Cancellation service #1 in Canada
Speechify is a text‑to‑speech service and app that converts written content into spoken audio using natural and robotic voices, offering features such as high‑quality voices, multi‑language support, offline downloads, and AI tools for summaries and audio generation. It is available on iOS, Android, and the web and is distributed through Speechify’s site as well as the Apple App Store and Google Play.
When you cancel a paid Speechify subscription, automatic renewal is stopped but you retain access to paid features for the remainder of the paid billing period. Cancellation does not necessarily delete your account or content; account data and project files may remain associated with your account unless you request deletion via Speechify’s account settings or support. If you purchased through Apple or Google, cancellation is handled by the store and the subscription will remain active until that store’s billing period ends.
Speechify’s published refund policy is restrictive. Refunds from Speechify directly are issued only if requested within 7 days of subscription and only under limited conditions such as fraudulent chargers, account takeover, or minimal usage (for annual plans: ≤ 500 HD words of TTS, ≤ 2 minutes of AI Studio use, or no audiobook credits used). Subscriptions bought through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store are generally non‑refundable via Speechify and are governed by the store’s refund policies. Speechify does not offer partial or pro‑rated refunds for partial use of a subscription term. For details see Speechify’s refund policy: speechify.com/refund-policy.
| Plan | Price (approx.) | Period | Features |

| Premium - Monthly | approx. C$38.50/month | Monthly | 200+ high‑quality voices, 60+ languages, offline MP3 download, up to 5× speed, advanced skipping & importing, AI Summaries & Chats |
| Premium - Annual | approx. C$184.00/year (≈ C$15.30/month) | Annual (billed yearly) | Same features as Monthly at a discounted annual rate |
Canadian consumer protection law requires that digital subscription cancellations be honoured and provides remedies where practices are deceptive or unfair. While Speechify’s policies state limited refunds and point customers buying through app stores to Apple or Google, Canadian consumers may have additional rights. If you believe a cancellation or refund practice was misleading or that you were improperly charged, document the problem and consider escalating to your provincial consumer protection agency, filing a complaint with the payment provider (credit card/bank), or seeking guidance from a consumer rights organization.
Reviews are mixed. Many users praise Speechify’s customer service and rate the company highly on platforms like Trustpilot (Speechify has an “Excellent” rating, ~4.6/5 across thousands of reviews), with agents noted for helpful, polite, and prompt billing and cancellation support. At the same time, complaints exist about unexpected charges after free trials, difficulty locating cancellation steps, perceived unclear trial‑to‑subscription transitions, and technical problems such as upload failures, voice quality issues, or buggy features. Community posts and reviews reflect both strong satisfaction and persistent customer support or billing frustrations. Sources: Trustpilot, Reddit examples, and Speechify’s own summary of reviews: speechify.com/news.
Common errors include cancelling only inside the mobile app (instead of through the App Store or Google Play), not saving or screenshotting a cancellation confirmation, assuming cancelling entitles you to a pro‑rated refund, and waiting too long to request a refund beyond the 7‑day window Speechify cites. Example: a user cancels an iOS subscription but doesn’t cancel via their Apple ID subscriptions page - billing continues because the store controls the subscription.
| Method | Refund | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| App Store (iOS) | Refunds governed by Apple; Speechify does not refund App Store purchases | Moderate - cancel via Apple ID subscriptions; refund requests go to Apple |
| Google Play (Android) | Refunds governed by Google Play; Speechify does not refund Play Store purchases | Moderate - cancel via Play Store subscriptions; refunds handled by Google |
| Web (Direct via Speechify) | Limited refunds possible within 7 days and under strict conditions; no partial prorated refunds | Easy to cancel; refund requests are limited and may require support review |
After you cancel, keep copies of your cancellation confirmation and monitor your bank or card statement for any further charges. If a charge appears after cancellation, first contact Speechify support with your documentation; if that does not resolve the issue, you can request a refund or dispute the charge through Apple or Google (for store purchases) or through your payment provider.
