Cancel Icare: The Right Way
How to cancel Icare and stop recurring charges in malaysia
What Icare is and why cancellation matters to you
Icare positions itself as a subscription-based healthcare and wellness software platform, offering tiered plans designed for medical professionals and clinics across Malaysia. You may have signed up for one of their editions-Professional, Practice, Clinic, or Acute Care-expecting a straightforward service, only to discover that the billing structure and auto-renewal terms create confusion and unexpected charges on your card.
The service launches with attractive reference pricing displayed monthly (from RM118 to RM826), but Icare bills annually by default. This gap between what the pricing page shows and how your card actually gets charged is where most Malaysian users first realise they need help. At Stopee, we've seen countless cancellation requests from Icare subscribers who thought they were on a monthly plan only to face a full annual renewal charge.
Icare's pricing structure and billing cycle
Icare publishes four main subscription tiers with monthly reference prices. The Professional Edition costs around RM118 monthly (reference only), granting you basic patient management, scheduling, electronic health records (EHR), clinical notes, assessments, and a patient portal. The Practice Edition sits at approximately RM354 monthly, adding e-Prescribe functionality, lab integration, document management, revenue cycle tracking, and EDI claims processing.
The Clinic Edition, priced near RM590 monthly, includes flowsheets, imaging, clinical reminders, template editors, multi-location support, and an integration engine. At the top, the Acute Care Edition reaches RM826 monthly, introducing inpatient EHR, ADT systems, task management, emergency department tools, pharmacy modules, surgery tracking, and coding features. Most importantly, all these plans renew automatically on an annual basis unless you actively cancel, meaning a single forgotten cancellation can lock you into a full year of charges you no longer need.
Auto-renewal and the malaysia support channels
Icare's terms clearly state that your subscription renews automatically at the end of each billing cycle. You can cancel through your online account dashboard or by contacting their support team directly. In Malaysia, Icare operates support channels Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, reachable by phone at +(60)10-2323818 or email at [email protected]. There is no live chat option, which can delay responses during busy periods.
The company also offers a 3-day trial for courses with a USD 1 (approximately RM4.72) authentication fee. This fee is non-refundable after the trial closes, so read any trial terms carefully before committing. Icare does not clearly disclose a statutory cooling-off period, commitment duration, or data retention policy post-cancellation in its published terms, making it critical that you take cancellation into your own hands rather than assuming the company will handle it automatically.
Your consumer rights when cancelling Icare in malaysia
Malaysia's Consumer Protection Act 1999 provides you with foundational rights even though Icare operates as a digital service provider.
Key protections under malaysia's consumer protection act 1999
Under the Consumer Protection Act 1999, you have the right to receive goods and services of merchantable quality and fit for purpose. If Icare's service fails to deliver the features promised-such as interrupted access, missing functionality, or data loss-you may have grounds to request a refund or cancellation without penalty. The Act also protects you against unfair contract terms, including hidden auto-renewal clauses buried in fine print.
If Icare refuses to cancel your subscription or continues charging after you've requested cancellation, you can escalate your complaint to the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs (MDTCA). Stopee recommends documenting every cancellation attempt, including screenshots of your account, email confirmations from Icare, and bank statements showing unauthorised charges. This evidence strengthens your position should you need to file a formal complaint.
When to escalate your complaint to authorities
If Icare does not honour your cancellation request within 7 working days, or if you spot a charge after confirming cancellation, you can file a complaint with the MDTCA's Consumer Affairs Department. You'll need proof that you attempted to cancel through the official channel and documentation of any repeat charges. The MDTCA investigates unfair trading practices and can compel companies to refund consumers.
How to cancel Icare step by step
The most direct and verifiable route to cancel Icare is through your online account management dashboard, backed by an email confirmation from their support team.
Cancel via your Icare web account
This method leaves a clear audit trail and is your safest option. Follow these steps exactly:
- Open your web browser and visit icare.com.my or your Icare login page.
- Enter your email address and password to log in to your account dashboard.
- Navigate to the subscription or billing section (usually labelled "Subscription Management," "Billing," or "Plans").
- Locate your active subscription and select the option to review or manage it.
- Look for a button labelled "Cancel Subscription," "Downgrade," or "Manage Plan."
- Read any exit survey or retention offer that appears; this is common but not mandatory to complete.
- If offered a discount to stay, you can decline and proceed to cancel.
- Confirm your cancellation by clicking the final "Confirm Cancellation" or "Yes, Cancel My Plan" button.
- The system should display a cancellation confirmation number.
- Screenshot or download the confirmation page immediately as proof.
- Check your email inbox (and spam folder) for a cancellation confirmation email from Icare within 24 hours.
Warning: If the cancellation button does not appear or the system returns an error, do not assume you are cancelled. Proceed to the email method below instead.
Cancel by emailing Icare support directly
If the web dashboard does not process your cancellation or you want a second confirmation channel, email support directly. This creates a timestamped record that protects you legally if Icare continues billing.
- Compose a new email in your default email client.
- Address it to [email protected] with the subject line: "Cancellation Request for [Your Name] - Account Email: [your email]."
- In the email body, include:
- Your full name and the email address registered to your Icare account.
- Your subscription plan name (e.g., "Professional Edition") and billing date (e.g., "Renews 15 March 2024").
- A clear statement: "I request immediate cancellation of my Icare subscription effective immediately. Please confirm cancellation in writing within 48 hours."
- Your preferred contact phone number for confirmation.
- Send the email and save a copy in a dedicated folder for your records.
- Allow 48 to 72 hours for a response; if you do not hear back, send a follow-up email with "URGENT: Cancellation Confirmation Required" in the subject line.
- Once you receive a cancellation confirmation email from Icare, save it permanently and take a screenshot.
Pro tip: Send your cancellation email on a Monday or Tuesday morning (Malaysia time) to ensure it reaches the support queue during their peak monitoring hours (9:00 AM to 6:00 PM Monday to Friday).
Cancel by phone (Malaysia support line)
For urgent cancellations or if you prefer voice confirmation, calling Icare's Malaysia support team is valid, though you should always follow up with an email to create a written record.
- Dial +(60)10-2323818 during business hours (Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM Malaysia time).
- When a support agent answers, state your request clearly: "I would like to cancel my Icare subscription immediately."
- Provide your full name, registered email address, and subscription plan name when asked.
- Ask the agent for their name, employee ID, and a reference number for the cancellation call.
- Request that they send a cancellation confirmation email to your registered email address within 1 hour.
- After the call ends, send a follow-up email to [email protected] referencing the call (date, time, agent name) and requesting written confirmation.
Warning: Do not rely on a phone call alone. Verbal promises are difficult to enforce if Icare charges you again. Always insist on written email confirmation.
What happens after you cancel Icare
Cancellation can feel anticlimactic, but the weeks following your request are critical-this is when billing mistakes surface most often.
Confirm access termination and data protection
Within 24 to 48 hours of your cancellation confirmation, your Icare account should lose active access. Try logging in: if the system denies access or displays a "Subscription Inactive" message, cancellation has taken effect. If you can still log in and access features, email support again immediately and reference your original cancellation request.
Icare does not publish a clear data retention timeline in its public terms, so you have the right to request what happens to your records. Send an email asking whether your patient data, course records, or documents remain stored, for how long, and how you can retrieve them if needed. Stopee recommends exporting all data before cancellation-if Icare allows direct export, do it. If not, request an export or data dump from support in writing.
Monitor your bank and card statements for 90 days
Even after cancellation, some subscription services attempt to charge accounts again, either through system errors or retention tactics. For 90 days after cancellation, review your bank or credit card statement weekly:
- Look for any charges from Icare, icare.com, or similar merchant names.
- If you spot an unexpected charge, note the transaction ID, date, and amount.
- Contact your bank or card issuer immediately and request a dispute or chargeback while providing your cancellation confirmation as evidence.
- Simultaneously, email Icare at [email protected] with the transaction details and a formal request for refund.
In Malaysia, your bank typically has 120 days (4 months) to investigate and resolve billing disputes under Bank Negara Malaysia guidelines, so act quickly.
Refunds, chargebacks, and getting your money back
Icare's refund policy is not transparently stated on its cancellation page, so you may need to negotiate or leverage your legal rights under the Consumer Protection Act 1999.
When you qualify for a refund
You have the strongest refund case if:
- You cancel within the service's trial period (Icare offers 3 days for courses) and the USD 1 fee should be refunded-though Icare states this fee is non-refundable, you can challenge this if the trial was not fit for purpose.
- You cancel before your renewal date and no services have been used in the current billing cycle; you may request a pro-rata refund for unused time.
- You discover that Icare's service is not fit for purpose or fails to deliver promised features; the Consumer Protection Act 1999 gives you grounds to claim a full or partial refund.
- Icare continues billing after you've cancelled; all repeat charges must be refunded immediately.
Pro tip: In your refund request email, cite the relevant clause of the Consumer Protection Act 1999 and state: "This service is not fit for purpose / contains undisclosed auto-renewal terms / continued charging after cancellation. I am entitled to a refund under Section [X] of the Consumer Protection Act 1999." This language often prompts faster resolutions.
Dispute charges through your bank (chargeback)
If Icare refuses your refund request within 14 days, you can initiate a chargeback through your bank. Contact your card issuer or bank and explain that you cancelled a subscription but Icare charged you anyway. Provide:
- Your cancellation confirmation email from Icare or timestamp from your account dashboard.
- Screenshots of the cancellation page or confirmation number.
- All correspondence with Icare support.
- Bank statements showing the disputed charge(s).
Your bank will investigate and, if they determine the charge was unauthorised after cancellation, reverse the transaction and credit your account. This process typically takes 30 to 90 days.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling Icare
We understand the frustration of navigating cancellation processes that seem deliberately opaque-here are the pitfalls that catch most users off guard.
Mistake 1: cancelling only through one channel
Many Icare subscribers cancel via the web dashboard but never follow up with email confirmation. If the dashboard cancellation fails silently (a known bug with subscription platforms), you remain active and get charged again. Always use at least two methods: web dashboard plus email to support. This dual-confirmation approach is your safety net.
Mistake 2: not taking screenshots or saving confirmations
Digital confirmations disappear if you delete emails or clear browser history. The moment you receive any cancellation confirmation, take a screenshot, save the email to a dedicated folder, and print a hard copy if needed. Stopee has helped thousands of consumers resolve disputes faster because they kept timestamped proof of their cancellation requests.
Mistake 3: assuming "downgrade" is the same as "cancel"
If Icare offers a downgrade option (moving to a lower-tier plan), this is not cancellation. Your subscription remains active and you may still be charged. If you want to end the service entirely, select "Cancel Subscription" explicitly, not "Downgrade Plan."
Mistake 4: ignoring the renewal date on your account
Before you hit cancel, log in and check your exact renewal date (e.g., "Renews 15 March 2024"). If you cancel on 14 March and a charge hits on 15 March, this is a system processing delay, not a failed cancellation. Allow 2 to 3 business days after cancellation for the system to update and stop the renewal.
Mistake 4: not monitoring for repeat charges
Subscription cancellation fraud-where companies attempt to re-bill cancelled accounts-is increasing. You must monitor your statements for 90 days. If you spot a charge, dispute it immediately rather than waiting and hoping it resolves on its own.

Malaysian consumer authorities for escalation
If Icare refuses to cancel or continues charging you after cancellation, file a complaint with:
Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs (MDTCA)
Consumer Affairs Department, Level 1, 62 Jalan Raja Laut, 50350 Kuala Lumpur
Phone: 1-800-88-5398 (toll-free) or +603-4101 8888
Email: [email protected]
Website: www.kpdnkk.gov.my
Attach your cancellation confirmation, all email correspondence with Icare, bank statements showing disputed charges, and a written summary of your complaint. The MDTCA investigates unfair trading practices and can compel Icare to refund you.
Bank Negara Malaysia also handles consumer complaints about billing disputes on financial services and can escalate if your bank does not resolve a chargeback fairly.
Summary and your path forward
Icare's auto-renewal structure and lack of transparent cancellation instructions leave many Malaysian subscribers vulnerable to unexpected annual charges. You now have the knowledge to cancel confidently, protect your data, and recover any funds if Icare charges you illegally.
Your three steps are clear: cancel through your web dashboard and email backup, monitor your bank statements for 90 days, and know exactly where to escalate if the company continues billing. Stopee has helped thousands of consumers cancel subscriptions just like this one, and we empower you to do the same. Arm yourself with screenshots, confirmation numbers, and timestamped emails-these are your legal shields.
If you face resistance from Icare or spot unauthorised charges, do not hesitate to contact the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs or dispute the charge through your bank. Malaysia's Consumer Protection Act 1999 is on your side. Stopee exists to ensure you keep control of your spending and your data, and you've now got every tool you need to cancel Icare without getting trapped again.
