How to cancel Cleeng and stop recurring charges in canada

What Cleeng is and why you might want to cancel

Cleeng is a billing and access platform that publishers and broadcasters use to process subscriptions and pay-per-view video transactions. You do not subscribe directly to Cleeng itself; rather, you purchase access through a broadcaster's website or mobile app, and Cleeng handles payment processing and manages your subscription renewal behind the scenes. If you have been charged for a Cleeng subscription you no longer want, or if the reason for your recurring billing remains unclear, cancellation is straightforward once you identify where you made your purchase.

At Yafee, we help Canadian consumers understand their cancellation rights and regain control over unwanted subscriptions. Whether you purchased through a broadcaster's website, Apple's App Store, or Google Play, Yafee walks you through every step so you cancel before the next charge appears on your account.

Why people cancel Cleeng

You might cancel because you have finished a series, lost interest in a broadcaster's content, or want to reduce your monthly expenses. Others cancel because they were charged for a pay-per-view event that did not occur or a stream that failed to deliver. Whatever your reason, cancellation stops future renewals and returns control of your billing to you.

When you should act

The sooner you cancel, the sooner you prevent the next charge. Most subscriptions renew automatically on the same date each month. If your next billing date falls within 5 days and you have not cancelled, you will be charged again. Check your bank or credit card statement right now to identify when your next charge is due, then cancel before that date arrives.

Your consumer protection rights in canada

Canadian consumer law protects you when you purchase digital subscriptions online. You must understand these protections before you cancel.

What canadian law says about subscriptions and automatic renewal

Canada's Competition Act and provincial consumer protection laws (including Ontario's Consumer Protection Act and British Columbia's Business Practices and Consumer Protection Act) require businesses to disclose their cancellation and refund terms clearly. Broadcasters and Cleeng must inform you of:

• The exact date your subscription will renew
• The amount you will be charged on renewal
• How to cancel before the next charge takes effect
• Whether refunds are available and under what conditions

If a broadcaster or Cleeng conceals these terms or makes cancellation deliberately difficult, you have grounds to file a complaint with your provincial consumer authority. In Ontario, contact the ServiceOntario Consumer Protection line; in British Columbia, contact the BC Office of the Attorney General Consumer Protection office. Keep screenshots of your subscription terms and cancellation page as proof, should you need to dispute a charge later.

Your right to cancel before automatic renewal

You hold the legal right to cancel a digital subscription before it automatically renews. Broadcasters must make cancellation as straightforward as signing up. If you can subscribe with one click, you must be able to cancel with one click or a simple process. Burying cancellation, requiring a phone call, or extending the process beyond five minutes constitutes a dark pattern-and you can report it to your provincial consumer authority.

Refund eligibility under canadian law

Canadian law does not require businesses to offer refunds for change of mind on digital products you have already used or accessed. However, you are entitled to a refund if the service is defective, does not work as advertised (such as constant streaming failures), or if the service was misrepresented (the description was inaccurate or misleading). Certain provinces also provide cooling-off periods for digital purchases; check your provincial consumer protection act for specific timeframes.

Your legal position

Under the Competition Act (federal) and your province's consumer protection legislation, you have the right to cancel without penalty before your next scheduled charge. Cleeng and the broadcaster cannot charge you for cancellation, impose early-termination fees, or demand compensation. If they do, you can lodge a complaint with the Competition Bureau (federal) or your provincial consumer protection authority at no cost.

Where you purchased Cleeng and your cancellation method

Your cancellation path depends on where you made your purchase. Cleeng operates as a payment processor, so you must cancel through the platform where you originally signed up, not through Cleeng directly.

Purchases through a broadcaster's website or app

If you signed up directly on a broadcaster's website or mobile app (such as CTV, Sportsnet, or another Canadian media outlet), you cancel through that same platform. Log into your account on the broadcaster's site, navigate to your subscription or account settings, and select cancel or unsubscribe. Most broadcasters display a "Manage Subscription" link in your account menu.

Purchases through apple's app store

If you subscribed through an iOS app (iPhone or iPad), you manage the subscription through Apple's App Store. Cleeng processes the payment, but Apple controls the subscription settings. You must cancel or downgrade your subscription in the App Store, not in the broadcaster's app itself.

Purchases through google play

If you subscribed through an Android app, you manage the subscription through Google Play. Similar to Apple, Google processes the subscription settings even though Cleeng handles the billing backend. You must cancel or modify your subscription in Google Play.

Step-by-step cancellation instructions

Follow the specific steps that match where you made your purchase to cancel your Cleeng subscription before your next charge.

Cancel a Cleeng subscription on a broadcaster's website

1. Log into your account on the broadcaster's website using your email and password.
2. Navigate to your account settings or profile menu, usually located in the top-right corner or under "My Account."
   • Look for links labeled "Subscription," "Billing," "Payment Methods," or "Manage Subscription."
3. Locate your active Cleeng subscription in your subscription list.
4. Select the "Cancel," "Unsubscribe," or "Stop Renewal" button next to your subscription.
5. Confirm your cancellation when prompted. Most platforms ask you to confirm a second time to prevent accidental cancellation.
6. Screenshot the cancellation confirmation page immediately. This serves as your proof of cancellation.
7. Check your email for a cancellation confirmation message from the broadcaster within 24 hours.

Cancel a Cleeng subscription on apple's app store

1. Open the App Store app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
2. Tap or click your profile icon in the top-right corner.
3. Select "Subscriptions" from the menu.
4. Find the subscription you want to cancel (the broadcaster's app or service name will appear here).
5. Tap or click the subscription name to view its details.
6. Tap or click "Cancel Subscription" or "Edit Subscription."
7. Follow the on-screen prompts to confirm cancellation.
8. Take a screenshot of the cancellation confirmation.

Cancel a Cleeng subscription on google play

1. Open the Google Play app on your Android device.
2. Tap your profile icon in the top-right corner.
3. Select "Payments and subscriptions" or "Manage subscriptions."
4. Tap "Subscriptions."
5. Find the subscription you want to cancel and tap its name.
6. Tap "Cancel Subscription" or "Unsubscribe."
7. Choose your cancellation reason from the list provided (optional but helpful for feedback).
8. Confirm cancellation and take a screenshot of the confirmation page.

Cancel a Cleeng subscription via direct email (if web cancellation fails)

If you cannot cancel through the broadcaster's website or app, contact the broadcaster's customer support team directly. Yafee recommends sending a cancellation request via email to their customer service address. In your email, include your account email address, subscription date, and the amount charged. Request written confirmation of cancellation and note the date you sent the email. Keep the email exchange as proof.

After you cancel your Cleeng subscription

Cancellation takes effect immediately in most cases, but access may continue until your current billing cycle ends. Understanding what happens next prevents confusion and dispute.

When your access ends

In most cases, you retain access to the service until the end of your current billing period. If you paid on the 1st of the month and cancel on the 15th, you usually keep access until the 1st of the following month, when the next charge would have occurred. However, some broadcasters revoke access immediately upon cancellation. Check the cancellation confirmation page for the exact end date of your access.

Confirm that no future charges occur

Monitor your bank or credit card statement for 30 days after cancellation. Verify that no new charges from Cleeng or the broadcaster appear. If a charge appears after your cancellation date, contact your bank immediately and report it as unauthorized. Yafee recommends setting a phone reminder for one week before your old renewal date, then checking your account to confirm the subscription is gone.

Request a refund if you were charged after cancellation

If you cancelled but were still charged, you have two options. First, contact the broadcaster's customer support team with your cancellation confirmation (the screenshot you took) and request a refund. Most broadcasters issue refunds within 5 to 10 business days if you provide proof of cancellation. Second, if the broadcaster refuses, contact your bank or credit card company and dispute the charge as unauthorized. Your bank will investigate and likely reverse the charge in your favour.

Common mistakes that delay or prevent cancellation

Cancellation is simple when you follow the right path, but a few common errors can delay the process or leave your subscription active by accident. Stay focused on your specific cancellation channel to avoid these traps.

Cancelling through the wrong platform

The most frequent error is attempting to cancel through Cleeng directly. Cleeng has no consumer-facing website where you can manage your subscription. If you signed up through the broadcaster's app, do not attempt to cancel in the broadcaster's web browser-return to the same app. If you signed up through Apple's App Store, cancelling in the broadcaster's app will not work; you must cancel in the App Store itself. Match your cancellation channel to your purchase channel exactly.

Assuming cancellation happened without confirmation

After you click "Cancel," always wait for a confirmation page or confirmation email. Some platforms require a second confirmation click. If you close the page before confirmation appears, your cancellation may not have processed. Take a screenshot of the final confirmation screen and save any confirmation email you receive within 24 hours.

Cancelling after the renewal date

If you cancel after your subscription has already renewed, you will be charged for another full cycle. Check your billing date now and cancel at least one day before that date. If you miss the deadline, you can request a refund from the broadcaster or dispute the charge with your bank.

Forgetting to cancel across multiple platforms

If you subscribed to the same broadcaster's app on both iOS and Android, or on both the website and the app, you must cancel each subscription separately. One cancellation does not automatically cancel all versions. Log into each platform and confirm cancellation on each one.

Refund options and how to request one

Refunds are not automatic, but you have clear grounds to request one in specific circumstances under Canadian consumer law.

When you qualify for a refund

You can request a refund if the service failed to work as described (defective service), the broadcaster misrepresented the content or features, or if your province's consumer protection law provides a cooling-off period for digital purchases (typically 7 to 14 days from purchase date). Cancellation alone does not entitle you to a refund under federal law, but provincial law may differ. Check your provincial consumer protection act online.

How to request a refund

1. Contact the broadcaster's customer support team via email or phone.
2. Provide your account email, subscription start date, amount charged, and reason for the refund request (service defect, misrepresentation, or cooling-off period eligibility).
3. Attach screenshots of the subscription terms, the service failure (if applicable), and your cancellation confirmation.
4. Send your request within 30 days of the charge for the fastest response.
5. Expect a response within 5 to 10 business days.
6. If the broadcaster refuses without valid reason, contact your provincial consumer authority or file a dispute with your bank.

Disputing a charge with your bank

If the broadcaster denies your refund and you believe the charge was unauthorized or fraudulent, you can dispute the charge with your bank or credit card issuer. Contact your bank's fraud or disputes department and provide your cancellation confirmation and any refund request emails. Your bank will investigate within 60 days and typically reverse the charge in your favour. There is no cost to file a dispute, and the process protects you if the broadcaster continues to charge you after cancellation.

Contact the broadcaster if you need additional help

If you encounter resistance during cancellation, contact the broadcaster's customer support team directly. Most Canadian broadcasters provide email support and a customer service phone line during business hours. When you contact them, have your account email, subscription date, and billing amount ready. Provide them with your cancellation confirmation screenshot and request written confirmation that your subscription has been cancelled and no future charges will occur.

If the broadcaster does not respond within 10 business days or refuses to cancel without valid reason, file a complaint with your provincial consumer protection authority. In Ontario, contact ServiceOntario Consumer Protection at 1-800-889-9768. In British Columbia, contact the BC Office of the Attorney General Consumer Protection office at 1-888-564-9963. These agencies investigate complaints at no cost to you and can force a broadcaster to comply with cancellation requests.
