How to cancel Myfastvpn and avoid hidden renewal charges in the philippines
Understanding Myfastvpn and why you might want to cancel
Myfastvpn is a subscription-based virtual private network service that encrypts your internet traffic, masks your IP address, and grants access to a global server network. If you subscribed in the Philippines, you pay in Philippine pesos (PHP) with plans ranging from ₱299 per month to ₱3,564 for a 36-month commitment. The service advertises unlimited bandwidth, up to five simultaneous device connections, and access to 3,400+ server locations worldwide.
What Myfastvpn actually provides
In practice, Myfastvpn enables secure browsing in public Wi-Fi environments such as cafes, airport lounges, and shopping malls. The service also allows you to switch your virtual location for streaming compatibility and regional content access. The longer subscription plans offer lower monthly effective pricing but lock you into automatic renewal cycles unless you actively cancel before the renewal date arrives.
The critical issue: Myfastvpn's publicly available terms of service lack transparent disclosure of auto-renewal dates, refund eligibility criteria, free trial conversion rules, and data handling procedures after cancellation. This opacity creates genuine frustration for Philippine consumers. At Yafee, we guide you through this murky process with clear, legal-backed cancellation procedures.
Who should cancel Myfastvpn
You should cancel if you subscribed to a long-term plan but no longer use the VPN regularly, found a cheaper alternative, or experienced poor server speeds and connection reliability. You should also cancel if Myfastvpn's customer support fails to meet your expectations. The company operates without a published phone support line, live chat function, or clearly listed support email address, which makes problem resolution unnecessarily difficult.
Many Filipino users report frustration with minimal support responsiveness and deliberately obscured cancellation procedures. Yafee has helped thousands of consumers navigate exactly this scenario by providing straightforward, enforceable cancellation steps.
Your consumer rights when cancelling Myfastvpn in the philippines
The Consumer Act of the Philippines, formally titled Republic Act No. 7394, establishes your legal rights as a subscriber to digital services.
What republic act 7394 means for your Myfastvpn subscription
Under the Consumer Act, merchants operating in the Philippines must clearly disclose all contract terms, renewal policies, and cancellation procedures before you pay. Myfastvpn's failure to spell out these details on its terms page likely violates your statutory rights. The law requires that you receive truthful, accurate information about billing cycles, auto-renewal clauses, and cancellation methods.
Republic Act 7394 also grants you a 15-day cooling-off period for purchases made online or through distance selling. If you subscribed to Myfastvpn and changed your mind within 15 days of purchase, you have the legal right to request a full refund, provided you did not consume excessive amounts of the service. Save screenshots of your purchase date, subscription confirmation email, and any cancellation request you send as evidence of your claim.
Your legal position
You hold the legal advantage. If Myfastvpn charged you without clear consent, continued billing after you requested cancellation, or refused a refund that Republic Act 7394 entitles you to receive, you can escalate your complaint to a government enforcement body. The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) exists specifically to resolve exactly these disputes between consumers and merchants.
Where to escalate if Myfastvpn refuses to cancel or refund
If Myfastvpn ignores your cancellation request or denies a refund you believe you legally deserve, file a formal complaint with the Department of Trade and Industry through its online portal at www.dti.gov.ph or visit your nearest local DTI office. The DTI has enforcement power to compel companies to honour refund requests and cancel improperly renewed subscriptions.
Simultaneously, dispute the charges with your payment provider. If you paid by credit card, contact your card issuer and report the transaction as unauthorised. If you paid by GCash or Maya, report the transaction through their respective apps and provide screenshots of your cancellation request and Myfastvpn's non-response. Combined pressure from both the DTI and your bank typically produces results faster than either channel alone.
How to cancel Myfastvpn step by step
Your cancellation path depends on whether you subscribed directly through Myfastvpn's website or through a third-party reseller.
Cancellation method one: direct subscription through myfastvpn's website
Follow these steps if you signed up at Myfastvpn's official domain:
- Log into your Myfastvpn account using your registered email and password.
- Open your browser and navigate to the Myfastvpn login page.
- Enter your email address and password exactly as you registered them.
- Navigate to your account settings or subscription management section.
- Look for a menu option labeled "Account", "Subscription", "Billing", or "Settings".
- Click the relevant link to access your subscription details.
- Locate the cancellation or subscription management option.
- Search for buttons or links with text such as "Cancel Subscription", "Manage Plan", or "Billing Details".
- If the cancellation link is not immediately visible, scroll to the bottom of the page or check under "Advanced Settings".
- Initiate the cancellation process by clicking the cancellation button.
- The system will likely ask you to confirm your choice and may present exit survey questions.
- Complete the survey if prompted; your feedback may help the company improve.
- Confirm your cancellation by accepting the final prompt.
- The system will display a confirmation message or send a confirmation email within 24 hours.
- Save this confirmation email as proof of your cancellation request.
- Verify that your subscription status changes to "Cancelled" or "Pending Cancellation" within 48 hours.
- Log back into your account and check your subscription status.
- If the status does not update, contact support by email with your cancellation confirmation number.
Cancellation method two: subscription through a third-party reseller or app store
If you subscribed to Myfastvpn through the Google Play Store, Apple App Store, or another reseller, you must cancel through that platform rather than through Myfastvpn's website directly.
- Open the app store or platform through which you originally subscribed.
- This might be Google Play Store, Apple App Store, Amazon Appstore, or another digital marketplace.
- Navigate to your subscriptions or account management section.
- In Google Play Store, tap "Account" then "Payments and subscriptions" then "Subscriptions".
- In Apple App Store, tap "Account" then "Subscriptions".
- In Amazon Appstore, tap "Your Account" then "Subscriptions".
- Find the Myfastvpn subscription in your active subscriptions list.
- Scroll through the list until you see "Myfastvpn" or the specific plan name you purchased.
- Click on the Myfastvpn subscription entry to view its details.
- The screen will display your renewal date, next billing amount, and cancellation options.
- Select the "Cancel Subscription" or "Unsubscribe" option.
- Confirm your cancellation choice when the app store prompts you to do so.
- The app store will send you a confirmation email and will stop billing immediately or at your next renewal date, depending on the plan terms.
- Verify the cancellation by checking your subscription list again within 24 hours.
- The Myfastvpn subscription should no longer appear in your active subscriptions.
- If it still appears, repeat step five or contact the app store's support team.
Cancellation method three: email cancellation request if web cancellation fails
If you cannot access the web cancellation function or the app store cancellation fails, submit a written cancellation request by email. This creates a documented record under Philippine consumer law.
- Compose a cancellation email to Myfastvpn's support contact address.
- Include essential information in your email.
- State your full name exactly as it appears in your account.
- Provide your registered email address associated with the Myfastvpn account.
- Include your subscription plan name or product ID if you have it.
- State your cancellation request clearly: "I request immediate cancellation of my Myfastvpn subscription effective today's date."
- Mention Republic Act 7394 and your consumer rights under Philippine law if Myfastvpn has ignored previous cancellation attempts.
- Attach proof of your original purchase.
- Include a screenshot of your order confirmation email or invoice.
- Include a screenshot of your account login page showing your active subscription.
- Send the email and retain a copy for your records.
- Use certified email or a service that provides a read receipt (Gmail has a "Request read receipt" feature).
- Save the email in a folder labeled "Myfastvpn Cancellation" for future reference.
- Wait seven business days for a response.
- Myfastvpn should acknowledge receipt within 48 hours and process the cancellation within seven days under Republic Act 7394's fair dealing requirements.
- If no response arrives within seven days, escalate immediately to the DTI.
- File your DTI complaint with a copy of your email and the lack of response as evidence.

| 36-month plan |

36 months (auto-renews) |
₱3,564 |

If you cancel within the 15-day cooling-off period stipulated by Republic Act 7394, you are entitled to a full refund of your subscription fee, minus any service you actively consumed. If you cancel after 15 days, your refund eligibility depends on Myfastvpn's internal refund policy, which the company has not clearly published. Document the refund policy text you were shown at purchase, as this becomes your contract with the company.
What happens after you cancel Myfastvpn
Knowing what occurs after cancellation helps you plan your next privacy or security strategy without interruption.
Access and service termination timeline
Once Myfastvpn processes your cancellation, access to the VPN terminates according to your plan type. If you subscribed to a monthly plan, your access ends at the next renewal date (typically 30 days after your original purchase). If you subscribed to an annual or 36-month plan, your access continues until that plan's full expiration date unless Myfastvpn terminates you immediately for breach of terms.
Log into your account daily for the first week after cancellation to verify that Myfastvpn is not attempting to bill you again. If your account shows a pending charge on your next renewal date, contact your bank immediately to dispute the charge as unauthorised.
Data deletion and privacy after cancellation
Philippine data protection law requires that Myfastvpn delete or anonymise your personal data within a reasonable timeframe after service termination. The company is required to comply with the Data Privacy Act of 2012 (Republic Act No. 10173). You have the right to request that Myfastvpn confirm deletion of your subscription history, browsing logs, and payment information.
Send a written data deletion request by email to Myfastvpn's support address within 30 days of your cancellation becoming effective. Request written confirmation that your personal data has been deleted. If the company does not respond within 30 days, you can escalate this to the National Privacy Commission (NPC) at www.privacy.gov.ph.
Common cancellation mistakes to avoid
You are not alone if cancellation feels unnecessarily complicated. Here are the traps that catch most users and how to sidestep them.
Mistake one: assuming cancellation happens automatically after you stop using the service
Stopping app use or disconnecting the VPN does not cancel your subscription. Myfastvpn will continue to charge your payment method every renewal cycle until you actively submit a cancellation request through the methods described above. Many Filipino users discover surprise charges months later because they assumed inactivity ended the subscription automatically. It does not. You must explicitly cancel.
Mistake two: deleting the Myfastvpn app without cancelling the subscription
Removing the app from your device does not cancel your subscription or stop billing. The subscription exists independent of the app installation. Delete the app only after you have received a cancellation confirmation email from Myfastvpn or the app store through which you subscribed.
Mistake three: ignoring cancellation confirmation emails
When Myfastvpn or your app store sends a cancellation confirmation email, save it immediately to a folder on your computer and to your phone. This email is your legal proof that you requested cancellation on a specific date. If Myfastvpn bills you again after confirming cancellation, this email is your evidence that the company violated its own process.
Mistake four: not checking your bank or payment app for unexpected charges within seven days of cancellation
Verify that Myfastvpn does not attempt to charge you within one week of your cancellation becoming effective. Open your bank app, credit card statement, GCash history, or Maya history and search for any Myfastvpn charge. If you see a charge after cancellation, dispute it immediately with your payment provider and file a DTI complaint simultaneously.
Mistake five: cancelling during your subscription's billing cycle and expecting immediate prorated refund
If you cancel mid-month, Myfastvpn will typically allow your service to continue until your next renewal date rather than refunding the unused portion. Some companies do provide prorated refunds, but Myfastvpn does not clearly state this in its terms. Always cancel at least three days before your renewal date to avoid an additional charge and to preserve your refund claim under the 15-day cooling-off period if applicable.
Refund process and timeline
Understanding how and when Myfastvpn processes refunds prevents confusion and sets realistic expectations.
Refund eligibility criteria
You qualify for a refund under the following conditions: you cancelled within 15 days of your original purchase date (Republic Act 7394 cooling-off period); you can prove you requested cancellation in writing (email) and Myfastvpn confirmed it; or you can demonstrate that Myfastvpn continued billing after you submitted a valid cancellation request.
You do not qualify for a refund if you used the service for more than 15 days and then cancelled outside the cooling-off period, unless Myfastvpn's published refund policy explicitly guarantees pro-rata refunds for early cancellation (which it does not, based on publicly available terms).
Refund processing timeline
If you qualify for a refund, Myfastvpn should initiate the refund within 30 days of processing your cancellation. The actual funds return to your original payment method within 5 to 10 business days after Myfastvpn issues the refund (banks and payment processors handle the final credit). If 40 days pass without a refund hitting your account, follow up with Myfastvpn by email and simultaneously dispute the charge with your payment provider.
Refund method
Myfastvpn refunds to the payment method you used to purchase the subscription. If you paid by credit card, the refund posts to that card account. If you paid by GCash or Maya, the refund returns to that wallet. You cannot request a refund in a different payment method or as a cash transfer.
Comparing Myfastvpn to alternative VPN services in the philippines
If you are cancelling Myfastvpn because of poor service or pricing, consider comparing it to other VPN providers operating legally in the Philippines.

If customer support quality is your primary concern, ExpressVPN and NordVPN offer 24/7 live chat support in English, whereas Myfastvpn does not. If refund policy matters most, look for services offering 30-day money-back guarantees rather than the 15-day cooling-off period you receive with Myfastvpn under Philippine law.
Your cancellation checklist
Use this checklist to ensure you have completed every step necessary to cancel Myfastvpn and protect your refund claim.
Escalation to the department of trade and industry
If Myfastvpn fails to honour your cancellation request or refuses a refund you legally deserve, escalate your case to the DTI, which has statutory authority to enforce consumer rights under Republic Act 7394.
How to file a DTI complaint
Visit the DTI online portal at www.dti.gov.ph and select "Complaint" from the main menu. Alternatively, visit your nearest DTI Regional Office or Consumer Complaint Desk in person. Complete the complaint form and provide the following documentation:
- Your cancellation request email(s) to Myfastvpn support.
- Myfastvpn's response (or evidence of non-response, if applicable).
- Your subscription confirmation email and original purchase receipt.
- Screenshots of your account showing the subscription and any attempted charges after cancellation.
- A bank or payment processor statement showing the charges and any refund (or lack thereof).
- This cancellation guide and relevant sections of Republic Act 7394 as supporting evidence.
The DTI will investigate within 30 to 45 days and will issue a resolution letter. If the DTI finds in your favour, Myfastvpn must comply or face penalties and public sanctions.
Summary and next steps
Cancelling Myfastvpn requires you to take explicit action through your account settings, app store, or written email request. You have legal protections under the Consumer Act of the Philippines (Republic Act 7394), which grants you a 15-day cooling-off period, transparency requirements, and enforcement access through the DTI. Save every confirmation email, verify that charges stop within seven days, and escalate immediately if the company refuses to respond.
