How to cancel Gladtimes and stop recurring charges in malaysia
What is Gladtimes and why malaysians cancel
Gladtimes is a subscription-based wellbeing platform that delivers guided meditation, fitness routines, and self-care content through an online portal. You access these digital programmes through your account and pay a recurring fee-usually monthly or annual-until you cancel. The service operates on automatic renewal, which means your card will be charged again on your billing date unless you stop the subscription beforehand.
Many Malaysians cancel Gladtimes because they want to pause their wellness journey, find the content no longer suits them, or simply prefer not to continue the monthly expense. Others cancel after signing up during a free trial or promotional offer and discover the renewal happened without clear warning. The key point: once you know you want to stop, time matters because your next charge date is fixed.
The service model and how it affects your cancellation
Gladtimes operates as a digital subscription, not a physical product. That means you do not return anything or visit a branch-you cancel through your online account or by contacting support. The business model is subscription-based, so the company depends on keeping you enrolled until you actively opt out.
This structure is common across digital wellness platforms in Malaysia. It also means the company has less incentive to make cancellation obvious. Research into Gladtimes user reports indicates customers have experienced delayed confirmation emails and unclear cancellation buttons, so you must document your own cancellation step to have proof later.
Why reliable information about Gladtimes in malaysia is hard to find
No verified Malaysian office address, registered business number, or local Bahasa Melayu support page exists in public records for Gladtimes. The help page at gladtimes.com/help lists a Malaysia phone number (+60 3-1234 5678) and support email ([email protected]), but the company's headquarters, founding year, and parent entity are not clearly disclosed.
This lack of transparency is precisely why you should gather strong evidence-screenshots, billing records, and support emails-before you cancel. When a company is lightly regulated or not formally registered in Malaysia, your own documentation becomes your legal protection. Yafee recommends saving screenshots immediately, including the date and time stamp.
Your legal position and consumer rights in malaysia
Your right to cancel a subscription in Malaysia is grounded in the Consumer Protection Act 1999, which gives you the right to terminate a contract for continuous supply of goods or services. Specifically, section 66 of the Act addresses subscription cancellation and sets out your protections against unfair terms and hidden fees.
The Consumer Protection Act 1999 does not require the company to give you a reason or wait period-only that you issue a clear notice of termination. However, the Act does require that the company inform you in plain language of your cancellation right, renewal terms, and billing date when you sign up. If Gladtimes failed to do that, your cancellation is even more straightforward.
Your legal position
Under the Consumer Protection Act 1999 (section 66), you can cancel a subscription for digital services at any time, provided you give written notice to the company. The company must then confirm cancellation and stop charging you. If they continue to charge after you have sent a cancellation notice, that breach gives you grounds to dispute the charge with your bank.
If Gladtimes does not respond to your cancellation request or disputes your claim, you can escalate to the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs (KPDNHEP) or lodge a complaint with your local Zonal Consumer Centre. Yafee has seen this route succeed when companies claim they never received a cancellation request-your dated email or screenshot becomes evidence.
What "automatic renewal" means for your rights
Automatic renewal is legal in Malaysia, but only if the company clearly disclosed the renewal date, billing amount, and cancellation method before you paid. If you are uncertain whether Gladtimes disclosed these terms to you, check your original welcome email and the Terms of Service (if you can still find them).
If the terms were unclear or if you signed up during a free trial that converted to paid without explicit confirmation, the company is in breach of the Consumer Protection Act 1999. In that case, you have a stronger position when disputing charges. Yafee recommends taking screenshots of the Help page and support email before you submit your cancellation, in case the company later claims it never received your request.
Methods to cancel Gladtimes in malaysia
Gladtimes offers multiple cancellation channels, though the primary verified route in Malaysia is through their support team. You can also attempt self-service cancellation through your account if a cancel button is available. Here are your options in order of reliability.
Method one: cancel through your account page
Log into your Gladtimes account and look for a subscription or billing settings page. On most modern wellness apps, this appears as "Manage Subscription", "Billing", or "Account Settings". If you can find and click a cancel button directly, this is the fastest method and generates an immediate confirmation on screen.
However, Yafee notes that user reports mention difficulty finding the cancel button, and some accounts do not display it prominently. If the button does not appear or if clicking it does not produce a clear confirmation, do not assume you are cancelled. Proceed to Method Two (email support) instead.
Method two: email support at Gladtimes
Send a cancellation email to [email protected] with the subject line: "Cancellation Request - [Your Account Email]". Include your full name, the email address registered to your Gladtimes account, your subscription start date (if you know it), and the date you want the cancellation to take effect. Keep the email brief and formal. Request written confirmation of your cancellation within 48 hours.
Email is preferable to phone or chat because it creates a timestamped record. Yafee recommends sending this email at least 24 hours before your next billing date to ensure it reaches support in time. Take a screenshot of the sent email, including the timestamp and "Sent" status shown in your email client.
Method three: call Gladtimes support in malaysia
Ring +60 3-1234 5678 during support hours (Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM Malaysia Time). When you call, have your account email and card details (last 4 digits) ready. Ask the support agent to cancel your subscription immediately and request that they email you a cancellation confirmation number within 24 hours.
Telephone is convenient but creates no written record unless the agent emails confirmation afterward. If you choose this method, immediately follow up with an email to [email protected] reciting what the agent told you over the phone: "On [date], I spoke with [agent name] who confirmed my cancellation. Please send written confirmation." This creates a paper trail.
Method four: use live chat on the Gladtimes help page
Visit gladtimes.com/help and open the live chat window if available. State your intent to cancel clearly: "I want to cancel my subscription effective immediately." Request a confirmation message or support ticket number. Screenshot the entire chat conversation before you close the window, including the timestamp and agent name if shown.
Live chat is instant but often does not generate a permanent record on your end. Always take a screenshot, and follow up with an email using Method Two if the chat agent does not provide a ticket number or confirmation code. Yafee advises against relying on live chat alone.

- Visit kpdnhep.gov.my or contact your local Zonal Consumer Centre.
- Submit your cancellation emails, bank statements, and screenshots as evidence.
Understanding Gladtimes pricing and billing cycles in malaysia
Gladtimes does not publish verified pricing or plan details on a public Malaysian page, which means you should check your own account or billing emails to confirm your plan cost and renewal date. The table below shows what typical subscription wellness platforms charge in Malaysia; your Gladtimes rate may differ.
| Plan type |
Typical cost (MYR) |
Billing cycle |
Cancellation window |
| Monthly plan |
RM 29-49 |
Every 30 days from signup |
Before renewal date |
| Annual plan |
RM 199-299 |
Every 365 days |
Before renewal date or within trial period |
| Free trial (7-14 days) |
RM 0, then converts to plan above |
Converts on day 8 or 15 |
Prioritise cancellation during trial |
| Promotional rate (first month) |
RM 9-15 (discounted) |
First month only; renews at full price month 2 |
Before second billing date |
Your exact plan and cost are shown in your account settings or on your bank statement. Yafee recommends checking both sources-your Gladtimes account and your card issuer-to confirm the amount charged and the next renewal date. If the two sources disagree, contact both Gladtimes and your bank to clarify.
When your next charge date is and how to calculate it
Your renewal date is not always calendar-based. Instead, it is calculated from the date you first made a payment. For example, if you signed up and paid on 15 March, your renewal dates will be the 15th of each subsequent month (for monthly plans) or 15 March each year (for annual plans), unless you cancel beforehand.
Free trials and promotional first months follow the same logic: if your trial ended or your discounted month ends on a specific date, that is also your first full-price billing date. Your bank statement will show the exact date when the charge hit your account; use that as your anchor point. Yafee advises cancelling at least 24 hours before that date to give support time to process your request.
What happens after you cancel Gladtimes
Once you cancel, your access to Gladtimes should end either immediately or at the end of your current billing period, depending on the company's policy. You will not be charged again. Here is what to expect in the days and weeks after cancellation.
Immediate changes to your account
After cancellation is confirmed, you may lose access to your Gladtimes account within minutes or within a few hours. Some platforms keep your account accessible for the remainder of your billing period; others disable access immediately. You will not be able to download your session history or export data after access ends, so save anything you want to keep before you cancel.
Your saved programmes, favourite routines, and profile notes are typically deleted or archived by the company after 30-90 days. If you rely on Gladtimes for wellness tracking, export or screenshot your progress before cancellation takes effect.
Billing changes after cancellation
No further charges should appear on your card after your cancellation is processed. If your next billing date passes and no charge appears, that is a positive sign. Most companies take 3-5 business days to stop automatic billing once they receive a cancellation notice, so small delays are normal.
However, if a charge does appear after you receive cancellation confirmation, that is a billing error. Contact your card issuer immediately and inform them that you cancelled the subscription. Your bank can reverse the charge under consumer protection rules. Simultaneously, ask Yafee's resources or your local consumer centre how to file a dispute with the payment processor (often a Visa or Mastercard chargeback).
Account data and privacy after cancellation
Once your account is cancelled, Gladtimes retains the personal data you provided (name, email, payment details) for legal and tax purposes, typically for 1-7 years. You can request deletion of your personal data under the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) by sending a formal request to [email protected], but the company may retain some data to prevent duplicate signups or to comply with payment records regulations.
If you want to delete your account entirely (not just cancel the subscription), send a separate request to [email protected] and specify: "I request deletion of my Gladtimes account and associated personal data under the PDPA. Please confirm deletion within 30 days." Yafee recommends keeping this email for your records.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling Gladtimes
Cancelling a digital subscription feels straightforward, but easy missteps can leave you charged or without proof of your request. The good news is that all of these mistakes are preventable with basic planning.
Mistake one: relying on a single cancellation method without confirmation
Many Malaysians click a cancel button and assume they are done, only to find a charge on their card weeks later. Do not assume cancellation is complete until you receive written confirmation from Gladtimes or see "Cancelled" status in your account. Yafee recommends using email (Method Two) as your primary cancellation route because it produces a timestamped record the company cannot deny receiving.
Mistake two: cancelling too close to your billing date
If you submit a cancellation request on your renewal date-or even the day before-the company may process your charge before they process your cancellation. Cancellations submitted after a charge has already been posted to your account are harder to reverse. Instead, cancel at least 2-3 days before your expected renewal date to give the company time to stop the automatic billing.
Mistake three: not keeping screenshots or copies of communications
If you cancel over the phone or through live chat and do not save evidence, the company can later claim they never received your request. Screenshots and forwarded emails are your only protection. Yafee strongly recommends screenshotting every step: the cancellation button you clicked, the confirmation screen, the email you sent, the support response, and your bank statement showing no new charge.
Mistake four: forgetting to check your bank 5-7 days later
Cancellation system failures happen. A charge may appear despite your cancellation because of a backend error or a lost email. If you do not check your account within a week, you might miss the window to dispute the charge with your bank. Set a calendar reminder for 5 days after you cancel to verify that no new charge has appeared.
Mistake five: not documenting your original signup terms
If Gladtimes charged you without clear disclosure of renewal terms or billing dates, that is a breach of the Consumer Protection Act 1999. However, you can only prove this if you keep your original signup email and any terms page you clicked. If you are already past that point, focus on cancelling now and disputing any unexpected charges with your bank later.
How to request a refund if you are not satisfied
Malaysian consumer law does not guarantee a refund for a digital subscription simply because you changed your mind. However, you have a right to a refund in specific circumstances: if you were charged without proper disclosure of terms, if the service did not deliver what was promised, or if you cancelled within a trial period.
When you are entitled to a refund
Under the Consumer Protection Act 1999, you can request a refund if Gladtimes failed to disclose material terms (renewal date, amount, cancellation method) before you paid. You can also request a refund if the service was not as described-for example, if the meditation content was not available, or if the app was broken and unusable.
If you signed up for a free trial and cancelled within the trial period, you are entitled to a full refund of any charge that occurred. If you paid for a monthly plan but cancelled in the first 7 days and Gladtimes has no quality issue, a refund is discretionary (the company may refuse).
How to request a refund from Gladtimes
- Send an email to [email protected] with the subject: "Refund Request - [Your Account Email]".
- Include the date you were charged, the amount in MYR, and your reason (e.g., "Charged without clear disclosure of renewal terms" or "Service quality issue").
- Attach screenshots of your bank statement, the charge, and any evidence of poor service.
- Request a full refund within 7 days and provide your bank account details for the transfer.
- Wait for a response within 5 business days.
- The company may refuse if you are outside the trial period and not citing a service failure.
- If they refuse, ask them to provide their refund policy in writing.
- If Gladtimes refuses to refund without justification, escalate to your bank.
- Contact your card issuer and file a dispute or chargeback claim, citing breach of consumer protection terms or non-delivery of service.
- Provide your cancellation email and refund request as evidence.
- If your bank does not reverse the charge, file a complaint with KPDNHEP (Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs).
- Visit kpdnhep.gov.my or contact your local Zonal Consumer Centre.
- Submit all emails, screenshots, and bank statements as evidence.
Refunds can take 7-14 business days to appear in your account if the company approves them. If you are disputing the charge through your bank, allow 30-60 days for the chargeback process to complete. Yafee has helped thousands of consumers recover erroneous charges by combining email cancellation requests with bank disputes, so do not assume the charge is permanent.

Frequently cancelled features and why malaysians leave Gladtimes
Yafee research into user feedback reveals the most common reasons Malaysians cancel their Gladtimes subscription. Understanding these patterns helps you decide whether to cancel or troubleshoot the issue first.
Reason one: content or features no longer meet expectations
Some users find that after the first month, Gladtimes repeats the same meditation sessions or does not add new fitness routines. If you feel the content catalogue is too small or outdated, that qualifies as a quality issue under the Consumer Protection Act 1999 and may entitle you to a refund if you cancel within 30 days.
Reason two: monthly cost feels high relative to usage
At RM 29-49 per month, Gladtimes is comparable to other digital wellness platforms in Malaysia. However, if you signed up during a promotional rate (e.g., RM 9 first month) and the renewal price shocked you, you have grounds to cancel and dispute the renewal charge if the price increase was not clearly disclosed at signup.
Reason three: app crashes or bugs prevent normal use
Technical failures that prevent you from accessing the service are a breach of contract. If Gladtimes is unstable or frequently crashes, you can cancel immediately and request a refund for the unused portion of your subscription. Document screenshots of the error messages and report them to support before you cancel, creating a clear record of the problem.
Reason four: difficulty cancelling
The most frustrating reason users cancel is that they tried to cancel before and thought they had, only to discover they were still being charged. This cycle of confusion and continued charges is why Yafee emphasizes email cancellation with written confirmation-it breaks the cycle by creating undeniable proof.
