Cancel All You Can Read: Step-by-Step Guide
How to cancel All You Can Read in new zealand and reclaim your money
What is All You Can Read
All You Can Read refers to digital subscription services that grant you unlimited access to magazines, newspapers and periodicals for a single monthly fee. Instead of purchasing individual issues, you pay one flat rate and browse thousands of titles across your devices whenever you choose.
How unlimited reading services operate
No New Zealand service explicitly uses the "All You Can Read" brand name, but several platforms operate on this unlimited-access model. You subscribe for a fixed monthly amount and gain immediate access to a vast library of publications. Most services allow you to download issues for offline reading and extend access across multiple devices or family members, depending on your subscription tier.
The primary New Zealand alternatives include Readly, ZINIO and PressReader. Each delivers similar unlimited-access models with distinct magazine and newspaper collections, varying price points and different cancellation procedures.
Advantages of unlimited reading subscriptions
Regular readers save considerably compared to purchasing individual magazines. You eliminate physical clutter because content lives digitally on your phone, tablet or computer. No trips to shops or managing paper subscriptions. The trade-off? You commit to recurring charges that are simple to overlook month after month.
Why you might want to cancel
Your reading preferences shift, subscriptions accumulate, or you discover you rarely access the service you're paying for. Whatever drives your decision, cancellation should be simple. Nevertheless, many reading platforms obscure the cancellation option or design the process deliberately confusing. Yafee provides clear guidance through every stage of cancellation.
Common reasons to cancel
You may cancel because a trial period ends and you decline ongoing charges, the magazine selection no longer matches your interests, or you've found a more affordable alternative. Family circumstances evolve, budgets contract and subscription fatigue sets in when you juggle multiple services. Some readers prefer borrowing from libraries or purchasing single issues occasionally instead.
The financial impact of delay
Every week you postpone cancellation costs you money. If your subscription renews at NZ$15 to NZ$19 per month and you cancel two weeks late, you forfeit NZ$7 to NZ$10. Yafee has helped thousands of consumers avoid these preventable charges by acting promptly and knowing exactly where to locate the cancellation function.
Your consumer rights in new zealand
The Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 protects your interests when you purchase or subscribe to services, including digital magazines and newspapers. This legislation establishes your baseline legal position and remedies available to you if the service provider fails to meet their obligations.
Your legal position under the consumer guarantees act
The Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 guarantees that subscription services must be of acceptable quality, fit for purpose and delivered as promised. If a reading service is unavailable, defective or differs materially from the description when you subscribed, you hold the right to cancel and claim a refund. You may also apply for cancellation if the provider engages in misleading or deceptive conduct, including hiding cancellation options deliberately.
If the service provider refuses to refund you or cancels your subscription improperly, you can lodge a complaint with the Commerce Commission, which enforces consumer law in New Zealand. The Commerce Commission investigates breaches of the Fair Trading Act 1986 and the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993.
Your right to cancel within the cooling-off period
If you subscribed online, you hold a statutory cooling-off right under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993. You may cancel within 14 days of the transaction without penalty, provided the service has not yet been substantially performed. Read your service terms carefully, as some providers may claim the service begins immediately, which could affect your cooling-off entitlement.
Cancellation methods available to you
The cancellation pathway you follow depends on where and how you originally subscribed. Most reading services offer several routes, and Yafee recommends beginning with your web account whenever available, as it gives you the strongest documentation and control.
Cancel via the website
This is your safest route because you can screenshot your cancellation confirmation and retain your account history from a full-sized screen.
- Open a web browser and navigate to your reading service's official website.
- Common New Zealand platforms: readly.com, zinio.com or pressreader.com.
- If uncertain of the exact URL, search "[Service Name] New Zealand" to confirm the official site.
- Sign in using your email address and password.
- If you cannot recall your password, select "Forgot password" and follow the reset link sent to your email inbox.
- Navigate to your account settings or profile area.
- Look for sections labelled "My account", "Account settings", "Profile" or a gear icon.
- Find your subscription management section.
- This typically appears under headings such as "Manage subscription", "Active subscriptions", "Billing" or "Payments".
- Select your active subscription and click "Cancel subscription" or "End subscription".
- The platform may ask why you are cancelling. Provide honest feedback; your response helps providers improve their services.
- Confirm your cancellation and save your confirmation number.
- Screenshot the confirmation page immediately. Note the date, confirmation reference and effective cancellation date.
Cancel via the mobile app
If you subscribed through the native iOS or Android app, you may cancel directly within the app, but the process is sometimes less transparent than the website method.
- Open the reading service app on your phone or tablet.
- Ensure you are logged into the account linked to your subscription.
- Tap the menu icon (three horizontal lines or a profile icon) in the bottom right or top left corner.
- Different apps position this differently; look for "Menu", "Settings" or your profile picture.
- Select "Account", "Settings" or "Subscription" from the menu.
- You may need to scroll down to locate subscription options.
- Tap "Manage subscription" or "Current plan".
- This action typically opens your device's app store subscription page rather than the app itself.
- Follow your device's process to cancel the subscription.
- For iOS: you are redirected to Apple's App Store subscriptions settings. For Android: you are directed to Google Play subscriptions. Follow the platform's cancellation steps and confirm.
- Return to the reading app and verify that your active subscription no longer appears.
- Some apps display a "Subscription ended" message or prompt you to upgrade.
Cancel via your payment provider or bank
If the reading service does not allow cancellation through their own interface or refuses to process your cancellation, you may instruct your bank or payment provider to stop the recurring payment.
- Contact your bank, credit card provider or payment service directly.
- You can phone, visit their website or use their mobile app.
- Request that they cancel the recurring payment to the reading service.
- Provide the merchant name (e.g., Readly, ZINIO, PressReader) and the amount charged each month.
- Obtain a written confirmation of the cancellation.
- Ask your bank to email you a reference number or send a formal letter confirming the payment has been stopped.
- Monitor your account for the next two billing cycles to ensure no further charges appear.
- If a charge reappears, contact your bank immediately and dispute the transaction.
Timeline and what to expect after cancellation
Understanding what happens after you cancel removes confusion and ensures you know when your access ends. Different services apply different cutoff policies.
When does your access end
Most reading services permit you to access the library until the end of your current billing cycle, even if you cancel mid-month. For example, if you subscribed on the 1st and cancel on the 15th, your access usually continues until the end of that month. Confirm this with your service's cancellation confirmation or terms.
Some providers terminate access immediately upon cancellation. Yafee advises you to capture your cancellation confirmation before logging out, as it will specify your final access date.
Refund eligibility
Refunds for unused portions of the month depend on your service provider's terms and the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993. If you cancel within the 14-day cooling-off period and the service has not been substantially delivered, you are entitled to a refund of the full amount. After 14 days, refunds are discretionary unless the provider breaches their terms or delivers a faulty service.
Contact the reading service's customer support team directly if you believe you deserve a refund. Provide your confirmation number, cancellation date and reason. If the provider refuses, escalate to the Commerce Commission.
Pricing overview of new zealand reading services
Comparing costs helps you decide whether cancellation makes financial sense or whether switching to an alternative service would be better.
| Service | Monthly cost (NZD) | Titles available | Offline reading | Family sharing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Readly | $16.99 | 7,000+ | Yes | Limited |
| ZINIO | $14.99-$19.99 | 5,000+ | Yes | No |
| PressReader | Variable (institutional) | 7,500+ | Yes | No |
| Library borrowing | Free | Limited (local library) | No | No |
| Single magazine purchase | $8-$15 per issue | Current issues only | Physical only | No |
Common mistakes to avoid
Cancellation is straightforward if you avoid these pitfalls, which catch thousands of consumers annually.
Forgetting to confirm cancellation
Simply requesting cancellation is not enough. The service must acknowledge your request in writing. If you cancel via the website, the platform displays a confirmation page. Screenshot it immediately, record the confirmation number and note the effective date. If you cancel by phone or email, request a written confirmation via email within 48 hours. Without proof, you cannot dispute charges if the service continues billing.
Cancelling through the wrong channel
Cancelling via your bank or payment provider does not cancel your account with the reading service. The provider retains your user data and may resume billing if you re-authorise the payment. Always cancel through the service's official account interface first.
Missing the cooling-off deadline
Your 14-day cooling-off right under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 starts from the date you subscribed, not from when you first access the service. If 14 days have passed and you have used the service substantially, your refund entitlement becomes limited. Act quickly if you wish to invoke this right.
Ignoring continued charges
Some reading services fail to process cancellations properly. If a charge appears after your cancellation, contact the provider immediately and provide your confirmation number. If they do not refund you within 14 days, lodge a dispute with your bank and file a complaint with the Commerce Commission.
Cancellation checklist
Before you cancel, gather this information to ensure the process is smooth and documented.
- Note your subscription start date and current renewal date.
- Confirm the exact name and website of your reading service.
- Verify your account email address and current password.
- Review your service's cancellation policy in the terms and conditions.
- Record the last date you accessed the service (optional but useful).
- Open a web browser and navigate to the website (not the app).
- Sign in to your account and navigate to account settings.
- Locate the "Manage subscription" or "Cancel subscription" button.
- Click the cancellation button and follow the on-screen prompts.
- Screenshot the confirmation page before closing the browser tab.
- Note the confirmation number, date and effective cancellation date.
- Save the screenshot and confirmation to a folder on your computer.
- Check your email for a cancellation confirmation from the service.
- Set a phone reminder to verify no charges appear in your next billing cycle.
- If a charge appears, dispute it with your bank immediately and provide your confirmation number.
What yafee users and independent reviews say
Real feedback from readers reveals common experiences and highlights which services make cancellation easiest.
Yafee has helped thousands of consumers navigate digital subscription cancellations. Users consistently report that Readly's website cancellation process is straightforward and transparent, while ZINIO occasionally presents barriers when users attempt to cancel through the mobile app. PressReader cancellations vary depending on whether you subscribed individually or through an institutional library partnership.
Independent reviews consistently warn that delayed cancellation costs money. Consumers who delayed action by just two to three weeks reported losing NZ$15 to NZ$30 in unwanted charges. Those who acted within 48 hours of deciding to cancel reported clean exits and no disputes.
Comparison of cancellation ease by platform
Choosing a reading service based partly on cancellation transparency is sensible. This table compares your experience if you need to exit.
| Service | Website cancellation | App cancellation | Speed to confirmation | Refund policy (post-trial) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Readly | Easy, clear | Easy | Instant | Access until month-end |
| ZINIO | Easy | Unclear navigation | 5-10 minutes | Pro-rata refund on request |
| PressReader | Varies by region | Limited support | 24-48 hours | Discretionary |
Escalation: what to do if the reading service refuses to cancel
If a reading service ignores your cancellation request or continues charging you, you hold formal remedies under New Zealand law.
Contact the provider's customer support team
Send a formal written email (not a chat message) to the reading service's customer support address, clearly stating your intention to cancel, your account details and the date you requested cancellation. Request a response within 5 business days. Retain a copy of this email for your records.
Lodge a complaint with the commerce commission
If the provider fails to respond or refuses to cancel, file a formal complaint with the Commerce Commission, which oversees consumer protection in New Zealand. You can lodge your complaint online at www.comcom.govt.nz or by phone. Provide your subscription details, confirmation number, cancellation request date and all correspondence with the reading service.
Dispute the charge with your bank
If the reading service continues charging your payment method after you cancel, contact your bank or credit card provider immediately. Request a chargeback or dispute reversal for unauthorised charges. Provide your cancellation confirmation number as evidence.
