Cancel Bloomberg: Step-by-Step Guide
How to cancel Bloomberg in malaysia and avoid unexpected charges
What Bloomberg is and why malaysians subscribe
Bloomberg is a global financial news and market data platform founded in 1981, headquartered in New York, and trusted by investors, fund managers, and business professionals worldwide. In Malaysia, most subscribers access Bloomberg's digital news service-unlimited articles on Bloomberg.com and the mobile app-often bundled with Bloomberg Businessweek print editions or curated tech newsletters.
The subscription model is straightforward on the surface: you pay a monthly or annual fee upfront for access to market coverage, company analysis, and breaking financial news. However, the service operates on automatic renewal, which means your account renews and charges your payment method automatically unless you cancel before your next billing date. This is where many Malaysian users run into trouble, especially those who signed up for introductory rates and forgot to mark their renewal date.
Understanding the subscription pricing structure
Bloomberg offers tiered subscription plans with pricing displayed in USD, though your bank or card issuer typically converts charges to Malaysian ringgit (RM). Introductory offers-such as RM9 for the first month-automatically convert to the full renewal price (often around RM189 per month) when the promotional period ends. This automatic transition happens without a separate consent request, and charges post to your account unless you cancel proactively.
| Plan type | Billing cycle | Typical cost (USD / RM) | Auto-renewal |
|---|---|---|---|
| Premium monthly | Month-to-month | $39.99 / RM189 | Yes, unless cancelled |
| Annual plan | 12 months | $180 / RM850 | Yes, unless cancelled |
| Introductory offer | 1 month at promo rate | $1.99 / RM9 (first month) | Yes, converts to full price |
| Tech Newsletter Bundle | Month-to-month | $9.99 / RM47 | Yes, unless cancelled |
How subscription renewal works in malaysia
Your next billing date appears in your Bloomberg account settings under "Subscriptions" or "Billing". When that date arrives, Bloomberg charges your stored payment method automatically-whether it is a credit card, debit card, or digital wallet linked to your Apple ID or Google Play account. If the charge succeeds, your subscription renews for another billing cycle. If it fails (for example, due to insufficient funds or a card expiry), Bloomberg typically sends reminder emails but may suspend your access.
The critical detail many subscribers miss: cancelling your subscription does not trigger an immediate refund for the current billing cycle. Instead, cancellation prevents the next charge. Your access continues until the end of your paid period, after which your account moves to a free or expired state.
Your legal position as a consumer in malaysia
Malaysian consumer law protects your right to cancel paid subscriptions and sets clear rules for billing, transparency, and dispute resolution. Understanding your legal standing helps you enforce cancellation effectively and recover funds if Bloomberg breaches its obligations.
Consumer protection act 1999 and auto-renewal rights
The Consumer Protection Act 1999 (CPA 1999) is the primary legislation governing your subscription with Bloomberg in Malaysia. Under the CPA 1999, Bloomberg must provide you with transparent contract terms before you subscribe, including the price, billing frequency, and cancellation process. Furthermore, auto-renewal clauses must be clear and conspicuous-you cannot be bound to automatic charges without explicit, informed consent.
Section 81 of the CPA 1999 explicitly prohibits unfair contract terms. A clause requiring you to jump through hidden hoops to cancel, or one that fails to disclose auto-renewal upfront, may be deemed unfair and thus unenforceable. In accordance with this provision, Bloomberg's cancellation method must be reasonably accessible-typically matching the ease of subscription.
Your legal position: You have the absolute right to cancel your Bloomberg subscription at any time before your next billing date and prevent further charges. If Bloomberg fails to honour a cancellation request submitted in good faith, you may lodge a complaint with the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs (KPDNKK), which enforces the CPA 1999 in Malaysia.
Refund entitlements under malaysian law
The CPA 1999 does not automatically guarantee a refund for services already consumed or paid for in full. However, you may pursue a refund if:
- You cancel within 14 days of purchase (cooling-off period) for online contracts, provided you have not downloaded or streamed substantial content.
- Bloomberg fails to provide the service as described (for example, access outages or promised features missing).
- Your cancellation request is ignored and Bloomberg charges you again despite your documented cancellation.
- You are charged for a subscription you did not authorise or cannot access due to a technical error on Bloomberg's side.
For disputes over refund claims, you may escalate to KPDNKK or pursue a civil claim through the Small Claims Court if the amount is within the court's jurisdiction (currently up to RM5,000 for consumer disputes).
Methods to cancel Bloomberg from malaysia
Bloomberg offers multiple cancellation pathways, but not all are equally visible or straightforward. Your subscription source-web, Apple App Store, or Google Play-determines which method you use to cancel without creating duplicate accounts or missed cancellations.
Cancelling through your bloomberg.com account
If you subscribed directly via Bloomberg.com, the web-based cancellation is your primary route. Bloomberg does not offer a single one-click self-service cancellation button visible in account settings; instead, you must initiate a support request within your account portal. This step-by-step process is designed to allow Bloomberg to offer you retention incentives (such as discounts) before finalising the cancellation.
- Visit bloomberg.com and log in using your email and password.
- Navigate to your account menu (usually in the top-right corner or under a profile icon).
- Select Account or Settings, then choose Subscriptions or Billing.
- Locate your active Bloomberg subscription plan and select Manage subscription or Billing details.
- Look for a link or button labeled Cancel subscription, Cancel my subscription, or Contact support to cancel.
- If no direct cancel button appears, click Help or Customer support from that page.
- In the support interface, select the category Subscriptions or Billing issues, then choose Cancel my subscription.
- Complete the cancellation form with your account details and the reason for cancellation (optional).
- Submit the form and wait for a confirmation email from Bloomberg support.
- Reply to that email or click the confirmation link to finalise the cancellation request.
Cancelling an app store subscription (Apple iOS)
If you subscribed to Bloomberg through the Apple App Store-indicated by an App Store charge on your billing statement-you must cancel through Apple's subscription management system, not through Bloomberg's website. Cancelling via the web does not stop App Store billing.
- On your iPhone or iPad, open the Settings app.
- Tap your name at the top of the screen.
- Select Subscriptions (or Media & Purchases, then Subscriptions on older iOS versions).
- Find Bloomberg in the list of active subscriptions.
- Tap Bloomberg, then select Cancel subscription or Edit.
- Confirm the cancellation. Apple displays a confirmation message; the subscription ends at the end of the current billing cycle.
- Take a screenshot of the cancellation confirmation for your records.
Alternatively, on a Mac or Apple device running macOS, open the App Store, click your account icon in the top-right corner, select Account Settings, navigate to Subscriptions, find Bloomberg, and click Manage, then Cancel.
Cancelling a google play subscription (Android)
Android users who subscribed via Google Play must cancel through the Google Play Store app or website. Cancelling elsewhere does not prevent Google from renewing your Bloomberg subscription.
- On your Android device, open the Google Play Store app.
- Tap your profile icon in the top-right corner.
- Select Payments and subscriptions, then Subscriptions.
- Find and tap Bloomberg.
- Tap Cancel subscription.
- Follow the on-screen prompts to confirm cancellation. Google displays a cancellation date.
- Screenshot the confirmation screen for your records.
Alternatively, visit play.google.com on any web browser, log in to your Google account, go to Manage your Google Play subscriptions, select Bloomberg, and click Cancel subscription.
Steps to cancel Bloomberg before your billing date
Timing is critical: you must submit your cancellation request before midnight (Malaysia Standard Time) on the day before your next billing date to prevent a charge. Yafee recommends tracking your billing date in your phone calendar and submitting cancellation at least 3 to 5 business days in advance to allow Bloomberg time to process your request.
Step 1: gather your account information before cancelling
Before you initiate cancellation, collect the following details from your Bloomberg account and recent billing statements. This information protects you if a dispute arises and ensures you cancel the correct subscription.
- Your exact next billing date (visible in Subscriptions or Account settings).
- Your current plan name (Premium, Annual, Tech Bundle, etc.).
- The email address linked to your Bloomberg account.
- The payment method used (credit card, debit card, Apple ID, Google Play account).
- A screenshot of your subscription page showing the renewal date and plan name.
- Your most recent Bloomberg billing email and bank or card statement showing the charge.
Step 2: choose your cancellation method based on subscription source
Your cancellation route depends on where you subscribed. Yafee advises users to check their most recent billing statement: if the charge shows "Bloomberg.com" or "Bloomberg *", use the web method; if it shows "App Store" or "iTunes", use Apple; if it shows "Google Play", use Google Play. Using the wrong method leaves your subscription active and unprotected.
Step 3: submit your cancellation request
Follow the method appropriate to your subscription source (web, Apple, or Google Play) as outlined in the section "Methods to cancel Bloomberg from Malaysia" above. Ensure you confirm and submit the cancellation form completely. Do not close the page until you receive an on-screen confirmation message or are redirected to a completion page.
Step 4: confirm and document your cancellation
Immediately after cancelling, take screenshots of the confirmation page and any confirmation email you receive. Yafee recommends forwarding the confirmation email to yourself with the subject line "Bloomberg Cancellation - [Date]" so it remains easily searchable. Save all documentation in a dedicated folder on your computer or cloud storage.
- Screenshot the cancellation confirmation page.
- Save the confirmation email from Bloomberg, Apple, or Google.
- Note the cancellation date and time in writing.
- Check your account 24 hours later to verify the subscription status changed to "Cancelled" or "Will end on [date]".
Step 5: monitor your payment method for unexpected charges
After cancelling, review your credit card or bank statement for the next 30 days. Look for any Bloomberg charge that appears after your cancellation date. If an unwanted charge posts, immediately contact your bank or card issuer and Bloomberg support, referencing your cancellation confirmation and the charge date.
What happens after you cancel Bloomberg
Cancelling your Bloomberg subscription triggers a specific sequence of events. Understanding this timeline prevents confusion and helps you prepare for loss of access.
Immediate effects and access window
Your cancellation takes effect immediately in Bloomberg's system, but your access does not end until the conclusion of your current paid billing period. For example, if you cancel on 15 March with a next billing date of 1 April, your access continues through 31 March. On 1 April, your subscription expires and you can no longer log in to Bloomberg.com or use the Bloomberg app (unless you subscribe again).
During this wind-down period, you retain full access to all content and features. Yafee advises users to export or save any articles, research, or data they may need after access ends, as Bloomberg does not preserve your reading history or saved articles after cancellation.
Refund timeline and expectations
If your cancellation occurs within 14 days of your original purchase date and you have not downloaded or streamed substantial content, you may request a refund under the Consumer Protection Act 1999's cooling-off period. Contact Bloomberg support in writing with your cancellation confirmation, purchase date, and refund request. Bloomberg typically processes refunds within 14 to 30 days to your original payment method.
If your cancellation occurs after the 14-day window, refunds are not automatic. However, you may still pursue a refund if Bloomberg fails to deliver the service, double-charges you, or ignores a documented cancellation request. In such cases, contact KPDNKK with evidence of your cancellation and the disputed charge.
Reactivating your subscription later
After cancellation, you retain the option to resubscribe at any time. Simply log back into Bloomberg.com or re-download the Bloomberg app and follow the subscription prompts. Your previous account data is preserved if you use the same email address. However, promotional rates offered at the time of reactivation may differ from your original offer.
Common mistakes when cancelling Bloomberg
Most cancellation problems arise not from Bloomberg's system but from user missteps. Being aware of these pitfalls protects you from failed cancellations and unplanned charges.
Confusing the subscription source and cancelling in the wrong place
The most frequent error: subscribers cancel via Bloomberg.com but subscribed through Apple App Store or Google Play. The result is a false sense of cancellation while the app-based subscription remains active and renews automatically. Yafee has assisted thousands of consumers who discovered this mistake only when a charge appeared on their bank statement. Always verify your subscription source by reviewing your billing statement, then cancel from the exact platform where you subscribed.
Submitting cancellation too close to the billing date
Bloomberg's support team may take 1 to 3 business days to process cancellation requests. If you submit your cancellation request on the same day or day before your next billing date, the renewal charge may post before cancellation is processed. Plan to cancel at least 5 business days before your next billing date to provide a safety buffer. Setting a phone reminder 7 days before your renewal date ensures you do not miss the window.
Failing to confirm cancellation in a follow-up email or link
Bloomberg sometimes sends a confirmation email requiring you to click a link or reply to complete the cancellation. If you receive such an email and do not click the link or reply within the specified timeframe (usually 24 to 48 hours), your cancellation request may lapse and your subscription remains active. Check your email inbox and spam folder immediately after submitting a cancellation form.
Not tracking your billing date or keeping proof
Without documentation of your cancellation, resolving disputes becomes significantly harder. If Bloomberg or your payment processor questions whether you cancelled, you have no verifiable record. Screenshot your cancellation confirmation and email it to yourself with the date in the subject line. This simple act provides evidence if a dispute arises later.

Escalation to KPDNKK (Ministry of domestic trade and consumer affairs)
If Bloomberg does not resolve your complaint within 14 days or refuses to honour your cancellation, lodge a formal complaint with KPDNKK. This is Malaysia's primary consumer protection agency and has power to enforce the Consumer Protection Act 1999 against Bloomberg.
KPDNKK Contact Details:
- Website: kpdnkk.gov.my
- Hotline: 1-800-88-5050 (toll-free) or 03-8882-5050

Why you should cancel Bloomberg and take action now
Many Malaysian subscribers retain their Bloomberg subscriptions out of inertia, paying renewal fees for content they rarely use. If you subscribed for a specific project, event, or trial and no longer read Bloomberg regularly, the renewal cost (RM189 per month or RM850 annually) often exceeds the value delivered. Even a modest improvement in financial awareness or market knowledge may not justify the ongoing expense if you consume fewer than one article per day.
Furthermore, every month you delay cancellation represents another automatic charge that you may struggle to recover. The sooner you cancel, the sooner you halt unnecessary billing and regain control of your subscription portfolio.
Yafee has helped thousands of consumers cancel Bloomberg and other recurring subscriptions. Take action today: identify your subscription source, locate your next billing date, and submit your cancellation request using the method appropriate to your account. Protect yourself now, and avoid paying for a service you no longer value.
Summary and next steps
Cancelling Bloomberg in Malaysia is straightforward once you understand the legal framework, identify your subscription source, and follow the correct procedural steps. The Consumer Protection Act 1999 protects your right to cancel at any time, and auto-renewal cannot continue without your explicit, informed consent.
Your action plan: (1) determine whether you subscribed via Bloomberg.com, Apple App Store, or Google Play; (2) locate your next billing date; (3) submit your cancellation request at least 5 business days before that date using the method matching your subscription source; (4) screenshot and save all confirmation details; and (5) verify cancellation status 24 hours later and monitor your payment method for 30 days. If Bloomberg fails to cancel or charges you after cancellation, escalate to KPDNKK for enforcement action under Malaysian consumer law.
Yafee stands ready to guide you through the cancellation process. Whether you choose to cancel via the web, Apple, or Google Play, follow the steps in this guide and keep your documentation secure. If a dispute arises, you will have clear proof of your cancellation date and Bloomberg's failure to honour your request.
