Your consumer rights in South Africa
Relevant law
Under South Africa’s Consumer Protection Act (CPA), consumers have rights relating to unfair, reckless or misleading practices and may have a right to cancel under certain conditions.
Cooling-off and immediate service
The CPA provides protection, but where a supplier immediately renders a digital service with consumer consent, the right to cancel may be limited.
How to proceed locally
- Record all communications with Pdfhouse and keep proof of purchase and charges.
- If you believe your rights under the CPA were breached, contact local consumer-protection authorities or seek legal advice in South Africa.

Documentation checklist
Before contacting support
- Account email and username.
- Order number or transaction ID (from payment confirmation).
- Date(s) of trial start and/or billing charges.
When sending a refund or cancellation request
- Screenshots of charges on your bank or card statement.
- Copies of cancellation confirmation or chat transcripts.
- Your preferred resolution (refund, pro-rated refund, or credit).
Common mistakes
Assuming cancellation is immediate
Many users expect instant termination but web cancellations remain active until the billing period ends. Check the cancellation confirmation and date.
Missing proof of charge
Not saving payment receipts, order IDs or screenshots makes refunds and disputes harder to resolve. Always keep evidence of subscription charges.
Using the wrong cancellation channel
Canceling through a payment platform (App Store/Google Play) instead of Pdfhouse’s web account can leave the web subscription active. Verify which account was billed.
