Cancel Linkt: The Right Way

How to cancel Linkt and stop unwanted charges: the complete guide for philippine users

What Linkt is and why philippine users are signing up

Linkt is an Australian toll management service that lets drivers pay road tolls through an online account, a physical tag, or a digital pass instead of paying manually at each toll booth. For most Australian users, this is straightforward. For you in the Philippines, however, the situation is more complex.

You may have created a Linkt account in three different ways. First, you could have signed up directly through the official Linkt website while traveling in Australia or managing a vehicle there. Second, you might have been automatically enrolled through a car rental company when you hired a vehicle in Australia. Third, you could be subscribed to the Linkt app through the Philippine App Store, which offers weekly, annual, and lifetime access options.

The problem arises because these three paths lead to different billing systems and different cancellation routes. A toll account created during a rental works differently from an app subscription purchased through Apple. That confusion is why so many Philippine users report continued charges long after they believed they had cancelled. At Tocancel, we help you navigate exactly these situations.

The Linkt app subscription pricing in the philippines

If you subscribed through the Philippine App Store, you are likely paying one of these three options. Understanding which plan you chose is your first step toward cancelling the right way and stopping unwanted charges.

Once you identify your active plan, you are ready to take action.

Why you might want to cancel Linkt right now

You may be ready to cancel for several legitimate reasons. Your Australian trip has ended and you no longer drive on toll roads. You were charged without remembering you signed up, perhaps through a rental agreement you did not fully read. Your toll account has a lingering balance or disputed charge that frustrates you. You switched to a different toll payment method in Australia. Or you simply want to stop receiving emails and account notifications.

Whatever your reason, Tocancel recognizes that you deserve clarity on how to cancel without facing unexpected future charges. The most common fear among Philippine users is that cancelling through the app store does not actually cancel the underlying toll account, or vice versa. We will show you exactly how to handle both.

Your consumer rights under philippine law

Understanding your legal position protects you before, during, and after cancellation.

The Consumer Act of the Philippines (Republic Act No. 7394) gives you the right to cancel subscriptions and demand refunds if the service provider misrepresented the terms, failed to deliver the service, or continued billing after you clearly requested cancellation. This law applies even if Linkt is an Australian company, because you are a Philippine consumer using a Philippine payment method.

Most importantly, if Linkt continues charging you after you have cancelled, you have the legal right to dispute those charges with your bank or payment provider and file a complaint with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) if the company refuses to refund you. Keep all screenshots, receipts, and cancellation confirmation messages. These become your evidence if you need to escalate.

Tocancel has guided thousands of Philippine users through this exact process. You are not alone, and the law is on your side if the company acts unfairly.

The three cancellation methods and which one applies to you

Your cancellation route depends on how you signed up and how you pay.

Method 1: cancel the Linkt app subscription through the philippine app store

If you subscribed through Apple App Store Philippines or Google Play Store Philippines, you must cancel your subscription directly through your payment platform, not through the Linkt app itself. This method stops the recurring charges immediately.

1. Open the app store where you purchased the subscription
   • For iPhone or iPad users: open the App Store app
   • For Android users: open Google Play Store
2. Navigate to your account or subscription management section
   • iPhone: tap your profile icon, then select "Subscriptions"
   • Android: tap your profile icon, then select "Manage subscriptions"
3. Find the Linkt subscription in your active subscriptions list
4. Tap on the Linkt subscription entry
5. Select "Cancel subscription" or "Unsubscribe"
6. Confirm your cancellation by following the app store's final prompt
   • The app store will ask if you want to downgrade or cancel - select "Cancel" definitively
   • You may be offered a discount to stay - decline unless you plan to continue
7. Take a screenshot of the cancellation confirmation screen showing the date and "Subscription cancelled" status
8. Close the app store and remove the Linkt app from your home screen if you wish

Cancelling through the app store stops billing immediately and is the fastest method for most Philippine users.

Method 2: cancel a Linkt toll account created during a car rental

If you created your account through a rental company (Hertz, Avis, Budget, or similar), that account is separate from any app subscription. You must contact Linkt's customer service directly by mail to request account closure.

1. Locate your Linkt account number or vehicle registration details from your rental receipt or account emails
2. Prepare a formal written request for cancellation that includes:
   • Your full name and contact details
   • Your Linkt account number (if you have it)
   • The vehicle registration number associated with the account
   • The statement "I request immediate cancellation of my Linkt toll account and cessation of all billing"
   • The date you want the cancellation to take effect
3. Mail your cancellation request to the Linkt Customer Resolutions address in Australia:
   • Linkt Customer Resolutions
   • Locked Bag 1003
   • Parramatta, NSW 2124
   • Australia
4. Use registered or tracked mail so you have proof of delivery
5. Keep a copy of your cancellation letter and your tracking number for your records
6. Allow 10 to 14 business days for Linkt to process your request and send you a confirmation email

This method is slower than app store cancellation, but it is the only way to cancel a rental-linked toll account.

Method 3: cancel a standalone Linkt toll account (direct signup)

If you created your Linkt account directly on the Linkt website while in Australia or managing an Australian vehicle, you have two options: contact customer service online or send a formal cancellation letter by mail.

1. Attempt online cancellation first by logging into your Linkt account:
   • Visit the Linkt website and log in with your email and password
   • Navigate to Account Settings or Account Management
   • Look for a "Close account" or "Cancel account" button - not all accounts display this option
   • If you find the button, click it and follow the prompts to confirm
   • Screenshot the confirmation page immediately
2. If no online cancellation option is available, send a formal written cancellation request by mail:
   • Include your Linkt account number, full name, email address, and phone number
   • State clearly: "I request immediate cancellation of my Linkt account effective [today's date]"
   • Mail to Linkt Customer Resolutions at the address above using tracked mail
   • Allow 10 to 14 business days for processing
3. Follow up by email if you do not receive a cancellation confirmation within 21 days

Whichever method you use, you will not owe any further tolls once your account is closed.

What to do immediately after you cancel

Cancellation is not the end of your responsibility - you must verify that it actually took effect.

Step 1: monitor your payment method for 30 days

After you cancel, monitor your credit card, debit card, or Philippine payment app (GCash, PayMaya, etc.) for any further charges from Linkt. Set a phone reminder for 7 days, 14 days, and 30 days after cancellation to check your statements.

If you see a charge after your cancellation date, this is evidence that Linkt did not process your cancellation correctly. Tocancel recommends taking a screenshot immediately and escalating to your bank or payment provider.

Step 2: collect and organize your proof of cancellation

Keep all of the following in one folder (digital or physical) for at least 6 months:

• Screenshots of the cancellation confirmation from the app store or Linkt website
• A copy of any cancellation email from Linkt
• Copies of your bank or credit card statements showing no further charges
• If you sent a cancellation letter by mail, keep the tracking number and a photocopy of the letter
• The date and time you submitted each cancellation request

This documentation is your protection if any dispute arises later.

Step 3: uninstall the Linkt app if you no longer need it

Uninstalling the app does not cancel your subscription or account, but it removes the temptation to use it again. Your app store subscription cancellation is what stops the charges.

How to request a refund for unwanted charges

If Linkt charged you after your cancellation request or if you were billed for a service you never authorized, you have the right to claim a refund.

Refund claim process under philippine consumer law

Your legal position is clear: if you did not authorize the charge or if the service was not delivered, your bank is obligated to reverse it. Follow these steps:

1. Contact your bank or payment provider within 30 days of the disputed charge (this deadline is critical - after 30 days, your claim becomes much harder to prove)
   • Call your bank's customer service or log into your online banking portal
   • Request a "dispute" or "chargeback" for the Linkt transaction
   • Provide the transaction date, amount, and merchant name
2. Submit your evidence to the bank:
   • Your cancellation confirmation (screenshot or email)
   • Screenshots of the charge appearing on your statement
   • Any correspondence with Linkt regarding the cancellation
3. Your bank will contact Linkt and request proof that you authorized the charge
4. If Linkt cannot provide proof of authorization after cancellation, the bank will reverse the charge and refund you within 15 to 30 business days

If your bank declines your dispute, you may escalate to the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) Consumer Protection Group or file a complaint with the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI).

Direct refund request to Linkt

Before involving your bank, try requesting a refund directly from Linkt. Send a formal email or letter stating:

• Your cancellation date and method (app store, email, or mail)
• The charge amount and date you dispute
• A clear request: "Please refund ₱[amount] to my payment method by [date 14 days from now]"
• A deadline: "If I do not receive confirmation of this refund by [date], I will dispute this charge with my bank and file a complaint with the DTI"

Linkt may comply with a professional refund request faster than your bank's chargeback process.

Common mistakes that prevent successful cancellation

Many Philippine users believe they have cancelled when they have not, simply because they took the wrong step or misunderstood how the service works.

Mistake 1: cancelling the app without cancelling the subscription

Simply deleting the Linkt app from your phone does not cancel your subscription. Your app store subscription remains active and will continue to charge you weekly or annually. You must cancel the subscription through the app store itself, not just remove the app. This is the most common error Tocancel sees.

Mistake 2: assuming app store cancellation cancels your toll account

If you have both an app store subscription AND a standalone toll account, cancelling one does not cancel the other. You must cancel both separately. Check whether you have a toll account independent of the app by logging into Linkt's website directly with your email address.

Mistake 3: not following up on mail-based cancellations

If you sent a cancellation letter to the Linkt address in Australia, you cannot assume it arrived or was processed. Linkt's mail handling can be slow. If you do not receive a cancellation confirmation email within 21 days, send a follow-up email to Linkt's customer service or resend your cancellation letter. Do not wait silently and then discover new charges on your statement.

Mistake 4: ignoring small charges thinking they will go away

Some users see a small charge (₱50 or ₱100) and think it is a one-time glitch. These are often toll fees on your account, not subscription charges. Ignoring them does not stop them. Contact Linkt immediately to dispute the charge or request account closure.

Mistake 5: not keeping proof of cancellation

If a dispute arises 2 or 3 months later, you will need to prove when you cancelled and how. Screenshots taken on the day of cancellation are your strongest evidence. Without them, your dispute claim is weaker. Tocancel recommends you screenshot every cancellation action before closing the app or browser.

When to escalate your cancellation complaint

If you have cancelled, waited 21 days, and Linkt continues to charge you, or if Linkt refuses to cancel your account, escalate your complaint immediately.

Step 1: send a final written notice to Linkt

Send a formal email or registered letter stating that you have requested cancellation [number] times on [dates], that you have evidence of those requests, and that you demand the charges stop within 7 days or you will file a regulatory complaint. This "final notice" creates a written record of your attempt to resolve the issue fairly.

Step 2: file a complaint with the department of trade and industry (DTI)

If Linkt does not respond within 7 days, file a formal consumer complaint with the DTI. You can file online at www.dti.gov.ph or in person at your local DTI office. Include:

• All evidence of your cancellation requests
• Screenshots of unwanted charges
• Copies of your bank statements
• A summary of what you are claiming (unauthorized charges, refusal to cancel, etc.)

The DTI will investigate and may force Linkt to refund you and cease billing.

Step 3: dispute the charge with your bank (if you have not already)

Contact your bank or payment provider and report the ongoing unauthorized charges as fraud or unauthorized use. Your bank has an obligation to reverse charges from a company that ignores cancellation requests.

Tocancel has helped thousands of consumers escalate complaints and recover refunds by following these steps methodically. You have the law on your side - use it.

How to avoid Linkt charges in the future

If you have successfully cancelled, protect yourself from re-subscribing by accident.

• Delete the Linkt app from your phone entirely
• Unfollow or mute any Linkt emails or notifications
• If you travel to Australia again, use a rental company that does not auto-enroll you in Linkt (ask before booking)
• Bookmark the Tocancel cancellation guide so you can reference it quickly if you need to cancel another service
• Check your app store subscriptions every 3 months to audit for unwanted renewals

Contacting Linkt for support or further cancellation inquiries

If you need to contact Linkt directly for any reason related to cancellation, use the mailing address below. Note that Linkt does not provide a Philippine customer service number; all formal cancellation requests must be submitted by email or post.

Linkt customer resolutions mailing address

Linkt Customer Resolutions
Locked Bag 1003
Parramatta, NSW 2124
Australia

Send all formal cancellation requests, refund claims, and dispute correspondence to this address. Use Australia Post tracking to confirm delivery.

Alternative address for form-based inquiries

For inquiries related to specific forms or replies, you may reference the Reply Paid option indicated on Linkt commercial forms. However, Tocancel recommends using the Parramatta address above for cancellation, as it is the primary point of contact for account closures.

Summary and your next step

Cancelling Linkt is straightforward once you identify which method applies to you. If you subscribed through the Philippine App Store, open your app store's subscription settings and cancel immediately - this takes 5 minutes and stops charges within 24 hours. If you have a standalone toll account or rental-linked account, send a formal cancellation request by mail to the Linkt Customer Resolutions address in Parramatta, Australia, using tracked postal mail, and monitor your bank statement for 30 days to confirm the charges stop.

Your consumer rights under Philippine law (Republic Act No. 7394) protect you. If Linkt continues billing after you cancel, you can dispute the charge with your bank or escalate to the Department of Trade and Industry. Keep all proof of cancellation, follow up if you do not receive confirmation within 21 days, and do not assume silence means success.
