Cancellation Ranger Rick: Easy Method
What is Ranger Rick
Ranger Rick is a print children’s nature magazine published by the National Wildlife Federation, aimed at encouraging outdoor exploration and wildlife education. Editions include Ranger Rick (older children), Ranger Rick Jr. (ages 4 - 7), and Ranger Rick Cub (ages 0 - 4), each delivered as a regular printed magazine on an annual-subscription basis.
How to cancel Ranger Rick
- Gather subscription details (subscriber name, mailing address, account or customer number if available, and last payment date).
- Write a brief cancellation letter stating you want to cancel the subscription and stop automatic renewal, include the subscriber details, sign and date it, and request confirmation of cancellation in writing.
- Send the cancellation letter by registered/trackable mail to the publisher’s P.O. Box (see Address section below) so you have proof of delivery; keep a copy of the letter and the postal receipt. Allow 2 - 6 weeks for processing and follow up if you do not receive confirmation.
- If money was charged after you requested cancellation, contact your credit card issuer or bank to dispute unauthorized or incorrect charges and provide your cancellation proof.
What happens when you cancel
When your cancellation is processed, automatic renewal should be stopped so you will not be billed for the next subscription period. For print subscriptions already paid through the current term, you will typically continue to receive issues included in that paid period; cancelling generally prevents future renewals rather than removing issues already paid for. The publisher may retain basic account information for record-keeping and billing history in accordance with their privacy policy.
Will I get a refund?
Refund availability depends on the National Wildlife Federation’s subscription policy and the timing of your cancellation. Because subscriptions are sold as annual plans, publishers commonly do not offer full refunds for unused portions after a term begins, but exceptions can exist for billing errors, duplicate charges, or unauthorized renewals. If you believe you were charged incorrectly or fraudulently, contact the issuer of your payment card and the publisher with your proof of cancellation and receipts to request a refund or charge reversal.

Your consumer rights in Canada
Canadian consumers have rights when dealing with cross-border purchases and recurring billing. If you are billed without authorization you can dispute the charge with your credit card company or bank and request a reversal. Provincial consumer protection laws vary, but many provinces require clear disclosure of automatic renewal terms; if those terms were not made clear, you may have additional remedies. For persistent problems you can contact your provincial consumer protection office or the federal Office of Consumer Affairs for guidance, and consider filing a complaint or using small claims court as a last resort.
Customer experiences
Customer reports are mixed: many subscribers cancel successfully by sending a dated, signed letter and receiving confirmation within a few weeks, while others report delays or the need to supply proof of registered delivery. Common praise notes clear printed content and reasonable price; common complaints relate to automated renewals and slow response times when requesting refunds or confirmations. Keeping a record of all communications tends to make resolution easier.
Documentation checklist
- Subscriber name and mailing address as on the subscription
- Copy of subscription confirmation or recent billing statement showing the charge
- Last payment date and payment method used
- Signed, dated cancellation letter and a copy for your records
- Proof of mailing/delivery (registered mail receipt or tracking number) and any correspondence with the publisher
Common mistakes
Common mistakes include sending an unsigned or incomplete cancellation request, using ordinary untracked mail (which leaves no proof of delivery), waiting until after the automatic renewal charge posts, and not including sufficient subscriber details so the publisher cannot identify your account. Some people assume calling customer service or emailing a general contact address is sufficient when the publisher’s process requires a mailed, signed request; failing to keep copies and tracking numbers also weakens your position if a dispute arises.
Comparative recap
| Method | Refund | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| Registered/trackable mail to P.O. Box | Possible depending on timing and policy; strongest proof for disputes | Low - Medium |
| Email or phone (if available) | Varies by publisher response; may be accepted but harder to prove | Medium - High |
| Bank/credit card dispute | Possible for unauthorized or billing errors; depends on issuer | Medium |
After cancelling
After you send your cancellation, wait for written confirmation and keep that confirmation with your proof of mailing. If you do not receive a response within a few weeks, follow up with your bank or credit card issuer if new charges appear. For additional guidance or to check policies, consult the publisher’s subscription pages and consumer protection resources in Canada. If a refund is needed for an unauthorized or incorrect charge, contact your payment provider promptly and provide the documentation listed above.
