Frequently asked questions
Cancel Easybib: The Right Way
How to cancel Easybib in malaysia and stop recurring charges
What Easybib is and why malaysians use it
Easybib is a citation and bibliography tool designed for students, researchers, and academic writers who need quick, accurate references in formats like APA, MLA, and Chicago style. The service operates as a monthly subscription under Chegg, Inc., a US-based educational technology company. Understanding the service structure is essential before you attempt to cancel, because Easybib's billing and support infrastructure sits within Chegg's systems.
The Easybib business model explained
Easybib offers both free and paid tiers. The paid version, Easybib Plus, charges you a recurring monthly fee unless you actively cancel. The service auto-renews each billing cycle, meaning your card will be charged automatically on the same date every month until you stop the subscription. This automatic renewal model is the primary reason users struggle to cancel-many assume the subscription has ended, only to discover a fresh charge 30 days later.
Chegg owns Easybib outright, and as a consequence, all billing inquiries, cancellation requests, and account support route through Chegg's systems. Your cancellation must be processed through Chegg's support infrastructure, not an independent Easybib portal. This matters because response times and cancellation confirmation procedures follow Chegg's protocols, not Easybib's.
Current pricing for malaysian users
Easybib Plus costs approximately RM45 per month (USD $9.95). A bundled option, Easybib Plus and Chegg Study Pack, costs around RM90 monthly (USD $19.95) and includes textbook solutions, expert question-and-answer access, and practice problems on top of citation features. If you subscribed to the bundle without realising, you are paying for services beyond the citation tool alone.
Pricing fluctuates based on promotional offers, so your actual charge may differ from the baseline rates listed above. Always verify your active plan and next billing date by logging into your account before initiating cancellation.
Your legal position as a malaysian consumer
Malaysia's Consumer Protection Act 1999 grants you specific rights when cancelling digital subscriptions. Your legal standing protects you from hidden charges and unfair contract terms.
Consumer protection act 1999 and automatic renewal
Under the Consumer Protection Act 1999, any business offering goods or services in Malaysia must provide you with clear information about recurring charges and cancellation procedures before you consent. Furthermore, the Act requires traders to make cancellation "as easy as" subscription activation. If Easybib's cancellation process is deliberately obscured or harder to perform than sign-up, it breaches this standard.
In accordance with the Act, you have the right to cancel without penalty at any time. Easybib's practice of charging you through the end of your billing period is lawful-you do not get a refund for unused days-but only if you cancelled in time to stop the next renewal cycle.
Your legal position
You can cancel Easybib at any time during your active billing period. The subscription will remain active until your current paid cycle ends (for example, if you pay monthly, your access continues until the last day of that month). After that date, your access stops and no further charges occur. You are not entitled to a pro-rata refund for the remainder of the month unless you cancelled within a statutory cooling-off period (which only applies within 14 days of first purchase for distance contracts). Chegg must confirm your cancellation in writing, either by email or in-app notification.
If Chegg continues charging after you cancel, you have grounds to lodge a complaint with the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs (MDTCA), the enforcement body for the Consumer Protection Act 1999.
Methods to cancel Easybib
Easybib offers multiple cancellation channels, though not all are equally transparent. Yafee has identified three primary routes: account settings, email support, and escalation to Chegg directly.
Cancellation via account settings (web portal)
The fastest path is to cancel through your Easybib account settings on the web. Log in, navigate to your subscription or billing tab, and locate the "Cancel Subscription" or "Manage Plan" button. The exact label varies, but it is typically found under Settings, Account, or Billing. Click to initiate cancellation, confirm your request, and look for an on-screen confirmation or receipt number.
This method produces an immediate digital record, which protects you if a dispute arises later. Yafee recommends screenshotting the confirmation page for your records.
Cancellation via email support
If you cannot locate the web cancellation button, or if your account is locked, email Chegg's support team directly. Address your message to [email protected] with the subject line "Easybib Cancellation Request." Include your full name, email address tied to your Easybib account, and the date you wish the cancellation to take effect. Request written confirmation of the cancellation within 48 hours.
Email-based cancellation is slower than the web method but creates a documented paper trail. Consequently, it is the preferred method if you suspect the company may dispute your cancellation later.
Escalation to chegg customer service
If [email protected] does not respond within 5 business days, or if the cancellation is not processed, contact Chegg's main customer service line. Visit chegg.com, navigate to the Help or Support section, and submit a formal cancellation request through their contact form. Specify that you are an Easybib customer and that your previous email (with the date and time sent) went unacknowledged.
Document every contact attempt. This record becomes evidence if you later need to escalate to the MDTCA or dispute an unauthorised charge with your bank.
Step-by-step cancellation procedure
Follow these steps in sequence to ensure your cancellation is recorded and processed correctly. Yafee has structured this process to minimise the risk of failed cancellation or surprise charges.
Step 1: log in and verify your account details
- Open easybib.com and sign in with your username and password.
- Navigate to your Account or Settings page.
- Look for a menu option labeled "My Account," "Subscription," "Billing," or "Manage Plan."
- If your account uses single sign-on (e.g., Google or Facebook login), use the same method.
- Record the following information:
- Your full name and email address associated with the account.
- Your current plan name (e.g., "Easybib Plus" or "Easybib Plus and Chegg Study Pack").
- Your next billing date.
- The payment method on file (last four digits of your card or bank account).
- Take a screenshot of this page and save it to your device or cloud storage.
Step 2: export or save your citations and data
- Before you cancel, access any saved citations, bibliographies, or projects in your Easybib account.
- Use the export feature (if available) to download your citations as a PDF, Word document, or text file.
- If no export feature exists, copy and paste your work into a separate document and save it locally.
- Easybib's terms do not guarantee continued access to saved data after cancellation, so treat this as your final opportunity to retrieve your work.
- Store these files securely-ideally in both a local folder and a cloud backup (Google Drive, OneDrive, etc.).
Step 3: navigate to the cancellation page
- On the Account or Subscription page, look for a button or link labeled "Cancel Subscription," "End Membership," "Downgrade," or "Manage Plan."
- This button may be located at the bottom of the page, in a sidebar menu, or under an "Actions" dropdown.
- If you cannot find it, try searching the page for the word "cancel" using Ctrl+F (Windows) or Cmd+F (Mac).
- Click the cancellation button.
- You may be prompted with a retention screen offering discounts or pause options. Read this carefully but proceed to cancel unless you genuinely wish to pause instead.
Step 4: confirm the cancellation request
- A confirmation dialog will appear asking you to verify your cancellation.
- Read the message carefully to confirm the date your access will end and when charges stop.
- Look for a statement such as "Your access will end on [date] and no further charges will apply after [date]."
- Click "Confirm Cancellation" or "Yes, Cancel My Subscription."
- The system will display a confirmation screen with a reference number. Screenshot this page immediately.
Step 5: receive and store your cancellation confirmation
- Within 2-24 hours, you should receive a confirmation email from Chegg or Easybib to the email address on your account.
- The email will state your subscription has been cancelled and specify the final access date.
- If the email includes a refund status, review it carefully (refunds are not guaranteed; see the Refund Policy section below).
- Save this email in a dedicated folder on your device and also forward it to yourself on a backup email account if possible.
- Do not delete this email for at least 12 months, even after your access ends.
Step 6: verify cancellation before your next billing date
- Three to five days before your next scheduled billing date, log back into your Easybib account.
- Check whether the "Cancel Subscription" button still appears (if it does, cancellation may not have gone through).
- Look for a status message confirming the cancellation is pending or active.
- If the cancellation is not showing, or if you see a new charge on your bank statement on the scheduled date, proceed to Step 7 immediately.
Step 7: follow up if cancellation fails
- If you are charged after confirming cancellation, email [email protected] within 24 hours of the charge.
- Include your cancellation confirmation number or the screenshot you took in Step 4.
- State: "I cancelled my Easybib subscription on [date] with confirmation number [####]. I was charged on [date]. Please reverse this charge and confirm in writing that my subscription is now cancelled."
- If Chegg does not respond within 5 business days, or if they refuse the refund, file a dispute with your bank or credit card issuer immediately. Provide your cancellation confirmation as evidence.
- You can also lodge a formal complaint with the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs (see the Escalation section below).
Understanding the refund policy
Easybib and Chegg do not issue automatic refunds when you cancel mid-cycle. This is lawful under Malaysian contract law, provided you were clearly informed of this term before you subscribed.
When you are not entitled to a refund
If you cancel after the 14-day cooling-off period (which applies only to distance contracts if you did not receive the terms clearly before purchase), you are not entitled to a refund for the unused portion of your current billing cycle. For example, if you paid RM45 on 1 June for a monthly subscription and cancel on 15 June, you do not receive RM22.50 back for the remaining 15 days. Your access simply ends on 30 June, and no further charges occur after that date.
This is standard practice for subscription services globally, and Malaysian law permits it.
When you may be entitled to a refund
You may be entitled to a refund in the following scenarios:
- You cancelled within 14 days of your first charge (cooling-off period for distance contracts).
- You were charged twice in a single billing cycle (duplicate charge).
- You were charged after you cancelled and before your access actually ended.
- You were charged in error (e.g., you cancelled but the system failed to process it).
- The service was unavailable for more than 30 consecutive days during your billing period.
If any of these apply, email [email protected] and request a refund with evidence (screenshots, cancellation confirmation, duplicate charge proof).
What happens after you cancel
Cancellation is not instantaneous; your subscription follows a specific wind-down process. Understanding this timeline prevents confusion and unexpected charges.
Access during the wind-down period
After you cancel, Easybib keeps your access active until the end of your current billing cycle. If you cancel on 15 June and your cycle ends on 30 June, you retain full access until 30 June at 11:59 PM. On 1 July, your access terminates automatically. This "paid-through" model is common and protects both you and Chegg-you have time to export your citations, and Chegg avoids partial-month refund disputes.
What happens to your saved data
Easybib's terms do not explicitly state whether your saved citations, projects, or account history persist after cancellation. Consequently, you should assume that after your access ends, you cannot retrieve any saved data. This is why Step 2 of the cancellation procedure (exporting your citations) is critical. Do not rely on re-subscribing later to recover lost work.
Re-subscription and promotional pricing
After you cancel, you may receive promotional emails offering discounted rates to re-subscribe (e.g., "Come back for RM29.99 next month"). These offers are standard marketing; you are not obligated to accept them. If you do re-subscribe, the new subscription is a fresh contract with its own auto-renewal terms, so ensure you understand the charge frequency and cancellation procedure before confirming.
Common mistakes and how to avoid them
Thousands of Easybib users have experienced cancellation failures. The mistakes below are preventable with the right approach. Yafee has documented these pitfalls to help you navigate them.
Mistake 1: assuming silence means cancellation
Many users cancel, see no error message, and assume the process is complete. Days later, they are charged again. The absence of an error does not confirm cancellation-only a confirmation email or notification does. Always wait for a confirmation message before considering the cancellation final. If you do not receive one within 24 hours, follow up with Chegg's support team via email.
Mistake 2: relying on app or mobile site cancellation
Easybib's mobile app and mobile website sometimes have bugs or incomplete cancellation flows. Whenever possible, cancel via the desktop web browser and full website (easybib.com on a laptop or computer). The desktop experience is more stable and produces clearer confirmation screens.
Mistake 3: forgetting the billing date
If you cancel on 25 June but your billing date is 1 July, you are still charged on 1 July-your cancellation takes effect after that final charge. Many users cancel believing they have avoided the next charge, only to be billed days later. Note your exact billing date in Step 1 and ensure you cancel well before it (ideally 5-7 days early).
Mistake 4: not screenshotting the confirmation
Chegg's email confirmations sometimes arrive late or are filtered as spam. A screenshot of your on-screen confirmation number is your primary evidence of cancellation. If Chegg later claims no cancellation was requested, your screenshot proves otherwise and protects you in disputes with your bank or complaints to the MDTCA.
Mistake 5: ignoring unexpected charges
If you are charged after cancellation, do not ignore it. Contact Chegg within 24 hours and request a reversal. The longer you wait, the harder it is to dispute the charge with your bank. Immediate action is critical.

| Easybib free tier | Free | Free | Basic citation generation, limited to 3 citation styles, no grammar or plagiarism tools |
Escalation and formal complaints
If Chegg refuses to cancel your subscription or reverse an unauthorised charge, you have formal recourse through Malaysia's consumer protection system. Yafee recommends exhausting direct contact first, then escalating to the MDTCA if necessary.
Lodging a complaint with the ministry of domestic trade and consumer affairs
The MDTCA is the statutory body responsible for enforcing the Consumer Protection Act 1999. If Chegg fails to honour your cancellation or refund request within 14 days of your written request, you can file a formal complaint online or by post.
To lodge a complaint:
- Visit the MDTCA online complaint portal at mycomplaints.mdtcc.gov.my.
- Select "Service providers" and search for "Chegg" or "Easybib."
- Provide your account details, dates of attempted cancellation, screenshots of confirmation screens, and copies of all emails exchanged with Chegg support.
- Describe the issue clearly (e.g., "I cancelled on [date] with confirmation number [####], but was charged again on [date]").
- Submit the complaint. The MDTCA will investigate and contact Chegg on your behalf.
The MDTCA has legal authority to compel businesses to comply with the Consumer Protection Act 1999 and can impose fines or require refunds if a breach is found.
Disputing the charge with your bank
If Chegg charges you after cancellation, you can also dispute the charge directly with your bank or credit card issuer. Provide your cancellation confirmation and the disputed charge as evidence. Most banks allow disputes to be filed within 90 days of the charge. Your bank will reverse the charge pending investigation if the claim is valid, and Chegg will be required to respond.

Why customers cancel Easybib
Understanding why users cancel helps you assess whether cancellation is the right choice for you. Common reasons include completion of academic projects, switching to alternative citation tools, budget constraints, and dissatisfaction with features or support.
Completion of study or project
Many students subscribe for the duration of a research project, essay, or degree programme. Once the project ends or graduation occurs, the service is no longer needed. If this applies to you, cancellation is straightforward: process the cancellation through the steps above and confirm your access ends on your final project deadline.
Switching to a competitor
Some users switch to Mendeley, Zotero, or other citation managers that better suit their workflow or budget. If you have already set up your citations in an alternative tool, cancelling Easybib is appropriate. Export your Easybib citations first (Step 2 of the cancellation procedure) to ensure no data is lost during the transition.
Budget reduction
Many students operate on limited budgets, particularly in Malaysia where subscription costs accumulate across multiple services. If you no longer have budget for Easybib, you can downgrade to the free tier (which offers basic citation generation) or cancel entirely and switch to free alternatives such as BibTeX or EasyBib's own free tier.
Dissatisfaction with service
Users occasionally cancel due to slow response times, inaccurate citations, or poor customer support. If poor service is your reason, consider leaving feedback in your cancellation request to help Chegg improve.
