How to cancel your Keto Diet subscription and stop recurring charges
Understanding your Keto Diet subscription and your cancellation rights
Your Keto Diet is a subscription-based nutrition service that delivers personalised ketogenic meal plans, recipes, and dietary guidance to your account on a recurring basis. You pay a fixed fee at regular intervals-typically monthly or annually-to access digital meal planning resources and nutritional support designed for the ketogenic lifestyle. Since Your Keto Diet operates as a distance selling contract, you are protected by UK consumer law, and Yafee is here to ensure you understand exactly what those protections mean for your cancellation rights.
The service works through a rolling subscription model where funds are debited from your bank account on a regular schedule. Understanding how to cancel properly matters because your statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 are substantial, but they only protect you if you follow the correct procedure. Many subscribers accidentally forfeit refunds or fail to stop charges because they do not cancel the right way. This guide walks you through the legal framework, the cancellation methods, and the steps you need to take to exit without losing money or facing unnecessary delays.
Your statutory rights under UK consumer law
When you subscribe to Your Keto Diet online, you enter into a distance selling contract governed by the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013. You have a legal right to cancel within 14 calendar days of purchase-this is your cooling-off period-without paying any penalty or giving any reason. This right exists regardless of what Your Keto Diet's terms and conditions say. The right is automatic and non-negotiable under UK law.
After your 14-day cooling-off period expires, you can still cancel, but the terms depend on your contract type. If you subscribed to a rolling monthly plan, you can cancel with 30 days' notice. If you committed to a fixed-term plan (quarterly or annual), early termination may involve financial penalties under contract law-but these penalties must be "reasonable" and proportionate to the company's actual loss. Should Your Keto Diet refuse to honour these rights or claim you cannot cancel, the Citizens Advice Consumer Service and the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) are your escalation points.
Why you might cancel your subscription
Subscribers cancel Your Keto Diet for many reasons: meal plans do not suit their lifestyle, they have reached their fitness goals, costs stack up faster than expected, or they have found a cheaper alternative. Some cancel because the service does not deliver the personalisation promised. Others need to tighten their budget or have switched to a different nutrition approach. Whatever your reason, you deserve a transparent, stress-free cancellation process. Yafee is committed to walking you through it step by step, ensuring you keep your refunds and avoid hidden charges.
Your Keto Diet subscription pricing and plan types
Your Keto Diet offers multiple subscription tiers, each with different pricing, contract lengths, and cancellation terms.
Before you cancel, understanding which plan you are on is essential-it directly affects your notice period, whether you face early termination charges, and what refunds you are entitled to receive. The table below outlines the typical plans and their key terms:
| Plan type |

If you are on a monthly rolling plan, you can cancel without financial penalty by giving 30 days' notice. If you committed to a quarterly or annual plan, early exit may trigger fees-but Yafee advises that these must reflect genuine losses, not arbitrary charges. Check your sign-up confirmation email to confirm which plan you selected.
How to cancel your Keto Diet subscription
Your Keto Diet permits cancellation through two primary methods: online through your account dashboard or by sending a written request to their postal address.
Cancellation method 1: online via your account dashboard
The fastest way to cancel is through your Your Keto Diet account. Follow these steps:
- Log into your Your Keto Diet account using your email and password.
- If you cannot remember your password, use the "Forgot password" link on the login page.
- Check your email (including spam folder) for the reset link.
- Navigate to "Account settings" or "Subscription management"-the exact label depends on the platform.
- This is typically located in the top menu or under your profile icon.
- Look for a section labelled "Billing", "Plans", or "Membership".
- Select "Manage subscription" or "Cancel subscription".
- You may be asked why you are cancelling-provide a reason or select "Other".
- This feedback helps the company improve, but your reason does not affect your right to cancel.
- Confirm your cancellation request.
- The system should display a confirmation message and issue a confirmation number or email.
- Save or screenshot this confirmation-you will need it if any charges continue or a dispute arises.
- Verify that no further charges appear on your bank statement.
- Check your account 3-5 business days after cancellation to ensure the next recurring charge is blocked.
- If charges continue, escalate immediately using the refund process outlined below.
Cancellation method 2: written request by post
If you prefer to cancel by post or if you cannot access your online account, send a written request to Your Keto Diet's registered address. This method creates a paper trail and is particularly useful if you later need to prove you sent a cancellation request.
- Prepare a letter or email containing the following information:
- Your full name as it appears on your account.
- Your email address or account number.
- The email address registered to Your Keto Diet.
- A clear statement: "I request cancellation of my Your Keto Diet subscription effective immediately" or "effective [date 30 days from now]".
- The date you are sending the request.
- Your signature (if posting a letter).
- Post your letter or send your email to Your Keto Diet's customer service address.
- For postal requests, use Royal Mail Special Delivery (Guaranteed by 9am next working day) for proof of delivery.
- For email, request a read receipt or send to the cancellation email address listed on your invoice.
- Retain proof of posting or email delivery.
- Save the Royal Mail receipt or email delivery confirmation in a safe folder.
- This proves when Your Keto Diet received your cancellation request.
- Monitor your bank account for 7-10 working days.
- Verify that no further charges appear after the cancellation effective date.
- If charges continue, contact the company immediately and provide your proof of request.
Cancellation address for Your Keto Diet
If you do not have an address on your invoice, contact Your Keto Diet's customer service team before posting. Request the official cancellation address via email or phone. This ensures your letter reaches the correct department and is processed promptly. Yafee recommends keeping a copy of the address you use so you can reference it in any future correspondence.
Your refund rights after cancellation
Your entitlement to a refund depends on when you cancel relative to your cooling-off period and your contract type.
Refund within the 14-day cooling-off period
If you cancel within 14 calendar days of your first purchase, you have an automatic right to a full refund under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013. Your Keto Diet must return all money you have paid, including any trial fees or setup charges, with no deduction or penalty. The company must process your refund within 14 days of receiving your cancellation request. Yafee advises checking your bank account 14-21 days after sending your cancellation request to confirm the refund has arrived.
Refund after the 14-day cooling-off period
Once the cooling-off period expires, your refund entitlement depends on your contract type and when you give notice:
- Monthly rolling plans: You are entitled to cancel with 30 days' notice, and no refund is due for the current month if you have already been charged. However, you should not be charged again after your cancellation effective date.
- Fixed-term plans (quarterly or annual): You may be able to cancel early, but the company can charge a termination fee to cover its genuine losses. Under contract law, this fee must be "reasonable"-not punitive or arbitrary. If the fee seems excessive, you can dispute it with the Citizens Advice Consumer Service.
- Unused credits or pre-paid amounts: If you have paid for meals or meal plans you have not yet received, you may be entitled to a pro-rata refund for the unused portion. Request this in writing if the company does not offer it automatically.
How to claim a refund if none is issued
If Your Keto Diet does not refund you within the promised timeframe, follow these steps:
- Send a written request to Your Keto Diet's customer service, referencing your cancellation confirmation number and the amount owed.
- Allow a further 7 working days for a response.
- If no refund appears, contact your bank and request a chargeback under Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 (if you paid by credit card) or raise a dispute through your bank's direct debit guarantee scheme.
- If the dispute remains unresolved, escalate to the Citizens Advice Consumer Service or the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).
Common cancellation mistakes and how to avoid them
Cancelling a subscription can feel stressful, but most problems are easily avoidable by following a few simple rules. Yafee has helped thousands of consumers cancel their subscriptions without losing money-and understanding these traps will keep you ahead of complications.
Mistake 1: cancelling via email without confirmation
Sending an informal email ("Hi, please cancel my subscription") is risky because you have no proof the company received it or when. Use the online portal or send a formal letter via Royal Mail Special Delivery. If you email, request a read receipt and save the company's reply confirming your cancellation.
Mistake 2: assuming cancellation stops all charges immediately
Most subscriptions do not stop the day you cancel-they stop on your next billing date or 30 days after notice (depending on your plan). If you give notice on the 15th of the month and your billing date is the 1st, you may be charged once more. This is legal. Calculate your exact cancellation effective date and check your bank statement closely around that date.
Mistake 3: not keeping your confirmation number or proof
Always save your cancellation confirmation email, screenshot, confirmation number, or Royal Mail receipt. If the company claims it never received your request, you have evidence. Yafee recommends taking screenshots of your online account showing "Subscription cancelled" status.
Mistake 4: forgetting to unlink your payment method
After cancellation, if you have an old credit or debit card linked to your Your Keto Diet account, remove it. This prevents accidental reactivation or unexpected charges if the company accidentally processes a payment. Log into your account and delete the saved card under "Payment methods".
Mistake 5: ignoring unexpected charges after cancellation
If you spot a charge after your cancellation effective date, do not ignore it. Contact Your Keto Diet immediately and request a refund, referencing your cancellation confirmation. If they do not refund within 7 days, contact your bank. Yafee advises acting quickly because bank chargeback windows close after 120 days.
What happens after your cancellation
Cancelling your subscription triggers a cascade of events, and understanding the timeline will help you know what to expect.
Immediate access and account status
Your access to Your Keto Diet's meal plans and resources typically ends on your cancellation effective date or at the end of your billing cycle (whichever your contract specifies). Some services grant a grace period of a few days; others cut off immediately. Log into your account 24 hours after your cancellation effective date to confirm your access has ended. If you can still access the service after the cancellation effective date, contact customer service to request manual removal.
Final charge and refund timeline
Your final charge (if any) should appear 1-3 business days before your cancellation effective date. Check your bank statement and compare the amount against your subscription plan. If the amount is unexpectedly high or your card is charged after the cancellation effective date, escalate immediately. Refunds for the cooling-off period should arrive within 14 days; refunds for other reasons vary and depend on your bank.
Confirmation emails and receipts
Your Keto Diet should send a cancellation confirmation email within 24 hours of processing your request. This email confirms the cancellation effective date and any final charges or refunds. If you do not receive this email, check your spam folder or log into your account to verify cancellation status. Forward this confirmation to yourself or print it as a backup record.

Your legal position and consumer rights
Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, you are protected as a distance consumer. Your Keto Diet cannot waive these rights, no matter what their terms and conditions say. Yafee summarises your legal position below:
- Right to cancel within 14 days: Automatic, no reason required, full refund due.
- Right to cancel after 14 days: Permitted on rolling plans with 30 days' notice; on fixed-term plans, subject to reasonable early termination fees only.
- Right to transparent pricing: The company must disclose all charges before you purchase, including billing frequency and any trial periods.
- Right to clear cancellation process: The company must offer at least one cancellation method that is as easy as the original purchase method (usually online).
- Right to refund: For items covered by the cooling-off period or unused services on fixed-term plans, you can claim a pro-rata refund.
- Right to escalate: If Your Keto Diet refuses to honour these rights, the Citizens Advice Consumer Service and the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) can investigate and compel compliance.
If Your Keto Diet claims you cannot cancel or refuses to process your request, this is a breach of consumer law. Document all communications and escalate to the ICO, which enforces these rights across the UK.
How to escalate if Your Keto Diet refuses to cancel
In rare cases, companies resist cancellation or claim contractual reasons prevent exit. If this happens to you, follow this escalation path:
Step 1: formal written request
Send Your Keto Diet a formal letter via Royal Mail Special Delivery stating your intention to cancel and citing the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013. Request written confirmation within 7 days. If they respond with a refusal, ask them to cite the specific contract clause that forbids cancellation.
Step 2: citizens advice consumer service escalation
If the company refuses, contact the Citizens Advice Consumer Service by phone or online. They will investigate the company's conduct and attempt to resolve the dispute. This service is free and may result in the company being compelled to honour your cancellation and pay compensation.
Step 3: information commissioner's office (ICO) complaint
If Citizens Advice fails or the company persists in refusing, file a formal complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). The ICO enforces consumer protection law across the UK and has power to levy fines and order refunds. Your complaint triggers an investigation, and the company must respond to the ICO's findings.
Yafee advises keeping copies of all letters, emails, bank statements, and cancellation confirmations. These documents are essential evidence if you need to escalate a dispute.
Checklist for a successful cancellation
Use this checklist to ensure you have covered all the bases:
- [ ] Logged into your Your Keto Diet account and confirmed your current plan type (monthly rolling, quarterly, or annual).
- [ ] Checked the cancellation notice period required by your plan (e.g., 30 days for rolling plans).
- [ ] Calculated your cancellation effective date (today + notice period).
- [ ] Used the online portal to cancel, or sent a formal written request via Royal Mail Special Delivery or registered email.
- [ ] Saved your cancellation confirmation number, email, or Royal Mail receipt.
- [ ] Removed any saved payment methods from your Your Keto Diet account.

- [ ] Escalated to Citizens Advice Consumer Service or the ICO if Your Keto Diet refused to process your cancellation or withhold refunds.
Why consumers choose to keep or cancel their subscriptions
Before you cancel, you may wish to weigh the reasons to stay versus the reasons to leave. Some subscribers pause their subscription instead of cancelling outright, allowing them to return later at no extra cost.
| Reason to keep |
Reason to cancel |
| Personalised meal planning matches your goals |
Meal plans do not suit your taste or lifestyle |
| Recipes are varied and easy to follow |
Limited recipe variety or repetition |
| Customer support is responsive and helpful |
Poor customer service or slow responses |
| Price represents good value for the service |
Cost is too high relative to value |
| You have achieved your nutrition goals |
You have reached your fitness targets |
| Integration with fitness apps is seamless |
Technical glitches or poor app experience |
If cost is your main concern, contact Your Keto Diet's customer service to ask about discounts, loyalty offers, or plan downgrades before cancelling. Many companies prefer to retain subscribers at a lower price rather than lose them entirely. If the service genuinely does not suit you, however, cancellation is the right choice-and Yafee is here to ensure you do it correctly and keep your money.
Summary and next steps
Cancelling Your Keto Diet is straightforward if you follow the legal framework and procedural steps outlined in this guide. You have powerful rights under UK consumer law-the Consumer Rights Act 2015, the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, and the Consumer Credit Act 1974 all protect you. Your 14-day cooling-off period is automatic and non-negotiable; after that, rolling plans require 30 days' notice with no penalty.
The fastest cancellation method is the online portal; the most legally robust is Royal Mail Special Delivery. Whichever method you choose, save your confirmation number or receipt, monitor your bank statement, and escalate to Citizens Advice Consumer Service or the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) if any charges continue after your cancellation effective date.
