Alberta, the Fair Trading Act administrator. In Quebec, contact the Office of the Protecteur du consommateur. These offices investigate complaints about unfair subscription practices and can compel refunds on your behalf.
How to cancel Total Drive on every platform
You have three distinct cancellation routes: the Total Drive website, Apple App Store, or Google Play Store. Your platform depends on how you originally subscribed.
Cancel via the Total Drive website
This method gives you the most direct control and access to refund options.
- Visit the Total Drive login page and enter your email address and password.
- If you have forgotten your password, use the "Forgot Password" link to reset it before proceeding.
- Once logged in, navigate to My Subscriptions in your account dashboard.
- This section lists all active plans tied to your account.
- Locate the subscription you wish to cancel and select Cancel Subscription.
- The system will ask you to confirm your identity via an email code sent to your registered address or by providing the first six digits of your payment method.
- Complete identity verification when prompted.
- Check your email inbox and spam folder for the verification code within 10 minutes.
- Confirm cancellation on the final screen.
- You will receive an immediate confirmation email with cancellation details and refund eligibility information.
Cancel via apple app store
If you subscribed through the Apple App Store on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac, you must cancel through Apple's subscription management interface.
- Open the Settings app on your Apple device.
- On Mac, open System Preferences instead.
- Tap Subscriptions (on iOS/iPad OS) or navigate to Apple ID and select Subscriptions (on Mac).
- You may be prompted to log in with your Apple ID.
- Find Total Drive in your active subscriptions list.
- If you do not see it, scroll down to the "Expired" section to confirm it has already been cancelled.
- Tap Cancel Subscription.
- Apple will display your refund eligibility based on when you purchased or renewed.
- Confirm your cancellation request.
- You will receive a confirmation email from Apple within 24 hours.
Cancel via google play store
If you subscribed through Google Play Store on your Android device or via the web, cancel through Google's subscription management system.
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device or visit play.google.com in your web browser.
- If using the web, log in with your Google account.
- Navigate to Account menu (tap your profile icon in the top right corner).
- Select Subscriptions from the dropdown menu.
- Find Total Drive in your active subscriptions list.
- If the subscription does not appear, check your purchase history or contact Total Drive directly.
- Tap Cancel Subscription.
- Google will show your cancellation date and any refund eligibility based on your purchase date and your country's consumer laws.
- Confirm the cancellation and review the final summary.
- You will receive a confirmation email from Google Play within 24 hours.
Refund eligibility and what to expect
Your refund depends on when you purchased or renewed your subscription and which platform you used.
| Plan type | Refund window | Amount refunded |
|---|---|---|
| Annual plan | 30 days from purchase or renewal | Full refund (100%) |
| Bi-annual plan | 30 days from purchase or renewal | Full refund (100%) |
| Monthly plan | 14 days from purchase or renewal | Full refund if within window; pro-rata if outside |
| Quarterly plan | 14 days from purchase or renewal | Full refund if within window; pro-rata if outside |
| Add-on purchases | 14 days from purchase | Full refund if within window |
Pro-rata refunds for cancellations outside the cooling-off period
If you cancel outside the stated refund window, Total Drive will calculate a pro-rata refund based on the number of unused days remaining in your billing cycle. For example, if you cancel on day 10 of a 30-day monthly cycle, you will receive a refund for 20 days of unused service. Yafee recommends requesting this calculation in writing via email to ensure transparency and accuracy.
Processing time and payment method
Total Drive processes refunds within 5 to 7 business days after you submit your cancellation request. The refund will return to your original payment method-the card, PayPal account, or app store account you used to purchase the subscription. If you do not see the refund within 10 business days, contact your bank or payment provider, as the delay may occur on their side, not Total Drive's.
What happens after you cancel
Cancelling your subscription does not immediately delete your data or account; it simply stops billing for future periods.
Access to your data post-cancellation
After cancellation, you retain read-only access to your backed-up files and student records for a limited period-typically 30 days. This grace period allows you to export or download your data before Total Drive permanently removes it from their servers. Yafee strongly advises downloading all critical files, photos, and reports during this window if you intend to migrate to another service.
Account closure and permanent deletion
If you wish to permanently delete your account and all associated data, you must submit a separate request to Total Drive's support team. Send an email to their cancellation address (see the section below) requesting account closure and permanent deletion under the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). Total Drive will typically process this request within 30 days and confirm deletion in writing.
Pricing comparison table
Before cancelling, consider whether you are on the most cost-effective plan for your needs.
| Plan | Monthly cost | Annual cost | Storage capacity | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total Drive Starter | $4.99 CAD | $49.99 CAD | 100 GB | Personal users and small teams |
| Total Drive Professional | $9.99 CAD | $99.99 CAD | 500 GB | Educators with multiple classes |
| Total Drive Premium | $14.99 CAD | $149.99 CAD | 1 TB | Schools and large institutions |
| Total Drive Enterprise | Contact for pricing | Contact for pricing | Unlimited | Districts and multi-school systems |
Common mistakes to avoid during cancellation
Cancelling a subscription sounds straightforward, but several pitfalls can delay your refund or lock you into unwanted charges.
Mistake 1: cancelling through the wrong platform
If you subscribed via Apple App Store, cancelling through Total Drive's website will not stop Apple from billing you. Each platform operates independently. Verify your original purchase receipt (check your email for confirmation) to identify the correct cancellation method. Yafee has helped thousands of consumers recover refunds by identifying and using the correct cancellation path.
Mistake 2: missing the refund window deadline
The 14-day and 30-day refund windows begin on your purchase or renewal date, not when you first notice the charge. If you miss this window, you forfeit the right to a full refund and can only claim a pro-rata amount. Set a calendar reminder for 7 days after purchase so you have time to decide and cancel within the window.
Mistake 3: not requesting identity verification promptly
Total Drive sends verification codes via email, and these expire within 10 minutes. If you do not complete verification quickly, you will need to restart the cancellation process. Check your spam folder immediately after initiating cancellation, as verification emails are sometimes filtered.
Mistake 4: failing to document your refund request
Screenshot every confirmation email and save copies of your cancellation receipt. If a dispute arises later and Total Drive claims no refund was requested, your documentation is proof. Yafee recommends forwarding the cancellation confirmation to a personal email account you control.
Mistake 5: assuming auto-renewal is disabled
Cancellation stops future billing, but if you reactivate your account later without explicitly disabling auto-renewal, the service may automatically resume charging you. After cancelling, log back into your account 48 hours later to confirm that auto-renewal is fully disabled and no charges are pending.
Escalation: what to do if Total Drive refuses your refund
If Total Drive denies your refund request without a valid reason, you have formal recourse through Canada's consumer protection system.
Step 1: send a formal written demand
Send a registered letter or email to Total Drive's support address (listed below) stating your refund request, the amount, your account email, and the date you purchased or renewed. Reference the Consumer Protection Act and the refund window that applies to your plan. Give Total Drive 14 days to respond.
Step 2: file a complaint with your provincial consumer protection office
If Total Drive does not respond or refuses your request, contact your provincial consumer protection agency. These offices investigate billing disputes and can compel refunds:
- Ontario: Ministry of Government and Consumer Services (1-800-889-9768)
- British Columbia: Consumer Protection BC (1-888-564-9963)
- Alberta: Fair Trading Act administrator ([email protected])
- Quebec: Office of the Protecteur du consommateur (1-800-263-2435)
- Other provinces: Contact your provincial Attorney General's office for consumer protection contact details.
Step 3: pursue a chargeback with your payment provider
If Total Drive continues to refuse your refund after 30 days, contact your bank or credit card company and request a chargeback. Provide your documentation (confirmation emails, cancellation screenshots, and correspondence with Total Drive). Your bank can reverse the transaction on your behalf if your evidence supports a claim of unfair billing or breach of the refund promise.
