Cancellation Scrimba: Easy Method

What is Scrimba

Overview

Scrimba is an interactive online coding platform focused on web development learning through screencasts that combine video and an editable code editor.

It offers courses, a Frontend Career Path, projects, and a community for hands-on practice and certificates.

Key features

Interactive screencasts let you pause and edit code directly in the lesson for immediate practice.

Scrimba provides structured paths, standalone courses, community help, and occasional bootcamp-style programs.

How to cancel Scrimba

Via the Scrimba website (direct/web)

• Log into your Scrimba account.
• Go to Profile → Settings → Subscriptions.
• Click the “x” next to your active subscription to cancel; access continues until the end of the current paid billing cycle.
• See an external step summary here: Postclic - How to cancel Scrimba.

On iOS (App Store purchases)

• Open the App Store, tap your account, then Subscriptions, and cancel Scrimba from there.
• Alternatively, open iOS Settings → Subscriptions and cancel from that list.
• Apple manages billing and refund requests for App Store purchases.

On Android (Google Play purchases)

• Open Google Play Store → Profile → Payments & subscriptions → Subscriptions, select Scrimba, then Cancel.
• Google handles billing and refund requests for Play Store purchases.

What happens when you cancel

Access after cancelling

If you cancel a paid subscription on the web, access remains until the end of the current paid billing cycle.

For App Store and Google Play purchases, access rules follow Apple/Google policies; cancelling stops future renewals but does not always remove immediate access.

Billing and renewals

Cancellation prevents future automatic renewals; you are not charged again after cancellation takes effect.

Automatic renewals initiated by third-party stores (Apple/Google) must be stopped via those stores.

Account and data

Cancelling a paid subscription does not necessarily delete your account or learning progress; your account remains unless you request deletion.

To retain records, save receipts or screenshots before cancelling if you may need them later.

Will I get a refund?

Web purchases (direct)

Scrimba provides full refunds for direct web purchases if requested within 7 days of the initial purchase.

This refund is limited to one refund per account; no prorated refunds for mid-cycle cancellations or renewals. Source: Scrimba help - Refunds.

Bootcamp and special programs

Bootcamp-style programs may have a different guarantee; Scrimba’s Bootcamp offers a 14-day money-back guarantee under its special terms.

Check program-specific terms before enrolling to confirm eligibility and deadlines.

App Store and Google Play purchases

Refunds for purchases made via Apple or Google are handled by those providers through their “Report a Problem” or refund request mechanisms.

Scrimba does not process refunds for purchases handled by the App Store or Google Play. See Postclic summary: Postclic - Cancel/Refund notes.

Scrimba plans and pricing

Pricing table

Notes on pricing

Scrimba’s official site lists prices in USD and may not show SGD. Actual SGD charges depend on exchange rates and payment processor fees.

For exact SGD amounts, go through signup or contact Scrimba support as noted in their help documentation.

Your consumer rights in Singapore

Cooling-off and digital content

Singapore consumers generally have protections like a cooling-off period for some unsolicited contracts, but digital content exceptions often apply.

Scrimba’s own refund rules (7-day web refund, one per account) set expectations; local law may not guarantee additional rights for digital content.

Dispute options and chargebacks

If you believe you were wrongly charged or cannot get a refund, consider contacting your card issuer to request a chargeback as a dispute route.

Keep receipts, dates, and correspondence; these help if you escalate to your bank or a consumer protection body.

Customer experiences

Positive feedback

Many reviewers praise Scrimba’s hands-on interactive lessons, live-coding style, practical exercises, projects, and supportive community.

Trustpilot contains multiple high-rated comments highlighting engagement and useful learning formats: Trustpilot - Scrimba reviews.

Negative feedback

Some users report unexpected automatic renewals, difficulty cancelling, and friction in obtaining refunds, particularly with older site versions.

Other complaints mention perceived high pricing and limited advanced content in certain backend or AI tracks; see aggregated notes: Postclic - Issues summary.

Documentation checklist

Before you cancel

• Account email and username used for the Scrimba account.
• Proof of purchase: receipt, payment confirmation, or order number.
• Identify where the purchase was made (web, App Store, Google Play).

If you request a refund or dispute

• Date of initial purchase and screenshots showing the subscription active/renewal charge.
• Correspondence with Scrimba support or App Store/Google Play support if already contacted.
• For App Store/Google Play purchases, use the provider’s refund/report process when filing.

Common mistakes

Mistakes when cancelling

One common mistake is cancelling through the Scrimba web interface when the subscription was bought through Apple or Google; those cancellations must be done in the respective stores.

Another mistake is not confirming the cancellation; always check the subscription page or store to ensure the status shows cancelled.

Refund-related mistakes

Expecting prorated refunds for mid-cycle cancellation is a frequent error - Scrimba’s policy disallows prorated refunds for renewals or mid-cycle cancellations for web purchases.

Also, waiting too long to request the initial 7-day web refund or missing the bootcamp-specific 14-day window can forfeit refund eligibility.
