How to cancel Dancefitme and stop recurring charges in malaysia
What Dancefitme is and why you might want to cancel
Dancefitme is a subscription-based fitness app that delivers dance workout routines through iOS and Android platforms, with over 10 million downloads and a 4.5-star rating. The service charges recurring monthly or annual fees for Premium access, typically ranging from RM47 to RM179 depending on your chosen plan. Many users in Malaysia sign up for the free tier but later find themselves charged without clarity on how to stop the recurring debit.
Understanding what you are paying for
When you subscribe to Dancefitme Premium, you gain access to guided dance routines, structured 28-day challenges, multiple dance styles (hip-hop, aerobics, jazz, Latin, salsa, K-pop, and walking dance), and advanced app features. The pricing structure offers flexibility, but the lack of transparent cancellation instructions on Dancefitme's own website creates confusion and frustration for Malaysian subscribers.
Yafee has identified that most cancellation disputes arise because users do not understand where their payment actually originates. If you subscribed via iPhone, Apple manages your subscription. If you used Android, Google Play controls it. If you paid through the Dancefitme web platform, the support centre becomes your primary contact point. This distinction is critical because your cancellation method depends entirely on your original payment method.
Why cancellation matters and when to act
Auto-renewal subscriptions are designed to continue charging you indefinitely unless you actively cancel. Under Malaysia's Consumer Protection Act 1999, you have the right to clear, upfront disclosure of all charges before you consent to any subscription. Dancefitme's failure to provide explicit cancellation steps on its public website places the burden on you to navigate through third-party payment platforms. Consequently, you must act promptly once you decide to cancel to avoid unwanted charges on your next billing cycle.
Yafee recommends checking your last receipt and noting your renewal date before proceeding. This protects your position if a dispute arises later.
Your legal position under malaysian consumer law
Your right to cancel is protected by Malaysia's Consumer Protection Act 1999, which requires traders to provide accurate, transparent information about subscription terms, renewal dates, and cancellation procedures. Dancefitme's lack of published cancellation instructions on its own platform constitutes a breach of these transparency obligations.
Consumer protection act 1999 and your cancellation rights
The Consumer Protection Act 1999 mandates that all subscription services must disclose renewal terms, billing amounts, and cancellation methods before you complete your purchase. If Dancefitme has failed to provide these details clearly, you may have grounds to request a refund even after the initial period. The legislation also protects you from misleading representations about the ease or terms of cancellation.
Furthermore, the Act gives you the right to cancel without penalty during a 14-day cooling-off period from the date you enter into the contract, provided the subscription was sold at a distance (which app-based sales are). If you subscribed less than 14 days ago, you can demand immediate cancellation and a full refund regardless of usage.
Your legal position
You have the right to:
- Cancel your Dancefitme subscription at any time after the initial period
- Receive a full refund within 14 days of purchase if you subscribed via distance contract
- Demand clear, written confirmation of cancellation from Dancefitme or the payment platform
- Lodge a complaint with the Federation of Malaysian Consumer Associations (FMCA) or the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living if Dancefitme refuses to honour your cancellation request
In accordance with consumer protection principles, Yafee advises you to gather all evidence of your subscription, payment receipt, and any communication attempts before escalating a dispute.
Your cancellation method depends on where your payment originated; follow the route that matches your subscription channel.
Cancel through apple app store (iPhone users)
If you subscribed to Dancefitme via iPhone, Apple manages your subscription and billing. You must cancel through Apple's own settings, not through the Dancefitme app.
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone
- Tap your Apple ID at the top (your name and profile photo)
- Select Subscription
- Find and tap Dancefitme in the active subscriptions list
- Tap Cancel Subscription
- Confirm your cancellation when prompted
- Apple will display your final billing date
- Your Premium access ends on that date
- Take a screenshot of the confirmation screen as proof
Apple will send you an email confirmation within minutes. Your RM47, RM94, or RM179 charge will stop after your current billing period ends. No refund is issued for the current period unless you cancelled within 14 days of your original purchase date.
Cancel through google play store (Android users)
If you subscribed via Android, Google Play handles your subscription management. You cannot cancel through the Dancefitme app alone; you must use Google Play's own interface.
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device
- Tap your profile icon in the top right corner
- Select Payments and subscriptions
- Tap Subscriptions
- Locate Dancefitme in your active subscriptions
- Tap Cancel subscription
- Follow the prompts to confirm cancellation
- Google will display your final billing date
- You will receive an email confirmation
- Screenshot the cancellation confirmation for your records
Google Play typically processes cancellations immediately. Your recurring charge will not appear in your next billing cycle. However, refunds for the current period are only available if you cancel within 14 days of your first charge.
Cancel a web-based Dancefitme subscription
If you subscribed directly through the Dancefitme website using a credit card or debit card, you must contact Dancefitme support directly, as they control the billing.
- Visit the Dancefitme Support Centre at supportcenter.dancefit.me
- Navigate to the Billing or Subscription section
- Select Cancel my subscription or a similar option
- Provide your registered email address and account ID (found in your receipt or account settings)
- Submit your cancellation request
- Dancefitme support will respond within 3-5 business days
- Request written confirmation of your cancellation in the email thread
- Check your email for a cancellation confirmation notice
- If you do not receive a response within 5 days, follow up with a second email marked "URGENT: CANCELLATION CONFIRMATION REQUIRED"
For web subscriptions, Dancefitme may request proof of purchase or verification of your identity. Have your original receipt and the last four digits of your payment card ready to speed up the process. Yafee recommends saving all email correspondence as evidence of your cancellation attempt.
What happens after you cancel your Dancefitme subscription
Once your cancellation is confirmed, your account transitions to free-tier access and recurring charges stop. However, several practical matters require attention.
Access and data retention after cancellation
After you cancel, you retain access to the free version of Dancefitme until the end of your current billing period. Once that period ends, your Premium features (guided challenges, advanced routines, and exclusive content) become locked. Dancefitme does not clearly publish how long your account data (workout history, progress, saved challenges) is retained after cancellation. In the absence of explicit retention terms, assume your account data may be deleted within 30 to 90 days.
If you wish to preserve your workout records, download or screenshot any data you value before your final billing date passes. Yafee advises taking these precautions to avoid permanent loss of your fitness progress.
Confirming that charges have truly stopped
The most reliable way to confirm your cancellation worked is to monitor your bank statement or payment app for the next 30 days. You should see no further Dancefitme charges after your renewal date. If a charge appears, escalate immediately using the steps outlined below.
Set a phone reminder for 3 days after your final billing date. Check your account on the relevant platform (Apple Settings, Google Play, or your bank app) to verify that Dancefitme no longer appears in your active subscriptions. This simple verification prevents unpleasant surprises weeks later.
Requesting a refund for Dancefitme charges
Your refund eligibility depends on when you cancelled and under which jurisdiction your purchase took place.
Refunds within the 14-day cooling-off period
Under the Consumer Protection Act 1999, you have the right to cancel any distance contract (including app subscriptions) within 14 days of purchase and demand a full refund, provided you have not consumed the entire service. If you subscribed to Dancefitme fewer than 14 days ago, you can request a full refund of RM47, RM94, or RM179 as applicable.
To claim your 14-day refund:
- Confirm the purchase date from your receipt or payment confirmation email
- Calculate whether today falls within 14 days of that date
- Submit a refund request to Dancefitme Support Centre or your payment provider (Apple, Google, or your bank)
- Include your receipt, account email, and a clear statement: "I am exercising my right to cancel and request a full refund under Malaysia's Consumer Protection Act 1999, Section [relevant section]"
- Submit the request in writing (email is acceptable)
- Allow 7-14 business days for processing
Refunds after 14 days
Once the 14-day cooling-off period expires, refunds are at the discretion of Dancefitme and your payment provider. Nevertheless, you may still pursue a refund if you can demonstrate:
- Dancefitme failed to provide transparent cancellation instructions before you paid
- You were charged without clear consent to auto-renewal terms
- A technical error caused duplicate charges
- The service was materially different from the advertised description
In these circumstances, lodge a formal complaint with your payment provider (Apple, Google, or your bank) and request a chargeback. Yafee recommends submitting this request within 90 days of the charge.
Dancefitme pricing and subscription tiers
Understanding the exact charges you face helps you decide whether cancellation is the right step. The table below outlines Dancefitme's published pricing for Malaysian users.
| Subscription tier |
Billing frequency |
Price (MYR) |
Cost per month |
Renewal terms |
| 1 Month Premium |
Monthly |

All paid tiers renew automatically unless you cancel before the renewal date. The annual plan offers the lowest per-month cost but locks you into a RM179 commitment if you do not cancel in time. Yafee recommends setting a calendar reminder 7 days before your renewal date so you have time to cancel if needed.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling Dancefitme
The cancellation process is straightforward when you follow the correct platform route, but small oversights create frustration. Rest assured, most problems are reversible if you act quickly.
Mistake 1: cancelling only through the Dancefitme app
Many users open the Dancefitme app, look for a "Cancel Subscription" button in the settings, and assume they have cancelled. In reality, Apple and Google Play do not allow apps to manage cancellations through their own interfaces for security reasons. You must cancel through Apple Settings, Google Play Store, or Dancefitme's own support centre-never through the app alone. If you only deleted the app from your phone, your subscription remains active and will renew on schedule.
Mistake 2: not taking screenshots or saving confirmation emails
If Dancefitme continues to charge you after you believed you cancelled, you will need proof of your cancellation attempt. Email confirmations from Apple, Google, or Dancefitme support serve as evidence. Without this proof, disputing a charge becomes difficult. Always screenshot the final confirmation screen immediately after cancelling.
Mistake 3: confusing free trial cancellation with paid subscription cancellation
If you signed up for a free trial that automatically converts to a paid subscription, you must cancel before the trial ends. Cancelling during a free trial is identical to cancelling a paid subscription-you follow the same Apple, Google Play, or support centre route. Do not assume the free trial cancels automatically.
Mistake 4: cancelling too close to the renewal date
If you cancel on the same day your renewal charge processes, the charge may still go through because payment processing and subscription management operate on separate timelines. Cancel at least 3 days before your renewal date to ensure the cancellation is processed before any charge attempts. Check your renewal date in your subscription settings or receipt before you submit your cancellation request.
If Dancefitme refuses to cancel or continues charging you
If you have followed the cancellation steps above and Dancefitme or the payment platform refuses to honour your request, or if charges continue after you cancelled, escalate your complaint formally.
Step 1: demand written cancellation confirmation
Send a formal email to Dancefitme Support Centre (supportcenter.dancefit.me) with the subject line "FORMAL CANCELLATION REQUEST AND WRITTEN CONFIRMATION REQUIRED". Include your account email, the date you attempted to cancel, your receipt number, and a clear statement that you are cancelling effective immediately. Request written confirmation within 5 business days. Keep a copy of this email.
Step 2: file a complaint with your payment provider
If Dancefitme does not respond or refuses to cancel, contact your payment provider directly:
- Apple: Report the issue through Settings > [Your Name] > iTunes and App Store > [Account Settings] > Purchase History, then select the charge and report a problem
- Google Play: Open Google Play Store > Account > Order history, select the charge, and tap "Report a problem"
- Your bank: Call your bank and request a chargeback or transaction dispute for unauthorized recurring charges
Provide your payment provider with all evidence: screenshots, receipts, cancellation confirmation emails, and a written explanation of the dispute.
Step 3: lodge a complaint with malaysian consumer authorities
If you do not receive resolution within 14 days, escalate to the Federation of Malaysian Consumer Associations (FMCA) or the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living. You can file a formal complaint online or in person. Include all evidence of your cancellation attempts and the company's refusal to comply. Yafee recommends including reference to the Consumer Protection Act 1999 in your complaint to strengthen your case.

Summary and your next step
Cancelling Dancefitme in Malaysia is straightforward once you understand that your cancellation method depends on your original payment platform. iPhone users cancel through Apple Settings, Android users through Google Play, and web subscribers through Dancefitme's support centre. Your right to cancel is protected by Malaysia's Consumer Protection Act 1999, and the 14-day cooling-off period gives you an automatic refund window if you act quickly.
The most common friction point is confusion about where to submit your cancellation request. Yafee has helped thousands of consumers cancel fitness app subscriptions by clarifying this single detail: determine your payment source first, then follow that platform's cancellation steps. Do not attempt to cancel through the app itself, take screenshots as proof, and set a reminder to verify the charges stop.
If Dancefitme refuses to honour your cancellation or continues charging you after you have cancelled, escalate to your payment provider or file a formal complaint with the Federation of Malaysian Consumer Associations. You have legal standing under consumer protection law, and persistence typically results in a refund or charge reversal within 14 to 30 days.
