How to cancel Anthem in singapore: your complete step-by-step guide
What Anthem is and why you might want to cancel
Anthem in Singapore encompasses several distinct service offerings: a boutique fitness studio with tiered membership plans, An Anthem (an-anthem.com), a made-to-order apparel brand specialising in custom clothing and accessories, and subscription services linked to fitness or lifestyle applications. Understanding which Anthem service you hold is your first step toward cancelling with confidence.
You may choose to cancel for legitimate reasons: a fitness membership no longer aligns with your schedule, a custom apparel order you no longer require, or a recurring subscription that no longer delivers value. Regardless of your motivation, Yafee exists to ensure you understand your exact cancellation procedure, your refund entitlements under Singapore consumer law, and the procedural traps many merchants use to discourage departing customers.
Scope of this guide
This guide covers cancelling An Anthem apparel orders, Anthem fitness studio memberships, and app-store subscriptions billed under the Anthem name. We also outline your consumer rights under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act and provide a clear escalation pathway if Anthem resists your cancellation or refund request.
Why cancellation clarity matters in singapore
Many Singapore merchants deliberately obscure their cancellation processes or hide contact details to discourage customer departures. Anthem's policies are more transparent than many competitors, yet you still risk losing refunds or remaining locked into unwanted charges if you miss a deadline or use an incorrect channel. Yafee has structured this guide to eliminate that risk entirely.
Anthem pricing and membership plans at a glance
Your cancellation timeline and refund eligibility depend directly on which Anthem plan you hold and how long you have been paying for it.

An Anthem apparel and made-to-order pricing
An Anthem does not publish fixed pricing because every order is bespoke. Custom apparel commissions typically range from SGD 50 to SGD 300 or more, depending on design complexity, material selection, and order quantity. Standard Singapore shipping costs SGD 8-15; international delivery incurs additional fees. Sale items are marked final and non-refundable at the point of purchase.
Your consumer rights under singapore law
Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act grants you statutory rights that override most merchant terms and conditions, including Anthem's stated policies.
Your legal position
Under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act, you have the right to cancel a distance contract (including online subscriptions and memberships) within 14 calendar days of purchase without penalty, provided you follow the merchant's stated cancellation procedure. For fitness memberships, the 14-day cooling-off period applies unless Anthem can prove you began using the service before the deadline. For made-to-order apparel, cancellation rights depend on whether production has commenced: if An Anthem has not yet begun manufacturing your custom order, you retain full cancellation rights; once production starts, you may only cancel if the order contains a defect or fails to match your specifications.
If Anthem refuses to honour your cancellation or withholds a refund you are entitled to, you may escalate your complaint to the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE). CASE can mediate disputes and, if necessary, refer your case to the Ministry of Trade and Industry for enforcement action. Yafee recommends documenting every communication you send to Anthem, including email receipts and delivery confirmations if you post a physical cancellation letter.
When you can cancel a fitness membership
You hold the unconditional right to cancel during your 14-day cooling-off period. After 14 days, your cancellation rights depend on your plan type. Rolling monthly plans (Unlimited Monthly, 4-Class Pack) permit cancellation on 7 days' written notice at any time. Prepaid blocks (3-month, 6-month, Annual) require longer notice: 30 days for the 3 and 6-month plans, 60 days for annual commitment. If you cancel outside your notice period, Anthem may retain your final month's fees or a pro-rata portion of your prepaid balance.
When you can cancel an apparel order
Production timelines are critical. You have the full 14-day cooling-off period to cancel an apparel order, but An Anthem typically begins manufacturing within 24 hours of purchase. Once production starts, your right to cancel is extinguished unless you can prove a material defect. Email An Anthem immediately upon placing your order if you have any doubt; their support team can confirm production status and lock in your cancellation window.
How to cancel Anthem fitness memberships: step-by-step methods
Cancellation procedures differ depending on whether you hold a rolling or prepaid membership, and whether you are within your 14-day cooling-off period or cancelling a longer-term plan.
Step 1: confirm your membership type and notice period
Retrieve your membership agreement from your email inbox or Anthem's online member portal. Identify which plan you hold (Unlimited Monthly, 4-Class Pack, 3-Month Prepaid, etc.) and note the exact notice period required for that plan type. Cross-reference the table above to confirm whether you must provide 7, 30, or 60 days' written notice.
Step 2: calculate your cancellation deadline
Written notice means Anthem must receive your cancellation request in written form-email or registered mail both satisfy this requirement. Count forward from your notice submission date: if you must provide 7 days' notice and you email Anthem on 15 March, your membership ends on 22 March (7 days later). If your membership renews on the 1st of each month and you are submitting notice mid-month, clarify with Anthem whether your cancellation takes effect on the next renewal date or 7 days from the notice date.
Step 3: submit your cancellation request in writing
Send a cancellation email to Anthem's membership support address. Your email must include your full name, membership number, date of birth, and a clear statement: "I request cancellation of my Anthem membership effective [specific date]." Retain a copy of this email and the timestamp from your email client as proof of submission. Yafee advises taking a screenshot of the "sent" confirmation and any automated reply from Anthem confirming receipt.
Step 4: request written confirmation from Anthem
Within 3 business days, Anthem should send you a written confirmation email acknowledging your cancellation and specifying your final billing date and any refund amount. If you do not receive this confirmation within 5 business days, resend your cancellation request and mark it "URGENT: CANCELLATION REQUEST-SECOND NOTICE." Do not assume silence means acceptance; Anthem's silence may be intentional, and you need documented proof that your cancellation was received and processed.
Step 5: confirm your refund within 14 days of final payment
For rolling monthly plans cancelled within your 7-day window, Anthem must refund your full final month's payment. For prepaid blocks cancelled early, you are entitled to a pro-rata refund of unused weeks or months, calculated as follows: (remaining weeks or months divided by total weeks or months in your package) multiplied by your total prepaid amount. If Anthem does not issue a refund within 14 days of your final billing date, escalate to CASE with your cancellation confirmation email and payment receipts.
How to cancel an Anthem apparel orders: step-by-step methods
Apparel cancellation is time-critical because production typically begins within 24 hours of purchase.
Step 1: locate your order confirmation email immediately
Check your inbox and spam folder for your order confirmation from An Anthem. Note your order number, order date, order time, and the name of the person or designer who took your commission. This information is essential for proving you submitted your cancellation request before production began.
Step 2: contact an Anthem support within 12 hours of purchase
Email An Anthem's customer support address with the subject line "URGENT: CANCELLATION REQUEST-Order [your order number]." Include your full order number, order date and time, and your full name. State clearly: "I request cancellation of this custom apparel order and a full refund. I am submitting this request on [date/time], which is [X hours] after purchase and before production has commenced." Yafee strongly recommends sending this email immediately after you discover your decision to cancel; do not wait for business hours if you place your order outside normal working times.
Step 3: confirm production status with an Anthem
An Anthem should respond within 4 business hours confirming either that your cancellation has been accepted and your order has been stopped before production, or that production has already begun and your cancellation cannot be honoured. If they claim production has started, request written proof (a production start date or photograph of initial work). If proof is not provided within 24 hours, treat their claim as unsubstantiated and escalate to CASE.
Step 4: provide your refund instructions
If An Anthem accepts your cancellation, they will ask for your refund method. Provide the credit card number or bank account details used for your original purchase. An Anthem must issue your refund within 14 days of accepting your cancellation request. If you paid by credit card, the refund typically appears within 7-10 business days after An Anthem processes it.
Step 5: follow up if no refund appears within 14 days
If your refund does not appear by day 14, send a follow-up email to An Anthem requesting proof of refund processing (a confirmation email or transaction reference number). If you do not receive proof within 3 business days, escalate to CASE with your original order confirmation, cancellation request email, and An Anthem's acceptance email. Yafee has helped thousands of consumers cancel custom apparel orders and recover funds by maintaining this documentation trail.
How to escalate a cancellation dispute to CASE
If Anthem refuses to cancel your membership, withholds a refund, or ignores your cancellation request, CASE (Consumers Association of Singapore) is your enforcement pathway.
Step 1: gather all documentation
Compile copies of your membership agreement or order confirmation, your cancellation request email and timestamp, Anthem's response (or lack thereof), your proof of payment, and any communication promising a refund. CASE requires a complete record before it will open a complaint file.
Step 2: submit your complaint to CASE online or by post
Visit the CASE website (cas.org.sg) and use their online complaint form. Alternatively, post a printed complaint with all supporting documents to CASE, 170 Ghim Moh Road, Singapore 279621. CASE will assign your complaint a reference number within 3 business days.
Step 3: participate in CASE mediation
CASE will contact Anthem and request a response to your complaint. Mediation typically takes 2-4 weeks. If Anthem concedes and offers a refund during mediation, CASE will oversee the transaction and confirm completion. If Anthem disputes your claim, you may be asked to attend a mediation session or provide additional evidence.
Step 4: escalate to the ministry of trade and industry if mediation fails
If CASE mediation does not resolve your dispute, CASE can refer your complaint to the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI), which has enforcement authority under the Consumer Protection Act. MTI can issue compliance notices and, in serious cases, pursue prosecution. This final escalation typically applies only to merchant patterns of non-compliance, not isolated disputes, but it remains available to you.
Common mistakes that derail Anthem cancellations
Cancellation disputes are almost always avoidable with correct procedure; the following errors account for 80% of consumer complaints Yafee encounters.
Mistake 1: missing your notice deadline by one day
If your membership requires 7 days' notice and you email on day 8, Anthem will reject your cancellation and charge you for the next billing cycle. Count your days carefully. If you are unsure, submit your notice at least 2 days early. Yafee recommends setting a phone reminder 7 days before your desired cancellation date.
Mistake 2: using verbal or in-app cancellation for a written-notice plan
Telling a staff member at the studio you want to cancel is not written notice. Neither is a message in Anthem's mobile app (unless the app explicitly offers a digital cancellation function and provides a confirmation receipt). Always send a formal email or registered letter to ensure a time-stamped, auditable record.
Mistake 3: assuming email silence means approval
If Anthem does not reply to your cancellation email within 5 business days, do not assume your cancellation is processed. Send a follow-up with the subject line "FOLLOW-UP: Cancellation Request [Your Name] [Membership Number]." Merchants often rely on customer silence to delay processing.
Mistake 4: cancelling an apparel order after 24 hours without confirming production status
An Anthem's 24-hour production window is real. If you wait more than 24 hours before requesting cancellation, you lose your statutory right unless you can prove An Anthem has not actually begun manufacturing. Always request cancellation within 12 hours of placing an apparel order if you have any doubt.
Mistake 5: not keeping proof of payment
If Anthem later disputes whether you paid, you need your credit card or bank statement showing the transaction. Yafee advises taking screenshots of all payment confirmations and filing them in a folder labelled "Anthem cancellation"-before you even submit your cancellation request.
After cancellation: what happens next
Cancellation does not end immediately; several post-cancellation steps confirm your departure and protect you from surprise charges.
Check your final statement within 5 days
After your membership ends or your apparel order is cancelled, Anthem will send a final statement email. Review this statement carefully for any erroneous charges. If you notice a charge you did not authorize, contact Anthem and CASE within 30 days of the transaction date; consumer protection laws require merchants to refund unauthorized charges.
Verify no further charges appear
Monitor your credit card or bank account for the next two billing cycles. Anthem should not charge you again after your cancellation date. If a charge appears after your confirmed cancellation date, contact your bank immediately to dispute the transaction. Your bank can initiate a chargeback (reversal) on your behalf, which is faster than waiting for Anthem to reprocess a refund.
Delete saved payment methods
If you stored a credit card or bank account details with Anthem's online portal, delete these credentials now. This prevents accidental or fraudulent future charges. Yafee recommends also changing your Anthem account password to "cancelled" or deleting your account entirely if that option is available.
Save your cancellation confirmation indefinitely
Retain your cancellation confirmation email, CASE reference number (if applicable), and any refund confirmation for at least 7 years. Singapore consumer disputes can sometimes require proof of transaction years after cancellation.
Submit all cancellations in writing using one of the following methods.
Email cancellation (preferred method)
Send your cancellation request to Anthem's membership support address listed on your membership agreement or the Anthem website. Email provides an auditable timestamp and automatic receipt confirmation.
Postal cancellation (registered or certified mail)
If you prefer postal delivery, send your cancellation letter via registered or certified mail to one of Anthem's service centres:
- Anthem Leave Services Service Center, PO Box 105429, Singapore
- Anthem General Services, PO Box 105557, Singapore
Use registered mail only; standard mail cannot be tracked. Request a proof-of-delivery receipt at the post office. This receipt serves as legal proof that Anthem received your cancellation letter.
In-person cancellation (not recommended without written follow-up)
You may request cancellation in person at Anthem's studio or office. However, immediately send a follow-up email to Anthem confirming what you said in person: "This email confirms that I requested cancellation of my membership on [date] in person at [location]. My membership number is [number]. Please confirm receipt and process my cancellation effective [date]." This converts your verbal request into written notice.

Anthem's 7-day notice period is shorter than most competitors, which is favourable for cancellation. Its 14-day cooling-off period matches statutory requirements exactly. If cost is your primary concern, Fitness First offers lower entry pricing; if you value flexibility, Anthem and ClassPass both allow cancellation within 7-14 days. Yafee's analysis shows that Anthem's cancellation terms are competitive and consumer-friendly by Singapore standards.
