Frequently asked questions
Cancel Bella and Duke: The Right Way
How to cancel your Bella and Duke subscription and protect your money
Why cancelling Bella and Duke matters to your wallet
Bella and Duke is a UK-based raw dog food delivery service that sends frozen, personalised meals directly to your door each month. If you've signed up for their subscription, you're locked into a recurring payment cycle that can cost anywhere from £60 to £250 per month, depending on your dog's size and dietary needs. Every month you remain subscribed without using the service is money leaving your account unnecessarily.
At Yafee, we believe every consumer deserves clarity on how to exit a subscription without friction or hidden charges. This guide walks you through your exact cancellation options, your rights under UK consumer law, and the smartest way to protect yourself from unexpected charges. Yafee has helped thousands of consumers take back control of their subscriptions, and we're here to do the same for you.
The real cost of delay
Many customers delay cancelling because they're unsure of the process, worried about being charged for the next delivery, or uncertain whether they'll receive a refund. Stopping a subscription shouldn't require detective work. The longer you wait to cancel, the more frozen raw food parcels arrive at your door, and the more your account is charged. Taking action today stops the bleed.
What you'll learn in this guide
We cover your consumer rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, the exact cancellation methods available to you, how to claim a refund if you're entitled to one, and the common mistakes that delay or block cancellation. By the end, you'll know precisely how to cancel Bella and Duke and what to do if the company refuses.
Understanding your Bella and Duke subscription and pricing
Before you cancel, it helps to know exactly what you've committed to and how Bella and Duke calculates your monthly charge.
How Bella and Duke pricing works
Bella and Duke does not use standard subscription tiers. Instead, they personalise pricing based on your dog's weight, age, breed, and activity level. When you signed up, their online calculator estimated your dog's daily feeding requirements and set a price accordingly. This means your neighbour might pay £80 per month while you pay £180, depending entirely on the size of your pet.
Deliveries typically arrive every 2 to 4 weeks, giving you a rolling supply of frozen meals. Your payment is charged automatically before each delivery ships, and this cycle continues until you formally cancel the subscription.
Typical monthly costs by dog size
| Dog size | Monthly cost range | Delivery frequency |
|---|---|---|
| Small (under 10kg) | £60 to £90 | Every 3 to 4 weeks |
| Medium (10 to 25kg) | £90 to £150 | Every 2 to 3 weeks |
| Large (25kg and above) | £150 to £250+ | Every 2 weeks |
Flexibility within the subscription
Bella and Duke does allow you to pause deliveries temporarily, adjust portion sizes, or change delivery frequency. However, these modifications keep your subscription active. A pause is not a cancellation. If you're thinking of stopping permanently, pausing won't help you because charges will resume when the pause expires. You need to cancel outright if you want the payments to stop for good.
Your consumer rights and what they mean for you
UK consumer law gives you strong protections when dealing with subscription services, and understanding these rights is your strongest lever if Bella and Duke makes cancellation difficult.
The consumer rights act 2015 and your protection
Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, you have the right to cancel most distance contracts (like online subscriptions) within 14 days of purchase, provided you haven't received the goods yet. However, with a recurring subscription service like Bella and Duke, your first cancellation window runs for 14 days from when you first place an order. After that initial window, you can still cancel at any point, but you must follow the company's formal cancellation process and provide reasonable notice.
The law also protects you if Bella and Duke fails to provide services as described, charges your account without proper authorisation, or makes cancellation deliberately difficult or hidden. If you encounter resistance, the Consumer Rights Act 2015 is your legal foundation for escalation.
Your legal position
You have the right to cancel your Bella and Duke subscription at any time after the initial 14-day window, provided you give reasonable notice (typically 7 to 30 days, depending on Bella and Duke's terms). You cannot be charged for cancellation itself. If Bella and Duke continues to charge you after you've submitted a valid cancellation request, you can dispute the charge with your bank or payment provider under the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977. If the company refuses to cancel or ignores your request, you can escalate to the Citizens Advice Consumer Service, which can investigate the breach and force compliance.
When to involve a regulator
If Bella and Duke fails to process your cancellation within 7 days of your written request, refuses to confirm cancellation in writing, or continues to charge you after you've cancelled, contact the Citizens Advice Consumer Service. This organisation investigates complaints about unfair trading practices and can compel the company to refund you and cease charges. Keep copies of all cancellation requests, emails, and payment evidence. At Yafee, we recommend documenting every step so you have proof if you need to escalate.
How to cancel your Bella and Duke subscription
Bella and Duke offers multiple cancellation methods, and your choice depends on your preference and the speed you need.
Step 1: cancel through the Bella and Duke website or app
- Log into your Bella and Duke account at www.bellaandduke.com or open the mobile app.
- Navigate to your account settings or "My Subscriptions" section.
- Locate your active subscription and select "Cancel Subscription" or "Manage Plan".
- Review any final charges that will be applied before the cancellation takes effect.
- Confirm your cancellation request and wait for a confirmation email within 24 hours.
- Keep this email as proof of cancellation for your records.
This method is the fastest and creates an instant digital trail. You will receive a confirmation email within 24 hours that shows the exact date your subscription ends and whether any refund will be processed.
Step 2: cancel by telephone
- Find Bella and Duke's customer service phone number on their website or your account statement.
- Call during business hours and ask to speak with a customer service representative about cancellation.
- Provide your account number and the email address linked to your subscription.
- Clearly state that you want to cancel immediately, not pause the subscription.
- Ask for a cancellation confirmation number and the exact date the subscription will end.
- Request that the representative email you a written confirmation within 24 hours.
Always note the date and time of your call, the name of the representative you spoke to, and any confirmation number they provide. This protects you if Bella and Duke later disputes that you cancelled.
Step 3: cancel by post
- Write a brief letter stating your name, account email address, order number, and the date you want the subscription to end.
- Include the phrase: "I hereby cancel my Bella and Duke subscription effective immediately."
- Do not include bank details or payment card information in the letter.
- Send the letter by Royal Mail Special Delivery to the address below (see "Contact and cancellation address" section).
- Keep the Royal Mail receipt as proof of posting.
- Wait 7 to 10 days for Bella and Duke to confirm your cancellation by email or post.
Postal cancellation creates a physical record. Royal Mail Special Delivery provides a tracked proof of delivery, which protects you if Bella and Duke claims they never received your letter.
Step 4: cancel by email
- Send an email from the email address linked to your Bella and Duke account.
- Use the subject line: "Cancellation Request: [Your Account Email]".
- In the body, state your full name, account email, order number, and request cancellation effective immediately.
- Do not attach bank details or payment card information.
- Send the email to the customer service address listed on Bella and Duke's website or your account statement.
- Request a read receipt so you have proof the email was delivered.
- Keep the email and read receipt for your records.
Email provides a written record, but it is less secure than Royal Mail Special Delivery because Bella and Duke may claim they did not receive it. Combine email with a phone call if you want maximum certainty.
What happens after you cancel
Understanding the timeline and what to expect prevents unnecessary worry after you've submitted your cancellation request.
The cancellation timeline
Once you submit your cancellation request, Bella and Duke must process it within 7 days. If you cancel before your next delivery is dispatched, that delivery should not be charged to your account. However, if your cancellation request arrives after the next delivery has already been prepared and shipped, you will be charged for that delivery, but no further charges will apply.
Check your email for a cancellation confirmation within 24 to 48 hours. This email should state the exact date your subscription ends and confirm that no further charges will be made. If you do not receive this confirmation within 48 hours, send a follow-up email or call customer service to request written confirmation.
Checking your account after cancellation
- Log into your Bella and Duke account 48 hours after you submit your cancellation request.
- Look for a status change on your subscription (it should show "Cancelled" or "Inactive").
- Check that no new delivery is scheduled for the next 4 weeks.
- Review your billing history to confirm that no charges have been made since you cancelled.
- If you see a charge after cancellation, contact your bank immediately and dispute it under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.
What if Bella and Duke charges you after cancellation
If you are charged after your cancellation date has passed, this is a breach of the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Contact your bank or payment provider immediately and raise a chargeback or dispute. Explain that you formally cancelled your subscription and Bella and Duke continued to charge without authorisation. Your bank should reverse the charge within 5 to 10 working days. Simultaneously, email Bella and Duke with a copy of your cancellation confirmation and demand an immediate refund. If Bella and Duke does not refund the charge within 7 days, escalate to the Citizens Advice Consumer Service.
Refunds, timing, and what you're entitled to
Your refund eligibility depends on when you cancel and whether you've already received the goods for which you've been charged.
Refund eligibility and timelines
If you cancel within 14 days of your first order and have not yet received any delivery, you are entitled to a full refund of your subscription payment. Bella and Duke must process this refund within 14 days of your cancellation request. If you have already received one or more deliveries, you are not entitled to a refund for those goods under the distance selling rules, because you have "received" the contract goods. You are, however, entitled to a refund for any charges made after your cancellation date has passed.
If you cancel after the 14-day initial window and your next delivery has not yet shipped, you will not be refunded for the current billing cycle. However, you will not be charged for any deliveries scheduled after your cancellation date.
How to claim a refund
- Gather your cancellation confirmation email and a copy of your cancellation request.
- Email Bella and Duke's customer service with the subject: "Refund Request: [Your Account Email]".
- Attach a copy of your cancellation confirmation and state the amount you are requesting back.
- Explain the reason (e.g., "Cancelled within 14 days and have not received a delivery").
- Ask for confirmation of the refund amount and the expected processing date.
- Keep copies of all correspondence.
Bella and Duke must process refunds within 14 days of your cancellation request. If they do not, contact your bank and raise a chargeback. This tells your bank that Bella and Duke failed to fulfil its legal obligation, and your bank will recover the money on your behalf.
Disputed refunds
If Bella and Duke refuses to refund you within 14 days, or claims you are not entitled to a refund, escalate to the Citizens Advice Consumer Service with copies of your cancellation request, their refusal, and your bank statement showing the charge. The Citizens Advice Consumer Service can investigate whether Bella and Duke's refund policy complies with the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and can force the company to refund you if it does not.
Common mistakes that delay or block cancellation
Cancellation should be straightforward, but a few common errors can delay the process or leave you still paying charges. We've seen these mistakes countless times, and they're easily avoidable.
Pausing instead of cancelling
The biggest mistake is pausing your subscription instead of cancelling it. Bella and Duke's website may prominently feature a "Pause" button because paused subscriptions resume automatically and generate future revenue. If you pause for 30 days, your subscription restarts on day 31, and you will be charged. If you want to stop permanently, you must cancel, not pause.
Not requesting written confirmation
If you cancel by phone or in-app, always request written confirmation by email. A verbal cancellation is difficult to prove if Bella and Duke later claims you did not cancel. Written confirmation provides legal proof that you submitted a valid cancellation request on a specific date.
Cancelling too close to your next delivery date
If you cancel after your next delivery has been prepared or dispatched, you will still be charged for that delivery. Check the date of your next scheduled delivery before you cancel. If it's within 2 to 3 days, cancel immediately by phone or in-app to ensure the charge is stopped in time.
Not checking for ongoing charges after cancellation
After you've cancelled, check your bank statement weekly for the next 4 weeks to ensure no further charges have been applied. If Bella and Duke continues to charge after your cancellation date, you have grounds to dispute the charge and claim a refund.
Contact and cancellation address

Why you should cancel now if the service no longer works for you
Subscription services depend on inertia. They succeed because consumers delay cancellation, forget they're paying, or give up when the process is unclear. Every week you delay is a week's worth of charges you could have avoided. At Yafee, we've supported thousands of consumers who regretted waiting to cancel, only to find months of unwanted charges on their statements.
If Bella and Duke no longer meets your dog's needs, you've found a cheaper alternative, or your circumstances have changed, there is no benefit to staying subscribed. Cancellation is your right under consumer law, and Bella and Duke is legally required to process your request without obstruction.
Use the method that feels most secure to you. If you choose online cancellation, request written confirmation. If you choose post, use Royal Mail Special Delivery. Either way, act today. Yafee has helped thousands of consumers cancel unwanted subscriptions and reclaim control of their finances. Follow this guide, keep your cancellation proof, and you will have no trouble exiting Bella and Duke.
