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

Cancellation service #1 in Philippines
Everand is a paid digital reading service from Scribd, Inc., a United States company based in San Francisco, California. The service was previously tied closely to the Scribd brand, and its support pages and App Store listing still reference Scribd in several places, which can confuse users during cancellation.
If you are in the Philippines, that branding overlap matters. You may see your subscription listed as Everand on the website but as Scribd in App Store or Google Play records, so always search for both names when you try to stop billing.
Everand sells access to audiobooks, eBooks, podcasts, and a catalog of subscriber content. Based on the March 2026 App Store listing for the Philippines, the plans now revolve around monthly premium title allowances, not unlimited access to every title, which is one reason many recent users felt disappointed.
The published plan structure includes 1, 3, or 5 premium titles per month, plus access to a wider catalog of more than 20,000 other pieces of content. Offline reading and listening are included, and the service works across multiple devices through the app and website.
In the Philippines, Everand is available through the web and through app billing channels such as the App Store. Local support in Filipino is not listed, and the verified support options are limited to a help center and email, with no published phone or live chat, which matches common complaints from local users.
The service uses auto-renewal. Everand’s subscriber agreement says subscriptions renew automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the next billing date, and free trials convert into paid subscriptions if you do nothing. There is no minimum commitment period and no early termination fee in the available terms.
A lot of frustration starts when users cancel the wrong way, miss the billing date, or forget to save proof. If you are worried about being charged again, check your renewal date first, take a screenshot of your current plan, and save any email receipt that shows where you subscribed.
Heads up: Everand users in the Philippines also report payment processing issues with local banks. That makes proof even more useful. Save your latest card, GCash, Maya, or App Store transaction record before changing anything.
If you subscribed directly on Everand, this is usually the fastest route. The verified path is: log in on the website, go to your account page, find the Subscription and Payment Details section, click End My Subscription or Cancel Subscription, then follow the on-screen prompts until the final confirmation appears.
Do not stop at the offer screen if one appears. Finish the flow until you see the cancellation message and receive the confirmation email. Several users complained that the process felt unclear, so the safest habit is to capture the final screen and keep the email in one folder.
If you need the official support area while doing this, use Everand Help Center. The verified cancellation instructions are also published by Scribd support.
If you subscribed through Apple, you must cancel in the App Store settings, not on the Everand website. On iPhone or iPad, open App Store, tap your profile icon, tap Subscriptions, find Scribd or Everand, tap it, then choose Cancel Subscription and confirm.
If you subscribed through Android, open Google Play Store, open the menu or profile area, tap Subscriptions, find Scribd or Everand, tap it, then choose Cancel Subscription and confirm. The important detail is that store-billed subscriptions are controlled by the store, so website cancellation may not stop future billing.
Everand lists email support at [email protected] and the support center is available 24/7. There is no verified customer service phone number and no verified live chat. If the cancel button fails, send a short email with your account email, billing date, and a clear line such as “Please cancel auto-renewal immediately.”
If you want stronger proof for a billing dispute, you can also send a written notice to the company address. Some users prefer registered mail, while others use certified digital letter services such as Postclic because they generate timestamped proof of sending, receipt, and tracking without going to a post office.
For paid subscriptions, cancellation stops the next renewal but does not usually cut off access right away. Everand’s support page says you keep access until the end of the current billing period, so if your plan renews on March 28 and you cancel on March 10, you should still have access until March 28.
The exception is the free trial. If you cancel during the free trial, premium benefits end immediately upon cancellation. That catches some people off guard because they expect the trial to continue until the original end date, but that is not how Everand describes it.
Everand’s subscriber agreement states that subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period unless canceled at least 24 hours before renewal. In simple terms, if your renewal is tomorrow and you wait too long today, the next charge can still go through.
This is one of the most common pain points for subscription users in the Philippines. If you are already within that last 24-hour window, cancel anyway, save proof, and monitor your statement because the timing can become the key evidence if a dispute is needed.
After cancellation, your account remains active and your reading history and saved lists stay on file if you later subscribe again. Everand says unlocked titles remain accessible until the end of the current billing period, but subscriber-only premium access ends when the subscription fully expires.
If you have notes, lists, or a reading queue you care about, save screenshots before the end date. There is no verified export tool mentioned in the available support sources, so manual saving is the practical option.
The truth is, Everand’s refund position is stricter than many users expect. The published policy says fees are generally nonrefundable, and the cancellation help page says there are no refunds for unused time on a paid subscription. If you cancel halfway through a month, you usually keep access until the cycle ends, but you do not get a pro-rated refund.
That means your best shot at avoiding charges is timing. Cancel at least 24 hours before renewal. If the issue is a billing error rather than simple regret, contact support immediately and attach evidence such as transaction date, amount, and screenshots of the cancellation screen.
Use the channel that billed you. If Everand billed you directly, email [email protected] with your account email, billing amount, transaction date, and a short explanation. If Apple billed you, start with Apple subscription management and any Apple refund route tied to your purchase record. If Google Play billed you, use your Google Play order details as your reference.
Write clearly and stay factual. Mention the exact amount, such as ₱459.00 for Standard, ₱469.00 for Plus, or ₱489.00 for Deluxe if that matches your plan. Ask for confirmation that auto-renewal is off and state whether you are requesting a refund for a duplicate charge, late cancellation issue, or unauthorized transaction.
In the Philippines, there is no universal cooling-off period for all online subscriptions under the Consumer Act of the Philippines or RA 7394. A seven working day cooling-off period is better known for door-to-door or direct sales, not for every digital subscription. For online services like Everand, refund rights usually depend on misleading conduct, billing errors, or failure to deliver the service as promised.
If the service was defective, materially different from what was advertised, or the billing continued after valid cancellation, you may raise the issue with the Department of Trade and Industry or DTI. For card or e-wallet disputes, BSP rules usually give cardholders up to 60 days from the statement date to dispute a transaction through the bank, GCash, Maya, or the card issuer.
The subscriber agreement says auto-renewal applies by default, free trials convert to paid subscriptions unless canceled beforehand, and there is no minimum commitment period. It also says the contract is governed by United States law because the service is provided by Scribd, Inc., but Philippine consumer remedies can still matter when a charge hits your local payment method.
Another clause worth noting is data retention after cancellation. Everand says your account, reading history, and saved lists remain intact, which is useful if you plan to resubscribe later. The downside is that keeping the account open is not the same as keeping premium access, so make sure the renewal itself is actually off.
Plan | Price (USD / PHP) | Period | Premium titles |
|---|---|---|---|
Standard Plan | $11.99 (₱459)* | Monthly | 1 per month |
Plus Plan | $16.99 (₱469)* | Monthly | 3 per month |
Deluxe Plan | $28.99 (₱489)* | Monthly | 5 per month |
Prices are approximate. Converted from USD at the rate 1 USD ≈ 1.0 PHP for research comparison, while the Philippine App Store listing shows local prices such as ₱459.00, ₱469.00, and ₱489.00. Check the official website or App Store for the exact current price.
The least expensive plan listed for the Philippines is Standard at ₱459.00 per month. The most expensive is Deluxe at ₱489.00 per month. The gap between Standard and Plus is only ₱10.00, and between Plus and Deluxe only ₱20.00, which is small enough that some users may accidentally stay on a higher plan than they really need.
If you only use one premium title a month, Standard is the logical cap. If you signed up back when the service felt more unlimited, review your actual usage now because the pricing model has changed and many user complaints focus on reduced value rather than the raw peso amount.
The available terms mention monthly and annual subscriptions, but the verified local App Store pricing shown here is monthly. No cancellation fee or early termination fee was found. There is also no verified bundle inclusion such as Apple One or Amazon Prime.
Because pricing can change and local taxes or store billing rules can affect the final amount, compare your latest receipt with the plan table above. If your bank statement shows a different amount, treat that as a billing issue and document it right away.
For users in the Philippines, the main consumer framework is the Consumer Act of the Philippines or RA 7394, with the Department of Trade and Industry as the key agency for consumer complaints. This matters when an online subscription keeps charging you, misrepresents what is included, or fails to honor a valid cancellation.
Everand’s own agreement points to United States law for the contract, but that does not stop you from filing a local complaint about a consumer transaction affecting you in the Philippines. In plain terms, the company can write its terms, but your payment dispute with a local bank or card issuer still runs through Philippine systems.
There is no broad statutory cooling-off period for all online subscriptions in the Philippines. The seven working day cooling-off rule is more specific to door-to-door or direct sales. So if you bought Everand online and simply changed your mind, the law does not automatically guarantee a refund in the way many shoppers expect.
You may still have a basis to seek reimbursement if the service was not delivered as described, if there was misleading marketing, or if billing continued after proper cancellation. That is where RA 7394 and general contract remedies become more relevant than a simple buyer’s remorse argument.
Start by gathering proof: cancellation screenshot, confirmation email, billing statement, and any support ticket reply. Then send one final written complaint to Everand support with a clear deadline for response. If the issue remains unresolved, you can escalate to DTI for a consumer complaint.
For consumer complaints, the authority named in the research is the Department of Trade and Industry. For unauthorized card or e-wallet charges, you can also work through your bank and, if needed, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas within the usual 60-day dispute window from the statement date.
The verified Everand support contacts are limited: email [email protected], help center at Scribd support, phone not available, chat not available, support hours listed as 24/7 for the help system. Limited local language support is a known issue in the Philippines, so write your complaint in simple English and attach clear evidence.
Based on the five unique reviews supplied for this guide, the cancellation experience trend is clearly negative: 0 positive and 5 negative. The recurring theme is not that Everand charges a termination fee, because no such fee was found, but that users feel the value dropped and the cancellation path can be unclear or frustrating.
For Philippine users, two local risks also stand out: limited customer support in Filipino languages and payment processing issues with local banks. So the service is not impossible to cancel, but it can feel harder than it should be when the website button fails or the billing channel is not obvious.
Theme | Frequency | Typical example |
|---|---|---|
Unclear cancellation | 2 reviews | Website button failed |
Lower value | 2 reviews | Unlock model disliked |
Poor support | 1 review | No phone service |
Source | Rating | Main topic | Sentiment |
|---|---|---|---|
TrustPilot | 2/5 | Ease of cancellation | Negative |
TrustPilot | 1/5 | Ease of cancellation | Negative |
TrustPilot | 1/5 | Hidden fee concern | Negative |
TrustPilot | 1/5 | Customer service | Negative |
TrustPilot | 1/5 | Charge after cancel | Negative |
There were no positive reviews in the supplied set, so that should be said plainly. To stay balanced, the service still offers real utility for heavy readers and listeners, especially if the monthly title allowance matches your habits, but the current cancellation and support reputation is not strong.
Prepare the basics before touching the cancel button. A one-minute evidence pack can save hours later if there is a post-cancellation charge. The most useful items are your account email, current plan name, billing date, and a screenshot of the Subscription and Payment Details page.
If you request a refund, Everand support will need specifics, not a long story. Use transaction IDs, dates, amounts, and device platform. If Apple or Google billed you, your store receipt number matters more than your Everand profile screenshot.
Do not rely on memory. Save the confirmation email and screenshot the final success screen. Then check your account page again to verify the subscription status shows an end date rather than an active renewal setting.
Monitor your payment method through the next billing cycle. If your renewal was due on April 12, check your statement on April 12, April 13, and when your monthly statement closes.
This is the classic mistake. If you subscribed through App Store, canceling on the Everand website may not stop Apple billing. The same logic applies to Google Play. Always cancel where you originally started the paid subscription.
Real example: a user reported that cancellation could not be done in the app and the website button did not work. In many cases, the hidden issue is not just a broken button but using the wrong billing channel.
Everand says cancellation should be done at least 24 hours before renewal. If your next charge is due tomorrow morning and you cancel late tonight, you may still be billed. That timing issue is one of the fastest ways to turn a simple cancellation into a refund dispute.
The fix is simple: cancel at least two days early if possible. That gives you time to retry, email support, and save evidence if something goes wrong.
Many users assume canceling mid-cycle means they get money back for the unused half of the month. Everand’s published policy points the other way. Paid plans usually remain active until the end of the billing period, with no refund for unused time.
If your issue is value for money rather than a billing error, adjust expectations before contacting support. Ask for cancellation confirmation first, then separately ask whether an exception can be made.
Some users believe the absence of content access means billing is over. That is risky. You need the confirmation email or final on-screen message because those records become your proof for DTI, your bank, GCash, Maya, or a credit card dispute.
Take two screenshots if needed: one of the final cancellation page and another of the account status page showing the end date. This is boring but very effective.
Everand does not list a verified phone number and does not list verified live chat. If you waste time searching for a hotline, you lose valuable hours before the billing cut-off. Use the help center and email immediately instead.
That matches a user complaint about the lack of phone service. The practical move is to write a concise email with the evidence attached, then escalate to your payment provider if a charge still lands.
Method | Notice period | Fee | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|---|
Web/account | Before next billing | No cancellation fee | Easy |
App Store (iOS) | 5-10 business days | No cancellation fee | Higher, best proof |
Google Play (Android) | Before next billing | No cancellation fee | Medium |
Each route works best in a different situation. Web cancellation is usually fastest for direct subscriptions, App Store gives strong receipt history if Apple handled the charge, and Google Play is the right path for Android store billing. The right choice depends on who billed you, not on which option looks easiest at first glance.
If you are unsure, look at the latest receipt. The billing source is the answer. That one step prevents most cancellation mistakes.
Right after cancellation, check for two things: a confirmation message on screen and a confirmation email in your inbox. Then add a calendar reminder for one day before your original renewal date and another reminder on the renewal date itself to inspect your statement.
If your account page still shows an active recurring plan after cancellation, act the same day. Retry through the correct platform and email support with screenshots attached.
Monitor your card, GCash, Maya, or bank statement through the next billing date and until the monthly statement is issued. If an unauthorized or continued charge appears, ask your provider for a chargeback or transaction dispute. BSP-related practice typically gives up to 60 days from the statement date for card disputes, so do not sit on it.
For online subscription complaints under RA 7394, DTI is the consumer agency to approach. Your strongest evidence is still the cancellation confirmation plus the charge entry on the statement.
The research list of alternatives is not a like-for-like reading subscription lineup, so take it as a general switch list rather than a direct replacement. Wix and Ecwid by Lightspeed are broader digital platforms, while Big Cartel suits creators and small sellers. They are not reading apps, but they are named in the research set.
If your real reason for canceling is lower reading value, your better comparison may be your local library app or another audiobook service rather than those business tools. One review even said the user returned to a free ebook library option because it felt more worthwhile.
If you want to send a written cancellation or billing complaint by post, use the company address provided in the research:
This is not the main path for most users because online account cancellation and store cancellation are faster. Still, a posted notice can help if you need a paper trail for a stubborn billing dispute.
Use the postal address for escalations, not as your starting move. For most people in the Philippines, the practical order is website or store cancellation, then email support, then payment dispute or DTI complaint if billing continues. Postal notice is the backup record, especially when you want independent proof that a formal complaint was sent.
If you do send a letter, keep a copy, the mailing receipt, and a screenshot of your online cancellation attempt. Put all three together and you will be in a much stronger position if a charge appears after the end date.
