Cancel Our Family Wizard: The Right Way

How to cancel Our Family Wizard in australia and reclaim your money

Why you might want to cancel Our Family Wizard

Our Family Wizard is a secure co-parenting platform that helps separated or divorced parents manage shared calendars, message records, expense tracking and family documents in one centralised space. Many parents rely on it when courts or family law practitioners recommend a documented, tamper-proof record of co-parenting arrangements.

You purchase Our Family Wizard through direct subscription at ourfamilywizard.com or via app marketplaces like Apple App Store and Google Play. Your subscription auto-renews unless you actively cancel it before the renewal date. This means unexpected charges can appear on your credit card or Apple account if you forget to turn off auto-renewal, even if you stopped using the service months ago.

Your co-parenting situation may have changed, you might prefer a free alternative, or you could find the interface difficult to navigate. Whatever your reason for cancelling, Tocancel is here to guide you through the process step-by-step so you stay in control of your billing and recover any money you are owed.

Common reasons to cancel

Parents cancel Our Family Wizard for many valid reasons: co-parenting arrangements have resolved, disputes with the other parent are settled, or you have found a more affordable solution. Others cancel because customer support has not responded to billing questions promptly, or they discover they were charged for a renewal they did not authorise. Some users find that the service no longer meets their changing family circumstances.

Your reason for cancelling is your own, and Tocancel recognises that you deserve a straightforward, stress-free process to exit the service.

Your consumer rights in australia

Under the Australian Consumer Law, you have the right to cancel a subscription within a reasonable time if the service fails to meet your expectations or does not match what was promised at the point of sale. Unsolicited billing (charges that appear without your clear consent to that specific charge) is prohibited under the law.

Your legal position is clear: if Our Family Wizard charges you without your authorisation, you can dispute the charge with your bank or payment provider and request a reversal. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) enforces these rights. If the company refuses a refund or does not respond to your cancellation request, you can escalate the matter to the ACCC as your final recourse.

Keep records of all communications, screenshots of your account settings, and your bank statements as evidence when you need to prove your case.

How to cancel Our Family Wizard on the website

If you purchased your subscription directly through ourfamilywizard.com, you cancel by logging in to your account and toggling off auto-renewal in your billing settings.

Step-by-step cancellation via the website

1. Visit ourfamilywizard.com and log in with your email address and password.
   • If you have forgotten your password, click 'Forgot Password' and follow the reset link sent to your email.
2. Click on your profile name or avatar in the top right corner, then select 'My Account' or 'Account Settings'.
   • Look for a menu option in the top navigation bar or a profile dropdown.
3. Select 'Billing' or 'Subscription' from the left-hand menu.
   • You should see your active subscription plan and the auto-renewal toggle.
4. Locate the toggle or switch next to 'Auto Renew' and click it to turn it off.
   • You should see a confirmation message saying auto-renewal is now disabled.
   • The toggle colour should change (often from green to grey) to confirm the change.
5. Take a screenshot of the confirmation screen showing auto-renewal is turned off.
   • This screenshot is your proof of cancellation if any disputes arise later.
6. Check your email for a confirmation message from Our Family Wizard.
   • If you do not receive a confirmation within 24 hours, contact the company directly to verify the cancellation went through.

Turning off auto-renewal on the website is the fastest method because you control it immediately and can confirm the change in real-time.

What happens after you turn off auto-renewal

Once you turn off auto-renewal, your subscription continues until the end of your current billing period. You retain access to your account and all co-parenting records for the remainder of that period. After the final billing cycle ends, your account access will be restricted unless you manually reactivate the subscription.

Our Family Wizard will not charge you again after the current subscription period expires, as long as auto-renewal remains switched off.

How to request a refund from Our Family Wizard

Cancelling your subscription does not automatically return money you have already paid, but you may be eligible for a refund under Australian Consumer Law if certain conditions are met.

Refunds for website subscriptions

If you purchased your subscription directly through ourfamilywizard.com, you may request a refund within 30 days by submitting a request through the refund form on the website. This timeframe allows you to cancel and reclaim your money if the service fails to meet your expectations or did not match what was promised.

To request a refund within 30 days, log into your account, navigate to the 'Billing' section, and look for a 'Request Refund' or 'Return Policy' link. Complete the form with your reason for the refund, and submit it. Our Family Wizard should respond within 10 business days. If the company refuses or does not respond, escalate your complaint to the ACCC.

Refunds for app store and google play subscriptions

If you purchased through Apple App Store or Google Play, you request refunds through your payment provider, not Our Family Wizard directly.

For Apple App Store: open App Store, tap your profile icon, tap your name, tap 'Media and Purchases', scroll to the purchase you want to refund, swipe left on it, and tap 'Report a Problem'. Apple allows refund requests within 90 days in most cases.

For Google Play: open Google Play Store, tap your profile icon, tap 'Payments and subscriptions', tap 'Manage subscriptions', find Our Family Wizard, tap it, then tap 'Report a Problem'. Google typically allows refund requests within 48 hours of purchase, though it may grant refunds up to 90 days in certain circumstances.

Apple and Google process refunds to your original payment method (credit card or bank account) within 3-5 business days after approval.

Refund eligibility and what to do if you are refused

You are entitled to request a refund if the service did not match the description, failed to meet a standard of quality, or you were not given clear information about billing and auto-renewal at the point of sale. Under the Australian Consumer Law, you do not need to accept a company's refusal if their reasons are not legally valid.

If Our Family Wizard or your payment provider refuses your refund request, collect all evidence: screenshots of your account, the transaction confirmation, emails from the company, and a description of why the service did not meet your expectations. Contact the ACCC's consumer complaints service or lodge a dispute with your bank if you paid by credit card (banks can reverse charges under credit card protection rules).

Your subscription pricing and billing timeline

Understanding Our Family Wizard's pricing structure and renewal dates helps you plan your cancellation and refund timeline.

Prices may vary depending on whether you purchase as a single parent or co-parent household. Always check your invoice or account settings to confirm your exact billing date and subscription tier.

Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling

Cancelling should be straightforward, but many Australian consumers make preventable mistakes that delay their refunds or leave them vulnerable to continued charges.

Mistake 1: cancelling only the app, not the subscription

Deleting the Our Family Wizard app from your phone does not cancel your subscription. Your payment continues to auto-renew even though you no longer have the app installed. You must actively turn off auto-renewal in your account settings (either via the website or your payment provider) to stop charges.

Mistake 2: assuming cancellation is instant

Turning off auto-renewal stops future charges, but it does not immediately terminate your current subscription or grant instant access to a refund. You retain access until the end of your current billing period, after which your account access is restricted. If you need immediate access termination, contact Our Family Wizard support directly.

Mistake 3: not requesting a refund within 30 days

Our Family Wizard allows refund requests only within 30 days of purchase through their website. If you cancel your subscription on day 31, you forfeit your refund eligibility (unless the service was faulty or misrepresented). Mark your calendar and submit refund requests as soon as you decide the service is not for you.

Mistake 4: losing your cancellation proof

Take screenshots of every cancellation confirmation, refund request, and auto-renewal toggle switch. These are your proof if Our Family Wizard claims you never cancelled or if a dispute arises with your bank. Save confirmation emails from Our Family Wizard, Apple, or Google Play in a folder for easy retrieval.

Mistake 5: not escalating to the ACCC if the company refuses

If Our Family Wizard denies your cancellation or refund despite your evidence, many consumers give up. You do not need to accept the company's refusal. Tocancel recommends escalating unresolved complaints to the ACCC within 12 months of the dispute. The ACCC investigates breaches of the Australian Consumer Law and can force companies to refund money or correct unfair practices.

What to do after you cancel Our Family Wizard

Cancelling is just the first step. Protecting your account, documenting the process, and monitoring your billing ensure you do not face unexpected charges or disputes down the line.

Secure your account data before access is lost

Once your subscription expires, you lose access to all co-parenting records, shared calendars, and expense history stored in Our Family Wizard. If you need to preserve this information, download or screenshot important documents, shared schedules, and communication records before your final billing period ends. Some co-parents print or export key documents as a permanent record for legal purposes.

Monitor your bank statements and payment methods

Watch your credit card or Apple account for any unexpected charges from Our Family Wizard in the weeks following your cancellation. If a charge appears after you have turned off auto-renewal, contact the company immediately with your cancellation proof. If they refuse to reverse the charge, escalate to your bank (credit card chargeback) or payment provider (Apple/Google dispute).

Document your cancellation for tocancel records

If you used Tocancel to guide you through the cancellation, keep records of your experience. Your feedback helps Tocancel improve its service and guides other Australian consumers through similar situations. Tocancel is built by consumers, for consumers, and real-world experiences strengthen our resources.

When to escalate: your rights under australian consumer law

Most cancellations proceed smoothly, but some consumers encounter unresponsive companies, unfair refusal practices, or continued charges after cancellation. The Australian Consumer Law provides clear remedies if Our Family Wizard breaches these rights.

When to contact the ACCC

Contact the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission if Our Family Wizard refuses to cancel your subscription after you have submitted a clear cancellation request, charges you after you have turned off auto-renewal, denies a refund without a legally valid reason, or does not respond to your complaints within 10 business days.

The ACCC investigates complaints and can pursue enforcement action against the company, including issuing infringement notices, seeking undertakings to stop unfair practices, or referring matters to civil courts for compensation. You do not need to pay a fee to lodge a complaint with the ACCC; the service is free to Australian consumers.

How to lodge an ACCC complaint

Visit the ACCC website at accc.gov.au, click 'Report a Consumer Scam or Unfair Trader', and fill in the online complaint form. Provide your subscription details, dates of charges, cancellation attempts, and evidence (screenshots, emails, bank statements). The ACCC uses complaints to identify patterns of unfair conduct and prioritise investigations.

You can also contact your state or territory consumer affairs authority directly. In New South Wales, contact NSW Fair Trading; in Victoria, contact the Victorian Consumer Law Enforcement Agency; and so on for each state. These bodies have similar powers to investigate and enforce consumer rights.

Your right to dispute charges with your bank

If Our Family Wizard continues to charge you after cancellation, you have a legal right to dispute the charge with your bank (if you paid by credit card) or your payment provider (if you paid via Apple/Google). Your bank can reverse the charge and investigate whether the transaction was authorised. This process is called a chargeback, and it is a powerful consumer protection tool under Australian payment law.

Your legal position is firm: companies cannot continue charging you after you have clearly cancelled, and if they do, your payment provider is obliged to protect you by reversing the charge.

After cancellation: alternatives to Our Family Wizard

If you cancelled because Our Family Wizard no longer fits your needs, free or lower-cost alternatives exist for co-parenting communication and scheduling.

Many Australian families find that free tools (Google Calendar, Gmail, Shared folders) meet their needs just as well as paid services. Consider your actual requirements before committing to a new paid subscription.
