How to cancel Vpnmask in malaysia and stop unwanted charges

What Vpnmask is and why you might want to leave

Vpnmask is a subscription VPN service that encrypts your internet traffic, masks your IP address, and helps you bypass geo-blocks. The service operates on a free trial model followed by automatic billing, which is why thousands of Malaysian users end up searching for cancellation help each month.

How vpnmask's billing trap works

Here is where most people get caught. You sign up for a 7-day free trial, and unless you cancel before that trial ends, Vpnmask automatically converts your account to a paid subscription. The company then charges you monthly at RM47.15 (USD $9.99) and continues charging at the end of every billing cycle unless you actively cancel.

The terms are clear in the service agreement, but the cancellation process itself is deliberately hidden. Vpnmask does not make it easy to find the cancel button, and many users discover they have been charged multiple times before realizing they never actually stopped the subscription.

Who reports problems with Vpnmask in malaysia

Malaysian users commonly report two issues. First, some users claim Vpnmask keeps charging their account even after they believe they have cancelled. Second, phone support is only available in English during Malaysian business hours (Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM GMT+8), which creates a barrier for Malay-speaking users.

This is why Stopee recommends that you keep written proof of every cancellation step. Screenshots, email confirmations, and account page records protect you far better than a phone call alone.

Your rights as a malaysian consumer and what they mean for cancellation

Malaysia's Consumer Protection Act 1999 gives you explicit rights when cancelling a subscription service.

What the consumer protection act 1999 guarantees you

Under the Consumer Protection Act 1999, merchants cannot force you into unfair contract terms. If Vpnmask continues billing you after you have cancelled, or if the cancellation process is unreasonably difficult to locate, you have grounds to dispute the charges with your bank or credit card provider.

Additionally, the Act protects you against misleading advertising and hidden charges. If Vpnmask does not clearly disclose the auto-renewal terms at the point of signup, or if the cancellation method is deliberately obscured, Malaysian consumer authorities can investigate a formal complaint.

How to escalate if Vpnmask refuses to refund you

If you cancel properly and Vpnmask still charges you, you have several escalation routes.

• Contact the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (KPDN) to file a consumer complaint
• Dispute the charge with your bank or credit card issuer within 120 days of the transaction
• Request a chargeback, which reverses the payment and forces Vpnmask to respond to your bank
• Consult the Malaysian Consumer Association (MCA) for free advice on your case

Stopee has seen these escalations work for countless users. Most VPN providers will refund you quickly once they know your bank is investigating.

The clearest way to cancel Vpnmask: step-by-step

Cancellation depends on whether you signed up on the Vpnmask website, the App Store, or Google Play.

How to cancel if you subscribed on the Vpnmask website

This is the most direct cancellation route, and it leaves a paper trail that protects you.

1. Log in to your Vpnmask account at vpnmask.com
   • Use the email address and password you registered with
   • If you have forgotten your password, select "Forgot Password" and reset it via email
2. Navigate to Account Settings or Subscription
   • Look for a menu labeled "Billing", "Subscription", or "Plan"
   • This is usually found in the top-right corner or in the left sidebar
3. Find the "Cancel Subscription" or "Manage Subscription" button
   • Warning: Do not click any buttons labeled "Pause" or "Temporarily Disable" - these do not cancel your subscription
   • You must select "Cancel" explicitly
4. Select your reason for cancellation
   • Vpnmask will ask why you are leaving (optional, but helpful for your record)
   • Be honest if the process is confusing or if you found a cheaper alternative
5. Review the cancellation summary
   • Confirm your next billing date and that it has been moved to "Account Cancelled"
   • Screenshot this page for your records
6. Confirm the cancellation by clicking the final "Confirm Cancellation" button
   • You may receive an email confirmation within minutes
   • Save this email in a folder labeled "Cancellations"

Pro tip: After cancellation, log out and log back in again to verify the account now shows "Cancelled" status. If it still shows an active subscription or a future renewal date, repeat steps 2-6 or contact support immediately with screenshots.

How to cancel if you subscribed through the apple app store

App Store subscriptions are managed separately from the Vpnmask website and require a different process.

1. Open the Apple App Store on your iPhone or iPad
   • Do not open the Vpnmask app itself
2. Tap your profile icon in the top-right corner
   • This is usually your user photo or initials
3. Select "Subscriptions"
   • This shows all active subscriptions tied to your Apple ID
4. Tap "Vpnmask" from the list
   • If you do not see Vpnmask listed, your subscription may have already expired or been cancelled
5. Tap "Cancel Subscription" or "Edit Subscription"
   • Choose "Cancel" (not "Edit Plan" or any other option)
6. Confirm the cancellation
   • Apple will show you the cancellation effective date
   • You will still have access until the end of your current billing period
   • Screenshot the confirmation

Warning: Do not just delete the Vpnmask app from your phone. Deleting the app does not cancel the subscription - Apple will continue charging you automatically.

How to cancel if you subscribed through google play

Google Play subscriptions are managed in your Google account settings and must be cancelled there, not in the app.

1. Open the Google Play Store app or visit play.google.com on your browser
   • Make sure you are logged into the Google account you used to subscribe
2. Tap your profile icon in the top-right corner
   • On a browser, this is usually in the upper-right area
3. Select "Payments and Subscriptions"
   • On some devices, this menu item may be labeled "Manage Subscriptions"
4. Tap "Manage Subscriptions"
   • This shows all your active Google Play subscriptions
5. Select "Vpnmask" from the list
   • If Vpnmask does not appear, check under "Expired" or "Cancelled" tabs
6. Tap "Cancel Subscription"
   • Google will ask you to confirm and may offer a retention discount
   • Ignore any discounts - your goal is to cancel, not to negotiate
7. Confirm the cancellation date
   • Screenshot the confirmation showing "Subscription Cancelled"

Pro tip: Google and Apple send cancellation confirmation emails to your registered email address. Check your inbox and spam folder for these emails - they are your proof of cancellation.

What happens to your money and refund timeline

Refund eligibility depends on when you cancel and whether Vpnmask has already charged you for the next billing cycle.

Refund scenarios and what you can expect

How to request a refund from Vpnmask

If you cancelled within 14 days of your first charge and Vpnmask has not yet refunded you, contact their support team directly.

1. Email vpnmask support with your account details
   • Subject line: "Refund request for account [your email address]"
   • Include: your registration email, transaction ID, and the date you cancelled
   • Attach: screenshots of your cancellation confirmation
2. Reference the Consumer Protection Act 1999
   • Write: "I am entitled to a refund under the Consumer Protection Act 1999 for a subscription cancelled within 14 days of purchase."
3. Allow 5 business days for a response
   • Vpnmask's support hours are Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM GMT+8
   • If you email after 6:00 PM, expect a reply by the next business day
4. If Vpnmask refuses or ignores your request, escalate to your bank
   • File a chargeback claim with your credit card or bank
   • Provide all screenshots and email records to your bank

Stopee recommends keeping a separate folder with all cancellation receipts, refund requests, and bank communications. This paper trail is essential if you need to escalate to consumer authorities.

Pricing and how Vpnmask compares to alternatives

Understanding what you are paying helps you decide whether cancellation makes sense or if switching to another provider is better.

Vpnmask pricing and billing terms

How Vpnmask stacks up against competitors in malaysia

Vpnmask's RM47.15 monthly price places it in the upper-middle range of the VPN market. If you are paying that much, you deserve a cancellation process that is transparent and support that responds quickly. Stopee has reviewed dozens of VPN cancellations, and we consistently find that Surfshark and NordVPN make it easiest to cancel without disputes.

Common mistakes people make when cancelling Vpnmask

Cancellation frustration often comes from small errors that compound into bigger problems.

The errors that lead to double charges and confusion

It is easy to feel defeated when you think you have cancelled but you get charged again. These mistakes happen to hundreds of Malaysian users each month, and they are all preventable.

• Mistake 1: Confusing "pause" with "cancel". Pausing your subscription stops access temporarily, but the billing continues. You must click "Cancel" explicitly to stop all charges.
• Mistake 2: Only cancelling on one platform. If you subscribed on the App Store and then also signed up through the website, you have two active subscriptions. You must cancel both to stop all charges.
• Mistake 3: Not saving proof of cancellation. If Vpnmask charges you after cancellation and you have no screenshots, your bank will side with Vpnmask. Always screenshot the confirmation page.
• Mistake 4: Waiting for a refund that does not arrive. If Vpnmask does not refund you within 10 business days, file a chargeback immediately. Do not wait for Vpnmask to respond a second time.
• Mistake 5: Calling support without an email record. Vpnmask's phone support is English-only and has no official recording. Always follow up a phone call with an email confirming what you discussed.
• Mistake 6: Cancelling too late. If you cancel one day after your renewal date, you have lost RM47.15. Cancel a few days before your renewal date to avoid this.

What to do after you cancel Vpnmask

Your cancellation does not end the moment you click the button - there are follow-up steps that protect you.

Actions to take in the days after cancellation

1. Verify your account shows "Cancelled" status
   • Log in to Vpnmask 24 hours after cancellation
   • Check that your subscription page no longer shows an active plan or renewal date
   • Take another screenshot
2. Check your bank or credit card statement
   • Wait 5-7 business days for your statement to update
   • Confirm that no new Vpnmask charges appear after your cancellation date
   • If a charge appears, file a dispute immediately with your bank
3. Save all cancellation emails and screenshots together
   • Create a folder on your computer or cloud storage labeled "Vpnmask Cancellation"
   • Store: account registration email, cancellation confirmation, screenshot of cancelled status, and any refund correspondence
   • Keep this folder for at least 12 months
4. Set a calendar reminder for 30 days after cancellation
   • On day 30, Vpnmask permanently deletes your user data
   • If you need to export anything (saved settings, device lists), request it before then
5. If you want a new VPN, install it before deleting the Vpnmask app
   • Do not rely on Vpnmask for access during the transition
   • Set up your new VPN first to avoid interruptions

Stopee recommends that you also review your email address and password security. If you used a weak password with Vpnmask, change that password immediately - do not reuse it for other services.
