Cancellation service #1 in Canada
RiverTV is a Canadian streaming service that offers live television and on‑demand channels across a range of packages and add‑ons. It operates direct subscription billing on rivertv.ca and also distributes subscriptions through authorized distributors such as the Apple App Store and Google Play.
If you cancel a direct RiverTV subscription on the website, auto‑renewal is turned off and your access typically continues until the end of the current billing period. RiverTV states it does not prorate or issue partial refunds for periods already paid - except where their Terms provide otherwise for Québec residents.
If your subscription was billed by an authorized distributor (Apple or Google), the cancellation and end‑of‑service timing will be governed by that distributor’s subscription process; RiverTV’s control over those subscriptions is limited. Your RiverTV account (profile, settings) generally remains active for sign‑in, but streaming access ends when the paid period or distributor‑managed subscription ends.
RiverTV’s Terms of Service say that, unless required by law, there are no refunds or credits once a subscription is activated: “all Subscription Content sales are final: there are no refunds, exchanges or credits for any reason.” For most customers outside Québec this means refunds are not provided under RiverTV’s stated policy.
Québec residents have a specific exception in RiverTV’s Terms: cancellation via RiverTV (not via an Authorized Distributor) is effective on notification and RiverTV indicates it will refund the unused portion of the current subscription period. Separately, Canadian federal or provincial consumer protection laws may provide remedies in some circumstances (for example, where there is misrepresentation or deceptive practices).

RiverTV’s Terms create the base refund/cancellation rules the company will follow, but consumer rights under provincial and federal law can still apply. Québec residents have a specific contractual exception in RiverTV’s Terms that provides an immediate cancellation via RiverTV and a refund for the unused portion of the period when cancelled directly with the service.
Outside Québec, RiverTV’s “all sales final” policy generally means no refunds are provided by the service, but consumers may have remedies under provincial consumer protection statutes or misleading‑advertising rules if the service misrepresented material facts (e.g., free‑trial terms, billing practices). Purchases made through Apple or Google are also governed by those distributors’ terms and applicable consumer protections.
Public reviews are mixed. Some customers praise RiverTV for carrying sought‑after channels and for its channel lineup. However, many complaints appear on Trustpilot, Reddit, and the BBB about difficulty cancelling free trials, continuing billing after cancellation, app instability and freezing, and limited or slow customer support. These recurring themes suggest it is important to keep clear documentation of cancellation attempts and billing charges.
Common errors include cancelling the wrong subscription channel (for example cancelling on RiverTV when the billing is handled by Apple or Google), waiting until after the free trial ends to cancel, and failing to record or save a cancellation confirmation. Another frequent mistake is assuming a refund will be issued automatically - RiverTV’s published terms decline refunds except where required by law or their Québec provision.
Examples: a user who signs up via iOS and attempts to cancel through rivertv.ca may still be billed because the App Store controls that subscription; a user who does not capture a cancellation confirmation email may lack proof if charges continue.
| Method | Refund | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| Web (direct via RiverTV) | No refunds under RiverTV Terms (refund for unused portion applies if you are in Québec and cancelled directly) | Easy - cancel in Account settings, but keep confirmation |
| Apple App Store (iOS) | Refunds handled under Apple’s policies, not RiverTV’s; RiverTV cannot directly refund App Store charges | Medium - cancel via Apple subscription settings |
| Google Play | Refunds handled under Google Play’s policies, not RiverTV’s; contact Google for disputes | Medium - cancel via Google Play subscriptions |
| Registered mail / formal written notice to RiverTV | Same substantive policy (no refunds outside Québec), but provides documented proof of notice for escalation | Hard - requires extra steps but useful if disputing charges |
After you cancel, check that auto‑renew has been turned off in your RiverTV account or in your Apple/Google subscription settings. Keep screenshots or a copy of any cancellation confirmation and monitor your bank or card statements for further charges. If billing continues after cancellation, contact RiverTV support with your documentation, then contact the distributor (Apple/Google) or your card issuer to dispute the charge if needed.
