Frequently asked questions
Cancel All You Can Books: The Right Way
How to cancel All You Can Books and reclaim control of your reading budget
Understanding All You Can Books and your reasons for cancelling
All You Can Books operates as a subscription service offering unlimited access to thousands of audiobooks and ebooks across multiple genres including fiction, non-fiction, children's literature and self-help titles. The platform appeals to voracious readers who consume multiple titles monthly, providing unlimited downloads at a fixed monthly rate. However, the appeal diminishes when your reading habits shift, when you find the catalogue doesn't meet your needs, or when you realise the monthly cost exceeds the value you extract from the service.
Cancellation is straightforward provided you understand how the service operates and what happens to your access after you cancel. This guide walks you through every step, from identifying your current plan to understanding your consumer rights under UK law.
How All You Can Books content access works
Once you download a book to your device, you can read it offline. However, your access to downloaded content remains conditional on your active subscription. When you cancel, your ability to read previously downloaded material expires, even if you downloaded it weeks or months earlier. This differs fundamentally from purchasing ebooks outright via Amazon or Apple Books, where you own the content permanently. Understanding this critical distinction before cancelling ensures you don't lose access to titles you intended to finish reading.
Why subscribers typically cancel
The most common reason is cost-to-use mismatch. If you download fewer than one or two titles monthly, you're paying more than the value of equivalent purchases. A second driver is catalogue frustration. All You Can Books emphasises backlist titles and independent publishers rather than current bestsellers, which limits appeal for readers seeking the latest releases. A third is competition. Scribd, Kindle Unlimited and traditional library apps often offer superior title availability or features at comparable or lower cost. Understanding your specific reason helps you decide whether cancellation is the right choice or whether a temporary pause might suit you better.
Current subscription pricing and plan structures
All You Can Books structures pricing around unlimited access tiers, with costs varying based on your current plan and whether you benefit from promotional discounts.
| Plan tier | Monthly cost (GBP) | Simultaneous downloads | Library access | Sharing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Basic monthly | £9.99 to £14.99 | Limited (typically 5) | Standard library | Single user |
| Premium monthly | £19.99 to £24.99 | Unlimited | Full library plus exclusives | Family sharing |
| Annual (discounted) | £99 to £199 upfront | Varies by tier | Varies by tier | Varies by tier |
Promotional pricing and hidden cost increases
New subscribers frequently join via limited-time offers such as three months for £9.99 or a discounted first month at £0.99. Note carefully when your promotional period ends, as your monthly charge then jumps to the standard rate without warning. This sudden increase catches many subscribers off-guard and drives numerous cancellations. Check your account dashboard immediately to identify your promotion end date and what you will be charged thereafter.
Annual subscriptions lock you into a longer commitment with cash paid upfront. Whilst the monthly equivalent appears cheaper, cancelling mid-term may trigger unfavourable refund terms. Yafee recommend reviewing your annual subscription terms before committing, as the financial commitment is substantial and cancellation rights may be limited compared to monthly plans.
Deciding whether to cancel or pause your subscription
Cancellation is permanent and immediate, whereas some services offer temporary suspension. Before you cancel permanently, consider whether a pause better suits your circumstances.
Reasons to cancel rather than pause
Cancel if you genuinely no longer want the service and do not intend to return. Cancellation ends all charges immediately and terminates your contractual relationship with All You Can Books. You regain full control over your money without ongoing obligations. Cancellation is appropriate if you have found a competing service that better meets your needs, or if your budget no longer accommodates a reading subscription.
When temporary pause makes better sense
A temporary pause suits readers experiencing a temporary cash shortage or those taking a break from reading for a defined period (such as three months). However, you must verify in advance whether All You Can Books offers pause functionality and what conditions apply. Contact their customer support team to confirm pause duration limits, whether you retain your account and settings, and what happens when your pause expires. Many services automatically resume charging after a pause period, so clarify this beforehand to avoid unexpected charges.
Step-by-step cancellation instructions for All You Can Books
All You Can Books does not process cancellations via postal mail. You must initiate cancellation through your online account or by contacting their customer support team directly.
Step 1: locate your account settings
- Open the All You Can Books website or mobile application
- Log in using your email address and password
- Navigate to "Account" or "Account Settings" (location varies by app version and device type)
- Look for a "Subscription," "Membership" or "Billing" section
If you cannot locate your account settings or the cancellation option does not appear in your dashboard, proceed to Step 2 to contact customer support directly.
Step 2: check for self-service cancellation
- Within your subscription section, look for an option such as "Cancel subscription," "Cancel membership" or "End subscription"
- If a self-service cancel button exists, click it and follow the on-screen prompts
- All You Can Books typically ask for a cancellation reason and whether you wish to provide feedback
- Answer these questions accurately, as negative feedback helps the company understand service gaps
- Confirm your cancellation when prompted
- Screenshot or note the confirmation message and any cancellation reference number provided
Self-service cancellation is the fastest method. You receive immediate confirmation and cancellation takes effect either immediately or at your next billing date, depending on the company's policy.
Step 3: contact customer support if self-service fails
- Visit the All You Can Books website and locate their "Contact us," "Help" or "Support" section
- Identify available contact methods, such as email support, live chat or a contact form
- Compose a clear message stating your intent to cancel your subscription, including:
- Your full name and email address associated with the account
- Your account or order number (visible on your invoice or account dashboard)
- Your current subscription plan and monthly charge
- The reason you are cancelling (optional but helpful)
- Your preferred cancellation date (immediately or at the end of your current billing cycle)
- Send your cancellation request and retain a copy for your records
- Expect a response within 2 to 5 business days
Email contact is preferable because it creates a written record of your cancellation request and the company's response. Avoid relying on verbal communication alone, as disputes later become difficult to resolve without documented evidence.
Step 4: verify cancellation and monitor your account
- Log into your account within 24 hours of cancellation
- Check your subscription status to confirm it now shows "cancelled," "inactive" or "ended"
- Review your access to previously downloaded books to understand what remains available
- Check your email for a cancellation confirmation message from All You Can Books
- Monitor your bank or credit card statements for the next two billing cycles to confirm no further charges appear
Verification is essential. Occasionally, technical failures prevent cancellation from processing correctly, and you continue to be charged. Early detection allows you to escalate the matter quickly and claim your money back.
Your legal position and consumer rights
Your ability to cancel is protected by UK consumer law, specifically the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013. These statutes establish your right to cancel distance contracts (those formed online or by post) within 14 calendar days of purchase, provided certain conditions are met.
The 14-day cancellation right under consumer law
You have the right to cancel a distance contract for goods or services within 14 calendar days without providing a reason and without incurring a penalty, except in limited circumstances. For subscription services, the 14-day period begins on the day the contract is concluded (not when you first download a book). This means if you joined All You Can Books fewer than 14 days ago, you can cancel immediately and request a full refund, regardless of how many books you downloaded.
The Consumer Rights Act 2015 and Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 apply to all UK consumer purchases from distance suppliers. All You Can Books must comply with these regulations or you have grounds to escalate a complaint to Trading Standards in your local authority area.
Your legal position
If you cancel within 14 days of signing up: you are entitled to a full refund of all payments made, with no deductions. If you cancel after 14 days: you remain entitled to cancel at any time by giving reasonable notice (typically 30 days from the end of your current billing period, though you must verify All You Can Books' specific notice period in their terms). If All You Can Books refuses to cancel or continues charging after you request cancellation: you can lodge a complaint with Trading Standards or pursue the matter via your bank's chargeback process. Yafee advise documenting every communication step, as evidence of your cancellation request strengthens your position in any dispute.
Unfair terms and hidden charges
The Consumer Rights Act 2015 prohibits unfair contract terms. If All You Can Books applies hidden charges, misleading renewal dates, or conditions that contradict their stated cancellation policy, those terms are potentially unfair and unenforceable. If you discover that charges continued after you cancelled, or if the company imposed unexpected fees, gather evidence and escalate the matter. Yafee recommend contacting your bank or credit card company first, as they can often reverse unauthorised charges immediately whilst you gather further evidence.
Refund eligibility and refund timescales
Refund entitlement depends on when you cancel, what you have used, and the company's refund policy.
Full refund circumstances
You are entitled to a full refund if you cancel within 14 days of purchase, regardless of service use. This statutory right applies to all distance purchases from UK suppliers and overrides the company's own refund policy if it is more restrictive. Yafee recommends submitting a refund request explicitly referencing the Consumer Rights Act 2015 if All You Can Books initially refuses a refund for a cancellation within 14 days.
Partial or no refund circumstances
If you cancel after 14 days, your refund eligibility depends on All You Can Books' terms. Many subscription services offer no refund for the current billing period once the 14-day window closes, meaning you lose any unused portion of your monthly fee. Some companies offer a refund if you cancel before your next billing date, crediting you a proportional amount for unused days. Verify All You Can Books' specific refund policy by checking their terms of service or asking their support team directly.
Refund processing timescales
By law, refunds must be processed within 14 calendar days of the company receiving your cancellation request. In practice, All You Can Books may take 5 to 10 business days to process your request and then a further 3 to 5 business days for your bank to credit the refund to your account. Total elapsed time is typically 10 to 15 business days. If no refund appears after 21 days, contact the company to request a status update and ask for tracking information.
Common cancellation mistakes and how to avoid them
Cancellation is straightforward, but certain errors create delays or allow charges to continue unnecessarily. The reassuring fact is that every mistake described here is avoidable with basic precaution.
Mistake 1: assuming downloaded books remain accessible after cancellation
Many readers believe that once they download a book, they own it permanently. This is not how All You Can Books works. Upon cancellation, your access to all downloaded content ends immediately, even if you intended to finish reading. Before you cancel, finish reading any books you downloaded or take note of titles you intend to purchase separately after your subscription ends.
Mistake 2: cancelling through email but failing to follow up
If you email a cancellation request, the company may take weeks to respond, particularly if they process support tickets slowly. To avoid this, send your cancellation request and then monitor your account daily for confirmation. If you receive no response within 5 business days, send a follow-up email or use an alternative contact method such as live chat or a contact form. This persistence often accelerates the process and creates additional documentation of your attempt to cancel.
Mistake 3: accepting the company's offer to pause rather than cancel
When you request cancellation, customer support teams sometimes offer to pause your subscription instead, presenting it as a favour. A pause is not cancellation. Your account remains open, your payment method remains on file, and you are obligated to resume payments when the pause ends. Only accept a pause if you genuinely plan to return to the service. If you do not intend to return, insist on permanent cancellation instead.
Mistake 4: failing to screenshot your cancellation confirmation
If a dispute arises later and the company claims they received no cancellation request, your screenshot of the confirmation message proves otherwise. Always screenshot or photograph your confirmation, noting the date, time and confirmation number. Store this image safely in a dedicated folder for future reference.
Mistake 5: not checking your bank statement after cancellation
Technical failures occasionally prevent cancellation from processing fully, and you continue to be charged. Check your bank or credit card statement 5 to 10 days after cancellation to verify no further charges appeared. If a charge does appear, contact the company immediately and escalate via your bank's dispute process if necessary.
What happens after your All You Can Books subscription ends
Cancellation marks the end of your contractual relationship with All You Can Books, but several practical consequences follow that you should understand.
Immediate loss of access and downloaded content
Upon cancellation, your ability to read downloaded books ends. You cannot access your library, download new titles, or sync reading progress across devices. Any bookmarks, notes or highlights you created within the app are typically lost. If specific titles are important to you after cancellation, purchase them separately before your cancellation takes effect.
Your account status and future reactivation
All You Can Books retains your account record after cancellation, but you cannot access your profile, library or settings. If you decide to resubscribe later, you may be able to recover your previous account, though this depends on how long you have been cancelled and whether the company purges inactive accounts. Contact customer support to ask about reactivation eligibility if you plan to return in the future.
Promotional offers for returning customers
Companies often incentivise returning subscribers with discounted reactivation offers, such as three months at a reduced rate. Check your email after cancellation for such offers, particularly within 30 days. However, treat these offers as optional. Do not reactivate unless you are confident you will use the service regularly enough to justify the cost.

Getting professional help with subscription cancellations
If All You Can Books refuses to cancel, continues charging after you request cancellation, or disputes your refund entitlement, you have several escalation routes available.
Escalation to trading standards
Trading Standards is the UK consumer protection authority responsible for enforcing the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 against unfair business practices. If All You Can Books breaches your statutory cancellation or refund rights, you can lodge a formal complaint with your local Trading Standards office. Provide them with copies of your cancellation request, the company's response, and evidence of any charges that continued after you cancelled. Trading Standards will investigate and can pursue enforcement action against the company.
Chargeback via your bank
If you paid by credit or debit card, your bank can dispute unauthorised charges through its chargeback process. Contact your bank and explain that you cancelled your subscription but the company continued to charge you. Provide your cancellation confirmation as evidence. The bank will investigate and typically reverse the charge within 10 to 20 business days. Chargebacks are a powerful tool and often the fastest route to recovering money if the company refuses to refund.
Small claims court
If the amount owed is small (under £10,000), you can pursue the company through the Small Claims Court to recover your money. This is a formal legal process, but it does not require a solicitor and costs are low. Yafee recommend attempting cancellation, refund and bank escalation first, as these routes are faster and free. However, if the company refuses to cooperate and owes you a substantial amount, Small Claims Court is a viable final step.
Summary and next steps
Cancelling All You Can Books is straightforward if you follow the correct procedure. Your first step is to log into your account and attempt self-service cancellation through your subscription settings. If that option is unavailable, email customer support with a clear cancellation request, retaining a copy of your message and any confirmation you receive. Verify cancellation within 24 hours, monitor your bank statements for continued charges, and escalate via Trading Standards or your bank if the company refuses to stop charging you.
UK consumer law, specifically the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013, protects your right to cancel. If you cancelled within 14 days of signing up, you are legally entitled to a full refund with no questions asked. If you cancelled after 14 days, your refund entitlement depends on the company's terms, but you retain the absolute right to cancel at any time.
Yafee has helped thousands of consumers successfully cancel unwanted subscriptions and recover refunds they were owed. Whether you are cancelling All You Can Books because your reading habits have changed, because you found a better service, or because the monthly cost no longer justifies the value you receive, the process is the same: take action promptly, document every step, and do not hesitate to escalate if the company refuses to cooperate. Yafee recommend visiting yafee.com for further guidance on cancelling other subscription services, as the principles outlined here apply across most digital platforms. You regain full control of your money and your reading choices the moment you successfully cancel.
