Cancel Daily Yoga: Step-by-Step Guide

How to cancel Daily Yoga and stop recurring charges in malaysia

What is Daily Yoga and why malaysians are signing up

Daily Yoga is a health and wellness app that offers guided yoga classes, meditation routines, and fitness programmes. The service operates on a subscription model with automatic renewal - meaning your account renews automatically unless you actively switch off renewal at least 24 hours before your billing period ends. This is the critical detail that catches many users off guard when they forget to cancel on time.

For Malaysian users, Daily Yoga presents itself as more than a simple app purchase. You get access to free starter content, optional one-time purchases shown on the Malaysian App Store, and recurring Premium subscriptions that often begin with a 7-day free trial. If you lose track of that trial window, the paid plan kicks in automatically without additional warning - and your card gets charged.

How Daily Yoga bills malaysian users

Daily Yoga can charge you through multiple channels: directly via the app, through Apple App Store, through Google Play, or via the website itself. This fragmented billing structure creates real confusion. One customer reported cancelling through Apple only to discover a renewal charge still processing through the website weeks later. Your cancellation path depends entirely on where you originally signed up, which means cancelling in the wrong place leaves your billing active elsewhere.

The app displays pricing in Malaysian Ringgit on the App Store, with one-time purchases ranging from RM26.90 for Wall Pilates to RM47.90 for the No.1 Yoga App programme. Premium subscriptions typically come in monthly or yearly plans, with the 7-day free trial being the entry point for most new users.

Support and local alternatives in malaysia

Daily Yoga offers customer support through a help centre and email at [email protected], with stated 24/7 availability. However, there is no physical address listed in Malaysia - the company's only verified location is in Xi'an, China. This matters for your consumer rights, which we cover in detail below.

If you are ready to move on, Malaysia has established alternatives. Under The Light offers sessions ranging from RM153 to RM400, The Golden Space Malaysia lists classes around RM35 to RM50 per session, and Yoga Daily Studio operates at approximately RM45 per class. These options give you greater control over recurring charges and often provide more transparent, local support.

Your consumer rights when cancelling Daily Yoga in malaysia

What the consumer protection act 1999 means for you

Malaysia's Consumer Protection Act 1999 (CPA) is your legal foundation for cancelling unfair subscription terms. Under the CPA, traders - including app companies - cannot impose automatic renewal without your explicit prior consent. More importantly, you have the right to cancel within a reasonable time and without undue difficulty or penalty. A 7-day free trial followed by automatic billing qualifies as a subscription requiring clear cancellation rights.

Your legal position is straightforward: you did not agree to be charged indefinitely. The law protects you from hidden or deliberately complicated cancellation processes. If Daily Yoga makes cancellation needlessly hard or charges you after you have clearly cancelled, you have grounds to dispute the charge under the CPA and to seek redress from the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs (MDTCA).

Your right to a refund after cancellation

Under Malaysian consumer law, you have the right to a refund if you cancel within a reasonable period - typically interpreted as 14 days for digital services, though this depends on when you first realised you wanted to cancel. If you are still within the free trial and cancel before the first paid charge processes, you should not be charged at all. If you have already been charged and cancel immediately, you can request a refund citing the CPA.

The key is acting quickly and documenting everything. Take screenshots of your cancellation confirmation, the date you cancelled, and your current billing status. If Daily Yoga refuses a refund, you can escalate to the MDTCA or file a chargeback through your bank - both are valid consumer remedies under Malaysian law.

How to cancel Daily Yoga step by step

Preparation: identify your billing source and timeline

Before you cancel, you need to know exactly where Daily Yoga is billing you and when your next charge is due. This is the difference between a successful cancellation and discovering a mystery charge on your statement three weeks later.

1. Check your latest bank or credit card statement and look for Daily Yoga charges.
2. Note the billing source: is it Apple App Store, Google Play, PayPal, or a direct charge from Daily Yoga?
3. Log into your Daily Yoga account and check your subscription settings for the renewal date and plan type.
4. Take a screenshot of your active plan, renewal date, and any trial status - you will need this for proof if a dispute arises.
5. Save your transaction ID and the exact amount charged so you can reference it later if you need to request a refund.
6. Note the date and time you are cancelling - this matters because Daily Yoga requires cancellation at least 24 hours before renewal.

Cancellation method one: through apple app store (for iPhone or iPad users)

If you signed up through the Apple App Store, you must cancel through Apple as well. Cancelling on the Daily Yoga website or app will not stop an Apple subscription from renewing.

1. On your iPhone or iPad, open the Settings app.
2. Tap your Apple ID at the top of the screen.
3. Select Subscriptions.
4. Find and tap Daily Yoga in the active subscriptions list.
5. Select Cancel Subscription - do not simply pause or hide it.
6. Confirm the cancellation and take a screenshot of the confirmation page showing the subscription is now inactive.
7. Check your email for a cancellation receipt from Apple within minutes.

Cancellation method two: through google play (for android users)

If you use an Android device and subscribed through Google Play, your cancellation must happen through Google Play. Cancelling within the Daily Yoga app alone is not sufficient.

1. Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
2. Tap your profile icon in the top right corner.
3. Select Payments and Subscriptions, then Subscriptions.
4. Tap on Daily Yoga.
5. Select Cancel Subscription.
6. Choose your reason for cancellation and confirm.
7. You will receive a confirmation email from Google - save this as proof.

Cancellation method three: direct cancellation through Daily Yoga website or app

If you signed up directly through the Daily Yoga website or within the app itself (not through Apple or Google), you cancel through Daily Yoga's own platform.

1. Visit dailyyoga.com and log into your account using your email and password.
2. Navigate to Account Settings or Subscription Settings - this is usually found in the menu under Profile or Settings.
3. Find your active subscription or membership plan.
4. Select Cancel Subscription or Stop Renewal.
5. Complete any cancellation survey if prompted (this is optional but helpful - your feedback may improve their process).
6. Confirm the cancellation and screenshot the confirmation page.
7. Check your email for a cancellation confirmation from [email protected] within 24 hours.

What to do if cancellation fails or you receive no confirmation

If the cancellation button does not work, you do not receive a confirmation email within 24 hours, or you see a charge after cancelling, contact Daily Yoga support immediately.

1. Email [email protected] with the subject "Subscription Cancellation Issue" and include:
   • Your account email address
   • Screenshots of your current subscription status before and after your cancellation attempt
   • Your transaction ID and the amount charged
   • The date and time you attempted to cancel
2. Request written confirmation that your subscription has been cancelled and when your final charge will be processed.
3. Give them 5 business days to respond.
4. If they do not respond or you receive another charge, proceed to the refund and dispute section below.

Pricing breakdown and what you are paying for

Understanding Daily Yoga's pricing helps you decide whether to stay or cancel. Here is what Malaysian users typically encounter.

Most users enter through the free trial, forget about it, and then get surprised by the first paid charge. This is why Tocancel emphasises the importance of setting a calendar reminder for 24 hours before your trial ends - it is your most reliable safeguard against unwanted billing.

What happens after you cancel Daily Yoga

Timeline and access after your cancellation

After you cancel, Daily Yoga will typically allow you to access your account and downloaded content until the end of your current billing period. You do not lose access immediately. However, once your billing period ends, you lose access to all premium features and content - you revert to the free tier only.

Here is the typical timeline. You cancel on day 1. You continue to have full Premium access until day 30 (or the end of your monthly cycle). On day 31, your access downgrades to free content automatically. Any downloaded content you saved may still be available on your device, but you cannot download new premium classes. Your account remains active so you can log back in, but premium features are locked.

Requesting your user data after cancellation

Daily Yoga does not clearly explain what happens to your progress, saved workouts, and personal data after you cancel. To protect yourself, download or screenshot your workout history, completed programmes, and any personal notes before cancellation takes effect. If you later want to retrieve this data, contact [email protected] and request a copy of your personal data under Malaysian data protection principles.

You also have the right to request deletion of your account and all associated data. This is a separate step from cancellation - cancelling your subscription keeps your account open; requesting account deletion removes you entirely from Daily Yoga's systems. If you want complete deletion, explicitly ask for this in writing to [email protected].

How to get a refund if Daily Yoga charges you after cancellation

Disputing a charge through your bank

If you cancel correctly and still see a charge on your statement, you have strong grounds to dispute it. Do not assume the charge was a mistake - act immediately because your bank typically has a 60-day window for chargebacks.

1. Gather evidence: your cancellation screenshots, confirmation emails, and bank statements showing the charge.
2. Contact your bank's dispute team or use your bank's mobile app to file a chargeback or merchant dispute.
3. Provide your evidence, explain that you cancelled the subscription, and request a full refund.
4. Your bank will investigate and typically refund you within 7-14 days if your evidence is clear.
5. Keep records of this dispute in case Daily Yoga challenges it.

Direct refund request from Daily Yoga

Before filing a chargeback, try requesting a refund directly from Daily Yoga. Email [email protected] with the subject "Refund Request" and include your transaction ID, the charge amount, the date charged, and proof of cancellation. Give them 10 business days to respond with a refund. Many companies process these quickly to avoid chargebacks.

Escalation to the ministry of domestic trade and consumer affairs (MDTCA)

If Daily Yoga refuses to refund you or does not respond within 10 business days, you can escalate to the MDTCA, which enforces the Consumer Protection Act 1999 in Malaysia. File a complaint on the MDTCA website (mdtca.gov.my) or visit your nearest District Consumer Affairs office. Include your cancellation evidence, the charge, and proof that Daily Yoga ignored your refund request. The MDTCA can order the company to refund you and pay penalties for violation of consumer rights.

Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling Daily Yoga

Many Malaysians cancel in the wrong place, miss the 24-hour window, or fail to follow up - and then are surprised to see another charge weeks later. You can prevent this.

Mistake one: cancelling in the wrong location

The most common error is cancelling in the app or on the Daily Yoga website when you actually subscribed through Apple or Google. Cancelling in one place does not cancel your subscription in another. Always cancel where you originally signed up. Check your bank statement to confirm the billing source before you take action.

Mistake two: missing the 24-hour cancellation window

Daily Yoga requires cancellation at least 24 hours before your renewal date. If you cancel one hour before renewal, your cancellation may not process in time and you will be charged again. Set a phone reminder for two days before renewal - that gives you a safety margin.

Mistake three: confusing pause with cancellation

Some apps offer a pause option instead of true cancellation. Pausing does not cancel your subscription - it temporarily suspends access while keeping your billing active. Always look for a Cancel or End Subscription button, not Pause or Suspend. Read the confirmation screen carefully.

Mistake four: not saving confirmation proof

If you cannot prove you cancelled, you cannot dispute a charge. Screenshot your cancellation confirmation immediately. Save the email confirmation from Apple, Google, or Daily Yoga. Do not rely on memory or assume it worked because the button disappeared.

Comparison: Daily Yoga against local malaysian alternatives

If cancelling Daily Yoga is because the subscription model frustrates you, here are local options that may fit better.

Local studios give you direct relationships with instructors, transparent pricing, and no hidden auto-renewal. If you cancel Daily Yoga, Tocancel recommends exploring at least one in-person option in your area - many offer introductory rates.
