Cancel MAVTV: The Right Way

How to cancel your MAVTV subscription in canada and avoid surprise charges

Understanding MAVTV and your right to cancel

MAVTV is a motorsports-focused streaming service that delivers live racing events, archived competition footage, and exclusive programming to fans across North America. You can access it directly through their website, via the mobile app, or through third-party platforms like Apple and Google Play. The service appeals to racing enthusiasts who want round-the-clock access to motorsports content, but like any subscription, it may no longer fit your viewing habits or budget.

As a Canadian consumer, you have the right to cancel any subscription service at any time. Whether you've finished watching your favourite races, found a better alternative, or simply want to cut back on streaming costs, cancelling MAVTV is straightforward once you know the correct process. At Tocancel, we help you navigate cancellation with confidence and understand your consumer rights.

What MAVTV offers

MAVTV provides two subscription tiers designed for different viewing preferences. The Standard plan gives you 24/7 access to the MAVTV linear channel with live broadcasts and delayed replays. The Premium tier adds next-day on-demand video access and exclusive live racing event coverage. You can choose between monthly and annual billing cycles, and you may have purchased through their website (mavtvgo.com) or a third-party app store.

Common reasons to cancel MAVTV

You might cancel because you've finished watching your must-watch races, the monthly cost no longer justifies your usage, you prefer another motorsports platform, or you're consolidating streaming services to save money. Whatever your reason, you deserve clear information about your options. Tocancel ensures you understand exactly what happens to your account after cancellation and how to protect yourself from unexpected charges.

MAVTV pricing and subscription plans in canada

Before you cancel, review your current plan to understand your billing cycle and what you'll lose access to after cancellation.

When your billing renews and what cancellation means

If you pay monthly, your subscription renews automatically on the same date each month. Annual subscribers are charged once per year on their renewal date. This is important: cancelling mid-cycle does not give you a refund for unused days unless MAVTV approves it on a case-by-case basis. You will retain access to MAVTV content until the end of your current billing period, even after you submit your cancellation request. After that date, your access stops completely.

Why you should cancel before your next billing date

Stopping automatic renewals is the fastest way to avoid unexpected charges on your credit card or bank account.

The cost of waiting

If you pay $7.99 per month and forget to cancel before your next renewal date, you'll be charged for another full month. Annual subscribers who delay can face charges of $79.99 or $199.99 without warning. These charges often go unnoticed for weeks or even months, which is why Tocancel recommends you cancel as soon as you've decided the service no longer works for you. The sooner you take action, the sooner you stop automatic billing.

The importance of keeping proof

After you cancel, MAVTV should send you a confirmation email. Keep this email in your records for at least one billing cycle. If MAVTV charges you again after cancellation, you'll have proof that you requested the cancellation. This proof is essential if you need to dispute the charge with your bank or credit card company.

How to cancel MAVTV on your platform

Your cancellation method depends on where you originally purchased your MAVTV subscription.

Cancel MAVTV by registered mail

If you cannot cancel online or prefer to cancel in writing, you have the right to send a formal cancellation letter via registered mail (raccomandata) to MAVTV's corporate headquarters. This method creates a paper trail and is particularly useful if you encounter resistance from the company.

1. Write a letter stating your full name, email address, account creation date, and a clear statement: "I request immediate cancellation of my MAVTV subscription, effective today."
2. Include your current subscription plan (Standard or Premium) and the email address associated with your account.
3. Send the letter via registered mail to: MAVTV, Brownsburg, Quebec (you may need to contact MAVTV support to confirm the current mailing address).
4. Keep the registered mail receipt as proof of sending.
5. MAVTV should respond within 10 business days to confirm cancellation.
6. If you don't receive confirmation, follow up with screenshots of your registered mail receipt.

Your consumer rights under canadian law

As a Canadian consumer, the Competition Act and provincial consumer protection legislation give you specific rights when cancelling subscriptions.

Your legal position

Under the Competition Act (administered by the Competition Bureau), companies must clearly disclose all subscription terms before you pay, including renewal dates, cancellation methods, and any fees. They must also make cancellation as easy as subscription. If MAVTV charges you after you cancel, or if they fail to cancel your subscription within a reasonable timeframe (typically 14 days), you can file a complaint with your provincial consumer protection authority or the Competition Bureau. In Canada, you can cancel any subscription at any time. You do not need a reason, and the company cannot refuse your cancellation request or require you to provide one.

What the competition bureau does

If MAVTV refuses to cancel your account, charges you after you cancel, or makes cancellation deliberately difficult, you can file a complaint with the Competition Bureau's online complaint form at competitionbureau.gc.ca. The Bureau investigates complaints about unfair subscription practices and can force companies to refund unauthorized charges. This is your enforcement tool if MAVTV ignores your cancellation request.

What happens after you cancel MAVTV

Understanding what changes after cancellation helps you avoid confusion and prevents unwanted charges.

Your access during the grace period

You retain full access to MAVTV content until the end of your current billing cycle. If your monthly renewal date is the 15th and you cancel on the 5th, you can still watch MAVTV until the 15th. This applies whether you cancel online, through an app store, or by registered mail. After the grace period ends, MAVTV removes your login and you lose all access.

Refunds and unused credits

MAVTV does not automatically refund unused time if you cancel mid-cycle. However, you can request a refund on a case-by-case basis by contacting their support team within 30 days of cancellation. Your refund is more likely to be approved if you cancel within 14 days of your initial purchase (this is often called the "cooling off" period under Canadian consumer law). If MAVTV charged you by mistake after you cancelled, you have the right to request a full refund of that unauthorized charge.

Reactivating your account

If you change your mind after cancellation, you can reactivate your MAVTV subscription anytime. Log back into your account on mavtvgo.com or through your app store and select "Resubscribe". You'll be charged at MAVTV's current rates, which may differ from your original plan.

Common mistakes when cancelling MAVTV

Many people cancel in the wrong place, forget to confirm, or overlook their grace period, which leads to unnecessary charges and frustration.

Mistake 1: cancelling in the wrong location

If you bought MAVTV through Apple, cancelling on MAVTV's website won't work. Apple manages your subscription, so you must cancel through the App Store. Similarly, Google Play subscriptions must be cancelled in the Google Play Store app, not on MAVTV's website. Check your credit card or bank statement to see which platform charged you. That's where you cancel.

Mistake 2: not saving your cancellation confirmation

After you cancel, MAVTV sends a confirmation email. If you delete this email or lose it, you have no proof you cancelled if MAVTV charges you again. Save the email, take a screenshot, or print it. Tocancel advises you to keep this proof for at least two billing cycles.

Mistake 3: assuming cancellation is instant

Cancellation stops future automatic charges, but you keep access until your current billing period ends. If you cancel on the 1st of the month but your renewal date is the 30th, you still have access until the 30th. This is not a mistake by MAVTV; it's how subscriptions work. Plan accordingly if you want immediate access removal.

Mistake 4: not checking if a third-party platform charged you

Some people sign up for MAVTV through a bundle or third-party reseller and forget. If you're unsure which platform manages your subscription, check your recent credit card or bank statement. The name of the company that charged you is the platform where you must cancel. Tocancel recommends checking your last three statements if you're uncertain.

Comparison of cancellation methods

Each cancellation method has different timelines and proof levels. Choose based on your comfort level and need for documentation.

Checklist before you cancel MAVTV

Use this checklist to ensure you don't miss any important steps.

• Confirm which platform charged you (MAVTV website, Apple, or Google Play).
• Note your current billing cycle end date (check your last email receipt or account settings).
• Download or screenshot your current subscription plan and price.
• Check if you have any unused MAVTV credits or trials remaining (you may want to use these first).
• Complete your cancellation through the correct platform.
• Save the confirmation email or screenshot for your records.
• Set a reminder for 2 days after your billing cycle ends to confirm no charge appears on your account.
• If MAVTV charges you again, immediately dispute the charge with your bank or credit card company.

What to do if MAVTV won't cancel your subscription

Most cancellations process without issue, but if MAVTV refuses or ignores your request, you have legal recourse.

Step 1: document everything

Take screenshots of your cancellation request, the error message (if any), and your account showing the active subscription. Save all emails from MAVTV, including support responses. This documentation is your evidence.

Step 2: contact MAVTV support directly

Email MAVTV's support team (usually [email protected]) with a clear message: "I submitted a cancellation request on [date] but my account is still active. Please confirm cancellation immediately." Include your account email, subscription plan, and a copy of your original cancellation proof. Request a response within 5 business days.

Step 3: dispute unauthorized charges

If MAVTV charges you again after you cancel, contact your bank or credit card company within 60 days. Provide them with your cancellation proof and explain that the charge is unauthorized. Your bank can reverse the charge (called a chargeback) and investigate MAVTV. This is fast and often successful.

Step 4: escalate to the competition bureau

If MAVTV continues to charge you after cancellation and your bank cannot help, file a formal complaint with the Competition Bureau at competitionbureau.gc.ca. Include your cancellation proof, screenshots of charges, bank statements, and all correspondence with MAVTV. The Bureau investigates and can force MAVTV to refund you and change its practices.
