Cancellation service #1 in Canada
Hayu is a subscription streaming service focused on reality television and related content. It offers ad‑free access to current and back‑catalog reality shows, available via hayu.com and through platform partners such as the Apple App Store, Google Play, Amazon Prime Video Channels and some carrier bundles in Canada.
Cancelling stops the automatic renewal of your subscription. You will normally retain access to Hayu for the remainder of the paid billing period (for example, until the end of the month or until a prepaid term expires). Hayu generally preserves your account information and viewing history, but retention of data and when it is removed varies by provider and is governed by Hayu’s terms and the platform you used to subscribe.
Hayu commonly offers a free trial (about seven days) that you can cancel before it ends to avoid charges. Beyond that, Hayu’s stated practice is that cancelling stops future renewals but does not automatically produce refunds for charges already billed. Users have reported that refunds are not routinely given. If you believe you were charged in error, the recommended route is to request a refund from the platform where you subscribed (Apple, Google Play, Amazon) or to contact Hayu web support if you subscribed directly; success is not guaranteed and outcomes vary.

Canadian consumer protection does not automatically grant a 14‑day statutory right to cancel or receive a refund for digital streaming services unless the provider’s terms or a platform’s policy explicitly allow one. Hayu does not advertise a statutory refund right for post‑payment cancellations. If you need a refund or have an unauthorized charge, contact the platform where you subscribed (Apple, Google Play, Amazon) or Hayu web support, keep records of your cancellation and charges, and consider contacting your bank or card issuer to dispute unauthorized transactions. For persistent issues you can also consult provincial consumer protection offices for guidance.
Experiences vary. Some users report reliable playback and that Hayu preserves watch progress, providing a straightforward streaming experience. Other users report frequent technical problems (crashes, buffering and error codes), difficulty navigating the app, problems cancelling or being billed after cancelling, and poor customer service or unsuccessful refund requests. These mixed reports suggest outcomes depend on how you subscribed, the platform you use, and case‑by‑case support responses.
Common issues include cancelling too close to the renewal time (for example missing the App Store’s 24‑hour guideline and still getting charged), assuming that cancelling will automatically create a refund for the last charge, or cancelling on the Hayu site when the subscription was purchased through Apple, Google Play, Amazon or a carrier - each must be cancelled via the original point of purchase. Not keeping records of cancellation attempts and receipts makes it harder to resolve billing disputes.
| Method | Refund | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| Web (direct via hayu.com) | No - cancellation stops renewal; refunds are unlikely and handled case‑by‑case | High (users report billing disputes and mixed support responses) |
| Apple App Store (iOS) | Request via Apple; possible but not guaranteed | Low (easy to cancel in Settings; must allow 24+ hours before renewal) |
| Google Play (Android) | Request via Google Play; possible but not guaranteed | Low (cancellation is straightforward via Play Store) |
| Amazon Prime Video Channels / TV provider | Request via the provider; possible but not guaranteed | Medium (process depends on the provider’s interface and policies) |
After you cancel, save any confirmation emails or on‑screen cancellation receipts. If you need support or want to request a refund, contact the platform you used to subscribe first (Apple/Google/Amazon) or Hayu web support if you subscribed directly.

If charges are unauthorized or unresolved, contact your bank or card issuer and consider contacting provincial consumer protection services for next steps.
