Frequently asked questions
Cancel Looread: The Right Way
How to cancel Looread in malaysia: your legal rights and step-by-step guide
What Looread is and why you may want to cancel
Looread is a subscription-based software service that offers access to reading content, primarily web novels and story collections through mobile apps. The service operates on a recurring membership model rather than a one-time purchase, which means charges recur automatically until you actively cancel.
How Looread operates in malaysia
Looread does not publish a verified Malaysia-specific pricing page, local contact number, or postal address for cancellations. The company operates support via email at [email protected], with service hours Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM GMT+8. This lack of transparent local infrastructure is a common concern for Malaysian subscribers who wish to cancel.
The service is available through mobile channels, and billing typically flows through one of three routes: your Apple App Store account (iOS), Google Play Store account (Android), or direct billing to your card or digital wallet through Looread's own platform. Understanding which billing channel processes your charges is critical before you attempt cancellation, because cancelling in the wrong location will leave your recurring subscription active.
Typical pricing and billing cycles
Research identifies an Unlimited Read membership at approximately RM70.75 (USD 14.99) per week. This represents a substantial weekly commitment, and you should verify the exact amount charged to your account before proceeding with cancellation. Weekly billing cycles mean charges recur frequently, so any delay in cancellation compounds the cost quickly.
Many users report that Looread does not clearly display cancellation options within the app or account dashboard, which creates friction when you decide to stop your subscription. Yafee recommends documenting all subscription details before you begin any cancellation attempt, because transparent record-keeping protects you if disputes arise.
Your legal position under malaysian consumer law
Malaysian consumer protection law grants you clear statutory rights when cancelling digital subscriptions, and understanding these rights ensures you do not accept invalid refusals or hidden charges.
Consumer protection act 1999 and your cancellation rights
The Consumer Protection Act 1999 is the primary statute protecting Malaysian consumers in transactions with businesses like Looread. Under this Act, you have the right to cancel a distance contract (which includes digital subscriptions) within a cooling-off period, typically 10 calendar days from the date the contract is concluded, provided the contract was not entered into in a physical location.
Furthermore, if Looread has misrepresented its service, failed to disclose material terms such as cancellation procedures, or engaged in misleading conduct regarding billing frequency, you may claim relief under section 10 of the Act, which prohibits false or misleading representations. Consequently, if the company does not display a clear cancellation method, that absence itself may breach the transparency requirements of consumer law.
Your legal position: You have the statutory right to cancel any distance contract within 10 calendar days of conclusion; you are entitled to full refunds for payments made during the cooling-off period; and you may demand transparent disclosure of all charges and cancellation procedures. If Looread refuses or delays, the Federation of Malaysian Consumers Associations (FOMCA) and the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (KPDNHEP) are your escalation routes.
Your rights to transparency and refunds
The Consumer Protection Act 1999 requires that all material terms, including the cost, billing frequency, and cancellation method, be provided in clear language before you commit to a contract. If Looread charges a weekly fee but does not display cancellation instructions prominently, you have grounds to request a full refund for all charges incurred, even after the cooling-off period, on the basis of non-compliance with transparency requirements.
Additionally, if you cancel your subscription correctly but Looread continues to charge you after the cancellation takes effect, those additional charges are unlawful, and you are entitled to dispute them through your payment provider (your bank, card issuer, or app store). Yafee advises that you retain all evidence of your cancellation request and all subsequent charges, because these documents are essential if you escalate the matter to FOMCA or KPDNHEP.
Methods for cancelling Looread based on your billing platform
Your cancellation method depends entirely on which platform processes your recurring charges: the Looread app itself, Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or a third-party payment processor. Cancelling through the wrong channel is the most common reason subscriptions continue charging after a user believes they have cancelled.
Identify your billing channel before you cancel
Open your email and search for receipts from Looread, Apple (iTunes receipts), Google Play, PayPal, or your bank. The payment confirmation email will identify which service actually charged you. You should also log into your bank or credit card statement and cross-reference the merchant name on the transaction. Only after you have confirmed the billing source should you proceed to the relevant cancellation channel.
If you subscribed through the Looread app directly, your cancellation route is the app itself or the Looread support email. If you subscribed through the App Store or Google Play, you must cancel through that store's subscription management section, not through Looread. This distinction is non-negotiable: cancelling in the wrong location will leave you charged indefinitely.
Step-by-step cancellation process
Follow these procedures in sequence, and create written evidence of every step you take so you can prove cancellation if disputes arise.
Step 1: document your current subscription details
- Open the Looread app or log into your Looread account via the website.
- Navigate to your account settings, profile, or subscription management section. Look for tabs labelled "Account," "Profile," "Settings," "Membership," "My Subscription," or "Manage Subscription."
- Take a screenshot of your current plan name and monthly or weekly cost.
- Note the exact next billing date displayed in your account.
- Save the name of the payment method shown (for example, "Visa ending 1234" or "Google Play account").
- Open your email and locate your most recent Looread charge receipt or confirmation email.
- Note the date of the charge, the exact amount in RM, and the merchant name on the receipt (this reveals your billing channel).
- Save a copy of this receipt to a folder on your device or email it to yourself for safekeeping.
Step 2: cancel through your app store if you subscribed via iOS or android
If your receipt shows "Apple" or "App Store" as the merchant, cancel through Apple. If it shows "Google Play," cancel through Google. If it shows "Looread" directly, skip to Step 3.
For Apple App Store (iOS):
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
- Tap your name at the top of the Settings menu.
- Select "Subscriptions."
- Find and tap "Looread" in the list of active subscriptions.
- Tap "Cancel Subscription."
- Follow the prompts to confirm cancellation. Apple will display the date your access ends.
- Take a screenshot showing the cancellation confirmation, which displays the date your subscription ends.
For Google Play Store (Android):
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
- Tap your profile icon in the top right corner.
- Select "Manage subscriptions."
- Find and tap "Looread."
- Tap "Cancel subscription."
- Select the reason for cancellation (optional but helpful for your records).
- Confirm cancellation. Google Play will display the final access date.
- Take a screenshot of the cancellation confirmation.
Step 3: cancel directly through Looread if you were charged by the company
If your receipt shows "Looread" as the merchant (not Apple or Google), you must cancel through Looread's account settings or by contacting support directly.
- Open the Looread app or website and log into your account.
- Navigate to "Settings," "Account," "Membership," or "Manage Subscription."
- Look for a "Cancel Subscription," "End Membership," or "Stop Billing" button. Users have reported that this button is not always visible, so check all account tabs carefully.
- If you find a cancel button, click it, follow all prompts, and take a screenshot of the final cancellation confirmation.
- If you do not find a cancel button within 5 minutes, proceed to the email method below.
- If no cancellation option appears in the app, send a written cancellation request by email.
Step 4: send a formal cancellation email to Looread support
This email creates a legal record of your cancellation request and protects you if Looread claims it received no cancellation notice.
- Compose a new email to [email protected] with the subject line "Request for Subscription Cancellation."
- Include the following information in the body:
- Your full name as it appears on your Looread account.
- The email address associated with your Looread account.
- The date you started your subscription.
- The exact amount charged per week or month in RM.
- The date of your most recent charge.
- A clear statement: "I hereby request immediate cancellation of my Looread subscription effective today. Please confirm cancellation in writing and confirm the date all future charges will cease."
- Send the email from the same email address linked to your Looread account.
- Save a copy of this email in a folder labelled "Looread Cancellation" for your records.
- Wait 3 business days for a response. If Looread does not respond, send a follow-up email with the same information and note that this is your second request.
Step 5: verify cancellation has taken effect
- Wait until the date Looread or the app store specified as your final access date.
- Check your bank or credit card statement 5 days after that date to confirm no further charges appear.
- If a charge appears after the confirmed cancellation date, contact your bank or card issuer immediately and dispute the charge as unauthorized, citing your cancellation confirmation.
- Simultaneously send a second formal email to Looread documenting the unauthorized charge and demanding a refund within 14 days.
What to expect after you cancel
Cancellation is final and immediate: your access to Looread content will end on the date confirmed during cancellation, and no refund is typically issued for the current billing period unless you cancel within the cooling-off period or discover you were charged multiple times.
Access and data after cancellation
Once your subscription ends, you will lose access to premium reading content and any membership features. Looread does not typically delete your account, so you may be able to reactivate it later if you wish, but that reactivation will trigger a new subscription and fresh charges.
Consequently, if you wish to preserve any reading lists, bookmarks, or personal data, save or export that information before the cancellation date takes effect. Yafee recommends checking whether Looread offers a data export feature in your account settings.
Monitoring for unauthorized charges
Continue checking your bank statements for 60 days after cancellation to catch any erroneous charges. If an unauthorized charge appears, contact your bank within the dispute window (typically 60 days for most Malaysian banks) and provide evidence of your cancellation email and confirmation.
Simultaneously notify Looread in writing that you have disputed the charge with your bank. Document all communications. If your bank declines the dispute because Looread claims the charge was valid, escalate the matter to FOMCA, which has authority to investigate unfair billing practices.
Refund eligibility and how to claim
Refunds are available under specific circumstances, and you must act within statutory timeframes to protect your claim.
When you are entitled to a refund
You are entitled to a refund under the following circumstances:
- You cancel within 10 calendar days of first subscribing (cooling-off period under the Consumer Protection Act 1999).
- You were charged multiple times for a single billing period due to a system error.
- The service was not provided as described (for example, content was unavailable or the app malfunctioned for an extended period).
- Looread continues charging after you submitted a valid cancellation request.
How to request a refund from Looread
- Send a formal refund request by email to [email protected] with the subject "Refund Request for Subscription Charges."
- Include your account details, the specific charge(s) you are disputing, the reason for the refund claim, and supporting evidence (screenshots, receipts, cancellation confirmation).
- If claiming cooling-off period refund, state the date you subscribed and the date of this request (must be within 10 days).
- If claiming double-charging, provide both charge confirmations.
- If claiming service non-delivery, describe the issue and dates it occurred.
- Request a response within 14 days and specify a refund deadline of 14 days from Looread's acknowledgment of your claim.
- If Looread does not respond within 14 days, escalate to your bank or app store, which may issue a chargeback on your behalf.
Escalation if Looread refuses your refund
If Looread denies your refund or fails to respond within 14 days, file a complaint with FOMCA (Federation of Malaysian Consumers Associations) or KPDNHEP (Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living). Both bodies have authority to investigate unfair contract terms and unlawful billing practices. Yafee recommends keeping all correspondence as evidence when you file your complaint.
Pricing table and billing frequency
| Plan type | Cost (MYR) | Billing frequency | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free trial | RM 0 | One-time, limited duration | Available to new users |
| Unlimited Read membership | RM 70.75 (approx USD 14.99) | Weekly | Current recurring subscription |
Weekly billing means charges recur seven times per month, making Looread a high-frequency subscription. Verify your exact charge amount in your account or payment receipt before cancelling, because pricing may vary by region or subscription variant.
Common mistakes when cancelling Looread
Cancellation is straightforward if you follow the correct sequence, but most failed cancellations result from a single critical error: cancelling in the wrong location.
Cancelling in the wrong channel
If you subscribed through the App Store but cancel only within the Looread app, your app store subscription remains active and charges continue. Conversely, if you subscribed directly through Looread but cancel only through the app store, Looread's direct billing may continue independently. You must identify your actual billing source first, then cancel through that exact channel.
Failing to document the cancellation
Never assume cancellation is complete without written proof. If you cancel through the app, screenshot the confirmation. If you email Looread, save the sent message and all replies. If you cancel through the app store, screenshot the final cancellation screen. This documentation is your only defence if charges continue or Looread claims no cancellation was received.
Not checking your statement after cancellation
Many users assume cancellation is final and never check their statement again, then discover charges months later. Set a calendar reminder to check your bank statement 5 days after your confirmed cancellation date, and repeat this check for 60 days. Early detection of unauthorized charges gives you a wider dispute window with your bank.
Checklist for cancelling Looread
Print or save this checklist and work through it systematically to ensure your cancellation is complete and documented.
- Locate your most recent Looread receipt and identify the merchant name (Looread, Apple, Google Play, etc.).
- Screenshot your current subscription plan, cost, and next billing date from your account.
- Open the app and check for a "Cancel," "End Membership," or "Manage Subscription" button in settings.
- If no in-app cancellation option is visible, proceed directly to email.
- Send a formal cancellation email to [email protected] with all required account details.
- If you subscribed via Apple App Store, cancel through Settings > Subscriptions > Looread > Cancel.
- If you subscribed via Google Play, cancel through Play Store > Subscriptions > Looread > Cancel.
- Take screenshots of all cancellation confirmations from every channel used.
- Note the final access date specified in each cancellation confirmation.
- Wait 5 days after the final access date, then check your bank statement for unauthorized charges.
- If charges continue, dispute them with your bank and send a refund demand to Looread.
- If Looread does not refund within 14 days, file a complaint with FOMCA or KPDNHEP.
When you should keep your Looread subscription
Cancellation is not always the right choice. Consider whether Looread genuinely adds value to your reading habits or whether you have simply stopped using it.
Reasons to keep your subscription
If you access Looread content regularly and the RM70.75 weekly cost fits your budget, the subscription delivers value. The service provides curated reading content that you actively consume, and you are comfortable with the weekly billing cycle. Furthermore, if you have discovered web novels or story collections through Looread that you would not access elsewhere, the service may justify its cost through entertainment value alone.
However, if you are paying but rarely or never open the app, if the weekly RM70.75 charge represents money you cannot easily afford, or if you have switched to competing reading platforms, cancellation is the correct financial decision. Yafee recommends being honest with yourself: would you miss Looread if it disappeared tomorrow? If the answer is no, cancel immediately.
Contact information and escalation routes
The following contact details allow you to reach Looread or, if necessary, escalate your complaint to Malaysian consumer protection authorities.

Malaysian consumer protection authorities
If Looread fails to respond to your cancellation or refund request within 14 days, or if you believe the company has engaged in unfair billing practices, escalate your complaint to the following bodies:

- Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (KPDNHEP): Enforces the Consumer Protection Act 1999 and can investigate businesses for non-compliance with transparency and refund obligations. Submit a formal complaint if FOMCA does not resolve your case.
- Your bank or card issuer: Dispute any unauthorized charges directly with your financial institution. Provide screenshots of your cancellation confirmation and evidence of continued charging.
- Your app store (Apple or Google): If charges continue after you cancelled through the app store, report the issue to Apple or Google directly. Both platforms have authority to investigate merchant billing disputes and issue chargebacks.
