Frequently asked questions
Cancel Cvwizard: The Right Way
How to cancel CVwizard in south africa: your rights, step-by-step guide, and refund options
What CVwizard is and why you might want to cancel
CVwizard is a subscription-based online platform that helps you build professional CVs and resumes using ready-made templates, guided workflows, and artificial intelligence-powered suggestions. The service operates as both a web application and a mobile app on iOS and Android devices, making it accessible whether you're using your phone or computer.
The platform targets job seekers who need to create polished CVs quickly. When you subscribe to premium features, you unlock access to advanced templates, job search tools, an application organizer, and other features designed to boost your employment prospects. If you've discovered you no longer need it, or if the monthly cost no longer justifies the value you're receiving, Yafee is here to guide you through cancellation with clarity and confidence.
Understanding the subscription model
CVwizard operates on a monthly recurring subscription model. You pay a fixed amount each month, and your subscription automatically renews on the same date each cycle unless you cancel in advance. This automatic renewal is why timely cancellation is essential-if you don't cancel before your renewal date, your payment method will be charged again.
Most users subscribe through their mobile devices via the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, which means Apple or Google processes your payment and manages your subscription status.
Common reasons for cancellation
You might cancel CVwizard because you've successfully secured employment, you prefer a different CV-building tool, the monthly cost no longer fits your budget, or you simply no longer need the service. Whatever your reason, South African consumer law protects your right to cancel without penalty, provided you follow the correct procedure and meet the legal timeframes.
CVwizard pricing in south africa
Current subscription costs
CVwizard charges a monthly fee for premium access in South Africa. The most commonly reported price for in-app purchases through iOS and Android is R299.99 per month. This recurring charge is automatically renewed each month unless you actively cancel your subscription before the renewal date.
Understanding your exact billing cycle and cancellation deadline is essential to avoid unwanted charges. Your renewal date is typically the same date each month as your original subscription start date.
Pricing and feature breakdown
| Plan type | Price (ZAR) | Billing cycle | Features included |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free tier | R0.00 | Ongoing | Basic CV templates, limited customization |
| Premium (in-app purchase) | R299.99 | Monthly | Premium CV templates, job listings, application organizer, AI-assisted suggestions |
Your consumer rights under south african law
The consumer protection act framework
Your cancellation rights in South Africa are grounded in the Consumer Protection Act (CPA), which applies to all distance contracts, including digital subscriptions like CVwizard. This legislation protects you as a consumer and gives you enforceable rights against the service provider. Yafee specializes in translating these rights into actionable steps you can take immediately.
The CPA establishes that you have a 14-day dissolution period-also called a cooling-off period-from the date your subscription begins. During this window, you can cancel your contract without providing any reason, and the supplier must refund your payment without undue delay.
Your legal position: the 14-day cooling-off period
During the first 14 days: You have an unconditional right to cancel. CVwizard must refund your payment within 14 days of your cancellation request. No questions asked, no penalty applied. This protection is non-negotiable under the CPA.
After the 14-day period: You retain the right to cancel your recurring subscription at any time to prevent future charges. However, CVwizard's standard refund policy states that prepaid amounts are generally not refunded if you cancel mid-cycle. What this means in practice: you can stop the recurring charges immediately, but you won't recover the current month's payment if you're partway through your billing cycle.
Your rights in case of billing errors or unauthorized charges
If you spot unauthorized charges, recurring deductions you didn't authorize, or billing errors, you have the right to dispute them with your payment provider (Apple, Google, or your bank) and escalate to the National Consumer Commission (NCC) if CVwizard does not respond fairly.
The National Consumer Commission is South Africa's official consumer protection body and has enforcement authority over breaches of the CPA. If CVwizard refuses to refund your money within 14 days of your cooling-off cancellation, or if they continue charging you after you've cancelled, the NCC can intervene on your behalf.
How to cancel CVwizard: step-by-step methods
Cancellation via apple app store (iOS)
If you subscribed to CVwizard through your iPhone or iPad, Apple handles the subscription management. Follow these steps to cancel before your next renewal date.
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
- Look for the grey gear icon on your home screen.
- Scroll down and select your Apple ID name at the top of the Settings menu.
- This opens your Apple account profile.
- Tap Subscriptions from the menu options.
- You'll see a list of all your active and inactive subscriptions.
- Find CVwizard in the subscription list and tap it.
- The subscription details screen will open.
- Tap Cancel subscription (or Edit subscription, then Cancel).
- Apple will ask you to confirm your reason for cancellation.
- Select your reason and confirm the cancellation.
- You'll receive an on-screen confirmation and a confirmation email.
Your access to CVwizard premium features continues until the end of your current billing cycle. You will not be charged again on your renewal date.
Cancellation via google play store (Android)
If you subscribed to CVwizard through an Android phone or tablet, Google Play manages your subscription. Follow these steps to cancel before your next renewal date.
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
- Tap the profile icon in the top right corner.
- Select Payments and subscriptions from the menu.
- This will show all your active subscriptions.
- Tap Subscriptions.
- You'll see a complete list of all your subscriptions.
- Find CVwizard and tap it.
- The subscription details will display.
- Tap Cancel subscription.
- Google will ask you to confirm.
- Follow the on-screen prompts and confirm your cancellation.
- You'll receive a confirmation message.
Your access to CVwizard premium features continues until the end of your current billing period. No further charges will occur after your renewal date passes.
Cancellation via the CVwizard website (direct subscription)
If you subscribed directly through the CVwizard website rather than via an app store, you may cancel directly with CVwizard. Log into your account on the CVwizard website and navigate to your account settings or subscription management page. Look for a Manage Subscription or Billing section, then select Cancel Subscription. Follow the prompts to complete cancellation. If you cannot find this option, contact CVwizard's support team directly using the contact details provided below.
What happens immediately after you cancel
Your access and billing status
Once you cancel, CVwizard will confirm your cancellation immediately. Your premium features typically remain active until the end of your current billing cycle-you won't lose access mid-month. After your billing cycle ends, your account will revert to the free tier, and no further charges will be applied to your payment method.
Save your CVs and any work you've completed during your subscription, as some premium features may become unavailable once you return to the free tier. Most platforms allow you to export your CV as a PDF before your access changes.
Refund eligibility and timeline
If you cancelled within the 14-day cooling-off period, you are entitled to a full refund of your subscription fee. The refund will be processed within 14 days of your cancellation request. The money will be returned to the original payment method you used when subscribing (your Apple ID, Google Play account, or bank account).
If you cancelled after the 14-day period, you are not entitled to a refund for the current billing cycle under CVwizard's standard terms. However, you should receive no further charges on future renewal dates.
Common cancellation mistakes and how to avoid them
Don't delay-timing is critical
You're protected under South African law, and the cancellation process is straightforward. The most common mistake is waiting until after your renewal date to cancel. By then, you've already been charged for the next month. To avoid this, note your renewal date clearly and cancel at least 24 hours before it arrives.
If you've already been charged after you intended to cancel, contact your payment provider (Apple, Google, or your bank) immediately to request a refund. If you're within 14 days of your first subscription charge, cite your cooling-off rights under the Consumer Protection Act in your refund request.
Cancelling the app doesn't cancel the subscription
Deleting the CVwizard app from your phone does not cancel your subscription. You must follow the formal cancellation steps outlined above through the app store or website. Uninstalling the app leaves your subscription active and your payment method exposed to recurring charges. Yafee recommends always verifying your cancellation through the app store directly.
Check your confirmation and monitor your account
After you cancel, you should receive a confirmation email from Apple, Google, or CVwizard. Keep this email as evidence of your cancellation. Over the next few weeks, verify that no new charges appear on your bank statement or app store account. If you see a charge after your cancellation, escalate to the app store or your bank immediately-this suggests the cancellation didn't process correctly.
If CVwizard refuses to refund or continues charging you
Escalation steps under the consumer protection act
If CVwizard refuses to refund you within 14 days of your cooling-off cancellation, or if charges continue after you've cancelled, you have a formal escalation process available under South African law.
Step 1: Contact CVwizard in writing. Send a formal request for refund to CVwizard's customer service email or postal address (see contact details below). Explain that you cancelled within 14 days and cite Section 14 of the Consumer Protection Act (the cooling-off period). Request a response within 10 business days.
Step 2: If CVwizard doesn't respond, escalate to the National Consumer Commission. You can lodge a complaint with the NCC, which has legal authority to investigate breaches of the CPA and compel refunds. The NCC contact details are: Tel: 0860 800 662, Website: www.nccsa.org.za, Email: [email protected].
Step 3: Dispute the charge with your payment provider. Contact Apple, Google, or your bank and report the charge as unauthorized or a subscription you cancelled. Provide your cancellation confirmation email as evidence. Your payment provider can reverse the charge and may investigate further on your behalf.
Your rights if charges were unauthorized
If you never authorized CVwizard charges in the first place, or if someone else used your payment method without permission, treat this as fraud. Report the charge to your bank or payment provider immediately and request a full chargeback. Yafee advises also reporting the incident to the South African Police Service (SAPS) if the amount is significant or if you suspect identity theft.

Why CVwizard might not be right for you anymore
When to keep your subscription
CVwizard remains valuable if you're actively job hunting and use its templates, job listings, and application organizer regularly. The premium features justify the R299.99 monthly cost if you submit multiple applications per week.
When to cancel
Cancel if you've secured employment, you prefer another CV tool, the cost no longer fits your budget, or you rarely log in. Yafee has helped thousands of consumers cancel subscriptions they no longer use, and the process takes just five minutes once you know the right steps.
Contact information for CVwizard support
Official contact details
If you need to contact CVwizard directly to discuss your account or cancellation, use the following contact details:
Email: [email protected]
Website support page: www.cvwizard.com/contact
When you contact CVwizard, reference your account email address and subscription details. If you're within your 14-day cooling-off period, explicitly state this and cite the Consumer Protection Act to strengthen your refund request.
Escalation to consumer authorities
National Consumer Commission (South Africa):
Phone: 0860 800 662
Website: www.nccsa.org.za
Email: [email protected]
The National Consumer Commission is your formal recourse if CVwizard breaches the Consumer Protection Act. File a complaint if you're owed a refund and CVwizard refuses to pay, or if you continue to be charged after cancelling.
Final summary and next steps
Cancelling CVwizard in South Africa is straightforward when you follow the correct legal and procedural steps. You have robust consumer rights under the Consumer Protection Act, including a 14-day cooling-off period that entitles you to a full refund without reason. If you subscribed via Apple or Google, cancellation takes less than five minutes. If you cancel after 14 days, you stop future charges but forfeit the current month's fee.
Record your renewal date, cancel through your app store or website using the steps outlined above, save your confirmation email, and monitor your bank statement for unwanted charges. If CVwizard refuses to honour your cancellation or breaches your rights, escalate to the National Consumer Commission or your payment provider. Yafee has guided South African consumers through thousands of cancellations across every major subscription service, and our approach is always the same: ground your claim in law, follow the procedural steps with precision, and don't accept pushback from the supplier.
