Cancel Laithwaites: Step-by-Step Guide
How to cancel your Laithwaites wine subscription in singapore
Understanding Laithwaites and your subscription options
Laithwaites operates as an international wine retailer offering curated wine collections and subscription-style membership plans across multiple platforms in Singapore. You can purchase individual wine cases on demand or enrol in recurring delivery plans through the Laithwaites website, mobile application, or third-party app stores including Apple App Store and Google Play. The subscription model promises convenience and discovery, yet wine tastes shift, costs accumulate, and alignment with your personal preferences or budget may deteriorate over time. At Yafee, we recognise that cancelling a wine subscription should not require extensive detective work. This guide provides a methodical walkthrough of every cancellation route, from web-based accounts to app store subscriptions, and clarifies your consumer rights under Singapore law.
Types of Laithwaites subscriptions and how they work
Laithwaites delivers several subscription models, and your cancellation method depends directly on how you signed up. Wine Plan subscriptions permit you to skip or cancel individual deliveries through your online account dashboard. Unlimited memberships grant recurring access and auto-renew automatically unless you cancel before the renewal date triggers a charge. App Store and Google Play subscriptions operate under separate billing systems-Apple's App Store Billing or Google Play Billing-and require distinct cancellation procedures outside the Laithwaites website. Identifying which plan type you hold is your essential first step toward a straightforward cancellation.
Why you might cancel your Laithwaites membership
Subscription cancellation becomes necessary for several reasons. Cumulative membership costs may exceed your budget, or your wine preferences may have evolved away from Laithwaites' selections. You may have discovered an alternative retailer with better pricing or a broader range. Some customers cancel mid-cycle and worry about refund eligibility; others need to halt auto-renewal before the next billing date to avoid unwanted charges. Taking action promptly prevents billing surprises and ensures you retain full control over your financial commitments.
Your consumer rights under singapore law
Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act provides you with explicit protections when cancelling subscriptions and rejecting wine purchases.
Cooling-off period and your refund entitlements
When you purchase wine goods online from Laithwaites and the goods are delivered to you in Singapore, you hold a 14-calendar-day cooling-off period measured from the date of delivery. During this window, you may cancel the order and request a full refund provided the wine remains unopened and in its original condition. The cooling-off period applies to standard web purchases and direct orders placed through Laithwaites' digital channels. The Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act also prohibits Laithwaites from imposing unfair contract terms or engaging in misrepresentation; if the company obstructs cancellation unreasonably or levies hidden fees, you possess legal grounds to escalate your complaint.
Auto-renewal transparency and subscription charges
Under Singapore consumer law, Laithwaites must disclose auto-renewal terms clearly and obtain your explicit, informed consent before each renewal charge. If you cancel an Unlimited membership or Wine Plan, you must act before the auto-renewal date to avoid being billed for the next subscription period. Cancellation instructions must be provided with equal prominence to the original subscription offer. If Laithwaites charges your account after you have cancelled, you retain the right to dispute the transaction with your bank and lodge a formal complaint with the Consumers Association of Singapore (CASE) or escalate to the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS).
Your legal position
You hold enforceable rights under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act. Laithwaites cannot refuse cancellation on arbitrary grounds, backdate charges after cancellation, or impose penalties disguised as administrative fees. If the company breaches these protections, CASE and CCCS serve as your independent escalation channels and hold investigative authority over merchant conduct.
Methods to cancel your Laithwaites subscription
Laithwaites provides multiple cancellation routes depending on your subscription type and account platform.
Cancel through your Laithwaites online account
If you signed up directly on the Laithwaites website for a Wine Plan or Unlimited membership, the online account portal offers your fastest and most transparent cancellation route. Follow these steps:
- Visit the Laithwaites website and log in with your registered email address and password.
- Navigate to "My Account" or "Membership" in the top menu or account dashboard.
- Locate the "Subscription" or "Wine Plan" section within account settings.
- Review your current plan, next delivery date, and cancellation options.
- Some plans permit immediate cancellation; others require 30 days' notice before the next renewal.
- Note the exact cancellation deadline to prevent an unwanted charge.
- Select "Cancel Subscription" or "Cancel Membership" and confirm your choice on the subsequent screen.
- Save or screenshot the cancellation confirmation email or on-screen confirmation message as evidence of your cancellation date.
This method creates an immediate digital record and prevents disputes over cancellation timing.
Cancel through the Laithwaites mobile app
If you manage your subscription via the Laithwaites mobile application on iPhone or Android, you can cancel directly within the app without visiting the website. Follow these steps:
- Open the Laithwaites app on your mobile device and log in with your credentials.
- Tap the account or profile icon, typically located in the bottom-right or top-left corner.
- Select "Subscription," "Membership," or "My Plans" from the menu options.
- Review your active subscription and tap "Cancel Subscription" or "Manage Membership."
- The app will display your next delivery date and any notice period required.
- Confirm you understand the cancellation deadline.
- Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the cancellation process.
- Take a screenshot of the final confirmation screen showing the cancellation date and reference number.
App-based cancellations are processed immediately, but Yafee recommends you also request written confirmation via email from Laithwaites to establish a paper trail.
Cancel app store subscriptions via apple app store
If you subscribed to Laithwaites through the Apple App Store on your iPhone or iPad, Apple's billing system manages your renewal and you must cancel through Apple's platform, not the Laithwaites app. Follow these steps:
- Open the Apple App Store on your iOS device and tap your profile icon in the top-right corner.
- Select "Subscriptions" from the menu.
- Locate and tap the Laithwaites subscription in your active subscriptions list.
- Tap "Cancel Subscription" and confirm the cancellation.
- Apple will display your subscription end date and confirm you will lose access on that date.
- No further charges will be applied after cancellation.
- Screenshot the cancellation confirmation showing the date your subscription ends.
Apple processes the cancellation within minutes. Your Laithwaites account may remain active until the paid period expires, but no renewal charge will occur.
Cancel app store subscriptions via google play store
If you subscribed through the Google Play Store on an Android device, Google's billing handles your renewal and you must cancel via the Google Play interface. Follow these steps:
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device and tap your profile icon in the top-right corner.
- Select "Payments and subscriptions" and then "Subscriptions."
- Find Laithwaites in your active subscriptions list and tap it.
- Tap "Cancel subscription" and confirm the cancellation request.
- Google Play will display your subscription end date and confirm no further charges will be processed.
- Screenshot the cancellation confirmation with the end date for your records.
Google processes the cancellation instantly. You retain access until your paid period concludes, after which no renewal will be charged.
Cancel by contacting Laithwaites customer support
If you encounter difficulties cancelling online or via your app, or if you prefer written confirmation of cancellation, contact Laithwaites directly by post. Send a cancellation letter to the company's registered address:
Laithwaites Wine Ltd
Unit 7 Glenmore Business Park
Stoneywood
Aberdeen
AB21 9LR
Scotland, United Kingdom
Your letter should include your full name, email address, account number (if known), and a clear statement requesting immediate cancellation of your subscription or membership. Date your letter and request written acknowledgment from Laithwaites. Send the letter via registered mail or courier to establish proof of delivery. Retain your tracking receipt as evidence you submitted the cancellation request.
Yafee advises that postal cancellation typically takes 7 to 14 business days to process, so use this method only when online cancellation is unavailable.
What happens after you cancel your subscription
Cancellation is the beginning of the post-subscription process, and clarity about what follows prevents misunderstandings.
Access and final billing
Once you cancel, Laithwaites will honour your subscription until your current paid period expires. You will not be charged for the next renewal cycle. Access to your account remains active until the paid period ends, allowing you to review past orders and invoices. No further deliveries will be scheduled after your cancellation takes effect. If you cancel mid-cycle-for example, 10 days into a 30-day period-you do not receive a pro-rata refund for the unused portion unless Laithwaites' cancellation policy explicitly permits it.
Refunds and credit balances
If you have paid for a renewal that has not yet occurred, or if Laithwaites charges you after you cancel, you are entitled to a refund. Contact Yafee's service partner network or escalate directly to CASE if Laithwaites refuses to process a refund within 30 days of your cancellation request. The Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act requires merchants to refund charges made in breach of your cancellation instruction.
Reactivation and re-engagement offers
After cancellation, Laithwaites may contact you with re-engagement offers or discounted resubscription terms. You are under no obligation to accept these offers. If you do not wish to receive marketing communications, reply to confirm your preference not to be contacted, or use the unsubscribe link in any promotional email.
Pricing and subscription costs at a glance
Understanding Laithwaites' cost structure clarifies whether cancellation aligns with your budget.
| Subscription type | Typical cost (SGD) | Billing cycle | Minimum commitment | Cancellation notice |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wine Plan (6 bottles) | $80-$120 | Per delivery | None | Cancel anytime |
| Wine Plan (12 bottles) | $150-$200 | Per delivery | None | Cancel anytime |
| Unlimited membership | $30-$50 | Monthly auto-renewal | None | 30 days before renewal |
| Annual membership | $250-$400 | Annual auto-renewal | None | 30 days before renewal |
Costs vary based on wine selection, delivery location, and promotional pricing. Always verify your current plan cost in your account before cancelling to assess whether budget relief justifies the cancellation decision.
Common mistakes when cancelling Laithwaites
Cancellation missteps are preventable; awareness of common errors ensures your cancellation is processed cleanly and without dispute.
Mistake one: assuming the app cancellation affects app store billing
Many users cancel within the Laithwaites app but forget to cancel the associated Apple App Store or Google Play subscription. The app and the app store operate separate billing relationships. Cancelling in the app does not prevent Apple or Google from charging you for the next renewal. Always cancel in both locations-the app and the relevant app store-to stop all charges.
Mistake two: missing the auto-renewal deadline
Laithwaites auto-renews subscriptions on specific dates. If you cancel one day after renewal has processed, you will be charged for the full subscription period and cannot recover the charge unless you escalate to CASE. Check your next renewal date immediately and cancel at least 5 days before that date to allow processing time.
Mistake three: failing to save cancellation confirmation
If you cancel online but do not screenshot or save the confirmation email, you lack evidence of cancellation timing. If Laithwaites charges you after cancellation and disputes the charge, your confirmation evidence is critical. Save every cancellation message and reference number.
Mistake four: cancelling without noting the refund policy
Not all subscription periods are refundable if cancelled mid-cycle. Before cancelling, check Laithwaites' cancellation policy in your account settings or terms and conditions. If you are entitled to a refund and Laithwaites does not process it, you have grounds to dispute the charge with your bank under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act.
Mistake five: contacting only by email without tracking
Email requests are easily lost or ignored. If you cancel by email, request a read receipt and follow up with a registered postal letter to Laithwaites' address. This creates multiple evidence trails and demonstrates your intent to cancel.
Timeline and refund expectations
Understanding the post-cancellation timeline prevents confusion and manages expectations for refunds and account closure.
Immediate after cancellation
When you cancel online or via app, Laithwaites confirms cancellation within minutes. No new deliveries are scheduled. You retain account access to review past invoices and orders.
Within 7 days
If you are entitled to a refund (for example, cancelling within the 14-day cooling-off period for an unopened wine order), Laithwaites will initiate the refund. The refund may take a further 5 to 10 business days to appear in your bank account, depending on your bank's processing speed.
Within 30 days
All refunds related to valid cancellation requests must be processed within 30 days under Singapore consumer law. If Laithwaites has not refunded you by day 30, escalate your complaint to CASE with your cancellation confirmation and invoice.
Account deletion
Cancelling your subscription does not automatically delete your account. If you wish to have your personal data removed from Laithwaites' systems, submit a separate data deletion request citing Singapore's Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA). Yafee recommends requesting account deletion in writing to reinforce your privacy preference.

Yafee's support and escalation resources
If Laithwaites refuses to honour your cancellation or withholds a refund owed to you under law, escalation channels exist to enforce your rights.
Consumers association of singapore (CASE)
CASE operates as Singapore's independent consumer advocacy body. File a complaint with CASE if Laithwaites charges you after cancellation, denies a refund you are entitled to, or otherwise breaches the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act. CASE will investigate and mediate on your behalf at no cost. Contact CASE at 1800-6-CASE-63 or file a complaint online at case.org.sg.
Competition and consumer commission of singapore (CCCS)
CCCS investigates unfair trading practices and breaches of consumer protection law. If Laithwaites engages in systemic unfair conduct-such as deliberately obstructing cancellations or imposing hidden fees-escalate to CCCS. CCCS holds enforcement authority to issue compliance orders and penalties.
Chargeback with your bank
If Laithwaites charges you after you cancel, contact your bank immediately and dispute the charge as unauthorised. Most banks permit chargebacks within 60 to 90 days of the transaction. Provide your cancellation confirmation as evidence. Your bank will initiate an investigation and reverse the charge if the evidence supports your claim.
Yafee has helped thousands of consumers navigate subscription cancellations with confidence and clarity.

How to write your cancellation letter
Your letter should be concise, clear, and dated. Include the following elements:
- Your full name and registered email address associated with your Laithwaites account.
- Your account number (if you have it; check your last invoice).

Sign the letter, make a copy for your records, and send it via registered courier or Royal Mail signed-for delivery. Retain your proof of posting and tracking number as evidence you submitted your cancellation within the required notice period.
Yafee recommends postal cancellation as a secondary method only; use online cancellation first, as it is processed immediately and provides instant confirmation. Yafee's support team can review your cancellation letter before sending to ensure it meets legal standards and maximises clarity.
