Cancel Vedix: Step-by-Step Guide

How to cancel Vedix subscription in malaysia: your rights and step-by-step guide

What is Vedix and why you may want to cancel

Vedix is a personalised hair care and skincare subscription service sold through a quiz-based personalisation model on its Malaysia platform. The service delivers a customised 3-product hair care kit each month at RM199.00 with complimentary shipping, or you can purchase a one-time kit for RM279.00 plus RM40 delivery. Many customers discover only after their first order that Vedix operates on a recurring monthly cycle, which frustrates them when charges continue without a clear cancellation option visible in their account.

You landed here because you either did not expect the recurring charge, want to pause your subscription, or have not found a straightforward cancel button on the Vedix Malaysia website. This guide walks you through your consumer rights, the exact cancellation steps, and how to protect yourself if Vedix charges you again after you request cancellation. Tocancel exists to make this process transparent and empowering for you.

What you are paying for

When you subscribe to Vedix, you commit to a monthly recurring payment, not a one-time purchase. Each month, Vedix sends you a bespoke 3-product kit tailored to your hair type and concerns based on your initial quiz. The subscription price in Malaysia is RM199.00 per month, and the service includes free shipping on all recurring orders. There is no published free trial period, and no minimum lock-in term is clearly stated in the available terms, which means you should assume you are entering a month-to-month recurring agreement from your first order date.

The pricing advantage of the subscription versus the one-time purchase is real: the one-time option costs RM279.00 plus RM40 shipping (RM319.00 total), while the recurring subscription is RM199.00 monthly. However, that savings only matters if you continue to want the product-and if you can cancel without friction when you decide to stop.

Why cancellation matters in malaysia

Under Malaysia's Consumer Protection Act 1999, you have the right to cancel a distance contract (a purchase made online or by post) within 14 calendar days of receiving your goods, provided the seller has given you clear cancellation information at the point of sale. Recurring subscriptions are distance contracts, and Vedix operates under this legal framework. Your right to cancel is not optional-it is a statutory protection built into Malaysian consumer law.

In practice, this means Vedix must allow you to cancel your subscription, and the company cannot prevent you from exercising that right by hiding the cancellation method or making the process unnecessarily difficult. If Vedix continues to charge you after you have clearly requested cancellation, you have grounds to dispute those charges with your bank and escalate the complaint to the Kementerian Perdagangan Dalam Negeri, Koperasi dan Kepercayaan Rakyat (KPDN), Malaysia's trade ministry consumer affairs division.

Your consumer rights when cancelling Vedix

Malaysian consumer law gives you specific protections when you cancel a subscription service, and understanding these rights puts you in a stronger position to enforce them.

Your legal position under the consumer protection act 1999

The Consumer Protection Act 1999 (CPA 1999) grants you a 14-day cooling-off period for distance contracts. This means if you bought Vedix online and did not collect it in person, you can cancel within 14 days of delivery without penalty, provided the goods remain unused and in original condition. This right applies even if the seller's terms say otherwise-the CPA 1999 overrides unfair contract clauses.

For recurring subscriptions like Vedix, the 14-day window begins when you receive your first box. If you cancel within that period, you can request a full refund of your first payment. However, if you cancel after 14 days but before your next billing date, Vedix should not charge you again. The company is obligated to process your cancellation request promptly and confirm that no further charges will occur.

Your legal position is simple: you have paid for goods or a service, you have the contractual right to stop that service, and Vedix must honour your cancellation request without delay or unnecessary conditions. Tocancel advises you to keep all cancellation communications in writing (email) so you have evidence if a dispute arises.

What happens if Vedix refuses to cancel or keeps charging you

If Vedix ignores your cancellation request or continues to charge you after you have asked them to stop, you have several escalation paths. First, request a chargeback or reversal from your bank or credit card company. Most Malaysian banks allow you to dispute unauthorized recurring charges within 90 days of the transaction. You will need to provide your cancellation email to the bank as proof that you asked Vedix to stop.

If the bank dispute does not resolve the issue, you can lodge a formal complaint with KPDN (Kementerian Perdagangan Dalam Negeri, Koperasi dan Kepercayaan Rakyat). KPDN investigates unfair trading practices and can compel Vedix to refund you if the company has breached the CPA 1999. You can file a complaint online at the KPDN website or visit your nearest KPDN office. This escalation step often motivates companies to refund consumers quickly because KPDN carries legal weight.

You also have the right to take Vedix to the Tribunal Tuntutan Pengguna Malaysia (TTPM, Malaysia's Consumer Claims Tribunal) if the disputed amount is under RM5,000. TTPM proceedings are free and faster than civil court, and the tribunal's decision is binding on both you and Vedix. Having this option means Vedix has strong incentive to resolve your complaint directly rather than face a formal tribunal claim.

How to cancel Vedix: step-by-step method

Vedix does not offer a visible "Cancel Subscription" button in your account dashboard on the Malaysia site. Instead, the company requires you to cancel by email. This section walks you through the exact steps to cancel securely and build a clear paper trail.

Prepare your cancellation request

Before you compose your cancellation email, gather the following information from your Vedix account and email receipts. Taking these steps now prevents delays and ensures Vedix processes your request without asking you for missing details.

• Your full name as it appears on your Vedix account.
• Your email address registered with Vedix.
• Your order number (found in your order confirmation email).
• The last four digits of the card you used to pay.
• Your next billing date (check your confirmation email or bank statement).
• Screenshots of your latest Vedix order and any active subscription information in your account.
• Screenshots of your latest payment charge on your bank or credit card statement.

Take these screenshots now and save them to your device or email them to yourself. If Vedix later disputes whether you cancelled on time, these images prove when you checked your account and what your subscription status was. Tocancel recommends you keep a dedicated email folder for all subscription-related correspondence so you can retrieve proof quickly.

Send your cancellation email to Vedix

Vedix processes cancellation requests sent to [email protected]. The company states it will respond within 24 to 48 hours. Use this step-by-step approach to compose a clear, professional email that leaves no room for confusion.

1. Subject line: Write "Cancel Vedix subscription-Order [your order number]". This makes your intent unmistakable and helps Vedix route your email to the right team.
2. Email body: Start with "Dear Vedix Support" and state your request directly in the first sentence: "I am writing to cancel my Vedix subscription effective immediately. Please process this cancellation request and confirm that no further charges will be applied to my account."
3. Provide key details: In separate lines, include:
   • Full Name: [Your name]
   • Account Email: [Your Vedix email]
   • Order Number: [Your order number]
   • Last 4 Card Digits: [e.g., 5678]
   • Next Billing Date: [e.g., 15 November 2024]
4. Add a clear closing statement: "Please confirm receipt of this cancellation request and send me written confirmation that my subscription is cancelled and no future charges will occur. I understand the cancellation may take 24 to 48 hours to process."
5. Attach your screenshots: Include screenshots of your order page and latest charge as attachments to back up your claim.
6. Send and document: Send the email and immediately save a copy (most email clients do this automatically). Note the date and time you sent it. This timestamp proves when you requested cancellation, which is important if Vedix charges you again during the processing window.

Once you click Send, do not assume silence means approval. Vedix says it will respond within 48 hours, but some customers report delays. Set a phone reminder for 2 days after you send your email. If you do not hear back, send a follow-up email with the same information and mark it as "FOLLOW-UP: Cancellation Request [Order Number]".

What to do while you wait for confirmation

After you send your cancellation email, Vedix has up to 48 hours to process your request. During this window, the company should not charge you for the next billing cycle. However, if your next billing date arrives before Vedix confirms the cancellation, you may see a charge go through. This is not a reason to panic.

If you are charged during the processing period, take a screenshot of that charge and send a follow-up email to [email protected] with the subject "Refund Request-Charged after cancellation request, Order [your order number]". Explain that you requested cancellation before this charge and ask for an immediate refund. Include the date and time of your original cancellation email and the screenshot of the unwanted charge. Vedix should refund this charge within 7 to 10 business days.

Tocancel recommends you also contact your bank or credit card company during this waiting period. Inform them that you have requested cancellation from Vedix and ask them to monitor your account for any charges after your cancellation date. Most banks flag recurring charges so they can alert you if a charge appears after you have confirmed cancellation is complete.

Vedix pricing and subscription breakdown

Understanding exactly what Vedix costs helps you decide whether cancellation is the right choice, and it gives you clarity when you are disputing charges with your bank or KPDN.

The monthly subscription saves you RM120.00 compared to a one-time purchase, but only if you intend to order multiple months. If you cancel after your first box, you pay RM199.00 once and avoid all future charges. The subscription model is designed for customer retention, so Vedix makes its real margin on repeat orders. This is why the cancellation process matters: Vedix has a financial incentive to make cancellation difficult, which is precisely why consumer law exists to protect you.

Refunds and what to expect after cancellation

Understanding the refund timeline and conditions prevents frustration and gives you realistic expectations for when your money returns to your account.

Refund eligibility and timeline

If you cancel Vedix within 14 days of delivery and the product is unused and in original condition, you are entitled to a full refund of RM199.00 (or your purchase price) under the Consumer Protection Act 1999. Vedix will process this refund to your original payment method within 10 to 14 business days of confirming your cancellation and receiving your return. Your bank may take a further 3 to 5 business days to credit the refund to your account, so the total time from cancellation request to money back can be 2 to 3 weeks.

If you cancel after 14 days (but before your next billing date), you are not entitled to a refund for the box you have already received. However, Vedix must not charge you again. The 14-day cooling-off period applies only to the first order. Subsequent charges are valid only if you have actively chosen to continue your subscription.

If Vedix charges you after you have cancelled, that charge is unauthorised and you can dispute it. Contact [email protected] immediately with your cancellation email date and the date of the unwanted charge. If Vedix does not refund within 7 business days, escalate to your bank for a chargeback.

How to return your box if eligible for refund

If you cancel within 14 days and want a refund, you must return your unopened or original condition kit to Vedix. Vedix does not publish a return address on its Malaysia website, which is a significant gap. When you cancel by email and request a refund, ask [email protected] for the return shipping address. The company should provide this address in their response email.

Pack the kit securely and send it via registered mail (Pos Malaysia Registered Mail) so you have proof of delivery. Keep your receipt and tracking number. Once Vedix receives and inspects your return, they will process the refund to your original payment method. Do not discard packaging or receipts until the refund has cleared your bank account.

Common mistakes people make when cancelling Vedix

It is frustrating when a cancellation takes longer than expected or charges continue despite your best efforts. Learning from other customers' experiences helps you avoid these pitfalls.

Mistake 1: cancelling only through the Vedix app or chat

Some Vedix customers try to cancel through the mobile app or any chat feature they find. Even if Vedix has a chat option, do not rely on it for cancellation. Chat conversations are easy to lose, hard to screenshot reliably, and are not official records. Always cancel by email to [email protected] so you have an unchangeable written record. Email is the only officially documented cancellation method, and Vedix is legally obliged to respond to email requests in writing.

Mistake 2: not noting your billing date before you cancel

If your next billing date is in 2 days and you send your cancellation email, Vedix might charge you during the 24 to 48-hour processing window. You cannot prevent this, but you can prepare for it. If you are charged before Vedix confirms the cancellation, email them immediately with proof of your cancellation request and ask for a refund. This refund is rightfully yours because you cancelled before the charge date.

Mistake 3: cancelling verbally or through social media

Some customers send cancellation messages via Instagram, Facebook, or other social media. These are not official cancellation channels and Vedix is not obliged to treat them as formal requests. Always use the official email address: [email protected]. Social media messages disappear, get buried, and are not legally binding. Email is permanent and traceable.

Mistake 4: assuming "no reply" means cancellation is done

Vedix says it will respond within 24 to 48 hours, but some customers who do not receive a response assume their cancellation went through. Do not assume silence is consent. If you do not hear back after 48 hours, send a follow-up email. If after 5 business days you still have no response and Vedix charges you again, you have clear evidence of the company's failure to process your request on time. This strengthens your case if you need to escalate to your bank or KPDN.

After cancellation: what happens to your account

Cancellation can feel anticlimactic because Vedix does not make the aftermath clear, and customers worry whether they still have access to their account or past orders.

Your account access after cancellation

When Vedix cancels your subscription, your account remains accessible. You can still log in and view your past orders, delivery history, and the quiz results that guided your customisation. Cancellation only stops future recurring charges; it does not delete your account or your order history. You can log back in at any time if you decide to resubscribe in the future.

Confirmation to expect

Vedix should send you a cancellation confirmation email within 24 to 48 hours of processing your request. This email should state your name, order number, and a clear sentence such as "Your Vedix subscription has been cancelled as of [date]. No further charges will be applied to your account." If you do not receive this confirmation email after 48 hours, follow up immediately. This confirmation is your proof of cancellation and is essential if you later need to dispute a charge or file a complaint with KPDN.

Save this confirmation email in a dedicated folder and do not delete it. If Vedix charges you a month later and claims you never cancelled, this email is your legal defence. Tocancel advises all users to keep subscription confirmation and cancellation emails for at least 2 years after the subscription ends, as consumer disputes can take time to resolve.

How to compare Vedix with other hair care subscriptions

If you are cancelling Vedix because the service did not meet your needs, understanding how it compares to alternatives helps you make a better choice next time.

Vedix is more expensive than multi-category beauty boxes like Bare Box, but the trade-off is personalisation: Vedix uses your hair quiz to select products specifically for your hair type and concerns. If cost is your main reason for cancelling, Bare Box at RM89.00 to RM149.00 per month offers more variety at a lower price. If you want to avoid subscriptions altogether, buying individual products from Watsons or Guardian in Malaysia gives you immediate access with no recurring charges.
