Cancellation Southern Living: Easy Method
What is Southern Living
Overview
Southern Living is a US-based lifestyle magazine focused on Southern cuisine, travel, home design and gardening. It offers digital and print subscription options managed through app stores, the publisher, and third-party resellers.
Where subscriptions are sold
Subscriptions are available through the Apple App Store (iOS), Google Play (Android), publisher-managed accounts, and independent resellers. Terms and management vary by channel.
How to cancel Southern Living
App Store (iOS)
- Open your Apple ID / iTunes account settings on your device or at the App Store.
- Find Subscriptions, select Southern Living Magazine, and turn off Auto-Renew.
- Disable auto-renew at least 24 hours before the current period ends to avoid a new charge.
- Note: you cannot cancel to get a mid-period refund; disabling auto-renew stops future renewals only.
Reference: App Store subscription rules and in-app purchase details.
Google Play (Android)
- Open the Google Play Store app and tap Menu > Subscriptions.
- Select Southern Living Magazine and choose Cancel Subscription.
- Follow on-screen prompts to confirm cancellation; cancellation prevents future renewals.
Reference: Google Play cancellation steps via a verified guide.
Web / Publisher-managed or Third-party resellers
- If you subscribed via the publisher or a retail partner, log in to your subscriber account or contact Subscriber Services to cancel.
- For reseller purchases, follow the reseller’s cancellation and refund policies; some resellers offer separate guarantees.
- If in doubt, contact Subscriber Services directly for instructions: Subscriber Services.
What happens when you cancel
Access and delivery
Cancelling auto-renew stops future billing but generally does not remove access for the remainder of the paid period. Digital access usually remains until the subscription expiry date.
Account and data
Publisher-managed accounts retain subscription records for customer service and audit purposes. You may request account changes through subscriber support or the reseller you used.
Will I get a refund?
App-based purchases (iOS/Android)
- App-based subscriptions generally follow a “no-refund” model; cancelling prevents future charges but does not typically refund the current period.
- If you believe a charge is unauthorised, contact your payment provider or app store support to dispute the charge.
Third-party resellers and exceptions
- Certain resellers offer satisfaction guarantees. For example, BlueDolphin advertises a 100% satisfaction guarantee: cancel within 90 days for a full refund.
- Refund eligibility and timeframes depend on the reseller’s terms; always check the reseller policy before subscribing.

Your consumer rights in South Africa
Cooling-off and return rights
South African consumer law commonly provides a 7-day cooling-off period for direct marketing and electronic purchases and a 14-day return right in some cases.
However, these statutory rights may not apply to subscriptions purchased from an overseas publisher or through foreign app stores.
Practical steps for South African consumers
- Check the reseller or seller’s terms (e.g., BlueDolphin) for local refund policies.
- If you suspect unauthorised charges, contact your bank or card issuer to dispute them.
- Keep order confirmations and communication as evidence when claiming rights or disputing charges.
Customer experiences
Positive reports
- Some customers report courteous and efficient handling by Southern Living customer service for routine requests.
- Users appreciate the ability to manage subscriptions online through recognised partners.
Negative reports
- Public complaint data shows mixed satisfaction; some users report difficulty cancelling unwanted renewals and obtaining refunds.
- User threads and guides include multiple complaints about unexpected charges and the challenges of cancelling through the correct channel.
Sources for user reports include community complaint pages and cancellation guides: PissedConsumer, AppCutter, and Xpendy.
Documentation checklist
Required documents
- Order confirmation or subscription receipt (email or account page).
- Account ID or subscriber number (if available).
- Payment proof (credit card or app-store transaction record).
Optional but helpful
- Screenshots of subscription status, renewal date, and cancellation attempts.
- Any correspondence with customer service or reseller support.
- Bank statements showing the charge you wish to dispute.
Common mistakes
Missing the cancellation window
A frequent mistake is disabling auto-renew too late. For App Store subscriptions, turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the period ends.
Contacting the wrong channel
Many issues arise when customers contact the publisher but subscribed via a third-party reseller or app store. Always cancel through the channel you purchased from.
