What happens when you cancel

Access and renewal

Cancellation of FYE Backstage Pass typically takes effect at the end of the current billed period.

Your membership benefits usually remain active until the paid period expires; future renewals should stop after cancellation is processed.

Account data and records

FYE may retain account and billing records for administrative or legal reasons in accordance with its policies.

If you need deletion of personal data, request it via the same customer service channels used for cancellation.

Will I get a refund?

Standard refund policy

FYE’s general policy is that subscriptions are non-refundable once the purchase day has passed except in limited circumstances.

Exceptions and timing

• Same-day cancellation with receipt: FYE Backstage Pass refunds may be available if you cancel on the same day of purchase and provide a receipt.
• Web orders: refunds are normally granted only for damaged or incorrect items after return and processing.
• Processing times: refunds for eligible returns may take 1 - 2 weeks to process and credits can appear in 3 - 7 business days.

Your consumer rights in South Africa

Key protections under South African law

South African consumers are protected by laws that include guarantees of quality and rights for defective goods and services.

Suppliers generally cannot contract out of statutory consumer protections; blanket disclaimers may be unenforceable where the law provides specific rights.

Practical options if you have a dispute

• Request a refund or repair if goods are defective or not as described.
• Contact your bank or card issuer to request a chargeback for unauthorized or incorrect charges.
• File a complaint with local consumer protection bodies if the supplier refuses to resolve a legitimate dispute.

Customer experiences

Positive experiences

• Some customers report receiving ordered collectibles and figures without issues.
• Occasional one-time refunds have been issued after contacting support as a courtesy.

Negative experiences

• Many customers report unexpected Backstage Pass enrollments and difficulty cancelling, sometimes needing multiple calls or emails.
• Complaints include unauthorized monthly charges (often around USD 11.99), misleading staff statements and resistance when asking to cancel.
• Some users reported being charged after they thought they had cancelled, suggesting support or system failures in some cases.

Documentation checklist

What to have before you cancel

• Purchase confirmation or receipt showing the FYE VIP/Backstage Pass charge.
• Account email address or username used for the purchase.
• Last 4 digits of the card used (if disputing a charge) and the date of the transaction.

What to include in a cancellation request

• Clear statement requesting cancellation and the effective date (e.g., "Please cancel my Backstage Pass immediately").
• Attach or reference your receipt or order number where available.
• Provide preferred contact details for follow-up.

Common mistakes

Assuming unsubscribe equals cancellation

Unsubscribing from SMS messages (by texting STOP) does not cancel App Store, Google Play, or web subscriptions.

Always cancel the membership through the Membership section on the website, customer service, or in-store when required.

Not keeping proof

Failing to save receipts, confirmation emails or cancellation reference numbers makes disputes harder to resolve.

Keep screenshots or email copies of any correspondence confirming cancellation or promised refunds.
