Cancellation Country Living: Easy Method

What is Country Living

Country Living is a lifestyle magazine covering home, garden, cooking, crafts and country-inspired living. It is offered in print and digital formats and, depending on where you subscribe, as single issues, short-term digital plans, or ongoing auto-renewing subscriptions (including a Country Living All Access digital option).

How to cancel Country Living

• App Store (iOS): Open your Apple ID account on your iPhone/iPad or via Apple's subscriptions support, go to Subscriptions, find Country Living and turn off Auto-Renew at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You cannot cancel the current active period through Apple once it has begun; disabling auto-renew prevents the next charge. If you are on a free trial, cancel during the trial to avoid charges.
• Web (Country Living All Access): Contact Country Living customer service to request cancellation for All Access web/digital subscriptions. The subscription is continuous and auto-renewing; cancelling stops future renewals but you retain access until the end of the current term.
• Print subscription (mail/web): Log in to your account on the Country Living subscription site and cancel from your subscription management page, or write the word “cancel” on your invoice and follow the invoice mailing instructions. You may also contact customer service to cancel Continuous Service (auto-renew) or a print subscription.

What happens when you cancel

When you cancel an auto-renewing digital or print subscription, future renewals are stopped but access typically continues until the end of the paid period. For Country Living All Access purchased via the web, payments are non-refundable and you can use the service through the paid term. For App Store purchases, disabling auto-renew prevents the next billing cycle but does not terminate the active period already paid for via Apple. For print subscriptions cancelled through Country Living, any refund due is based on remaining issues not yet mailed.

Will I get a refund?

Refund policies differ by purchase method. App Store (iTunes) subscriptions are governed by Apple; the publisher does not provide refunds for in-app/App Store purchases and Apple generally handles refund requests. Country Living’s All Access web subscriptions are described in their materials as non-refundable; canceling stops future payments but you keep access for the remainder of the term. For print subscriptions, Country Living states that a refund will be issued for remaining issues that have not yet been mailed after cancellation. If you cancelled a free trial before it ended, you will avoid being charged for the paid subscription.

Your consumer rights in Canada

Country Living’s official materials do not explicitly state a Canadian statutory cooling-off or 14-day right of withdrawal. Canadian consumer protection laws vary by province and by the type of purchase (digital vs. physical goods), and statutory rights may apply independently of a publisher’s stated policy. If you believe you are entitled to a remedy under Canadian law (for example, a misrepresented subscription or an unauthorized charge), consider contacting your payment provider or card issuer, and consult federal or provincial consumer protection offices for guidance. This page does not constitute legal advice.

Customer experiences

Reported user experiences include frequent complaints about difficulty cancelling subscriptions - some customers find online cancellation confusing or impossible and report slow or unresponsive customer service. Other complaints involve missed deliveries and delays resolving subscription or delivery issues. Public feedback suggests a pattern of frustration for users who need help cancelling, even though the publisher’s stated cancellation options include online account management and customer service assistance.

Documentation checklist

• Account email and username used for the subscription
• Subscription ID, order number or confirmation email
• Payment method details and transaction date (last charge)
• Screenshots of subscription settings (showing auto-renew on/off) or the App Store subscription entry
• Invoice copy (mark “cancel” if mailing) or proof of cancellation request and any confirmation emails

Common mistakes

Avoid assuming all cancellations follow the same process: App Store subscriptions must be managed through your Apple account, not the publisher’s site. Many customers expect immediate refunds when a subscription is cancelled; for web All Access subscriptions Country Living states payments are non-refundable and access remains until the term ends. Another common error is waiting until hours before renewal - App Store auto-renew must be turned off at least 24 hours before the period ends to prevent the next charge. Finally, not keeping a copy of cancellation confirmations or invoice notes removes evidence you may need if a dispute arises.

Comparative recap

After cancelling

Keep copies of all cancellation confirmations, invoices and any correspondence. If you purchased through Apple, visit Apple's manage subscriptions page for instructions and to request any Apple-side support or refunds. For publisher-managed subscriptions, use Country Living’s subscription or customer service pages (for example, their subscription landing or customer service contacts) to confirm cancellation and to request receipts or pro-rated refunds where applicable. If you encounter unresponsive support or unauthorized charges, contact your bank or card issuer and consider filing a complaint with provincial consumer protection authorities; for federal guidance see Government of Canada consumer protection. Retain all documentation in case you need to escalate.
