Cancellation Digicel: Easy Method

What is Digicel

Digicel is a telecommunications provider that offers mobile, prepaid top‑up services, and fixed services such as fibre/broadband, TV and phone across multiple markets. In some markets Digicel operates an online store for devices and accessories and runs Digicel+ packages (broadband/TV/phone) under separate terms and conditions.

How to cancel Digicel

The exact cancellation path depends on what you are cancelling (an online order, a prepaid/phone service, or Digicel+ broadband/TV/phone). Online orders can often be cancelled before they are dispatched via your E‑Store account or by the local market contact; once an order is dispatched it cannot be cancelled. For contracted services, Digicel’s terms allow specific remedies where the company makes a materially adverse change, and Digicel+ services commonly include a 14‑day cooling‑off period followed by a 30‑day notice requirement. Use the steps below as a practical sequence to cancel.

• Locate your account/order: note account number, order number, date of purchase, and dispatch/tracking status.
• If it is an online order that has not shipped, cancel in your E‑Store account using the Cancel button or contact the market support email immediately.
• If you are within a 14‑day cooling‑off period for Digicel+ Fibre/Broadband/TV/Phone, request cancellation in writing and ask for confirmation of any refundable amounts and outstanding equipment/installation charges.
• If Digicel made a materially adverse change during a minimum service commitment, notify Digicel in writing that you are cancelling under the 14‑day remedy in the terms and request confirmation of no early termination fee.
• If you cannot reach support or the cancellation is disputed, send a registered letter (see Address section) and keep proof of delivery; retain screenshots, emails and receipts for escalation.

What happens when you cancel

When cancellation is accepted, your access to service will end according to the product rules: for online orders cancellation before dispatch prevents shipment; for Digicel+ services cancelled within the cooling‑off period disconnection occurs and you remain liable for equipment, installation and pro‑rata service charges. After a required notice period (commonly 30 days for Digicel+), service may continue until the end of that notice, with charges billed to that date. Prepaid accounts typically lose any remaining credit when the service ends unless specific refund rules apply.

Will I get a refund?

If you cancel an online order before it is dispatched Digicel refunds the purchase to the original payment method; timing depends on your bank or card provider. Returned items that are unused, in original undamaged packaging may be exchanged or refunded within seven days at designated pickup locations with proof of purchase. For Digicel+ and similar services cancelled within the 14‑day cooling‑off period, refunds are possible but Digicel will normally deduct equipment costs, installation fees and prorated service charges; beyond the cooling‑off window standard early termination or notice charges apply. Note that some bundles (for example orders combined with prepaid SIMs) may be non‑cancelable and therefore non‑refundable - always confirm the product terms when you buy.

Your consumer rights in Canada

Canadian consumers have protections under federal and provincial consumer laws and telecommunications guidance. If a provider makes a materially adverse change to your service during a minimum commitment, Digicel’s own terms provide a 14‑day cancellation right without an early termination fee; this aligns with the principle that materially adverse changes should allow a penalty‑free exit. For fixed telecom services there are CRTC and provincial rules that can affect cooling‑off periods and disclosure requirements - if you believe Digicel’s policy conflicts with Canadian statutory rights, request written confirmation from Digicel, keep records, and consider contacting the CRTC or your provincial consumer protection office for guidance.

Customer experiences

Customer feedback is mixed. Users of Digicel’s international top‑up services often praise ease‑of‑use, quick and reliable top‑ups and give high Trustpilot scores for that specific service. Conversely, complaints about Digicel Group’s broader services include difficulty cancelling accounts, slow or non‑existent reimbursement after closure, technicians missing appointments, and unresponsive customer support. These divergent experiences underline the importance of keeping clear records and escalating in writing if informal cancellation attempts fail.

Documentation checklist

• Account number and registered account holder name
• Order number, receipt or proof of purchase and payment method
• Dispatch/tracking information (for online orders)
• Copy of the contract or terms (showing minimum term/cooling‑off clause)
• Photos of unopened/returned items and original packaging if returning goods
• All emails, chat transcripts and call logs with Digicel support
• Proof of registered mail or delivery receipt if you send written cancellation

Common mistakes

Consumers commonly assume every purchase can be cancelled after shipment; with Digicel online orders you must cancel before dispatch or the order normally cannot be stopped. Another error is not checking whether a bundle includes a prepaid SIM or promotional element that is marked non‑cancelable. Many disputes arise because customers fail to obtain written confirmation of cancellation or neglect to keep transaction receipts and tracking numbers - without that paperwork it is harder to secure refunds or prove compliance with deadlines. Finally, relying solely on phone calls rather than written requests (email or registered mail) reduces the traceability of your cancellation request.

Comparative recap

After cancelling

After you cancel, obtain and save written confirmation (email or letter) that details the effective cancellation date and any refunds or outstanding charges. If Digicel does not confirm or disputes the cancellation, escalate to a written registered delivery and keep proof of posting. For policy details consult Digicel’s store and service terms: Digicel Shop help, Shop terms and returns, and Digicel+ fibre/broadband/TV/phone terms. If you need external assistance, consider contacting the CRTC at https://crtc.gc.ca or your provincial consumer protection office.
