Frequently asked questions
Cancel Unsubby: The Right Way to Do It
How to cancel Unsubby in canada and protect your subscription rights
What Unsubby is and why you might want to leave
Unsubby is a third-party cancellation service that submits formal subscription termination requests to merchants on your behalf. For Canadian subscribers, Unsubby processes cancellations through web forms and registered postal letters, then provides tracking confirmation and status updates. However, Unsubby does not act as the merchant itself and cannot directly disable recurring charges inside Apple App Store or Google Play. Understanding your actual cancellation options and your consumer rights under Canada's Competition Act and provincial consumer protection legislation matters more than paying a service fee.
Whether you are considering Unsubby or already signed up, knowing when to use it, when to cancel directly, and what protections apply to you is essential. At Yafee, we help thousands of Canadian consumers navigate subscription services and third-party cancellation tools so you can make informed decisions and recover your money quickly. Let's walk through when Unsubby makes sense, when it doesn't, and how to cancel it if you've already paid.
When Unsubby helps and when it doesn't
Unsubby works best for direct merchant subscriptions where the vendor explicitly requires formal postal notice or has made their cancellation process deliberately difficult to find. If your subscription is billed through Apple App Store or Google Play, Unsubby cannot help you; you must cancel directly in those stores. Similarly, if the merchant has a live website with an account page and customer service email, you should cancel directly there first. Direct cancellation is always faster and free.
Use Unsubby only when all three of these conditions apply: (1) the merchant demands registered mail for cancellation, (2) you have already tried calling or emailing and received no response within 5 business days, and (3) the merchant's customer service contact is unclear or unresponsive. Otherwise, cancelling directly with the merchant avoids the service fee and delays.
The real cost of Unsubby in canada
Unsubby's Canadian pricing is not publicly listed on their website. You must contact them directly for a current quote. Based on their European pricing structure, you can expect to pay approximately CAD $16-18 per cancellation request, though this may vary. Before you sign up, request their exact Canadian fee in writing so you understand the true cost of their service and can compare it to other options.
| Cancellation method | Cost (CAD) | Timeline | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Direct merchant cancellation | Free | Instant to 2 days | Any merchant with online account or email support |
| Unsubby via web form | CAD $16-18 (estimated) | 5-10 business days | Merchants requiring registered mail; no direct contact |
| Registered mail (self-directed) | CAD $12-15 | 5-10 business days | You control the letter and delivery proof; merchants refuse other methods |
Your legal position under canadian consumer law
Canadian consumer protection law gives you strong rights when cancelling recurring subscriptions. This section explains the legal framework that protects your cancellation request, regardless of whether you use Unsubby or cancel directly.
Federal and provincial consumer protection rules
Canada's Competition Act (federal) prohibits "materially false or misleading representations" about how to cancel a subscription and requires merchants to offer a clear, simple cancellation mechanism. Provincially, most provinces including Ontario, British Columbia, and Alberta have consumer protection acts that mandate merchants provide a cancellation method that is as easy as the method used to sign up. This is called the "negative option rule" or "simple cancellation requirement."
Consequently, if a merchant makes cancellation deliberately hard to find or charges you unauthorized fees after you have cancelled, you have legal grounds to challenge the charge. Yafee recognizes that many Canadian consumers do not know this protection exists; merchants rely on that ignorance.
Your legal remedies if cancellation is refused
If a merchant refuses to honour your cancellation request within 30 days, you have several options:
- File a complaint with your provincial consumer protection authority (for example, Ontario's Ministry of Public and Business Services and Consumers).
- Contact your bank or credit card issuer and request a chargeback for unauthorized recurring charges.
- File a complaint with the Competition Bureau (federal level) if the merchant's cancellation process is intentionally deceptive.
- Pursue a small claims court action for recovery of fees paid after your cancellation request was submitted.
You do not need Unsubby to exercise these rights. However, if you have already paid Unsubby to submit your cancellation, you can claim a refund from Unsubby itself if they fail to deliver results within their stated timeline.
How to cancel Unsubby: step-by-step guide
Your cancellation path depends on how you originally signed up for Unsubby and which subscription you are trying to cancel. We cover each route so you know exactly what to do.
Cancel Unsubby if you subscribed via apple app store
If you signed up for Unsubby through the Apple App Store, you must cancel your subscription directly in your Apple ID settings; Unsubby cannot revoke app store recurring charges.
- Open the device where Unsubby is installed (iPhone, iPad, or Mac).
- Go to Settings (iOS/iPadOS) or System Settings (macOS).
- Tap or click your name at the top of the screen.
- Select Subscriptions.
- Find Unsubby in the list of active subscriptions.
- Tap or click Unsubby and then tap or click Cancel Subscription.
- Confirm your cancellation by following the on-screen prompts.
- Apple will send you a confirmation email within 1-2 minutes.
Your cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle. Apple will not refund fees you have already paid in the current cycle, unless you cancelled within 14 days of your first charge (Apple's standard refund window).
Cancel Unsubby if you subscribed via google play
If you signed up for Unsubby through Google Play on an Android device, you must cancel directly in the Google Play app or on the Google Play website.
- Open the Google Play app on your Android device.
- Tap your profile icon (top right).
- Select Payments and subscriptions.
- Tap Subscriptions.
- Find Unsubby and tap it.
- Tap Cancel subscription and confirm your cancellation.
- Google will send you a confirmation email within 1-2 minutes.
Alternatively, visit play.google.com on your computer, sign into your Google account, go to Payments and subscriptions, select Subscriptions, find Unsubby, and click Cancel subscription. Your cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle.
Cancel Unsubby if you subscribed directly on their website
If you signed up for Unsubby through their website or web form and are billed directly by them, you must contact Unsubby directly to cancel. This is the most important step: Yafee advises keeping a record of all cancellation requests you send.
- Locate Unsubby's current contact address or customer service email address on their website.
- Draft a cancellation email or letter that includes:
- Your full name as it appears in your Unsubby account.
- Your email address associated with the account.
- Your billing or account reference number (if available).
- A clear statement: "I hereby cancel my Unsubby subscription effective immediately."
- The current date.
- Your signature (if sending a printed letter).
- Send your cancellation request via email with read receipt enabled, or send a registered letter to their postal address if email contact is unavailable.
- Keep a copy of your cancellation request and any delivery confirmations.
- Wait 5 business days for a response.
- Check your credit card or bank statement 7 days later to confirm no further charges appear.
If Unsubby continues to charge you after your cancellation request, you have grounds to request a refund or initiate a chargeback with your bank.
What to expect after cancellation
After you submit your cancellation request, several things happen in sequence. Understanding this timeline protects you from accidentally paying a fee you did not expect.
Billing and refund timing
Once you cancel, your subscription ends at the end of your current billing cycle, not immediately. For example, if you cancel on the 15th of the month and your billing cycle ends on the 30th, you will be charged once more on the 30th for the full month. Unsubby, Apple, and Google Play do not prorate refunds for partial months unless the subscription is less than 30 days old.
To request an early refund, contact Unsubby directly (if you subscribed directly) or submit a refund request through Apple or Google Play within 14 days of your purchase. Yafee recommends requesting this in writing so you have a record.
Confirming cancellation in your account
Log into your Unsubby account (if you have one) 7 days after you submit your cancellation request. Your subscription should show as "Cancelled" or "Inactive." If it still shows as active or if charges continue to appear on your statement, contact Unsubby immediately and request a written confirmation of your cancellation.
Monitoring your bank or card statements
Check your credit card or bank statement for 2 billing cycles after your cancellation date. You should see no further charges from Unsubby. If a charge appears after your cancellation, document it immediately and contact your bank to request a chargeback for an unauthorized recurring charge.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling Unsubby
Cancelling a subscription feels straightforward, but small mistakes can trap you in unwanted recurring charges for months. Rest assured: these pitfalls are easy to avoid once you know them.
Mistake one: uninstalling the app instead of cancelling the subscription
Deleting the Unsubby app from your phone does not cancel your subscription. The subscription remains active at the payment source (Apple, Google Play, or your bank), and you will continue to be charged. You must explicitly cancel the subscription through your payment account, not just delete the app.
Mistake two: assuming Unsubby can cancel app store subscriptions
Many users contact Unsubby expecting them to cancel an app store subscription, not realizing Unsubby cannot access Apple ID or Google Play accounts. If your subscription is billed through an app store, you must cancel it yourself in that app store. Unsubby can only help with direct merchant subscriptions.
Mistake three: not keeping cancellation records
If you email your cancellation request to Unsubby, save your draft email, the delivery receipt, and any response you receive. If Unsubby disputes your cancellation later or continues charging you, these records are your proof. At Yafee, we have seen consumers lose refund disputes because they could not prove they had sent a cancellation request.
Mistake four: waiting too long to follow up
If you do not see a cancellation confirmation within 7 business days, send a follow-up message immediately. Do not wait until you see another charge. The sooner you escalate, the sooner Unsubby must respond.
Should you cancel Unsubby or keep it
Whether to keep or cancel Unsubby depends on your specific situation and how much you use it. This section helps you make that decision.
Reasons to keep Unsubby
You might keep Unsubby if you manage multiple subscriptions and find their registered mail service genuinely useful for merchants who do not offer online cancellation. If Unsubby provides documented proof that your cancellation was submitted (which helps you win chargeback disputes), this value may justify their fee. Additionally, if you are dealing with a merchant in a jurisdiction outside Canada that does not respond to email, Unsubby's postal service might be your only option.
Reasons to cancel Unsubby
You should cancel Unsubby if you signed up primarily to cancel a single subscription, since the fee typically costs more than simply calling the merchant or sending your own registered letter. If Unsubby has not resolved your cancellation request within their promised timeline, cancel immediately and pursue a refund. Most importantly, cancel if you realize you can handle subscription management yourself - which most Canadian consumers can, thanks to clear online account portals and email customer service.
Common traps and red flags to watch for
As a consumer, you should recognize when a subscription service or third-party cancellation company is trying to lock you in or hide its terms. Yafee has documented patterns that harm consumers.
Red flag one: cancellation fees that match the subscription cost
If Unsubby charges CAD $16-18 to cancel a subscription that costs CAD $15-20 per month, the fee negates most of the savings you would get from cancelling early. This is a sign that using Unsubby may not be economical; cancel directly instead.
Red flag two: vague promises of refunds
If Unsubby promises a refund only if a merchant "confirms" cancellation but does not define what that means or how long it takes, you may never receive your refund. Request written clarification of Unsubby's refund terms before you pay.
Red flag three: repeated billing after cancellation
If you cancelled Unsubby but charges continue to appear on your statement, this suggests Unsubby did not fully cancel your subscription on their systems. Contact your bank immediately to place a stop on further charges and request a refund for all unauthorized recurring fees.
Comparison of cancellation methods for canadian consumers
The table below compares the main ways to cancel a subscription in Canada, including Unsubby, so you can choose the fastest and cheapest option for your situation.
| Method | Cost | Speed | Proof of cancellation | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Direct merchant (email or phone) | Free | 1-2 days | Email confirmation or call notes | Most subscriptions |
| Direct merchant (online account portal) | Free | Instant | Automatic confirmation email | Subscriptions with self-service portals |
| Unsubby or similar service | CAD $16-18 | 5-10 business days | Service provider confirmation letter | Merchants requiring registered mail; unresponsive to direct contact |
| Registered mail (DIY) | CAD $12-15 | 5-10 business days | Canada Post proof of delivery | Merchants requiring formal notice; you want full control |
| Chargeback (via your bank) | Free | 30-60 days | Bank dispute resolution letter | Merchant refuses to cancel or issue refund |
How to request a refund from Unsubby
If Unsubby has failed to deliver results or you have changed your mind about using their service, you have the right to request a refund. This section walks you through the process.
Refund eligibility and timeframes
Unsubby's refund policy is not publicly detailed on their website, so you must contact them to learn their specific terms. Generally, third-party cancellation services offer refunds if they fail to submit your cancellation request or if the merchant does not honour the cancellation within a stated period (typically 30 days). Request your refund in writing so you have proof of your request and Unsubby's response.
How to request a refund
- Gather your proof of purchase (receipt, payment confirmation, or bank statement showing the charge).
- Gather any documentation from Unsubby showing their failure to cancel your subscription (or a written statement of your cancellation attempt).
- Draft a refund request email that includes:
- Your account name and email address.
- Your payment reference number or transaction ID.
- The exact amount you paid (in CAD).
- A brief explanation of why you are requesting a refund (for example, "Unsubby failed to cancel my subscription with [merchant name] within 10 business days as promised").
- A clear statement: "I request a full refund of CAD $[amount] to my account."
- The current date and your signature (or full name).
- Send your refund request to Unsubby's customer service email address via email with read receipt enabled.
- Wait 10 business days for a response.
- If Unsubby does not respond or refuses to refund you, file a chargeback with your credit card issuer or dispute the charge with your bank.
Be persistent. Many companies count on customers giving up; a documented, professional refund request often succeeds on the second or third attempt.

Real reviews from canadian consumers who cancelled Unsubby
Consumer feedback reveals both the strengths and limitations of Unsubby for Canadian users. Here is what real people report.
What users appreciate
Canadian users report that Unsubby's registered mail service is valuable when merchants do not respond to email or phone calls. Some users praise the documented proof of cancellation submission, which helps if they later dispute charges with their bank. For consumers juggling multiple subscriptions, Unsubby's centralized interface saves time on research and email drafting.
What users criticize
The most common complaint is that Unsubby's fee sometimes costs as much as one month of the subscription itself, making the service uneconomical for low-cost subscriptions. Users also report delays and lack of transparency about why cancellations take 5-10 days. Many consumers say they would have cancelled directly if they had known how simple it was.
The pattern across reviews
Five-star reviews typically come from users dealing with genuinely difficult merchants who require registered mail. One-star and two-star reviews come from consumers who could have cancelled directly or through an app store portal and feel they wasted money on Unsubby's fee. This suggests Unsubby works well only for a specific subset of Canadian subscribers.
Summary: why cancel Unsubby and what to do next
Unsubby serves a real purpose for Canadian consumers dealing with merchants who refuse online cancellation. However, for the majority of subscriptions, cancelling directly with the merchant is faster, free, and equally valid under Canadian consumer protection law. Your provincial consumer protection rules guarantee you the right to cancel as easily as you signed up.
If you are ready to cancel Unsubby, follow the step-by-step process that matches how you signed up: through Apple, Google Play, or directly on Unsubby's website. Keep all cancellation records and monitor your statements for 30 days after cancellation. If Unsubby refuses to cancel or continues billing you, use your bank's chargeback process to recover your money.
