cancellation Starhub: Easy Method
What is StarHub
Overview
StarHub is a Singapore-based telecommunications provider offering mobile, broadband, TV and bundled services for residential and business customers.
It operates under Singapore contracts and service terms; StarHub also appears in direct carrier billing agreements with app stores for digital purchases.
Where it applies
StarHub’s retail services are primarily for Singapore customers and billed in SGD under StarHub T&Cs.
If you are in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and have a StarHub charge or subscription, the purchase may be cross-border (e.g., app-store billing) or tied to a third-party service.
How to cancel StarHub
Cancel subscriptions billed via Apple App Store
- Open your Apple ID account and manage subscriptions there.
- Sign in at Apple Support - subscriptions and cancel the subscription from your Apple ID.
- StarHub does not manage or cancel App Store subscriptions that use Direct Carrier Billing; Apple does.
Cancel subscriptions billed via Google Play and StarHub services
- For Google Play billing, go to Google Wallet or the Google Play app and cancel the subscription there.
- For StarHub postpaid/mobile/broadband services, cancel via StarHub contact methods: phone, StarHub app or website, or written request per StarHub contract terms.
- Prefer calling StarHub’s General Service Hotline or using the official contact page for fastest assistance: StarHub personal.
What happens when you cancel
Service access and renewal
If you cancel an app-store subscription, access usually remains until the end of the current billing period as controlled by Apple or Google.
For StarHub contracts, termination follows your service agreement and may end immediately or at the next billing date depending on terms.
Data, equipment and account status
Cancelled broadband or TV services may lose access to content, recordings and stored settings; ask for data retention options before cancelling.
If you have rented or purchased StarHub equipment, follow the return procedure to avoid charges for unreturned hardware.
Will I get a refund?
Direct Carrier Billing (App Store / Google Play)
- StarHub does not provide refunds for charges made via Direct Carrier Billing.
- To request refunds for those purchases, contact Apple or Google within their refund windows and procedures.
Other non-refundable items and exceptions
- Google Play typically offers a 2-hour automatic refund window for app purchases; after that you must contact the app developer or Google support.
- Online prepaid top-ups cannot be cancelled or refunded once ordered and accepted by StarHub.
- Device pre-orders (example: device pre-order payments) are generally non-refundable once accepted by StarHub per their pre-order T&Cs.

Your consumer rights in United Arab Emirates
Applicable law and jurisdiction
UAE consumers are protected by UAE Consumer Protection Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 24 of 2006) which requires clear contractual terms and rights to redress.
However, cross-border purchases (services headquartered in another jurisdiction) may fall under the seller’s jurisdiction or the app-store’s terms.
Practical options in UAE
- For app-store refunds, follow Apple/Google procedures regardless of your country.
- If the service was offered or delivered in the UAE, you may seek help via the UAE government consumer portal: UAE Consumer Protection.
- Keep written records and escalate to UAE authorities if the merchant refuses to resolve a legitimate local complaint.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
Some customers report excellent individual service experiences, citing helpful and effective support in isolated cases.
These positive reports are less frequent but indicate good outcomes are possible with attentive staff.
Common complaints
Public reviews frequently cite billing errors, long resolution times, denied refunds, technical glitches (eSIM, authentication) and difficulties cancelling services.
Complaints from review platforms and forums include disputed charges, equipment return problems and inconsistent support responses.
Documentation checklist
Before you request cancellation
- Account number, service ID and exact product name or subscription ID.
- Copies of your contract, recent bills, and proof of payments (bank/credit card statements).
- Screenshots of the subscription entry in App Store or Google Play if billed via Direct Carrier Billing.
When you submit the cancellation
- Reference number for the cancellation request and name of the agent handling it.
- Return receipts or tracking numbers for any equipment sent back.
- Written confirmation of termination and any final billing statement.
Common mistakes
Assuming app-store purchases are handled by StarHub
Many consumers try to cancel App Store or Google Play subscriptions through StarHub and are told those must be managed via the app stores.
Always check whether the charge is billed by StarHub or by Apple/Google to use the correct cancellation route.
Not getting written confirmation
Users sometimes accept verbal confirmation and later find billing continued; always request and save written confirmation or a reference number.
Also check your card or carrier bill in the following cycle to confirm the stop of charges.
