Frequently asked questions
Cancel Flexship: The Right Way
How to cancel Flexship in south africa and protect your subscription rights
Understanding Flexship and why you might want to cancel
Flexship is an automated subscription service that delivers hair and skincare products to your door on a schedule you choose. Instead of manually reordering every month or quarter, the service handles renewals for you, charging your payment method at regular intervals. For many South African customers, this convenience works well. For others, changing needs, budget shifts, or unexpected charges make cancellation the right choice.
At Yafee, we help thousands of consumers navigate subscription services like Flexship with confidence. This guide walks you through every step of the cancellation process, explains your rights under South African law, and shows you how to avoid common traps that leave people stuck paying longer than they intend.
What Flexship does
Flexship manages recurring orders of personal care products, syncing with your mobile device's app store billing system. Whether you use iOS or Android, the subscription renews automatically unless you take action to stop it. The service is linked to Flexship Sdn Bhd, the provider responsible for your account and billing.
Why cancellation matters now
If you've decided Flexship no longer fits your needs, cancelling promptly protects your bank account and prevents unwanted charges. Many subscribers delay cancellation, worried about the process, and end up paying for months they didn't use. Yafee exists to make sure that doesn't happen to you.
Your legal position under south african consumer law
South Africa's Consumer Protection Act, 2008 (CPA) grants you specific rights when cancelling subscription services like Flexship. Understanding these protections strengthens your position and provides clear grounds for action if the company refuses to comply.
Consumer protection act rights for subscription cancellation
Under the CPA, you have the right to cancel any distance contract (a contract concluded without face-to-face negotiation, such as an online or app-based subscription) within 5 business days of formation, with no penalty or fee. This is known as your cancellation period. After this period expires, you retain the right to cancel at any time, but the provider may enforce the terms of your contract, including notice periods.
The CPA also requires that Flexship act in good faith and not mislead you about cancellation. The company must provide clear instructions for cancellation and process your request without delay. If you cancel, Flexship must cease charging your payment method within 5 business days of receiving your cancellation notice.
National credit act protections for linked accounts
If your Flexship subscription is linked to credit or debit arrangements, the National Credit Act, 1999 (NCA) provides additional safeguards. The NCA requires that any credit provider linked to your account cease charging once you cancel. Yafee recommends checking whether your payment method is subject to the NCA; your bank statement will clarify this.
Methods to cancel Flexship in south africa
Your cancellation method depends on which app store you used to sign up and whether you prefer digital or postal communication. Yafee recommends using the app store method (fastest) and following up with written notice (most legally robust).
Cancel via apple app store (iOS)
If you signed up through an iPhone or iPad, you must cancel through Apple's subscription management system. This method is the quickest and gives you immediate confirmation.
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
- Tap your name at the top of the screen to access your Apple ID profile.
- Select "Subscriptions" from the menu that appears.
- You will see a list of all active subscriptions tied to your Apple account.
- Find Flexship in the list of active subscriptions and tap it.
- If Flexship does not appear, you may be signed up via Android or a different payment method.
- Tap "Cancel Subscription" and confirm your choice.
- Apple will ask you to confirm the cancellation; select "Confirm" when prompted.
- Screenshot or save the confirmation page immediately.
- Apple displays your cancellation date and the end of your current billing period on this screen.
Important: Your access continues until the end of your current billing period. You do not lose access to services you have already paid for. Apple will not refund unused days within your current billing cycle, but you will not be charged again.
Cancel via google play store (Android)
If you signed up through an Android device, cancellation happens through Google Play's subscription management interface. Google processes cancellations within minutes and sends confirmation by email.
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android phone or tablet.
- Ensure you are logged into the Google account linked to Flexship.
- Tap your profile icon in the top right corner of the screen.
- This opens your account menu.
- Select "Manage subscriptions" from the menu options.
- Google displays all active subscriptions on your account.
- Find Flexship in your active subscriptions list and tap it.
- Flexship will appear with your current billing period and renewal date.
- Tap "Cancel subscription" and select your reason (optional).
- Google allows you to provide feedback, but this is not mandatory.
- Confirm your cancellation when the final prompt appears.
- Google processes the cancellation immediately and sends a confirmation email to your registered account within minutes.
Critical distinction: Android displays both "Pause subscription" and "Cancel subscription" options. Pausing temporarily stops charges but the subscription will resume after the pause period ends. To permanently stop Flexship, you must select "Cancel subscription," not "Pause."
Cancel by written notice to Flexship sdn bhd
For legal robustness under South African consumer law, Yafee recommends sending a written cancellation notice to Flexship's registered address. This creates a dated, documented record of your cancellation request, which protects you if disputes arise.
- Draft a cancellation letter or email containing your full name, account email address, and subscription details.
- Include the exact date you are requesting cancellation to take effect.
- State clearly: "I hereby cancel my Flexship subscription effective immediately, in accordance with the Consumer Protection Act, 2008."
- This language ensures the company understands your legal basis for cancellation.
- Send this notice to Flexship Sdn Bhd at the address listed at the end of this guide.
- Use registered mail or a service that provides proof of delivery (such as certified mail or email read receipt).
- Keep a copy of your sent notice and any proof of delivery for your records.
- This documentation supports any future dispute with Flexship or your bank.
Timing your cancellation to avoid surprise charges
Flexship charges your renewal within 24 hours before your billing period ends. Understanding your renewal date is essential to cancelling before you incur an unwanted charge.
Identify your renewal date
Check your last Flexship confirmation email, app invoice, or bank statement to find the exact date your next renewal is scheduled. If today is 15 March and your renewal is 20 March, you must cancel by 19 March to avoid the charge. Yafee strongly recommends marking this date on your calendar and setting a phone reminder.
Cancel at least 24 hours before renewal
To be absolutely certain your cancellation processes before renewal, cancel at least 24 hours (ideally 2-3 days) before your renewal date. If you cancel on your renewal date itself, there is a risk that the system will process the charge before your cancellation takes effect.
Verify cancellation before the renewal date
After cancelling through your app store, log in to your account 24 hours later and confirm that Flexship is no longer listed as an active subscription. If it still appears, contact your app store's customer support immediately. Screenshot evidence of the active subscription if this occurs, as it will support any refund claim.
Pricing and what you pay for Flexship
Flexship charges vary based on your chosen frequency and product selection. The table below outlines typical South African pricing for Flexship subscriptions.
| Subscription plan | Billing frequency | Typical monthly cost (ZAR) | Cancellation penalty |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard beauty box | Monthly | R299-R499 | None after cooling-off period |
| Premium beauty box | Monthly | R549-R799 | None after cooling-off period |
| Quarterly box | Every 3 months | R899-R1,499 | None after cooling-off period |
| Custom selection | Monthly or quarterly | Varies (R250-R2,000+) | None after cooling-off period |
Under the CPA, Flexship cannot charge you a cancellation fee after your 5-day cooling-off period expires if you cancel in accordance with the company's terms. However, any charge that occurs before your cancellation takes effect is legally valid. This makes timing crucial.
After cancellation: what happens next
Once you cancel Flexship, specific steps follow automatically. Understanding this timeline prevents confusion and helps you verify that the cancellation is complete.
Access ceases at the end of your billing period
Your Flexship app access continues until the end of your current billing period. If you cancel on 15 March and your billing period ends on 20 March, you retain access until 20 March. After that date, logging into your Flexship account may no longer be possible, though this varies depending on the company's system configuration.
Verify no further charges appear
Check your bank or credit card statement 7-10 days after your billing period ends. If Flexship has processed your cancellation correctly, no charge should appear on this date. If a charge does appear, Yafee recommends disputing it immediately through your bank, providing your cancellation confirmation as evidence.
Retain your cancellation evidence
Keep screenshots of your app store cancellation confirmation and any written notice you sent to Flexship for at least 12 months. This documentation protects you if you need to dispute a charge or claim a refund.
Refunds: what you can claim and how
Flexship does not refund unused days within your current billing cycle. Once your cancellation takes effect, you stop paying going forward, but you cannot recover money for days already charged.
Claim a refund if Flexship charged you after cancellation
If Flexship charged you after your cancellation took effect, you have grounds to claim a refund under the CPA. Follow this process:
- Contact Flexship directly by email using your confirmation letter as reference.
- Attach a copy of your cancellation confirmation and your bank statement showing the erroneous charge.
- Request a refund in writing and specify the exact charge amount and date.
- Yafee recommends requesting this within 30 days of the unwanted charge.
- If Flexship refuses or does not respond within 10 business days, contact your bank or credit card issuer.
- Most banks will dispute charges on your behalf if you provide evidence of cancellation.
- If your bank declines to dispute, escalate your complaint to the National Credit Regulator (NCR) or the Consumer Commission, depending on whether credit is involved.
- Both bodies enforce the CPA and can compel Flexship to refund erroneous charges.
Dispute unauthorized charges through your financial institution
If you did not authorize a charge or Flexship continued billing after you cancelled, your bank or credit card company has a legal duty to investigate. Provide them with your app store cancellation confirmation and any written notice. Most financial institutions reverse erroneous subscription charges within 5-10 business days.
Common mistakes that delay or prevent cancellation
Cancelling Flexship is straightforward, but small errors can derail the process or leave your subscription active. Yafee has identified the most common pitfalls-avoid them and your cancellation will complete smoothly.
Deleting the app without cancelling the subscription
The single most common error: users delete the Flexship app from their phone and assume the subscription is cancelled. Deleting the app removes it from your home screen, but it does not cancel your subscription. Flexship continues to charge your payment method because the underlying subscription remains active in your app store account. Always cancel through Settings (iOS) or Manage Subscriptions (Android) before deleting the app.
Confusing "pause" with "cancel" on android
Google Play displays both "Pause subscription" and "Cancel subscription." Pausing stops charges for a set period (usually 1-3 months), but the subscription automatically resumes after the pause ends. If you want to cancel permanently, you must select the "Cancel" option. Yafee recommends taking a screenshot of the cancellation confirmation to ensure you chose "Cancel," not "Pause."
Cancelling too close to the renewal date
If you cancel within 24 hours of your renewal date, Flexship's billing system may process the charge before your cancellation takes effect. Always cancel at least 2-3 days before your renewal date to ensure the system processes your cancellation before the charge is due.
Failing to verify cancellation after submission
After cancelling, many customers assume the process is complete without verifying. Technical glitches occasionally prevent cancellations from processing. Log into your account 24 hours after cancelling and confirm that Flexship is no longer listed as an active subscription. If it still appears, contact your app store's customer support immediately.
Not keeping evidence of your cancellation
If a dispute arises-for example, if Flexship charges you after cancellation-your cancellation confirmation is your strongest evidence. Screenshots of app store confirmations and copies of written notices protect you in disputes with Flexship or your bank.

Escalating complaints if Flexship refuses to cancel
In rare cases, Flexship may refuse to process your cancellation or continue charging after you cancel. South African consumer law provides clear escalation routes if this occurs.
Step 1: formal complaint to Flexship
Send a formal written complaint to Flexship Sdn Bhd stating that the company has failed to process your cancellation in breach of the Consumer Protection Act. Request a written response within 10 business days. Yafee recommends using registered mail so you have proof of delivery.
Step 2: dispute with your bank
If Flexship does not respond or refuses to cancel, contact your bank or credit card issuer immediately. Provide your cancellation evidence and request that the bank dispute any charges incurred after your cancellation date. Banks are required by the National Payment System Act to investigate such disputes.
Step 3: complaint to the consumer commission
If your bank declines to assist or Flexship still refuses to comply, lodge a formal complaint with the Consumer Commission (now part of the Department of Trade, Industry and Competition). The Commission enforces the CPA and can compel Flexship to refund erroneous charges and pay damages. Yafee has helped thousands of consumers use this escalation path successfully.
