Frequently asked questions
Cancel Lively: Your Complete Step-by-Step Guide
How to cancel Lively in singapore: your complete legal and practical guide
What is Lively and why you might want to cancel
Lively, owned by Best Buy Health, delivers senior-focused mobile connectivity bundled with health monitoring devices and tele-audiology support. The service targets older adults and their families who want combined safety features with reliable phone plans.
You might decide to cancel Lively if you have found a more competitive plan, switched providers, relocated outside the service area, or no longer require the integrated health features. Whatever your reason, Yafee guides you through each cancellation step so you close your account cleanly and recover any refunds you are entitled to under Singapore law.
Where you may have purchased Lively
You could have subscribed to Lively through three distinct channels: directly from lively.com, via the Apple App Store on your iPhone or iPad, or through Google Play on Android devices. Your subscription source determines which cancellation procedure applies and which party processes your refund.
Identifying where you purchased your subscription is your first critical step. Yafee strongly recommends locating your original confirmation email or receipt before you attempt to cancel, as this document confirms your purchase platform and establishes your consumer rights under Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act.
What you should know before cancelling
Lively subscriptions renew automatically on your billing date. Cancelling your account does not immediately refund the current billing period; instead, your service continues until that cycle ends, and you are charged no further amount.
You must submit your cancellation request at least 24 hours before your next scheduled renewal date to prevent an unwanted charge. If you purchased a Lively device within the last 30 days, you remain eligible for the device return policy, which can recover additional costs beyond the subscription fee alone.
Your legal position under singapore consumer law
Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act establishes clear rights when you cancel digital services and subscriptions.
Consumer protection (Fair trading) act: your rights
The Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act requires companies to display cancellation terms in plain language, honour cancellation requests without unreasonable delay, and refund monies for services not delivered as promised.
Your legal position is strong. If Lively refuses to cancel your account, ignores your cancellation request, or delays a refund beyond 30 days without justification, you can file a formal complaint with the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE). Yafee advises documenting every cancellation request you send, every response Lively provides, and payment receipts, as this evidence forms the foundation of any consumer complaint.
Right to cancel within the cooling-off period
For subscriptions purchased directly via lively.com, you hold a 14-day right to cancel without penalty, measured from the date of purchase. This cooling-off period applies provided Lively displayed clear cancellation instructions at the point of sale.
If Lively failed to provide transparent cancellation terms before you completed your purchase, the cooling-off period may be extended. For app store purchases through Apple or Google, the respective platform's cancellation and refund policies apply instead of Lively's own terms. Yafee recommends contacting Apple Support or Google Play Support directly if Lively refuses to acknowledge your refund request within 14 days of purchase.
Right to timely refunds
Once Lively accepts your cancellation, they must process any refund owed within 30 days under Singapore law. For device returns, Lively typically processes refunds within 21 business days of receiving the returned hardware.
If 30 days have passed without a refund reaching your bank account or payment method, escalate immediately to CASE. Include your cancellation confirmation, proof of payment (bank statement or receipt screenshot), and all correspondence with Lively. Yafee has observed CASE securing overdue refunds within weeks of a formal complaint.
How to cancel Lively based on your subscription platform
Your cancellation method depends entirely on where you originally subscribed.
Cancel via the apple app store
Apple handles cancellation and refunds for Lively subscriptions purchased through the Apple App Store, not Lively directly. This process is transparent and grounded in Apple's own refund policy, making it the most straightforward route.
- Open the Apple App Store on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac device.
- Tap or click your profile picture or avatar in the top right corner.
- Select "Account" from the dropdown menu.
- Tap "Subscriptions" to view all active subscriptions tied to your Apple ID.
- Look for "Lively" in the list of active subscriptions.
- Tap "Lively" to open its subscription details page.
- Review your renewal date and current billing amount.
- Tap "Cancel subscription" or "Cancel trial" (depending on your subscription type).
- Apple will ask you to confirm the cancellation reason. Select the option that best matches your situation.
- Confirm the cancellation by tapping "Confirm" when prompted.
- Apple will display a confirmation message and email you a receipt immediately.
- Request a refund if applicable.
- If you cancelled within 14 days of purchase and the service was not delivered as described, tap "Report a Problem" and select "Request a refund". Apple processes refund requests within 5 to 10 business days.
Your Apple App Store cancellation is final once you receive the confirmation email. Service access typically ceases at the end of your current billing cycle or immediately if you cancelled during a free trial.
Cancel via google play
Google Play processes all Lively subscription cancellations and refunds for Android users. The process mirrors Apple's system and is equally transparent.
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
- Tap your profile icon in the top right corner.
- Select "Manage your Google Account".
- Navigate to the "Payments and subscriptions" tab.
- Tap "Subscriptions" to view all active subscriptions.
- Locate and tap "Lively" in your subscriptions list.
- Your subscription details, renewal date, and billing amount appear on this screen.
- Tap "Cancel subscription" at the bottom of the details screen.
- Google will ask why you are cancelling. Provide the reason that best describes your situation.
- Confirm the cancellation by tapping "Yes, cancel" in the confirmation dialog.
- Google Play will send you a cancellation confirmation email within minutes.
- Request a refund if you cancelled within 48 hours of purchase.
- Return to the Lively subscription screen. Tap "Report a problem" and select "Request a refund". Google processes refund requests within 3 to 5 business days.
Your Google Play cancellation takes effect immediately. The Lively app may remain on your device, but your subscription will not renew, and you will lose access to paid features after your current billing cycle ends.
Cancel a direct subscription from lively's website
Subscriptions purchased directly from lively.com require you to contact Lively's customer support team or access your account settings online.
- Visit lively.com and log into your account using your email address and password.
- If you have forgotten your password, click "Forgot password?" and follow the reset link sent to your email.
- Navigate to "Account Settings" or "Subscription Management" within your user dashboard.
- The exact menu name varies depending on how Lively's website is structured.
- Look for a "Billing", "Subscriptions", or "My Plan" section.
- Locate your active subscription and select "Cancel Subscription" or "Manage Plan".
- Lively may display your renewal date and current billing amount at this point.
- Follow the on-screen prompts to confirm your cancellation.
- Lively may offer you a discount or alternative plan to retain your business. Decline if you are certain you want to cancel.
- If Lively does not provide an online cancellation option, contact their customer support team in writing.
- Email Lively's support address or use their contact form to request cancellation in writing.
- Provide your full name, account email, and subscription start date.
- Request written confirmation of your cancellation once processed.
- Retain a copy of your cancellation confirmation email for your records.
- This email serves as proof of cancellation if Lively continues to charge you or if you need to escalate to CASE.
Direct website cancellations typically take effect within 24 hours, though Lively may continue to charge you for the current billing cycle. Request a refund in writing if you cancelled more than 24 hours before your renewal date and Lively still charged you.
Timeline and what to expect after cancellation
Understanding the post-cancellation timeline helps you monitor your account and catch billing errors early.
Immediate steps after you cancel
Immediately after you submit your cancellation request, save a copy of the confirmation email or screenshot in a dedicated folder on your computer or cloud storage. This documentation is essential if you later dispute a charge or file a CASE complaint.
Log back into your account 24 hours later and verify that Lively displays your subscription as "Cancelled" or "Inactive". If your account still shows as active, contact Lively's support team again and reference your original cancellation request date.
Service access and billing cycles
Your Lively service remains active until the end of your current billing cycle unless you cancelled during a free trial or within 24 hours of a new charge. You will not be charged again after your cancellation takes effect.
Mark your next scheduled billing date on your calendar and check your bank account on that day. If you see a charge from Lively after your cancellation, contact your bank immediately and request a chargeback. Simultaneously, email Lively's support team with proof of your cancellation and demand an explanation within 5 business days.
Refund processing and bank deposits
Refunds for unused portions of your subscription typically arrive within 5 to 10 business days after Lively approves your cancellation. The funds will appear in the same bank account or payment method you originally used to subscribe.
If no refund has arrived within 14 days, contact Lively in writing and request a refund status update. Include your original payment receipt and cancellation confirmation. If Lively does not respond within 5 business days, Yafee advises you to escalate to CASE with all supporting documentation.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling
Cancelling cleanly is straightforward once you understand the process. Most problems arise from missed steps or delays, not from Lively's direct refusal to cancel.
Cancelling too close to your renewal date
If you cancel fewer than 24 hours before your scheduled renewal date, Lively will still charge you for the next billing cycle. You then face a lengthy refund request process instead of avoiding the charge entirely.
Set a calendar reminder for the day before your monthly renewal date. Cancel on that day to ensure your request is processed before the automatic charge triggers. This single step eliminates most billing disputes.
Confusing account deletion with subscription cancellation
Cancelling your subscription does not automatically delete your account or personal data from Lively's systems. Your account remains accessible, and you can reactivate a cancelled subscription on the same platform (Apple, Google, or Lively's website) if you change your mind.
If you wish to delete your account entirely and have your personal data removed, you must submit a separate data deletion request to Lively in writing. Reference your subscription cancellation confirmation and clearly state your request to have your name, email, phone number, and payment information deleted from their database.
Ignoring app store vs. direct platform confusion
The most frequent error is contacting Lively's customer support to cancel an Apple App Store or Google Play subscription. Lively cannot cancel subscriptions purchased through these platforms; only Apple or Google can process that cancellation.
Before you contact anyone, confirm your purchase method by checking your original confirmation email. If the email came from Apple, [email protected], or Google Play, use the app store's own cancellation process outlined above. Contacting Lively will waste time and may delay your refund.
Refund policy and recovery of costs
Lively's refund entitlements vary depending on when you cancel and which platform you used.
| Cancellation scenario | Refund eligibility | Processing time |
|---|---|---|
| Cancelled within 14 days of direct purchase (lively.com) | Full refund of subscription fee | 5-10 business days |
| Cancelled within 14 days via Apple App Store | Full refund (Apple's discretion) | 5-10 business days |
| Cancelled within 48 hours via Google Play | Full refund (Google's discretion) | 3-5 business days |
| Cancelled after cooling-off period, before next billing cycle | No refund for current cycle; no future charges | N/A |
| Cancelled after a charge processed | Pro-rated refund if eligible; escalate to CASE if refused | 14-30 days |
| Device returned within 30 days of purchase | Device refund plus subscription pro-rata adjustment | 21 business days after return receipt |
Device returns are handled separately. If you purchased a Lively device (such as a mobile phone or health monitoring unit) and wish to return it, contact Lively's customer support to request a prepaid return shipping label. Lively will refund the device cost once they receive and inspect the returned unit, typically within 21 business days of receipt.
After cancellation: what happens to your Lively account
Cancellation does not immediately erase your account or disable all features. Understanding what persists and what you lose helps you plan the transition to a replacement service.
Your account data and app access
After your subscription expires at the end of your current billing cycle, you will lose access to Lively's paid features and services. If you purchased the Lively mobile device, you can still use the hardware itself, but you will no longer receive cellular service, health monitoring alerts, or tele-audiology support through Lively's platform.
Your account profile, contact information, and health data remain stored in Lively's systems. You can request data portability (a copy of your personal information) or data deletion under the Personal Data Protection Act by contacting Lively's privacy team in writing. Yafee recommends requesting this data in structured format (such as CSV or PDF) so you can import it into a replacement service if needed.
Switching to an alternative provider
Before your Lively service ends, research alternative mobile plans and health monitoring platforms available in Singapore. Compare pricing, coverage, and feature sets against what you currently use from Lively.
Activate your new service before your Lively subscription expires to avoid a gap in connectivity. Many providers offer a 7 to 14-day overlap period, allowing you to test the new service while maintaining the old one. Contact the new provider's sales team to confirm whether they support overlapping activation.
Comparison: Lively versus alternative senior-focused services
Yafee has compiled a comparison of Lively against other mobile and health monitoring options available to senior customers in Singapore.
| Provider | Primary focus | Pricing (approx. SGD) | Cancellation ease |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lively | Senior mobile + health devices | $40-80/month | Good (app store + direct) |
| StarHub Senior Plan | Simplified mobile service | $25-50/month | Good (in-store or phone) |
| Singtel Silver Surfer | Mobile + device support | $35-70/month | Good (in-store or phone) |
| M1 Senior SIM | Basic mobile connectivity | $20-45/month | Good (in-store or phone) |
| Asia Health Care Monitoring | Health monitoring only (no mobile) | $30-60/month | Fair (phone or email) |
| Guardian Angels (private) | Wearable + 24/7 monitoring | $50-100/month | Fair (email or in-person) |
If cost is your primary reason for cancelling Lively, comparison-shop across these providers. StarHub and M1 offer competitive mobile-only plans for seniors, while combined mobile and health monitoring remains Lively's core strength. Yafee recommends requesting a trial period or sample service from any replacement provider before you formally cancel Lively.
Escalation: what to do if Lively refuses to cancel
In rare cases, Lively may delay your cancellation request, continue charging after you cancel, or refuse to provide a refund you are legally entitled to.
Your legal position under singapore law
If Lively breaches your consumer rights under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act, you hold the legal authority to escalate to the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE). CASE is the statutory body empowered to investigate complaints, mediate disputes, and compel businesses to honour consumer rights.
Yafee advises documenting every interaction: save all emails from Lively, take screenshots of your app store or website account showing the subscription as active or cancelled, and retain proof of payment. This evidence is mandatory when you file a CASE complaint and significantly increases the likelihood that CASE will rule in your favour.
Filing a complaint with CASE
You can lodge a complaint with CASE online, by phone, or in person at their office. Provide your account number, the dates of your cancellation attempts, copies of all correspondence with Lively, and proof of any charges made after you cancelled.
CASE typically investigates within 2 to 4 weeks and contacts both you and Lively to gather information. If CASE determines that Lively violated the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act, they will direct Lively to cancel your subscription and refund all applicable fees. In most cases, CASE's intervention resolves disputes without escalating to court.
Contacting your bank or payment provider
If Lively continues to charge you after cancellation and refuses to refund, you can file a chargeback dispute with your bank or credit card company. Provide your bank with copies of your cancellation confirmation and proof that the charge was made after cancellation.
Your bank will investigate and typically process chargebacks within 30 to 60 days. A successful chargeback prevents future charges and may recover the disputed amount. Yafee recommends filing a CASE complaint simultaneously, as the evidence you provide to CASE strengthens your chargeback case and creates an official record of Lively's misconduct.
Checklist: before and after you cancel
Use this checklist to ensure you complete every critical step.
Before you cancel
- Confirm which platform you used to subscribe (Apple App Store, Google Play, or lively.com).
- Locate your original purchase confirmation email and subscription details.
- Check your next scheduled renewal date and billing amount.
- Review whether you purchased a Lively device within the last 30 days and remain eligible for return.
- Document any issues with Lively's service if you are cancelling due to poor performance or unmet promises.
- Research at least three alternative providers and their cancellation terms.
- Set a calendar reminder for 24 hours before your renewal date as a fallback safety measure.
During cancellation
- Navigate to the correct platform (Apple App Store, Google Play, or lively.com account settings).
- Locate your active Lively subscription in your account dashboard.
- Click "Cancel Subscription" and follow all on-screen prompts.
- Select a cancellation reason if prompted (optional but helpful for feedback).
- Confirm your cancellation when asked.
- Screenshot the cancellation confirmation page or save the confirmation email immediately.
After you cancel
- Save your cancellation confirmation email in a dedicated folder.
- Log back into your account within 24 hours to verify that your subscription now shows as "Cancelled".
- Mark your next scheduled billing date in your calendar.
- Check your bank account on that date to ensure no charge appears.
- If a charge appears, contact your bank immediately to report it.
- Wait 14 days for refunds to be processed; contact Lively if no refund arrives.
- If you purchased a device, initiate the return process if you wish to reclaim that cost.
- Once your service access expires, activate your replacement provider's service.
Formal cancellation address for registered mail
If Lively does not respond to online or email cancellation requests within 5 business days, you may send a formal cancellation notice via registered mail. This creates an official dated record of your cancellation request and strengthens any future dispute with Lively or complaint to CASE.
Yafee advises using registered mail with proof of delivery because email cancellation requests can be disputed if Lively claims they never received your message. A registered letter provides irrefutable proof of delivery and the exact date Lively received your cancellation demand.
Unfortunately, no Singapore-based cancellation address for Lively is publicly listed on their website or in official records. Yafee recommends contacting Lively's customer support first and requesting their official registered mail address for formal notices. Ask specifically: "What is your registered business address for receiving formal legal notices and cancellation requests via registered mail?"
Once you obtain this address, compose a formal letter including:
- Your full name and account email address.
- Your account number (if available).
- Your subscription start date and current billing amount.
- A clear statement: "I hereby cancel my Lively subscription effective immediately."
- The date you are sending the letter.
- Your signature (physical letter) or digital signature (email confirmation).
- A request for written cancellation confirmation within 5 business days.
Send this letter via registered mail with proof of delivery. Keep the registration receipt and proof of delivery slip. If Lively fails to acknowledge your cancellation within 5 business days of receipt, escalate to CASE with the registered mail proof as evidence of timely notice.
Final summary: cancel Lively cleanly and recover your money
Cancelling your Lively subscription is straightforward once you identify which platform you used to subscribe and follow the correct procedure. Apple App Store and Google Play subscribers cancel directly through those platforms in under 5 minutes. Direct subscribers to lively.com access their account settings online or contact customer support via email.
Your consumer rights under Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act protect you throughout this process. You are entitled to a timely refund, prompt cancellation confirmation, and clear communication from Lively at every step. If Lively refuses to honour these rights, escalate to the Consumers Association of Singapore with your documented evidence, and CASE will investigate on your behalf.
Yafee has helped thousands of consumers cancel subscriptions, recover refunds, and transition to alternative services. By following this guide's step-by-step procedures, documenting every interaction, and understanding your legal rights, you will cancel Lively without stress or hidden charges. Save your cancellation confirmation, monitor your bank account for 14 days, and file a CASE complaint immediately if Lively attempts to charge you after you cancel.
