What is Spyfly
Quick description
Spyfly is a subscription-based online service that provides people-search and public-records reports. It aggregates contact details and background information from public sources for individual searches.
Primary uses
Users typically use Spyfly to find contact information, verify identities, or obtain limited background details. It is sold as a research tool rather than a certified background-check product.
How to cancel Spyfly
Cancel by phone
- Call Spyfly customer service at 1-800-831-9235. Alternate numbers listed are 1-800-301-5816 and 1-800-349-9058.
- When you call, state you want to cancel the subscription and provide your account details (email, username, last 4 of card used).
Cancel by email and app-store subscriptions
- Send an email to [email protected] requesting cancellation and include your account details and any trial information.
- If you subscribed via the App Store or Google Play, cancel the subscription in your Apple or Google account settings - Spyfly support cannot cancel store-managed subscriptions for you.
What happens when you cancel
Access after cancellation
Access typically continues until the end of your current paid period. If you cancel during a paid month, you will usually retain access for that month unless otherwise stated.
Renewal and account data
Automatic renewals stop after a successful cancellation via the required method. Your account and search history may remain on Spyfly systems per their data retention practices.
Will I get a refund?
Official refund policy
Spyfly's stated policy is that it does not provide general refunds. Refunds are not guaranteed under standard terms of use.
Exceptions and trial charges
- In rare cases, Spyfly may offer a discretionary refund (for example, if requested information cannot be found), but this is not assured.
- If you do a 7-day $1 or $2 trial and fail to cancel before it ends, the service may auto-charge the monthly fee (~$29.97). You must contact support to request any refund for such charges.

Your consumer rights in India
How Indian rules apply
For App Store or Google Play subscriptions, Indian users can cancel via their store account settings. Store-managed subscriptions are governed by Apple/Google refund and cancellation rules.
Web subscriptions and remedies
- There is generally no statutory 14-day cooling-off period for delivered digital services unless explicitly provided.
- Spyfly does not advertise a 14-day refund window beyond the stated 7-day trial; refunds follow company policy and are discretionary.
- Keep records of cancellation requests. If charged despite cancellation, you can request a bank chargeback or file a complaint with local consumer forums citing unfair practices.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
- Some users report satisfactory reports for the price, noting acceptable value for low-cost trials.
- Certain review aggregators list positive reviews and an overall trust rating in some samples, though resolution rates vary.
Negative feedback
- Many reviewers report unexpected recurring charges, difficulty cancelling, and poor complaint resolution.
- Complaints include incomplete or inaccurate background information and limited refund support.
Documentation checklist
What to prepare before contacting support
- Account email/username and any order or invoice numbers.
- Last four digits of the payment card used and transaction dates for charges you dispute.
Proof and follow-up
- Keep copies of sent cancellation emails and note call times and agent names for phone cancellations.
- Record screenshots of account subscription pages and trial start/end dates when possible.
Common mistakes
Assuming store cancellation was automatic
Users often assume emailing Spyfly will cancel an App Store or Google Play subscription. That does not stop store-managed renewals.
Missing the trial cutoff
Failing to cancel before the 7-day trial ends is a frequent cause of unexpected monthly charges. Don’t rely on support to reverse auto-renewals - request cancellation before the trial expires.
