How to cancel Deep Sleep and reclaim your subscription without losing access
What Deep Sleep is and why you might want to cancel
Deep Sleep is a subscription-based wellness app that delivers guided meditations, calming soundscapes, and breathing exercises designed to improve sleep quality. You pay a recurring monthly or annual fee to access premium audio content, and that subscription typically renews automatically unless you actively cancel it. Understanding the service, your billing method, and your cancellation rights under Malaysian consumer law will help you exit cleanly without unexpected charges.
Deep Sleep as a sleep and wellness app
Deep Sleep positions itself as a digital sleep coach. The app focuses on audio-first content: curated sleep meditations, nature soundscapes, breathing techniques, and relaxation sessions. Users typically subscribe for ongoing, unlimited access to these premium features. The corporate entity behind the service is listed as Sparrow Enterprises, Inc., based in Mills River, North Carolina, United States, though the service operates internationally and supports Malaysian users.
The app is available across major platforms, including iOS (via Apple App Store) and Android (via Google Play Store), as well as potentially through the Deep Sleep website. This multi-platform presence creates complexity when you cancel, because your billing source-whether direct, Apple, or Google-determines which cancellation route you must follow.
What you are actually paying for
Your subscription fee grants you access to the app's premium audio library and features. You are not purchasing a physical product or a one-time service; instead, you are paying for continuous digital access that renews automatically each billing cycle unless cancelled.
Pricing for Deep Sleep varies by plan and platform. Based on available market data, monthly subscriptions range from approximately RM28.27 to RM47.15 (USD $5.99 to $9.99), while annual plans may cost around RM283.15 (USD $59.99). Malaysian users may see pricing adjusted for local currency conversion and any applicable digital service taxes. The exact amount charged depends on your chosen plan, the platform used, and your card issuer's foreign exchange rate at the time of billing.
Why you might choose to cancel
Common reasons for cancellation include: the app does not deliver the promised sleep improvement, you have found a competing service that works better for you, unexpected repeated charges, poor customer support response, or simple budget reassessment. Whatever your reason, you have the right under Malaysia's Consumer Protection Act 1999 to terminate a recurring subscription, provided you follow the correct procedural steps and meet any statutory notice periods.
Your consumer rights under malaysian law
Malaysia's Consumer Protection Act 1999 establishes clear protections for repeat transactions and automatic renewal contracts. These laws apply to Deep Sleep, regardless of whether the company is based overseas.
What the consumer protection act 1999 says about cancellation
Under the Consumer Protection Act 1999, a supplier who enters into a contract with you for the supply of goods or services must not include terms that are unfair, misleading, or fail to disclose material information. The Act also requires that automatic renewal contracts (like subscription apps) must provide a clear, straightforward cancellation mechanism. Furthermore, the Act grants you the right to cancel a subscription within a reasonable timeframe without incurring penalties or hidden charges.
Consequently, Deep Sleep must disclose its cancellation method before you subscribe, and the actual cancellation process must be no more difficult than the sign-up process. If the company makes cancellation deliberately hard to find or requires you to telephone during business hours when you first signed up online, that may constitute an unfair contract term under the Act.
Your legal position regarding refunds and re-billing
Your legal position: You have the right to cancel your Deep Sleep subscription at any time. Upon cancellation, you should not be charged for any future billing cycles. If you have been incorrectly charged after cancelling, or if the company refuses to process your cancellation, you can lodge a complaint with the Federation of Malaysian Consumers Associations (FMCA) or escalate to the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (KPDNHEP). The burden of proof that you cancelled lies with Deep Sleep; retain all cancellation confirmations as evidence. If a refund is warranted (for example, if you were charged after a valid cancellation), you may demand a full refund of the erroneous charge and any additional costs incurred.
How billing works and where to find your subscription
Deep Sleep collects payment through three primary channels: the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or direct billing through the Deep Sleep website. Identifying your billing source is essential, because each channel has its own cancellation procedure.
Locating your subscription details
Start by checking where you made your original purchase. Open your email and search for receipts or confirmation messages containing the words "Deep Sleep," "subscription," or "renewal." Bank or credit card statements will also show the merchant name-typically "Sparrow Enterprises" or "Deep Sleep"-and the date of the most recent charge.
If you subscribed via Apple App Store, check the App Store app on your iPhone or iPad by opening Settings, tapping your name, selecting Subscriptions, and looking for Deep Sleep. If you used Google Play, open Google Play on your Android device, tap your profile icon, select Payments and Subscriptions, then Subscriptions, and find Deep Sleep. If you are unsure, check all three locations: your email receipts, your bank statement, and the app stores. Many users discover they have subscriptions across multiple platforms.
Malaysian support contact details
Deep Sleep operates customer support for Malaysian users during Malaysian Standard Time (GMT+8), Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM. You can reach the support team via email at [email protected] or by telephone at +6012 963 6921. Note that live chat is not currently available, so email and phone remain your primary channels. If you contact the company during business hours and receive no response within 48 hours, follow up in writing and keep records of all correspondence.
How to cancel Deep Sleep step by step
Your cancellation method depends entirely on where you subscribed. Follow the correct procedure for your billing source to avoid failed cancellations and surprise charges.
Step 1: check and screenshot your current subscription details
Before you initiate cancellation, take protective action. Screenshot your account page showing the active subscription, the plan name, and the next billing date. Save a copy of your most recent receipt or invoice showing the amount charged (for example, RM28.27 or RM47.15). These records prove you had an active subscription and establish the timing of your cancellation request. Store these files securely-you may need them if a dispute arises later.
- Open the app or visit the Deep Sleep website and sign in
- Navigate to your account, profile, or subscription settings
- Take a full-page screenshot of your active plan
- Copy the next renewal date and amount due
- Save any receipt email from the billing source
- Export or note any content you wish to preserve
Step 2: cancel via apple app store (if you subscribed on iOS)
If you subscribed to Deep Sleep through an Apple device, you must cancel through Apple's subscription management system. The company does not process cancellations made via email or phone for App Store subscriptions; only Apple can authorize the cancellation and stop the charge.
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac
- Tap your name at the top of the screen (Apple ID profile)
- Select Subscriptions
- Find and tap Deep Sleep in the list
- Tap Cancel Subscription (or Edit Subscription, then Cancel)
- Choose your reason for cancellation from the dropdown menu
- Confirm cancellation by tapping the final confirmation button
- You will see a confirmation message; screenshot this for your records
After you complete these steps, your subscription will end on the next billing date shown on screen. You will retain access to the app until that date, then be downgraded to any free tier (if available) or lose access entirely. Apple will send a confirmation email to your Apple ID email address within a few minutes.
Step 3: cancel via google play store (if you subscribed on android)
If you subscribed to Deep Sleep through an Android device using Google Play, you must cancel through Google Play's subscription management portal. Like Apple, Google handles billing for app store subscriptions and does not pass cancellation requests to the company.
- Open the Google Play app on your Android device
- Tap your profile icon in the top right corner
- Select Payments and subscriptions
- Tap Subscriptions
- Find and tap Deep Sleep
- Tap Cancel subscription
- Follow the prompts and confirm your reason for cancellation
- Tap Cancel subscription again to finalize
Google will display a confirmation screen immediately. Your subscription will terminate on the next scheduled billing date. Google will also send a confirmation email to your Google Account email address. Keep this email for your records.
Step 4: cancel via the Deep Sleep website or app (if you subscribed directly)
If you created your Deep Sleep account directly on the company's website and paid with a credit card, debit card, or bank transfer, you must cancel through the Deep Sleep platform itself. The company's terms do not specify a clear web-based cancellation page, but the standard procedure is as follows.
- Visit the Deep Sleep official website at deep.online
- Sign in with your email address and password
- Navigate to Account Settings or My Subscription (usually found in a profile menu or top-right corner)
- Look for a Subscription, Billing, or Manage Membership section
- Select the active subscription plan
- Locate the Cancel Subscription, Downgrade, or Delete Account button
- Click the button and confirm your cancellation intent
- Note the cancellation date displayed on screen and any remaining access period
If you cannot find a cancellation button on the website, contact customer support immediately via email at [email protected]. Write a clear subject line: "Cancellation Request for Deep Sleep Subscription." In the body, include your account email, the subscription plan you are cancelling, and your preferred cancellation date. Request written confirmation of the cancellation. Keep a copy of this email in your records.
Step 5: confirm your cancellation and await confirmation
After you submit your cancellation request, expect a confirmation email or in-app notification within 24 to 48 hours. This confirmation will state the exact date your subscription ends and when you will lose app access. If you do not receive confirmation within 2 business days, send a follow-up email or call the Malaysian support line at +6012 963 6921 during business hours (GMT+8, Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM).
Do not assume the cancellation is complete just because you clicked a button. Verify it in writing. This extra step protects you against failed cancellations and unexpected charges.

Always verify the amount shown in your App Store or payment confirmation against this table. If you are being charged significantly more than these figures suggest, contact support to dispute the charge.
What happens after you cancel your Deep Sleep subscription
Cancellation does not end immediately; instead, it takes effect on your next scheduled billing date. Understanding this timeline prevents panic and confusion.
Your access during the cancellation notice period
When you cancel, you retain full access to Deep Sleep and all premium features until your current billing period ends. For example, if you pay on the 1st of each month and cancel on the 15th, you keep full access until the end of that month. You will not be charged on the 1st of the following month. After your access period expires, you will be logged out of the app, or your account will be downgraded to a free tier (if available).
Checking for unexpected charges after cancellation
After the cancellation takes effect, monitor your bank or credit card statement for at least one full billing cycle to confirm no further charges appear. If you spot a charge after your cancellation date, take immediate action. Email [email protected] with the subject "Erroneous charge after cancellation" and include your cancellation confirmation, the statement showing the unwanted charge, and a clear demand for a refund. Keep records of all communication.
Claiming a refund if you were charged after cancellation
If Deep Sleep charged you after you successfully cancelled, you are entitled to a full refund under the Consumer Protection Act 1999. Write to the company's registered address (Sparrow Enterprises, Inc., Mills River, North Carolina, United States) and to the Malaysian support email simultaneously. State the date you cancelled, the date of the erroneous charge, and the amount. Provide your cancellation confirmation and bank statement as evidence. Request a refund within 14 days. If the company does not respond or refuses, lodge a formal complaint with the Federation of Malaysian Consumers Associations or KPDNHEP.
Common cancellation mistakes and how to avoid them
Cancellation frustration is often avoidable with careful attention to these common errors. You are not alone if you have made one of these mistakes, and recovery is possible.
Mistake 1: emailing Deep Sleep when you subscribed via apple or google
The most frequent cancellation failure happens when users email the company requesting a cancellation after signing up through an app store. Deep Sleep does not control Apple or Google subscriptions; only those platforms can stop the billing. Email complaints to the company will have no effect on your charge. Always cancel through the platform where you subscribed.
Mistake 2: not saving proof of cancellation
If a dispute arises later, you need evidence that you cancelled on a specific date. Screenshot confirmation screens, save emails, and note dates. Without proof, the company can claim you never requested cancellation, and Malaysian consumer authorities will struggle to rule in your favor without documentation.
Mistake 3: assuming cancellation is complete without a confirmation email
Some cancellations fail silently. A button click does not guarantee success. Wait for a confirmation email before concluding the cancellation is done. If no email arrives within 48 hours, contact support directly.
Mistake 4: cancelling during a free trial but before the trial ends
If you were on a free trial that converts to a paid subscription, cancelling during the trial may not prevent the charge if the conversion date arrives before your cancellation processes. Cancel as early as possible if you do not intend to pay, and confirm the cancellation takes effect before the trial ends.
