How to cancel Turbo VPN in malaysia and avoid unwanted auto-renewal charges
What is Turbo VPN and why malaysians subscribe to it
Turbo VPN is a freemium virtual private network application available through its official website, Apple App Store, and Google Play Store. Most Malaysians download the free version first, then upgrade to Premium when they need faster speeds, access to all global servers, and unlimited bandwidth.
The critical detail is that every Premium plan renews automatically. Turbo VPN's subscription agreement states that all paid plans renew at the end of each billing cycle, and you may be charged up to 24 hours before the new period begins, depending on whether you subscribed via the official website, Apple, or Google. This automatic renewal is the reason many users contact support after noticing unexpected charges on their payment method.
Premium plans and malaysia pricing
Turbo VPN Premium pricing in Malaysia ranges from RM54.00 per month to RM383.30 for a 24-month commitment. The service includes access to all VPN servers, high-speed connections, and 24/7 customer support. A 30-day money-back guarantee applies only to first-time purchasers on their initial purchase; this does not extend to auto-renewal charges in subsequent billing cycles.

How subscription cancellation works across platforms
The cancellation process differs significantly depending on where you purchased your subscription. If you subscribed on Turbo VPN's official website, you must contact their live chat support. If you subscribed via Apple App Store or Google Play Store, you must cancel through those platforms respectively. Attempting to cancel through the wrong channel will delay your request and may result in an unwanted renewal charge.
Your consumer rights under malaysia law
Your right to cancel a subscription is protected under the Consumer Protection Act 1999 (Act 599), which governs unfair contract terms and protects consumers against deceptive business practices in Malaysia. This legislation requires all service providers to disclose auto-renewal terms clearly before purchase and to provide straightforward cancellation mechanisms.
Furthermore, the Consumer Protection Act 1999 mandates that service providers must provide you with a simple cancellation method that is accessible at no additional cost. If Turbo VPN makes cancellation deliberately difficult or charges you without explicit, ongoing consent, you have grounds to lodge a complaint with the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs (MDTCA), which enforces consumer protection in Malaysia.
Your legal position when cancelling
You have the right to cancel your Turbo VPN subscription at any time before the next billing cycle. The Consumer Protection Act 1999 does not entitle you to a refund for services already used unless Turbo VPN's own terms offer one (which they do for first-time purchasers only, within 30 days). However, you must not be charged for future billing periods once you have submitted a valid cancellation request. If Turbo VPN continues to charge you after you have cancelled, you may escalate the matter to the MDTCA or lodge a complaint through your bank or payment provider for an unauthorised charge.
How to cancel Turbo VPN on the official website
If you purchased your subscription directly from Turbo VPN's website using a credit card, debit card, or online payment method, you must initiate cancellation through their 24/7 live chat support.
Gather your subscription details before contacting support
Turbo VPN support will ask you to verify your account and provide proof of purchase. Collect these documents now to speed up the cancellation process.
- Open your email and locate the original Turbo VPN receipt or payment confirmation.
- Note the email address associated with your Turbo VPN account.
- Screenshot your current subscription plan, showing the plan name and next renewal date.
- Identify the payment method (credit card, debit card, or e-wallet) used for the subscription.
- Set a calendar reminder to cancel at least 3 working days before the next billing date.
Start a live chat session with Turbo VPN support
Visit the Turbo VPN support centre at support.turbovpn.com and select the live chat option. Live chat is available 24 hours daily, 7 days per week. Wait for an agent to respond; response times typically range from 5 to 15 minutes during business hours.
Submit your cancellation request and receipt
When the support agent responds, state clearly: "I want to cancel my Turbo VPN Premium subscription and disable auto-renewal." Provide the agent with the following information:
- Your registered email address on the Turbo VPN account
- A screenshot of your current plan and renewal date
- A copy of your original payment receipt or transaction ID
- The specific reason for cancellation (optional, but helps clarify your intent)
The agent will acknowledge your request and confirm the exact date your subscription will terminate. Ask the agent to provide a written confirmation in the chat window and request that you receive a confirmation email to your registered address.
Confirm cancellation in writing
Do not close the chat session until the agent has confirmed your cancellation date. Screenshot the entire conversation or request that the agent email you a cancellation confirmation. This written record protects you if Turbo VPN charges you again by mistake; you will have evidence that you cancelled within the required 3-working-day window.
Verify the cancellation took effect
Wait 48 hours after your cancellation request. Log in to your Turbo VPN account and check your subscription status. It should display "Cancelled" or "No active subscription." If your account still shows an active plan, contact support immediately and reference your cancellation chat transcript.
How to cancel Turbo VPN on apple app store
If you subscribed to Turbo VPN Premium through the Apple App Store on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac, you must cancel through Apple's subscription management system, not through Turbo VPN support.
Open the settings app on your iOS device
Unlock your iPhone or iPad. Locate and tap the Settings app (the grey icon with gears).
Navigate to your apple ID and subscriptions
Scroll to the top of Settings and tap your name. Select "Subscriptions" from the menu. You will see a list of all active subscriptions linked to your Apple ID account.
Select Turbo VPN from your subscription list
Find "Turbo VPN" in the subscriptions list and tap it. The subscription details page will open, showing your current plan, renewal date, and price.
Tap "Cancel subscription" and confirm
Press the "Cancel Subscription" button. Apple will display a confirmation screen asking whether you want to cancel before your next billing date. Tap "Confirm" to proceed. Apple will send you a cancellation confirmation email to your registered Apple ID email address within a few minutes.
Verify cancellation on apple's system
Return to the Subscriptions menu in Settings and find Turbo VPN. The status should now display "Expires on [date]" or "Cancelled" rather than "Renews on [date]." You will retain access to Turbo VPN Premium until the stated expiration date; after that, your subscription will terminate automatically and you will not be charged again.
How to cancel Turbo VPN on google play store
If you subscribed to Turbo VPN Premium through the Google Play Store on an Android phone or tablet, you must cancel through Google's subscription management system.
Open the google play store app on your android device
Tap the Google Play Store icon on your home screen or in your app drawer. Ensure you are logged into the Google account that is associated with the Turbo VPN subscription.
Access your account menu and subscriptions
Tap your profile picture or initial in the top-right corner of the Google Play Store. Select "Payments and subscriptions" and then tap "Subscriptions."
Locate and select Turbo VPN
Scroll through the list of active subscriptions and tap "Turbo VPN." The subscription details page will display your plan name, current price, and next billing date.
Tap "Cancel subscription" and confirm your choice
Press the "Cancel subscription" button. Google will present a confirmation prompt asking you to confirm the cancellation. Tap "Yes, cancel" to proceed. Google will send you a cancellation email confirmation to your registered Google account email address.
Check your subscription status has updated
Return to the Google Play Store Subscriptions page. Turbo VPN should now display "Expires on [date]" instead of "Renews on [date]." You retain access to Premium features until the expiration date shown. After that date, your subscription will terminate and no further charges will be applied.
Understanding Turbo VPN's refund policy
Turbo VPN offers a 30-day money-back guarantee only for new Premium subscribers on their first purchase. This refund does not apply to auto-renewal charges or to users who have already used the service beyond the 30-day window. Consequently, if you cancel your subscription after 30 days of your initial purchase, you will not receive a refund for that billing cycle.
If you are within the 30-day refund window and wish to request a refund rather than cancellation, contact Turbo VPN support live chat and state explicitly that you want a refund. Provide your original receipt and request that the charge be reversed to your payment method. Turbo VPN support will process the refund, which typically appears on your credit card or bank account within 5 to 10 business days.
For cancellations after the 30-day period, you will not receive a refund, but you will stop incurring charges from the cancellation date forward. This is an important distinction: cancellation prevents future charges, but it does not recover past charges unless you are within the money-back guarantee period.
What happens after you cancel Turbo VPN
Once your cancellation takes effect on the scheduled date, your Turbo VPN Premium subscription will terminate automatically. You will lose access to all Premium features, including high-speed connections, all global servers, and priority customer support.
Timing of service termination
You retain full access to Premium features until the end of your current billing cycle or until the date stated in the cancellation confirmation, whichever comes later. For example, if you cancel on 15 March and your next billing date is 20 April, you can use Turbo VPN Premium until 20 April. At that date, your subscription expires and you will be downgraded to the free version automatically.
What you can do with a free account
After cancellation, you retain access to Turbo VPN's free tier, which includes limited servers, lower speeds, and data restrictions. You can continue to use the free version indefinitely at no cost. If you decide to upgrade to Premium again later, you can do so at any time through the same platform (website, App Store, or Google Play).
Checking your payment method after cancellation
Monitor your bank or credit card statement for 1 to 2 billing cycles after your cancellation date to confirm that no further charges appear. If you see a charge from Turbo VPN after your cancellation date, contact your bank immediately to report an unauthorised transaction and request a chargeback. Keep your cancellation confirmation email and chat transcript as evidence for your bank.
Common mistakes that delay or prevent successful cancellation
Most cancellation problems are preventable with the right approach. The good news is that Yafee has helped thousands of consumers cancel VPN subscriptions by avoiding these pitfalls.
Cancelling on the wrong platform
This is the most frequent mistake. If you subscribed via Apple App Store, cancelling through Turbo VPN support will not work. Similarly, if you subscribed on the official website, cancelling through Google Play will not affect your subscription. Always verify your original receipt to confirm the correct cancellation channel, then use only that channel.
Cancelling too close to the billing date
Turbo VPN's support policy requires cancellation at least 3 working days before your next renewal date. If you cancel on the day before renewal or on the renewal date itself, you will likely be charged, and you will then need to request a refund. Set a calendar reminder for 5 days before renewal to provide a buffer.
Not saving proof of cancellation
If you cancel via live chat and do not screenshot the conversation, you will have no written record if Turbo VPN charges you again or claims your cancellation never arrived. Always request a written confirmation email from support and save it in a secure folder.
Assuming free tier access means cancellation failed
Some users panic when they are downgraded to the free version and assume the cancellation did not work. In fact, downgrade to the free tier is the normal result of a successful cancellation. You will continue to see the app on your device; this is correct. The absence of future charges is what confirms your cancellation succeeded.
