Cancellation Webroot: Easy Method
What is Webroot
Webroot (an OpenText company) provides cloud‑based endpoint security and antivirus products for consumers and businesses. Its consumer offerings typically include device protection, phishing and ransomware defense, and identity/theft protection features delivered with a small local footprint and cloud‑based threat intelligence.
How to cancel Webroot
- If you bought your subscription directly from Webroot, sign in to your Webroot/OpenText account or contact Webroot customer support to request cancellation - cancellations for direct purchases must be done via Webroot. For annual subscriptions purchased directly, be aware they must be cancelled at least 7 days before expiry to avoid renewal.
- If you purchased through the Apple App Store, cancel the subscription inside your Apple ID subscriptions (App Store / iPhone / iPad subscription management). If you purchased through Google Play, cancel through your Google Play subscriptions. Do not rely on uninstalling the app to stop billing - uninstalling does not cancel the subscription.
- When you cancel, keep or request written confirmation (email or cancellation reference) and note the date; if a problem arises, you will need this documentation to dispute future charges.
What happens when you cancel
Cancellation stops future renewals according to how and when you cancel: month‑to‑month subscriptions stop future payments but remain active through the end of the current billing period. Annual subscriptions bought through app stores similarly remain active until the period end after cancellation. Your installed Webroot software will typically continue to function for the remainder of any paid period; uninstalling the app does not itself stop billing or remove account data.
Will I get a refund?
Refund rules depend on where you purchased the subscription. Monthly subscriptions bought via Apple or Google Play are not eligible for refunds through those platforms. Annual subscriptions purchased through app stores will stop future charges when cancelled but do not generally receive refunds for the current paid period. For direct Webroot purchases, published Canadian documentation does not clearly confirm a standard refund window; some third‑party sources claim a 60‑day money‑back guarantee, but that claim is not verifiable on Webroot’s official Canadian materials. If you believe you are entitled to a refund, contact the vendor you purchased from and retain documentation of the request.
Webroot plans and pricing
| Plan | Typical Billing Options | Price (Canada) |
|---|---|---|
| Consumer antivirus / device protection | Monthly or Annual | Varies |
| Internet Security / Multi‑device | Annual | Varies |
| Identity / Privacy add‑ons | Annual | Varies |
Your consumer rights in Canada
Under Canadian consumer protection frameworks, certain online and recurring services may have a short cooling‑off period; verified summaries note a general 2‑day cooling‑off period for some online recurring services, but statutory application varies by province and by the specific purchase circumstances. Webroot’s public materials for Canada do not explicitly list statutory rights or a clear refund/cancellation policy for all purchase channels, which can make asserting rights harder without clear documentation. If you experience unauthorized charges or unresolved billing after documented cancellation, you may escalate the matter to provincial consumer protection agencies, the Competition Bureau for potentially unfair practices, or file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau (BBB).
Customer experiences
Public reviews are mixed. Some users report Webroot is affordable, lightweight, cloud‑based and “just works,” with positive Canadian feedback noting quick ransomware detection and increased perceived security confidence. Conversely, many complaints focus on billing and cancellation difficulties - examples include trouble cancelling via website or app, unexpected auto‑renewals, unauthorized charges, failed refund attempts, and instances where customers report continuing charges after they believe they cancelled. BBB records include complaints about double billing, inability to turn off auto‑renew, and slow or non‑existent refund responses.
Documentation checklist
- Purchase receipt or order confirmation (date, payment method, invoice number if available)
- Account email address and subscription ID or username
- Screenshots or PDFs of subscription pages, cancellation screens, and any error messages
- Written confirmation of cancellation (email, chat transcript, or reference number)
- Bank or card statements showing the charge(s) you are disputing
Common mistakes
A frequent mistake is assuming uninstalling the Webroot app cancels the subscription - this does not stop recurring billing. Another common error is not checking where the subscription was purchased: if it was bought through Apple or Google, cancellation must be performed in those stores rather than via Webroot’s site. People sometimes attempt refunds without invoice numbers or with incomplete documentation; missing or incorrect invoice details can delay or prevent resolution. Finally, waiting until after an automatic renewal posts without early cancellation increases the chance a refund will be refused for the already‑used period.
Comparative recap
| Method | Refund | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| Purchased via Webroot (direct) | Unclear; third‑party claims exist of a 60‑day money‑back window but not verifiable in official Canadian materials | Medium to High (customer reports of cancellation or refund difficulties) |
| Apple App Store | No refunds for monthly subscriptions; annual cancellations stop future charges but refunds not typically provided | Low (cancel via Apple ID subscription settings) |
| Google Play Store | No refunds for monthly subscriptions; annual cancellations stop future charges but refunds not typically provided | Low (cancel via Google Play subscriptions) |
| Third‑party resellers / bundled purchases | Varies by reseller; check reseller policy | High (policies and support channels vary) |
After cancelling
After you cancel, keep the cancellation confirmation, watch your bank and card statements for any continued charges, and follow up immediately if you see unauthorized billing. If the vendor (Webroot, Apple, Google, or a reseller) does not resolve an improper charge, escalate with your bank or card issuer to dispute the transaction and file complaints with provincial consumer protection agencies or the BBB if needed. For support and next steps, use official vendor support pages and the applicable app store support pages; retain all communications and timestamps to strengthen any dispute.
