Frequently asked questions
Cancel Trustcheck: The Right Way
How to cancel Trustcheck in south africa and recover your money
What is Trustcheck and why you might want to cancel
Trustcheck is a subscription-based software tool designed to help you scan, monitor and manage your active subscriptions and recurring services. The platform offers a limited number of free scans, then encourages you to upgrade to a paid plan for unlimited access and advanced monitoring features.
If you've signed up and realised the service doesn't match your needs, or you've discovered a better alternative, cancelling is straightforward. At Yafee, we understand that subscription fatigue is real, and we're here to walk you through every step of exiting this commitment without hassle or hidden costs.
Why people cancel Trustcheck
Common reasons include discovering you don't need unlimited scans, finding the interface difficult to navigate, or simply wanting to reduce monthly expenses. Some users find they can track subscriptions manually more easily, whilst others realise the service duplicates functionality they already have elsewhere. Whatever your reason, you have consumer protections in South Africa that work in your favour.
The good news about cancelling
Trustcheck lets you cancel via multiple channels: your app store account (Apple App Store or Google Play), or directly through their web support portal. You remain in control, and your subscription won't auto-renew after you take action. Yafee has helped thousands of users navigate similar cancellations, and this guide puts you on the fastest path forward.
Your consumer rights in south africa
Before you cancel, understand what South African law guarantees you as a consumer of digital services.
The consumer protection act and your cooling-off period
The Consumer Protection Act (CPA), 2008, gives you powerful protections when you purchase goods or services online. For distance contracts (purchases made without face-to-face interaction), you have a 14-day cooling-off period from the date you conclude the agreement. This means you can cancel and request a full refund without penalty or explanation, provided the service hasn't been substantially used.
Digital services like Trustcheck fall under this protection if the vendor hasn't already provided the service in full. Since Trustcheck is a subscription platform accessed through your device, you have solid legal grounds to request a refund within 14 days of your first payment if the service doesn't meet your expectations. The CPA specifically protects consumers against unfair contract terms and non-compliance with your rights as a buyer.
Your legal position
You are entitled to cancel Trustcheck within 14 days of purchase and receive a full refund, provided you have not substantially used the service. If the company fails to honour this right, the National Consumer Commission (NCC) has statutory authority to investigate your complaint and enforce compliance.
What happens if Trustcheck refuses your cancellation
If Trustcheck or the app store denies your refund request unreasonably, you can escalate to the National Consumer Commission. The NCC investigates complaints about unfair contract terms, non-compliance with the CPA, and disputes with service providers. Document your cancellation request and any refusal in writing, then submit a complaint with supporting evidence to the NCC.
Keep screenshots of your subscription confirmation, your cancellation request (email or in-app message), and any response denying your refund. These form your evidence if you need to escalate to consumer protection authorities. The NCC's contact details are available at www.nccsa.org.za, and you can file a complaint online at no cost.
Cancellation methods: which platform did you use
Your cancellation route depends on how you subscribed to Trustcheck.
Identify your subscription source
Open the Trustcheck app on your device and check your account settings or billing information. You'll see which payment method is linked: Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or a credit card you entered directly on Trustcheck's website. Your cancellation method must match this source. If you're unsure, contact Trustcheck support directly with your email address and payment confirmation, and they'll confirm your subscription channel within one business day.
How to cancel Trustcheck on iPhone (iOS)
If you subscribed through Apple's App Store, follow these steps to cancel your subscription.
Step 1: open your apple app store settings
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
- Tap your Apple ID name or photo at the top of the screen.
- Select Subscription (or if you see "Media & Purchases" first, tap that, then scroll down to "Subscription").
Step 2: locate Trustcheck in your active subscriptions
- Find Trustcheck in your active subscriptions list.
- If you see multiple entries (for example, if you've subscribed to different apps), tap the one labelled Trustcheck to open its details.
- If Trustcheck doesn't appear here, it may already be cancelled, or you may have subscribed via Google Play or the Trustcheck website instead.
Step 3: tap cancel subscription
- Tap Cancel Subscription at the bottom of the screen.
- Apple will display a confirmation message explaining your access and refund status.
- Review this message carefully, then select the final confirmation button (usually "Confirm" or "Cancel Subscription").
Step 4: confirm apple's final prompt
- Confirm your cancellation by following Apple's on-screen instruction.
- You'll receive a notification: "Subscription cancelled." Your access continues until the end of your current billing cycle; you won't be charged again after that date.
- Apple will send a confirmation email to your Apple ID email address within minutes.
What happens after you cancel on iOS
Your subscription remains active and continues to function through the end of your current billing period (for example, if you're mid-month, you keep access until the last day of that month). Once that period expires, you lose access to Trustcheck's paid features. You won't be charged for any future billing cycles. If you paid annual upfront, contact Apple Support within 14 days to request a pro-rata refund for unused months.
How to cancel Trustcheck on android (Google play)
If you subscribed through Google Play Store, follow these steps to cancel your subscription.
Step 1: open your google play subscriptions
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
- Tap your profile icon in the top right corner.
- Select Payments and subscriptions, then tap Subscriptions.
Step 2: find and select Trustcheck
- Scroll through your active subscriptions and tap Trustcheck.
- If Trustcheck doesn't appear, it may already be cancelled or you subscribed via another method.
Step 3: tap cancel subscription
- Tap Cancel Subscription.
- Google Play will ask you to confirm your reason for cancelling (this is optional feedback, not required to proceed).
- Select the final "Cancel Subscription" button to confirm.
Step 4: receive your cancellation confirmation
- Google Play sends a confirmation email to your Google account email address.
- Your Trustcheck subscription is now cancelled, and you retain access until your current billing period ends.
- No further charges will be applied after that date.
What happens after you cancel on android
Your subscription remains active and charged through the end of your current billing period (for example, if you pay monthly, you keep access until the last day of the month in which you cancel). You lose access to Trustcheck's paid features once that period expires. You won't be charged again. If you subscribed for an annual plan, contact Google Play Support within 14 days to request a refund for the unused portion of your subscription.
How to cancel Trustcheck via direct website billing
If you subscribed directly on Trustcheck's website using a credit card (not through Apple or Google), follow these steps.
Step 1: log into your Trustcheck account
- Visit the Trustcheck website and log in using your email address and password.
- If you've forgotten your password, use the "Forgot password" link to reset it via email.
Step 2: navigate to account settings or billing
- Look for Account Settings, Billing, or Subscriptions in the menu (usually in the top right or in a settings sidebar).
- Tap or click on this section to open your billing details.
Step 3: locate your subscription and cancel
- Find your active Trustcheck subscription in the list.
- Look for a "Cancel," "Cancel subscription," or "Pause subscription" button next to your plan details.
- Click this button to initiate the cancellation process.
Step 4: confirm cancellation and check your inbox
- Confirm your cancellation when prompted.
- Trustcheck will send a confirmation email to your registered email address.
- Your subscription ends at the conclusion of your current billing cycle.
What if you can't find a cancel button
If the website doesn't display a visible cancellation option, contact Trustcheck support directly. Send an email from your registered account email address to their support team (check the Trustcheck website's "Contact Us" or "Support" page for the correct address). State clearly: "I wish to cancel my Trustcheck subscription effective immediately" and include your account email. Yafee recommends that you keep a copy of this email for your records. Trustcheck must respond within 5 business days with cancellation confirmation.
Refunds and your right to recover money
Your refund eligibility depends on how long you've had the subscription and whether you've used the service substantially.
14-day cooling-off refund
Under the Consumer Protection Act, you have a statutory right to cancel within 14 days of purchase and receive a full refund if you haven't substantially used the service. This applies regardless of whether you subscribed via Apple, Google Play, or the Trustcheck website. If you're within this 14-day window, submit your cancellation request immediately and explicitly state in your follow-up message: "I am exercising my 14-day cooling-off right under the Consumer Protection Act, 2008."
Requesting a refund after cancellation
After you've cancelled (via app store or website), submit a separate refund request. Contact Trustcheck support or the relevant app store with these details: your account email, the date of your subscription purchase, your payment confirmation number, and a statement that you have not substantially used the service. Yafee advises that you keep screenshots of your subscription confirmation and cancellation request. The app store or Trustcheck typically processes refunds within 5 to 10 business days.
If your refund is denied
If Trustcheck or the app store refuses your refund without reasonable justification, escalate your complaint to the National Consumer Commission. File a complaint online at www.nccsa.org.za or contact them at 0860 10 60 80. Include all email correspondence, screenshots, and your payment proof. The NCC has authority to order Trustcheck to refund your money if they find the denial breaches the CPA.
| Refund scenario | Your right | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Cancelled within 14 days of purchase and haven't used the service substantially | Full refund | Contact app store or Trustcheck support immediately; reference Consumer Protection Act cooling-off period |
| Cancelled after 14 days but service doesn't match description | Potential refund (must prove misrepresentation) | Document your complaint in writing; escalate to app store support or Trustcheck; then to NCC if refused |
| Cancelled after substantial use | No automatic refund | Request goodwill refund from Trustcheck; escalate if unreasonably refused |
| Duplicate charges or billing errors | Full refund of erroneous charges | Contact app store or Trustcheck immediately with proof; file NCC complaint if not resolved within 10 days |
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling
Cancelling is simple if you follow the correct steps, but a few missteps can delay your refund or leave you liable for unexpected charges. Here's what not to do.
Mistake 1: cancelling only the app, not the subscription
Deleting the Trustcheck app from your device does not cancel your subscription. Trustcheck will continue to charge you each month because the subscription agreement remains active. You must cancel the subscription itself via your app store settings or the Trustcheck website, as outlined in the steps above. Only after you've cancelled the subscription can you safely delete the app.
Mistake 2: failing to request a refund in writing
If you cancel and want a refund, don't assume the cancellation alone triggers one automatically. Yafee recommends that you submit a separate, written refund request (email works fine) within 14 days of purchase, clearly stating your cancellation date and the reason for your refund request. Keep the email confirmation or receipt. This creates a paper trail if you need to escalate to the app store or the NCC.
Mistake 3: ignoring your billing cycle end date
When you cancel via app store, your subscription remains active until the end of your billing cycle (your next renewal date). If you expected immediate access loss but you're still charged one more time, check your cancellation confirmation email. It will state the exact date your access ends. If you're charged after that date, contact the app store immediately to dispute the charge.
Mistake 4: not documenting your cancellation request
Screenshot your cancellation confirmation from the app store or Trustcheck website. If a refund dispute arises, you'll need proof that you cancelled on a specific date. Yafee advises that you also forward the confirmation email to yourself or print it as a backup.
After cancellation: what to expect
Once you've cancelled, your account doesn't simply vanish; here's what happens in the weeks after.
Access and functionality
Your Trustcheck account remains accessible with login credentials until the end of your billing cycle. You can still log in and view your subscription history, but you'll lose access to premium features (unlimited scans, advanced reports, etc.) once your current paid period ends. After that date, you'll see a prompt to upgrade if you try to use a premium feature.
Email communications
Trustcheck may send you "We miss you" emails or special offers to re-subscribe. You have the right to unsubscribe from marketing emails by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of each email or updating your notification preferences in your account settings.
Final refund timing
If you're entitled to a refund (within the 14-day cooling-off period, or due to a billing error), the app store or Trustcheck will process it within 5 to 10 business days. The refund appears as a credit to your original payment method (your credit card or bank account). Check your bank or card statement for the refund after this period. If the refund doesn't appear, contact the app store or Trustcheck support again with your confirmation email and bank statement screenshot.
Comparing Trustcheck to alternatives
Before you cancel, consider whether a different subscription management tool better suits your needs.
| Service | Cost (ZAR) | Key features | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Trustcheck | Limited free; paid from ~R40/month | Subscription scanning, monitoring, batch cancellation | Users wanting automated subscription tracking |
| Manual tracking (spreadsheet) | Free | Full control, no data sharing | Users with few subscriptions and time to manage manually |
| Banking app alerts | Free | Built-in transaction monitoring | Users who prefer to review subscriptions via their bank statements |
| Password manager (e.g., Bitwarden) | Free to ~R60/month | Stores subscription credentials and renewal dates | Users already using a password manager who want subscription notes in one place |
| Email filters and rules | Free (in Gmail, Outlook, etc.) | Automatically archive subscription confirmation emails to one folder | Users who prefer email-based subscription tracking |
Pricing: what you're paying for Trustcheck
Trustcheck's pricing varies by region and app store, but here's what South African users typically face.
| Plan | Cost (ZAR, approximate) | Billing cycle | Key features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | R0 | Ongoing | Limited scans per month; basic subscription list |
| Premium (recommended by some users) | R40-R80 | Monthly | Unlimited scans; subscription monitoring; batch cancellation requests |
| Annual plan | ~R400-R600 | Yearly | Same as premium; saves 20-30% vs. monthly billing |
Prices are set by the app store and Trustcheck and may vary based on promotions, your location, and currency fluctuations. Check your app store before subscribing to see the exact price for your region.
