Cancel online or via app store

What happens when you cancel
Access and service period
Cancellation stops future billing but you retain access to Credit Hero Score until the end of your current billing or promotional period.
If you cancel during a trial period, canceling before conversion stops the subscription from becoming a paid membership.
Account and billing effects
- Cancelling prevents future renewals but does not produce pro‑rated refunds for the remainder of the billing cycle.
- Always save cancellation confirmation (email or reference number) in case of future billing disputes.
Will I get a refund?
Official refund policy
Credit Hero Score states that no refunds or credits are issued once services have been provided and that pro‑rated refunds are not offered. See the official policy: Cancellation, termination and refund policy.
Trial period and exceptions
- There is a 7‑day trial that costs US$1.00; cancel within that period via phone or account to avoid conversion to the regular monthly fee.
- Beyond the trial, the company’s stated policy is that there are no refunds after services have been provided.

Your consumer rights in South Africa
Cooling-off and the Consumer Protection Act
Under South African consumer law (the Consumer Protection Act), consumers often have a statutory cooling‑off period for certain transactions which may allow cancellation and remedies.
Credit Hero Score’s published policy does not explicitly reference South African CPA rights, but statutory rights may still apply depending on how the service was sold and delivered.
How to seek recourse
- If you believe your CPA rights apply, you can contact the National Consumer Commission or seek guidance from consumer‑protection resources in South Africa.
- If you were billed through Apple or Google, use the store’s refund and subscription dispute processes in addition to contacting the company.

Always verify the exact service name, billing descriptor on your statement, and the subscription source (site versus app store) before taking action.
Documentation checklist
Account and billing evidence
- Account email and username used to sign up.
- Subscription or invoice dates and amounts (screenshots are helpful).
- Billing statement entry showing the charge descriptor.
Cancellation records
- Confirmation email or cancellation reference number from Credit Hero Score.
- Call logs (date/time/agent name) if you cancelled by phone.
- Screenshots of the My Account > Billing history cancellation page.
Common mistakes
Timing and missed deadlines
Waiting until the billing date or cancelling too close to renewal can result in another charge; Credit Hero Score recommends cancelling at least 3 business days before the next billing date to avoid being charged again.
Wrong cancellation route
Cancelling in the wrong place is common - if you signed up via an app store you must cancel through Apple or Google, not only on the Credit Hero Score website.
Also, failing to obtain or save a cancellation confirmation causes disputes to be harder to resolve.
