Cancel BetterHelp: Complete Guide
What is BetterHelp
Service overview
BetterHelp is an online counselling and therapy platform that connects users with licensed therapists for messaging, live sessions, and digital support tools.
The service runs on a recurring subscription model billed in multi-week cycles and is accessible via web and mobile apps.
Who it is for
BetterHelp is aimed at people seeking remote, flexible mental health support without visiting a clinic in person.
Availability of therapists, features, and pricing can vary by region and by how the subscription is purchased (direct vs. app store).
How to cancel BetterHelp
Cancel via the BetterHelp website (web)
- Log in to your BetterHelp account on the website.
- Go to Menu → My Account → Payment Settings → Quit therapy.
- Follow on-screen prompts to confirm cancellation.
Cancel if purchased through App Store or Google Play
- If you subscribed via Apple App Store or Google Play, you must cancel directly in that third-party store.
- Do not attempt to cancel app-store subscriptions only via the BetterHelp website; the store manages billing and renewals.
Additional cancellation options and support
- After cancelling, you can optionally request erasure of personal data through Personal Information → Request Erasure in your account.
- If you have trouble, contact BetterHelp customer service (for example via contact@betterhelp.com) for assistance.
What happens when you cancel
Access after cancellation
Cancellations take effect at the end of your current billing period, so you retain access until that cycle ends.
Renewal and billing
You must cancel before the next renewal date to avoid being billed for the following cycle.
Data and account status
You may request deletion of personal information via your account settings; follow Personal Information → Request Erasure to start that process.
Will I get a refund?
General refund policy
BetterHelp considers refunds on a discretionary, case-by-case basis; customers should contact customer service to request a refund.
Statutory exceptions and cooling-off
There is no universal automatic 14-day refund worldwide from BetterHelp, but where local law gives a statutory cooling-off right, eligible users may apply for a full refund.
How to request a refund
- Contact BetterHelp customer support (for example contact@betterhelp.com) and explain your request.
- Provide booking/subscription details, dates, and any evidence supporting your claim (see Documentation checklist below).

Your consumer rights in Nigeria
Relevant law
Under Nigeria's Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Act (FCCPA) 2018, consumers have rights including cancellation and fair treatment for goods and services.
No-refund policies and fairness
A blanket "no refund" policy can be considered unfair or unlawful under FCCPA Sections 127 and 122, especially if services are defective or misrepresented.
How to enforce your rights
- You may lodge complaints with the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC).
- Consumers may also pursue remedies in court; tribunals and courts have sometimes ruled in favour of consumers on subscription disputes.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
Many users praise BetterHelp for convenience, affordability, ease of use, and access to therapy from home.
Some customers report good support from customer service, including refunds or free extensions in certain cases.
Negative feedback
Common complaints include billing continuing after cancellation, difficulty cancelling via third-party stores, and mixed refund outcomes.
Users also report occasional therapist availability issues, technical problems, and inconsistent customer service experiences.
Documentation checklist
What to collect before contacting support
- Account email and username used with BetterHelp.
- Subscription start date, billing cycle date, and transaction receipts or bank/card statements showing charges.
- Screenshots of account Payment Settings or cancellation attempts, and any confirmation emails.
What to include in a refund claim
- A clear explanation of why you believe a refund is due (e.g., duplicate charge, billing after cancellation, service not delivered).
- Records of communications with BetterHelp or app store support and any case/reference numbers.
Common mistakes
Failing to cancel with the right provider
Example: A user cancels on the BetterHelp website but forgets to cancel the App Store subscription; the store continues billing.
Always check where you originally purchased the subscription and cancel there.
Not checking billing cycle timing
Example: Cancelling after the renewal date results in the next cycle being charged; access continues until period end but refund may be denied.
Check your renewal date and cancel before it to avoid the next charge.
Poor documentation when requesting refunds
Example: Contacting support without transaction receipts or account details slows resolution and reduces likelihood of a refund.
Keep payment records and confirmation screenshots ready before opening a dispute.
