Cancel Ownerly: The Right Way

How to cancel Ownerly and avoid hidden subscription charges in singapore

What is Ownerly and why investors cancel

Ownerly is a subscription-based property intelligence platform that delivers off-market listings, detailed property reports, and market analysis tools for real estate investors and agents across Singapore and the broader Asia-Pacific region. The service is designed to help you access competitive market data and make faster, more informed investment decisions.

Your subscription begins with an affordable trial period (typically 7 days for around SGD 1.35) and then automatically converts to a paid monthly plan unless you actively cancel before the trial expires. This auto-renewal model catches many users by surprise. Whether you've discovered the reports don't align with your investment strategy, the monthly fees don't justify the features, or you've simply found a better alternative tool, Tocancel is here to guide you through the cancellation process with clarity and confidence.

Who uses Ownerly and what they pay for

Ownerly attracts property professionals, individual investors, and real estate agents who need competitive market intelligence. Your subscription grants access to unlimited property reports, portfolio analysis tools, and exclusive off-market leads. However, casual property researchers or investors working exclusively with local agents may find the monthly subscription cost difficult to justify against the actual value they extract from the platform.

The auto-renewal model and why you need to act now

Your trial converts automatically to a paid monthly subscription unless you submit a cancellation request before the trial period ends. This is the moment when most users lose track and end up charged SGD 51.30 or more per month without realising it. Set a phone reminder for day 5 of your trial to ensure you don't miss the deadline, and contact Ownerly's support team immediately if you know you won't continue past the trial period.

Ownerly pricing and subscription costs in singapore dollars

Ownerly lists pricing in USD, but your actual charges reflect your bank's exchange rate and your App Store region setting.

The key insight: if you cancel before your trial expires, you avoid the monthly charge entirely. The window to act is narrow, so contact Ownerly's support team within the first 6 days of signing up to ensure your cancellation is processed before renewal.

Your consumer rights under singapore law

As a consumer in Singapore, you are protected by the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act (CPFTA), which gives you clear rights when purchasing services like Ownerly. Understanding these rights empowers you to cancel with confidence and escalate complaints if the company doesn't cooperate.

What the consumer protection (Fair trading) act means for you

The CPFTA, enforced by the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS), protects you from unfair contract terms and misleading practices. This means Ownerly cannot:

• Hide auto-renewal terms in dense small print or bury cancellation instructions on a hard-to-find page
• Make it deliberately difficult to cancel (for example, requiring a phone call when email or web cancellation would be simpler)
• Charge you after you've submitted a valid cancellation request, provided the request was made before the renewal date
• Refuse a refund without legitimate reason when you cancel within a cooling-off period

Your legal position is straightforward: you have the right to cancel your subscription at any time, and Ownerly must honour a valid cancellation request submitted before the renewal date. If the company refuses or charges you after cancellation, you can file a complaint with the CCCS, which investigates on your behalf at no cost to you.

The cooling-off period and your refund entitlement

While the CPFTA does not specify a mandatory cooling-off period for all digital services, Ownerly's Terms and Conditions may outline your cancellation and refund rights. Review your trial receipt and terms carefully: if you cancel within 7 days of the trial charge (before auto-renewal kicks in), you have a strong case for a full refund. If you cancel after the monthly subscription has renewed, refund eligibility depends on Ownerly's stated policy and the number of days elapsed in that billing cycle.

How to cancel Ownerly in four direct methods

You have four cancellation channels available, and all are designed to document your request in writing so you have a record. Choose the method that best suits your schedule and communication preference.

Method 1: cancel via the Ownerly website contact form

1. Open your web browser and navigate to the Ownerly website or log into your account.
2. Scroll to the footer and click "Contact Us".
3. Select "Cancel My Account" from the dropdown menu or form category.
4. Fill in your details and write your cancellation message:
   • Enter your registered email address or 9-digit member ID
   • Type: "I wish to cancel my Ownerly subscription effective immediately. Please confirm once the cancellation is processed."
   • Submit the form and note the submission timestamp
5. Expect a confirmation email within 24 business hours.
6. If no confirmation arrives within one business day, escalate immediately via email (see Method 2 below).

This method leaves a clear digital trail and is ideal if you prefer written documentation before speaking to anyone by phone.

Method 2: email support directly at the official address

1. Compose an email to [email protected] with the subject line "Cancellation Request - [Your Email Address]".
2. Include the following in your message body:
   • Your full name and registered email address
   • Your 9-digit member ID (found in your account settings or trial receipt)
   • The date you signed up and the trial expiry date
   • A clear statement: "I request immediate cancellation of my Ownerly subscription effective today. Please confirm once the cancellation is processed and no further charges will be applied."
3. Send the email and retain a copy for your records.
4. Wait for a response within 24 hours.
5. If you don't hear back within one business day, escalate via live chat or phone (see methods below).

Email is the fastest and most professional method because it creates a timestamped record that protects you if any dispute arises later.

Method 3: contact Ownerly via live chat

1. Log into your Ownerly account on the website or app.
2. Look for a "Chat" or "Help" icon (usually in the bottom right corner).
3. Click to open the live chat widget and type your cancellation request: "I want to cancel my subscription effective immediately."
4. The support agent will likely ask for your member ID and registered email to verify your account.
5. Request that they send you a cancellation confirmation email once the request is processed.
6. Screenshot the chat conversation for your records.

Live chat is fastest for immediate acknowledgment, but follow up with an email confirmation request so you have written proof of the cancellation date.

Method 4: call ownerly's customer support line

1. Call the Ownerly support phone number: 1-888-212-8460 (note: this is a US-based number; international rates may apply).
2. Have your member ID, registered email, and account sign-up date ready when you call.
3. Clearly state: "I would like to cancel my subscription effective immediately. Please provide a cancellation confirmation number."
4. Take notes of the support agent's name, the date and time of the call, and any confirmation number provided.
5. Ask the agent to email you a cancellation confirmation within 24 hours and provide their email address.
6. Follow up with an email to [email protected] if you don't receive written confirmation within one business day.

Phone cancellation is the slowest method for obtaining written proof, so always request and wait for email confirmation before assuming your cancellation is complete.

What to do immediately after you cancel

Cancelling is only half the battle; confirming the cancellation and protecting yourself against unexpected charges is equally important. Take these steps within 24 hours of submitting your cancellation request.

Steps to take after cancellation

• Check your email (including spam and promotions folders) for a cancellation confirmation from [email protected].
• If you don't receive confirmation within 24 hours, send a follow-up email or use live chat to request written proof.
• Review your app or account dashboard: it should display "Account Closed" or "Subscription Cancelled" next to your subscription status.
• Monitor your bank or credit card statement for any charges after your cancellation date. If a charge appears, contact your bank immediately and provide your cancellation confirmation as evidence of fraud or unauthorized billing.
• Take a screenshot or PDF of your account dashboard showing the cancellation status and save it in a secure folder for your records.
• If Ownerly charges you after cancellation, file a complaint with the CCCS (see "Escalation" section below).

How to get a refund if you're charged incorrectly

If Ownerly charges you after you've submitted a valid cancellation request, you have legal grounds to demand a refund under the CPFTA.

Requesting a refund after unexpected charges

1. Contact Ownerly's support team with the subject: "Refund Request - Unauthorized Charge on [Date]".
2. Attach or reference your cancellation confirmation email and the date you submitted the cancellation request.
3. State clearly: "I cancelled my subscription on [Date] and received confirmation. A charge of SGD [Amount] appeared on [Charge Date], which is unauthorized. I request a full refund within 7 days."
4. Send this request via email to [email protected] and keep a copy.
5. If Ownerly doesn't respond or refuses within 7 days, escalate to your bank or credit card issuer and request a chargeback, providing your cancellation confirmation as evidence.

Do not delay: most banks allow chargebacks only within 30 to 90 days of the unauthorized charge, so act quickly if you need to dispute the billing with your financial institution.

Escalating to the CCCS if Ownerly refuses

If Ownerly refuses your refund request or fails to respond within a reasonable timeframe (7 to 10 days), you can file a formal complaint with the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore. The CCCS investigates consumer complaints at no cost to you and can compel Ownerly to refund your money if a violation of the CPFTA is found.

• Visit the CCCS website (www.cccs.gov.sg) and click "File a Complaint".
• Provide your cancellation confirmation, the charge amount, and a timeline of your attempts to resolve the issue with Ownerly.
• The CCCS will contact Ownerly and investigate. You will hear back within 4 to 8 weeks.
• If the CCCS finds in your favour, Ownerly will be ordered to refund you, and you may receive compensation for inconvenience.

Common cancellation mistakes to avoid

Cancelling a subscription should be straightforward, but small oversights can delay your request or leave you vulnerable to continued charges. Here are the pitfalls Tocancel has seen catch thousands of consumers.

Mistake 1: assuming your cancellation went through without confirmation

The most dangerous mistake is submitting a cancellation request and assuming it was processed without waiting for written confirmation. Many users cancel via live chat, close the window, and never follow up. If something goes wrong on Ownerly's end, you have no proof you tried to cancel. Always wait for and save a confirmation email before you consider the cancellation complete.

Mistake 2: missing the trial expiry date

Your 7-day trial converts to a paid subscription if you don't cancel by day 7. Some users cancel on day 8 or later, only to find they've already been charged SGD 51.30 for the first month. Set a phone reminder for day 5 of your trial to give yourself a 2-day buffer.

Mistake 3: cancelling via a platform other than ownerly's official channels

If you subscribed via the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, you may believe cancelling your subscription through those platforms will cancel Ownerly. This is a dangerous assumption. App Store cancellations do not always cascade to the merchant's system. Always cancel directly with Ownerly via email, web form, or phone to ensure the cancellation is recorded in their system.

Mistake 4: not checking your bank statement after cancellation

Many users cancel, receive confirmation, and forget to monitor their next billing cycle. If a charge appears after cancellation, you must dispute it immediately with your bank. Don't assume Ownerly will process your refund without pressure; companies often ignore unchallenged chargebacks and assume the user has accepted the fee. Monitor your statement for 60 days after cancellation.

Timeline and cancellation checklist

Use this timeline and checklist to stay on track and ensure nothing falls through the cracks.

Print or screenshot this checklist and mark off each step as you complete it. This documentation will be invaluable if you need to escalate to your bank or the CCCS.

When to keep your Ownerly subscription and when to cancel

Not every user should cancel. This comparison helps you decide whether Ownerly's SGD 51.30 monthly fee justifies the value you receive.

If you ticked three or more boxes in the "Cancel" column, cancelling is the right financial decision. Tocancel recommends reviewing your subscriptions quarterly and keeping only those that deliver measurable value each month.

Your cancellation confirmation address and escalation contacts

If Ownerly's email support becomes unresponsive or refuses your cancellation or refund request, use these official escalation channels to protect your rights.

Ownerly support contacts

• Phone: 1-888-212-8460 (US-based; note international rates may apply from Singapore)

• Live chat: Available in-app and on the website (secondary channel; always follow up with email)

Singapore consumer protection escalation

• Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS): www.cccs.gov.sg | File a complaint if Ownerly fails to honour your cancellation or refund within 10 business days
• Your bank's dispute resolution team: Contact your bank if Ownerly charges you after a valid cancellation; request a chargeback and provide your cancellation confirmation as evidence

Conclusion: take action today with tocancel

Cancelling Ownerly is straightforward once you understand your rights and follow a clear process. You have legal protection under Singapore's Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act, and Ownerly must honour a valid cancellation request submitted before the renewal date. Do not delay: if you're within your trial period, contact Ownerly via email or web form today. If you've already been charged after cancellation, file a complaint with the CCCS immediately.
