Frequently asked questions
Cancel Videotron: The Right Way to Protect Your Money
How to cancel Videotron from india and recover your money
What is Videotron and why indian customers cancel
Videotron is a Canadian telecommunications provider offering internet, television, and phone services across Canada. If you've activated a Videotron account from India-perhaps through a cross-border payment method, international card, or Canadian address-you may now face recurring charges you wish to stop. This guide explains your exact cancellation process, your legal protections as an Indian consumer, and how to secure any refunds owed to you. Yafee specialises in helping Indian customers exit international subscriptions safely and legally.
Why indians sign up for Videotron
Most Indian subscribers encounter Videotron when they've moved temporarily to Canada, hold a valid Canadian payment method, or purchased through a North American app store using a Canadian address. Once circumstances change-you relocate, no longer need the service, or discover unexpected charges-cancellation becomes essential to stop monthly debits from your account.
Videotron's service area and support availability
Videotron operates exclusively within Canada and maintains no customer service offices, billing departments, or local support infrastructure in India. All cancellations must be processed through Videotron's Canadian-based customer relations team. No Indian subsidiary, reseller, or local representative exists to handle your account termination.
Your consumer rights under indian law
Indian consumer protection law protects you even when cancelling a foreign company's services, provided the company collects payment from your Indian location.
The consumer protection act, 2019 and your cancellation rights
The Consumer Protection Act, 2019 grants you three core protections. First, you hold the right to receive services as described and billed. Second, if Videotron continues charging after you request cancellation, you can demand a refund for all unauthorised amounts. Third, if the company fails to confirm your cancellation or disputes your termination request, you may escalate your complaint to the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission in your jurisdiction.
Your legal position: You are entitled to cancel Videotron's subscription at any time by providing written notice. The company must cease billing within 7 days of receiving your cancellation request. If charges continue after 7 days, you may file a consumer complaint and recover all excess amounts plus compensation for willful non-compliance.
App store refund protection for Videotron purchases
If you subscribed to Videotron through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, both platforms permit refund requests within 15 days of purchase for most transactions, regardless of Videotron's own refund policy. Log into your app store account, navigate to your purchase history, and request a refund directly through the store's system. Yafee recommends documenting this request with screenshots of your confirmation email.
The district consumer disputes redressal commission and escalation
If Videotron refuses your cancellation request or continues billing after termination, you may file a formal complaint with the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission in your state. This quasi-judicial body investigates billing disputes and enforces refunds. You need not hire a lawyer; the commission process is free and designed for individual consumers. Yafee has supported customers through this escalation process to recover thousands of rupees in unlawful charges.
Cancellation methods and contact information
Videotron does not permit self-service cancellation through its website or mobile app. You must contact their customer service team by telephone or written correspondence to initiate termination.
Phone cancellation: step-by-step process
Calling Videotron remains the fastest method to secure a cancellation confirmation number and confirmed end date. Follow these steps precisely.
- Arrange an international calling method before you dial. Call Videotron's customer service at +1-877-512-0911 (this is a Canadian toll-free number). Use a VoIP service, international roaming plan, or callback service to avoid unexpected international charges on your Indian phone bill.
- Document the date, time, and call duration immediately after you hang up.
- Locate your Videotron account number and the email address registered with your subscription before calling.
- When connected, politely request a customer service representative specialising in account terminations.
- State clearly: "I want to cancel my Videotron account effective today" or specify your preferred final billing date.
- Do not accept retention offers, discounts, or plan downgrades unless you genuinely wish to continue.
- Remain firm and professional; do not end the call until you receive a confirmation number.
- During the call, document the following information in writing or voice memo:
- Your unique cancellation reference number (critical for disputing future charges).
- Your final billing date and service termination date.
- The representative's name and employee ID if provided.
- Videotron's confirmation that no further charges will be applied after the termination date.
- Request written confirmation by email immediately after the call ends.
- Email Videotron's customer relations department (address provided in the final section) with subject line: "Cancellation Confirmation Request for Account [Your Account Number]".
- Reference your phone cancellation date, time, and the confirmation number provided during the call.
- Ask for written acknowledgment of your termination date within 48 hours.
Written cancellation via registered mail
If you prefer a documented audit trail, send your cancellation letter by registered post to Videotron's Customer Relations Department. This method takes longer-typically 10 to 15 business days-but creates legally binding proof of your cancellation date. Yafee recommends written cancellation if you suspect Videotron may dispute your termination or if you've experienced billing issues previously.
- Draft a formal cancellation letter including your full name, account number, registered email address, and the phrase: "I hereby request immediate termination of my Videotron subscription effective [today's date or preferred date]."
- Keep your letter concise and professional; avoid emotional language or accusations.
- Retain a copy for your records before posting.
- Send your letter via India Post Registered AD (Acknowledgment Due) or a courier service such as FedEx or DHL to ensure proof of delivery.
- Address the letter to: Videotron Customer Relations Department, 1 Avenue du Parc, Montreal, Quebec H2X 1P8, Canada.
- Request a tracking number and retain the courier receipt.
- Monitor your account for billing activity for 21 days after posting your letter.
- If charges appear after 21 days, forward your courier receipt and cancellation letter to the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission as evidence of timely termination notice.
Understanding videotron's billing cycle and refunds
Videotron applies Canadian billing practices, which may not align with Indian consumer expectations. Understanding these practices protects you from overpaying during cancellation.
Typical Videotron charges and plan costs
| Service type | Typical monthly cost (CAD) | Typical monthly cost (approx. INR) | Billing frequency |
|---|---|---|---|
| Internet (basic) | 49.99-59.99 | ₹2,300-₹2,800 | Monthly auto-renewal |
| Internet (high-speed) | 79.99-99.99 | ₹3,700-₹4,600 | Monthly auto-renewal |
| TV + Internet bundle | 89.99-149.99 | ₹4,200-₹7,000 | Monthly auto-renewal |
| Phone add-on | 19.99-29.99 | ₹900-₹1,400 | Monthly auto-renewal |
| Mobile app subscription (if applicable) | 2.99-9.99 per month | ₹140-₹465 | Monthly or annual |
| Installation or activation fees | 0-99.99 (one-time) | ₹0-₹4,600 (one-time) | Due on signup |
Refund eligibility and pro-rata calculations
Videotron typically does not offer refunds for partial subscription periods; however, if you cancel mid-billing cycle, you may be eligible for a pro-rata credit on your final invoice. A pro-rata refund means the company calculates the unused portion of your subscription and credits that amount to your payment method.
Example: You cancel on day 10 of a 30-day billing cycle after paying ₹2,500 for the month. Videotron may credit you approximately ₹1,667 for the 20 remaining days (2,500 ÷ 30 × 20 = 1,667). However, Videotron reserves discretion to deny pro-rata refunds if you've breached their terms of service.
Requesting refund processing
After you cancel, monitor your original payment method for refund activity. Refunds typically appear within 7 to 10 business days, but international transfers may take up to 21 days. If no refund appears after 21 days, contact Videotron's billing department by email and reference your cancellation confirmation number. Yafee advises keeping a calendar reminder on day 18 to check your account; proactive follow-up prevents refunds from slipping through administrative cracks.
Common mistakes to avoid during cancellation
You are not alone in facing cancellation friction; thousands of Indian customers have navigated Videotron's process. Avoid these pitfalls to protect yourself and ensure a clean termination.
Mistake 1: failing to obtain a written confirmation number
If you call Videotron and hang up without a confirmation number, the company may deny your cancellation request if charges continue. Videotron's representatives will often provide a verbal confirmation but fail to mention the reference number unless you ask explicitly. Always request this number by name: "Please provide my cancellation confirmation number before we end this call."
Mistake 2: cancelling through a third-party reseller instead of Videotron directly
If you purchased Videotron through a reseller, mobile app aggregator, or subscription platform, cancelling with that intermediary does not guarantee Videotron stops billing. Contact Videotron's Canadian customer service directly to confirm termination, then escalate the cancellation through the original reseller's support channel as well. Yafee recommends dual cancellation to eliminate billing surprises.
Mistake 3: assuming your cancellation is effective immediately
Videotron typically provides a 7 to 30-day notice period after your cancellation request before the account terminates. During this period, you continue to receive service and incur charges. Ask explicitly: "When will my account terminate-today or on a future date?" Document the termination date the representative provides; that is your legally binding end date under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019.
Mistake 4: not checking your account for post-cancellation charges
After your cancellation date passes, review your payment method for any charges dated after the termination date. Billing system errors sometimes cause unauthorised post-cancellation charges. Screenshot these charges immediately and file a dispute with your bank and the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission. Yafee has helped customers recover unauthorised post-cancellation charges through formal complaint procedures.
What happens after your cancellation is processed
Cancellation does not end instantly; several actions occur over the following weeks to fully sever your relationship with Videotron.
Your final invoice and service disconnection
Videotron will send a final invoice to your registered email address and postal address (if Canadian address is on file) within 5 to 10 business days of your termination date. This invoice reflects charges up to your final billing date, minus any pro-rata refunds. Your internet, television, or phone service will cease on the date specified during your cancellation call.
Refund processing and payment timeline
If your final invoice results in a refund (for example, you prepaid for service you did not use), Videotron will process this refund to your original payment method within 10 to 21 business days. International refunds from Canada to Indian bank accounts or cards may experience delays due to currency conversion and banking intermediaries; expect up to 30 days for full credit. If a refund does not appear after 30 days, contact your bank to verify whether the credit was delayed in transit.
Email and account access after termination
Your Videotron customer portal login will deactivate within 48 hours of your termination date. You will no longer receive billing updates, service notifications, or promotional emails. Retain copies of all Videotron communications, invoices, and cancellation confirmations for at least one year in case disputes arise.
Steps to take if Videotron refuses to cancel
Some customers encounter resistance when attempting to cancel-representatives may claim your account is ineligible, that you are under contract, or that cancellation will incur early termination fees. Your legal rights override these objections.
Documenting your cancellation request and videotron's refusal
If a Videotron representative denies your cancellation request, record the call (if legal in your jurisdiction), take detailed notes of the conversation, and send an immediate follow-up email to Videotron's customer relations department. Write: "On [date] at [time], I requested cancellation of my account. Your representative [name, if available] stated that cancellation is not permitted because [reason given]. I dispute this restriction and reaffirm my request to cancel effective immediately." Retain a copy of this email.
Filing a complaint with the district consumer disputes redressal commission
If Videotron does not confirm your cancellation within 7 days of your written request, you may file a formal complaint with the District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission in your state. This body has authority to order Videotron to cease billing and to award compensation for non-compliance with cancellation requests. You need not pay a filing fee; the commission handles consumer disputes free of charge. Yafee provides templates and guidance for customers preparing commission complaints, ensuring your evidence is properly structured and persuasive.
Escalation to your bank or credit card issuer
Simultaneously, contact your bank or credit card issuer and report Videotron's continued charges as unauthorised transactions. Request a chargeback or reversal of all post-cancellation charges. Your bank must investigate within 30 days under Indian banking regulations. Chargebacks succeed frequently when you provide evidence of your cancellation request and confirmation that Videotron ignored it.
Preventing future unwanted Videotron charges
Once your account terminates, take steps to ensure Videotron cannot automatically reactivate your subscription or bill your payment method again.
Revoking payment method authorisation
Contact your bank, credit card issuer, or payment app and revoke Videotron's authorisation to charge your card or account. Most banks permit you to block recurring charges through their mobile app or website under "Manage Payments" or "Recurring Transactions." Yafee recommends completing this step within 24 hours of your cancellation date to add a final layer of protection.
Monitoring your credit report and accounts
Monitor your bank and credit card statements monthly for 90 days following cancellation. If Videotron reappears on your billing history, contact your bank immediately to dispute the charge. Additionally, check your credit report via CIBIL or Experian (Indian credit bureaus) to ensure Videotron does not report a false default or unpaid balance after you've cancelled.
