Frequently asked questions
Cancel Trellis: Step-by-Step Guide
How to cancel Trellis and recover your account in singapore
Understanding Trellis and why cancellation matters
Trellis operates as a membership-based service in Singapore, and your cancellation pathway depends entirely on which product tier you hold. Understanding your account type before you submit a cancellation request saves you time and protects your consumer rights under Singapore law. Yafee specialises in untangling these distinctions for consumers, and we want to walk you through the legal framework and practical steps with complete clarity.
What Trellis actually offers
Trellis is primarily a coworking and community membership service operating across Singapore. Members gain access to shared workspaces, networking events, and professional community benefits. The service operates on fixed billing cycles, typically monthly or annual, with distinct cancellation rules depending on your membership tier and contract terms.
Your cancellation process hinges on whether you signed a month-to-month agreement or a fixed-term contract. Month-to-month members enjoy greater flexibility, whilst fixed-term members face notice requirements or early termination penalties. Yafee recommends reviewing your account confirmation email to establish which billing structure you hold before proceeding.
Why this distinction protects you
If you hold a flexible membership, you can typically cancel with 30 days' written notice. If you are locked into a fixed contract, you must either wait for the renewal date or pay an exit fee. Knowing this distinction upfront prevents unnecessary disputes and ensures you submit your cancellation through the correct channel with appropriate notice.
Your consumer protection rights in singapore
Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act establishes your foundational rights when dealing with any service provider, including Trellis.
Legal framework for membership cancellation
The Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act protects you by requiring that all goods and services meet acceptable quality standards and match their description. Unfair contract terms that impose one-sided obligations on you are not enforceable. If Trellis continues billing you after cancellation, misrepresents membership benefits, or denies you access without cause, you have legal grounds to dispute these actions.
Furthermore, the Act requires that cancellation terms be transparent and communicated clearly before you sign. Hidden cancellation fees or unilateral extension clauses often fail legal scrutiny. If Trellis breaches these protections, you can escalate your complaint to the Consumer Association of Singapore (CASE), which mediates disputes at no cost to you.
Your legal position on cancellation
You have the right to:
- Cancel your membership by written notice (email satisfies this requirement under Singapore law).
- Receive written confirmation of your cancellation and its effective date within 5 business days.
- Dispute any charges that appear after your confirmed cancellation date.
- Pursue a refund if Trellis fails to deliver agreed services or breaches contract terms.
- Lodge a free complaint with CASE if Trellis refuses to honour your cancellation rights.
Consequently, you must keep all cancellation correspondence, payment records, and service confirmation statements. These documents form your evidence base if a dispute escalates.
Why you might cancel Trellis
Common reasons for cancelling Trellis membership include change of employment, relocation outside Singapore, cost reduction, or unmet service expectations.
Legitimate cancellation scenarios
You may cancel without penalty if Trellis fails to provide agreed workspace access, cancels community events without notice, or materially changes membership terms. You may also cancel if you no longer require coworking facilities, are relocating, or find a more suitable alternative. Each scenario carries different implications for refund eligibility and notice periods.
If you are cancelling because Trellis breached its obligations, you have stronger grounds for a refund of unused fees. If you are simply choosing not to renew, standard notice requirements apply. Yafee advises that you document your reason for cancellation in your formal request, as this strengthens your position if a dispute arises.
Step-by-step cancellation process
Cancelling Trellis requires a formal written request and verification of your account details to prevent fraud.
Gather your account information
Before submitting any cancellation request, locate your account number, membership tier, billing email, and the date you joined Trellis. This information appears on your membership confirmation email or payment receipts. Having these details to hand accelerates the process and prevents processing delays.
Submit your written cancellation request
You must submit your cancellation by email to Trellis' official member services address. Your email should include:
- Your full name and registered email address on file.
- Use the exact name that appears on your account.
- Include your membership ID if provided.
- A clear statement: "I request to cancel my Trellis membership effective [date]."
- Specify your desired cancellation date (minimum 30 days from submission for flexible plans).
- Include the phrase "effective [date]" to establish legal notice.
- Your current billing email and phone number for verification.
- This confirms your identity and prevents unauthorised cancellations.
- Your reason for cancellation (optional but recommended).
- State if you are cancelling due to service failure, relocation, or cost.
- This information helps you if you later dispute a refusal to cancel.
Save a copy of this email in a dedicated folder. This becomes your proof of timely notice if Trellis later disputes your cancellation date.
Receive written cancellation confirmation
Within 5 business days of your request, Trellis must send you a written confirmation email that includes:
- Acknowledgment that your cancellation request has been received.
- Your effective cancellation date.
- Details of any final charges or refund processing.
- The contact person handling your account.
If you do not receive this confirmation within 5 days, send a follow-up email referencing your original cancellation request. Yafee emphasises that this confirmation is legally essential; without it, you lack proof of formal notice.
Monitor your account access and billing
After your effective cancellation date, verify that your access to Trellis facilities terminates as confirmed. Check your bank statements for any charges after the cancellation date. If you observe unexpected post-cancellation billing, contact your bank immediately to dispute the charge and forward the dispute reference number to Trellis as evidence of your cancellation.
Refund eligibility and payment processing
Your refund entitlement depends on your membership tier, contract type, and the reason for cancellation.
When you qualify for a refund
You are entitled to a refund of pre-paid unused membership fees if you cancel during a billing cycle and your membership terms permit pro-rata refunds. Typically, Trellis calculates refunds on a daily basis from your cancellation date to the end of your billing period. If you are cancelling due to Trellis' service failure or breach of contract, you may claim a full refund of all fees paid during the breach period.
Conversely, if you signed a fixed-term contract and are cancelling early without contractual grounds, you may forfeit your refund and owe an early termination fee. In accordance with the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act, any such fee must be a genuine pre-estimate of Trellis' losses, not a penalty. Excessive termination fees are unenforceable.
Refund processing timeline
Once Trellis confirms your cancellation, it must process any refund within 14 calendar days. The refund appears in your original payment method (bank account, credit card, or digital wallet). If the refund does not arrive within 20 days, contact Trellis to request a refund status update, then escalate to your bank if payment is not released within 30 days.
| Membership tier | Notice period | Refund eligibility | Early exit fee |
|---|---|---|---|
| Month-to-month flexible | 30 days | Pro-rata refund of unused fees | None (typically) |
| Annual fixed contract | 30 days | Pro-rata refund minus exit fee | 10-20% of remaining balance |
| Enterprise / bespoke | As per contract | As negotiated | As negotiated |
| Membership suspended | Immediate | Full refund of pre-paid period | None |
What happens after cancellation
The weeks following your cancellation request require active verification to ensure Trellis honours the agreement.
Verify your account closure
On your effective cancellation date, attempt to log into your Trellis account. Your login should fail or display a message confirming your membership has ended. If your account remains active beyond the confirmed cancellation date, contact Trellis immediately with your cancellation confirmation email. This signals that a system error requires correction.
Check for post-cancellation charges
Review your bank and credit card statements weekly for 60 days after cancellation. Watch for any recurring charges, surprise fees, or subscription renewals. If Trellis bills you after your cancellation date, you have the right to dispute this charge with your bank within 180 days. Yafee recommends flagging any disputed charge promptly; banks process disputes more favourably when you act quickly.
Request a closure summary
If you paid upfront fees (annual plans, security deposits, or event credits), ask Trellis to provide a final account statement showing all charges, credits, and your net refund amount. This document protects you if you later dispute the refund calculation. Keep this statement for at least two years in case of audit or legal inquiry.
Common mistakes to avoid during cancellation
Cancellation disputes are often preventable with careful attention to detail; Yafee has seen cancellations delayed or rejected simply because members overlooked a single procedural step.
Forgetting to use formal written notice
Verbal requests or informal chats with staff do not satisfy legal notice requirements. Always submit your cancellation by email to the official member services address. Verbal cancellations are not enforceable; Trellis can later claim no cancellation was received. Written email provides timestamp proof and legally binding evidence of your intent.
Miscalculating your notice period
If your contract requires 30 days' notice, that period begins on the date Trellis receives your cancellation email, not the date you send it. A cancellation email sent on 15th November requesting cancellation on 15th December satisfies the requirement if Trellis receives it by 15th November. However, if Trellis does not receive it until 16th November, your earliest cancellation date becomes 16th December. Always allow time for email delivery and add one day as a buffer.
Failing to keep cancellation records
Save your cancellation email, Trellis' confirmation response, and all associated correspondence in a dedicated folder. Screenshot your account settings before cancellation to show your membership status. These records become essential if you later dispute a refund calculation or post-cancellation charge. Without records, Trellis can deny receiving your request, leaving you with no evidence of proper notice.
Cancelling through the wrong channel
Trellis may list multiple contact addresses on its website. Always use the official member cancellation email address, not general enquiries or support channels. Sending your cancellation to the wrong address causes delays and may be treated as informal notice rather than formal legal cancellation.
Comparison of singapore membership services
Understanding how Trellis' cancellation terms compare to competing coworking providers helps you assess whether your cancellation is justified and competitive.
| Service | Notice period | Exit fee | Refund policy | Cancellation method |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Trellis | 30 days | 10-20% (fixed only) | Pro-rata minus fee | Email + form |
| The Working Capitol | 30 days | 5-15% | Pro-rata | |
| JustCo | 14 days | None (flexible) | Pro-rata | Online portal |
| WeSpace | 30 days | 20% | Pro-rata | Email + form |
| SPA Offices | 60 days | 15% | Pro-rata |
If Trellis refuses to cancel
If Trellis ignores your cancellation request or disputes your right to cancel, Singapore law provides clear escalation pathways.
Document the refusal
Send a follow-up email to Trellis with the subject line "Cancellation dispute: Formal notice of breach" and reference your original cancellation request. Request written confirmation of why your cancellation has been denied. Give Trellis 7 calendar days to respond with a written explanation. Save all correspondence.
Escalate to CASE (Consumer association of singapore)
If Trellis does not respond or refuses your cancellation without legal justification, lodge a complaint with CASE. The process is free, confidential, and does not require a lawyer. You can file a complaint online at CASE's website or visit their office at 170 Ghim Moh Road, Singapore 279621. CASE will mediate between you and Trellis to reach a resolution. If mediation fails, CASE can refer your case for legal action.
Dispute the charge with your bank
If Trellis continues billing you after a confirmed cancellation, contact your bank's dispute resolution team immediately. Provide your bank with a copy of your cancellation confirmation email and all post-cancellation charges. Your bank can reverse unauthorised charges and investigate Trellis' payment practices. This action does not prevent further legal steps but secures your funds quickly.
Checklist for successful cancellation
Use this checklist to verify you have completed every required step before submitting your cancellation.
- Account verification: Confirm your membership tier, billing email, and account number.
- Notice period calculation: Determine your contract type (flexible or fixed) and calculate your minimum notice period.
- Cancellation date selection: Choose a date at least 30 days from today (or as per your contract).
- Email drafting: Write your formal cancellation request including name, email, membership ID, and effective date.
- Submission: Send your email to the official Trellis member cancellation address from your registered account email.
- Proof of receipt: Save your sent email and request a read receipt from Trellis.
- Confirmation tracking: Monitor your inbox for Trellis' written confirmation within 5 business days.
- Refund calculation: Request an itemised final account statement from Trellis showing all charges and refund amount.
- Post-cancellation verification: Confirm on your effective date that your account access is terminated.
- Banking check: Monitor your bank statements for 60 days to detect unauthorised post-cancellation charges.
Final guidance and next steps
Cancelling your Trellis membership is a straightforward legal process when you follow the correct procedural steps and maintain clear written records. Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act protects your right to cancel on reasonable notice, and Trellis cannot enforce excessive exit fees or refuse cancellation without legal grounds.
The key to a smooth cancellation is formal written notice with adequate notice period, immediate confirmation, and post-cancellation verification. If Trellis refuses your cancellation or continues billing after your effective date, escalate to CASE or your bank without hesitation; both have authority to compel compliance and recover unauthorised charges.
