Postclic premium unlimited: promotional offer at ₱61.60 for 48h, then ₱3,353.56 per month without commitment

Cancellation service #1 in Philippines
Mentorbox is an education subscription focused on video lessons and book-based learning from well-known business and self-improvement authors. The core offer publicly promoted is access to more than 300 courses, with a listed monthly price of $7.00 (₱396)* on the offer page and related summaries ("Access to over 300 courses" on mentorbox.com and offer.mentorbox.com).
For users in the Philippines, the truth is the service looks simple on the sales page but the cancellation side can feel less clear than it should be. The Terms say the subscription auto-renews unless you cancel before the next billing period, and no minimum commitment length is specified, so it works like a recurring monthly subscription rather than a long lock-in plan (mentorbox.com).
The paid value is straightforward: on-demand access to a library of courses, summaries, and learning content from various experts. You are not paying for a one-time course purchase. You are paying for ongoing access, which means billing continues every month until you stop it.
That distinction matters because many users only realize the recurring part after a second charge appears. If you signed up at $7.00 (₱396)* per month, the practical question is not only whether the library is useful, but whether you still want the subscription active next month.
Mentorbox appears accessible online in the Philippines, but there is no verified local Philippine pricing page, no confirmed Filipino language support, and no stated GCash or Maya billing option in the verified sources. The best verified reference point is still the US-denominated price of $7.00 (₱396)*, converted using 1 USD ≈ 56.5 PHP.
Support channels are also basic. The help center is at Mentorbox Help, support email is [email protected], phone support is 1-888-330-5374, and no live chat is listed. For many Philippine users, that means cancellation often depends on email records and screenshots rather than real-time support.
Many Philippine users get frustrated when cancellation feels unclear, especially if another charge appears after they thought they were done. Heads up: before touching anything, take a screenshot of your current plan, note your next billing date, and save the email address tied to the account. Those three details are often what banks and support teams ask for later.
You should also check where you subscribed. If you joined directly on the website, use Mentorbox support or your account dashboard. If you subscribed through Apple or Google, cancel from that store account instead. Using the wrong channel is one of the most common reasons a subscription stays active.
The verified guidance says Mentorbox web cancellations go through support at [email protected] or by phone at 1-888-330-5374, with confirmation kept as proof (mentorbox.com/help and postclic summary based on public cancellation instructions). The Terms also say you must cancel through your account dashboard before the beginning of the next billing period to stop auto-renewal (mentorbox.com).
The practical click path may look slightly different depending on updates, but the usual route is Account or Profile, then Billing or Subscription, then Cancel. If the visible cancel button is missing, open the help page and send an email immediately with your account email, billing date, and a clear subject line such as “Cancel Mentorbox subscription before renewal.”
A good short email works better than a long complaint. Include your full name, account email, last four card digits if available, last charge date, and a direct line saying you want auto-renewal stopped before the next billing cycle. Save both the sent email and any reply.
Email is usually the easiest backup because it leaves a timestamped record. Send your request to [email protected] and attach a screenshot of your account page if possible. On the phone side, the listed number is 1-888-330-5374, but support hours are not specified, so if you call from the Philippines you may hit a time-zone mismatch or a recording.
If you need stronger proof, you can also send a written cancellation request by registered mail to the US mailing address. Some users prefer a certified digital delivery service such as Postclic because it creates timestamped proof of sending, receipt, and opening without going to a post office. That is useful if email replies are slow and you want a cleaner paper trail.
Use this physical address for a written cancellation request:
In your letter, include your account email, full name, charge amount, and a clear request to cancel auto-renewal. Give a realistic delivery window of 5 to 10 business days for postal proof, which is slower than email but stronger if you later need to dispute a charge.
If you subscribed through the App Store, cancellation has to happen in your Apple subscriptions. Open iPhone Settings, tap your name, tap Subscriptions, select Mentorbox, then tap Cancel Subscription. This stops future billing through Apple, although access may continue until the end of the paid period.
If you subscribed through Google Play, open Google Play, tap your profile icon, then Payments and subscriptions, then Subscriptions, then Mentorbox, then Cancel subscription. This is especially important because canceling on the Mentorbox site does not reliably stop a store-billed subscription.
Based on the verified cancellation guidance, access may remain available until the end of the current billing period after you cancel. That means if your renewal date is April 28 and you cancel on April 10, you may still keep access until April 28, but you should not be billed for the next cycle if cancellation was processed correctly.
This is where many users get confused. Canceling usually stops the next charge. It does not always shut off content instantly. So if the platform still opens after cancellation, that alone does not mean the cancellation failed.
The Terms state that Mentorbox subscriptions are set to auto-renew unless canceled by the user before the next billing period (mentorbox.com). In plain language, if you miss the cutoff, the card on file may be charged again for another month at the active plan rate.
There is no minimum commitment period listed in the verified Terms data, so you can cancel at any time. The catch is timing. If you wait until the renewal has already hit, the charge may post and a refund is not guaranteed.
Mentorbox does not clearly state in the verified Terms what data is deleted after cancellation or how long account data stays on file. It also does not clearly explain whether users can export course history or saved progress before the account ends.
Because of that gap, save anything you may need before canceling. Take screenshots of your subscription page, download invoices or receipts from your email, and note the exact date your access is due to end. If you later need help from your bank, those details matter more than general statements.
Mentorbox’s formal Terms indicate that prorated refunds are generally not provided, and refunds are only given when covered by the company’s refund policy or required by applicable law. That is the key point for Philippine users: canceling stops future billing, but it usually does not mean you automatically get money back for unused days.
Some third-party summaries mention a “30-day money-back guarantee,” but that claim does not line up cleanly with the formal Terms and should be treated carefully. If you are counting on a refund, rely on the Terms and written support replies, not on promotional claims repeated elsewhere.
If you were charged after canceling, or you believe the charge was unauthorized, ask for a refund in writing right away. Send an email to [email protected] with the subject “Refund request for continued billing” and include your account email, charge date, amount such as $7.00 (₱396)*, and your cancellation proof.
Be specific and concise. Say when you canceled, attach the screenshot or email confirmation, and state the exact amount you want refunded. If your subscription was bought through Apple or Google, request the refund through that store because store-billed purchases are normally handled by the store’s payment system, not the merchant’s direct support team.
Many users in the Philippines get stuck here: cancellation unclear, support unresponsive, refund denied or delayed. Under the Consumer Act of the Philippines, Republic Act No. 7394, you can complain to the Department of Trade and Industry if an online subscription keeps billing after you canceled or if the seller does not honor fair cancellation handling.
For card and e-wallet disputes, you can also go through your bank, card issuer, GCash-linked card provider, Maya card provider, or another payment issuer. Under BSP dispute practice, cardholders often have up to 60 days from the statement date to dispute unauthorized or continued charges. Save every screenshot because that is usually what determines whether a chargeback succeeds.
The Terms say the subscription auto-renews unless you cancel before the beginning of your next billing period (mentorbox.com). That is the single most important billing rule attached to the service. If your monthly cycle renews on the 15th, your cancellation needs to be submitted before that date, not after.
The same Terms data does not show any minimum commitment duration. So this is not a fixed 12-month lock-in plan based on the verified information. It is a monthly subscription that can be ended at any time, but only future billing is reliably affected.
The verified data does not clearly state the free trial terms, if any, and does not clearly explain data retention after cancellation. That missing detail matters because trial-to-paid conversions are a common source of surprise billing. If you are on any special offer, take a screenshot of the exact wording before the trial or promo ends.
The applicable law listed in the Terms is the United States, which is standard for a US-based service, but Philippine users still have local consumer remedies through DTI and payment disputes through BSP-related banking channels when charges affect a Philippine-issued payment method.
Plan | Price (USD / PHP) | Billing period | Main access |
|---|---|---|---|
Monthly Subscription | $7.00 (₱396)* | Monthly | 300+ courses |
Prices are approximate, converted from USD at the rate 1 USD ≈ 56.5 PHP. Please check the official website for exact local prices.
At $7.00 (₱396)* per month, Mentorbox sits in the lower-cost range for paid learning subscriptions. If you actively use the 300+ course library, the price is not extreme. If you only opened the service once or twice, though, ₱396 every month adds up quickly, and the value drops fast.
The main issue is not the sticker price. It is the recurring nature of the charge plus the weak clarity around cancellation and refunds. A low monthly fee can still become a hassle if you forget the renewal date or do not get cancellation proof.
No cancellation fee was found in the Terms data, and no early termination fee was identified. That is good news. You should not be paying an extra penalty just for ending the subscription.
There is also no verified annual plan in the provided data, so there is no confirmed annual discount to calculate here. The practical cost risk is continued monthly billing, not a cancellation penalty.
In the Philippines, subscription cancellation issues are mainly handled under the Consumer Act of the Philippines, Republic Act No. 7394, together with DTI complaint processes for consumer transactions. For a service like Mentorbox, this matters if cancellation is difficult, support goes silent, or a charge appears after you already canceled.
The local guidance in the research also points to a 7-working-day cooling-off period for certain door-to-door and distance sales situations. Online subscriptions do not have a universal cooling-off rule in every case, so for Mentorbox the stronger argument is usually unfair or continued billing rather than a broad automatic withdrawal right.
If Mentorbox does not respond or keeps billing you, start with a written complaint to the merchant and wait a reasonable short period for a reply. After that, file a complaint with DTI and attach your evidence: screenshots, invoice emails, cancellation timestamp, and bank statement showing the charge.
If the problem is a card charge that should not have happened, contact your bank or e-wallet provider on the same day you notice it. For Philippine-issued cards and related payment products, a chargeback request within 60 days from the statement date is often the practical window used by issuers under BSP dispute handling.
The consumer authority you will most likely use is DTI for complaint handling under RA 7394. For competition-related oversight, the provided research names the Philippine Competition Commission, though day-to-day subscription complaints are more commonly routed through DTI rather than competition enforcement.
Use these official starting points for evidence-based complaints and policy references:
The available cancellation sentiment is poor. Based on the provided review sample, there are 0 positive and 5 negative unique reviews related to cancellation, billing, or customer service. For Philippine readers, that lines up with two local pain points already flagged in the research: difficulty canceling subscriptions and unresponsive customer support.
To stay balanced, Mentorbox does offer a relatively low monthly price of $7.00 (₱396)* and a broad course library. Still, the review trend on cancellation is negative enough that you should document every step and not rely on a verbal promise or a single click without proof.
Theme | Frequency | Typical example |
|---|---|---|
Cancel difficulty | 2 of 5 | No clear stop path |
Charge after cancel | 2 of 5 | Billed again later |
Support issues | 3 of 5 | Email not answered |
Unauthorized billing | 1 of 5 | Unknown card charge |

Do not cancel empty-handed. Save a screenshot of the subscription page showing your account email, active plan, and next billing date. If the visible amount shows $7.00 (₱396)*, capture that too because it ties the account to the charge on your statement.
You should also save any welcome email, renewal notice, or App Store or Google Play receipt. If support later asks for proof, these are usually the fastest documents to send.
If you request a refund or file a chargeback, your evidence folder should be complete on day one. Add the cancellation email you sent, the reply you received if any, your bank statement line for the charge, and the exact date you noticed the issue.
After cancellation, keep watching your card or e-wallet-linked statement for at least two billing cycles. Continued billing cases often become easier to reverse when you can show a timeline with clean documentation.
A classic mistake is canceling on the website when the subscription actually came from Apple or Google. If the billing source is App Store or Google Play, the store remains in control of recurring payments. The result is predictable: you think you canceled, but the renewal keeps going.
The fix is simple. Match the cancellation channel to the billing channel every time. Store subscription means store cancellation. Direct web subscription means Mentorbox account or support cancellation.
Another common mistake is trying to cancel on the same day the charge is due. The Terms say cancellation must happen before the next billing period begins (mentorbox.com). If the system has already renewed, that month may already be locked in and a refund may not be easy.
A safer habit is canceling at least 3 days before renewal, especially if you are relying on email support. That gives you a buffer if support responds slowly or if you need to follow up.
Many people understandably expect unused days to be refunded. Mentorbox’s policy does not generally promise prorated refunds, so that assumption can lead to disappointment. Canceling and refund eligibility are separate issues here.
A better approach is to cancel early and ask for a refund only if there was a clear billing error, an unauthorized charge, or a post-cancellation renewal. That aligns better with the policy reality and with how banks evaluate disputes.
Several negative reviews mention continued billing and weak support responses. If you do not save your confirmation page or sent email, you may end up arguing with only a memory of what happened. That is a weak position if the charge appears again next month.
Always keep a screenshot of the final confirmation, or at minimum the sent email with timestamp. If no confirmation arrives, follow up within 24 hours rather than waiting for the next statement.
Some users cancel and never check the next statement closely. Then a second or third charge appears, which makes the timeline harder to unwind. This is especially risky if your card updater service carries recurring billing to a replacement card, something one reviewer specifically complained about.
The solution is boring but effective: check the next two statements line by line. If a charge reappears, dispute it immediately instead of collecting more months of loss.
Method | Notice period | Fee | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|---|
Web/account | Before next billing | No fee found | Easy if visible |
App Store (iOS) | Before next billing | No fee found | Medium, store path |
Google Play (Android) | Before next billing | No fee found | Medium, store path |
Registered mail | 5-10 business days | No fee found | Higher, best proof |
If your goal is speed, digital cancellation is usually faster. If your goal is evidence, email plus screenshots gives you a stronger record, and registered mail adds another layer if the case gets messy. None of the listed methods shows a cancellation fee in the verified data.
The practical choice depends on your situation. If the billing date is tomorrow, use the fastest channel available now and preserve proof. If support has been silent, strengthen the record with email and written notice rather than repeating the same unsupported click.
Right after cancellation, check whether you received a confirmation email or saw an on-screen confirmation with an end date. Screenshot that page immediately. Then set a calendar reminder for one day before your original renewal date and another reminder for when your next statement becomes available.
If support told you access continues until the end of the billing cycle, note that date too. Example: if you canceled on April 10 and the plan remains active until April 28, write both dates down so you know when content should end and when billing should not repeat.
Watch your bank or card statement for at least 60 days from the statement date if you are concerned about unauthorized or continued charges. In the Philippines, you can dispute those charges through your bank, card issuer, GCash-linked card, Maya-linked card, or similar provider, and BSP-related dispute practice often gives cardholders up to 60 days from the statement date.
If a new Mentorbox charge appears after documented cancellation, raise a chargeback request and attach your proof. For the consumer complaint side, DTI is the agency to contact under RA 7394. Use chargeback as a last resort when merchant support has failed or the billing is clearly unauthorized.
If you are leaving Mentorbox but still want guidance, MentorCruise is a more mentor-focused option with personalized support, though it is much pricier at about $50 to $200 per month (roughly ₱2,825 to ₱11,300). Eequ is another learning marketplace built around sessions with mentors and educators, with pricing set by provider. Upwork is less of a course library and more of a place to hire professionals for project-based help.
The gap is clear: Mentorbox is cheaper at $7.00 (₱396)*, while the alternatives are usually more hands-on and more expensive. So if your issue is not content quality but cancellation stress, you may want services with stronger support and cleaner billing controls.
If you want a paper trail beyond email, use the US mailing address linked to cancellation and refund requests. This is relevant for users in the Philippines who want stronger evidence because no local Philippine cancellation address was found in the verified data.
Send your written request here:
Include your full name, account email, the charge amount such as $7.00 (₱396)*, the date of your last bill, and a plain sentence asking to cancel future renewals. Email is still faster, but a mailed request can help if you later need to show a complete evidence trail.
If you only remember one thing, make it this: cancel before the next billing date and keep proof. The pattern in reviews suggests that unclear cancellation and weak support are the real risks, not cancellation fees. A screenshot, a sent email, and a statement check can save you far more trouble than any single support call.
For most users in the Philippines, the cleanest path is web or store cancellation matched to the original billing source, followed by immediate documentation. If billing continues anyway, escalate quickly to your bank or payment provider and then to DTI with your records ready.
