Cancel Hoichoi: Step-by-Step Guide
How to cancel hoichoi in new zealand and understand your streaming rights
What hoichoi is and why new zealand subscribers use it
Hoichoi is a streaming platform dedicated to Bengali-language films, television series and original productions. If you are a New Zealand subscriber, you likely signed up through the Apple App Store, Google Play Store or the Hoichoi website directly to access its library of South Asian content.
The service offers flexible monthly and annual subscription plans, with pricing displayed in New Zealand dollars (NZD). However, like many streaming services, cancellation can feel confusing when you have multiple payment routes and platform-specific procedures to navigate.
At Stopee, we help consumers cut through subscription confusion and cancel with confidence. This guide walks you through every step of cancelling Hoichoi in New Zealand, what happens after you cancel and your legal rights as a consumer.
How hoichoi pricing works in new zealand
Hoichoi offers several subscription tiers on the App Store NZ, ranging from NZD $13.99 to NZD $129.99 depending on whether you choose monthly or annual billing. The table below shows the current pricing options available to New Zealand users.
| Plan type | Price (NZD) | Billing period | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly (entry-level) | $13.99 | Monthly | Short-term viewers |
| Monthly (mid-tier) | $14.49 | Monthly | Standard access |
| Monthly (premium) | $19.99 | Monthly | Multiple device streaming |
| Annual | $85.99 | 12 months | Committed viewers |
| Annual (premium) | $129.99 | 12 months | Full feature access |
Where to find exact current pricing
Hoichoi does not clearly label plan features on the App Store NZ listing, so you may need to check the service directly or within the apps themselves to match price to features. Always verify pricing before you commit to a plan, and remember that you can cancel anytime through Stopee's step-by-step guidance.
Should you cancel hoichoi right now
Reasons you might want to cancel
You may be considering cancellation if you have finished watching your favourite shows, if the monthly cost no longer fits your budget or if you are consolidating streaming subscriptions. Whatever your reason, cancelling Hoichoi is straightforward once you know which payment method you used.
If you signed up through the App Store, you cancel through Apple. If you used Google Play, you cancel through Google. If you paid Hoichoi directly (via credit card or other methods), you contact Hoichoi support by email.
Before you cancel: points to consider
Warning: Hoichoi subscriptions are non-refundable. Cancelling stops future charges but does not refund money you have already paid. This means you should cancel only after you have finished watching content you are actively enjoying in your current billing period.
Pro tip: If you subscribed via Apple or Google, you may have a 14-day refund window under their own refund policies. Check those platforms first if you cancel within that timeframe and believe you are entitled to a refund under New Zealand consumer law.
How to cancel hoichoi depending on how you paid
Cancel hoichoi via apple app store (iOS devices)
If you subscribed through your iPhone or iPad using your Apple ID, follow these steps to turn off auto-renewal and stop future charges.
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
- Tap your name at the top of the screen.
- Select Subscriptions.
- Find Hoichoi in your active subscriptions list and tap it.
- You will see your renewal date and price.
- Tap Cancel Subscription at the bottom of the screen.
- Apple will ask you to confirm or offer you a retention discount.
- Select Confirm Cancellation to finalize.
- Take a screenshot of the cancellation confirmation for your records.
What happens next: Your subscription remains active until the end of your current billing cycle. After that date, you lose access to premium content.
Cancel hoichoi via google play store (Android devices)
If you subscribed through the Google Play Store on your Android phone or tablet, use these steps to cancel.
- Open the Google Play Store app.
- Tap your profile icon in the top right corner.
- Select Payments and subscriptions.
- Choose Subscriptions from the menu.
- Find and tap Hoichoi in your active subscriptions.
- You will see renewal details and your current plan.
- Tap Cancel subscription and confirm your choice.
- Google may offer a retention discount before you finalize.
- Save a screenshot or email confirmation of the cancellation.
What happens next: Like Apple, Google allows you to keep your subscription through the end of the current billing period. Access stops after that renewal date passes.
Cancel hoichoi if you paid directly (web, credit card or other methods)
If you signed up directly on the Hoichoi website and paid with a credit card or other payment method, you must contact Hoichoi support to cancel. New Zealand does not have a postal address listed for Hoichoi, so email is your primary cancellation route.
- Send an email to support@hoichoi.tv with the subject line "Subscription Cancellation Request".
- Include your account email address.
- Include the name or email associated with your subscription.
- Provide your most recent transaction details or invoice reference number.
- State clearly that you wish to cancel your subscription effective immediately.
- Wait for a response from Hoichoi support (typically 2-5 business days).
- Hoichoi may ask for additional account verification before processing cancellation.
- Keep all email correspondence as proof of your cancellation request.
- Confirm that your subscription is marked as cancelled in their system once you hear back.
- Ask Hoichoi to provide a cancellation confirmation email or reference number.
- Check your bank or payment provider to ensure no further charges occur after cancellation takes effect.
Pro tip: If you also set up a standing instruction or auto-debit mandate with your bank, contact your bank separately to revoke it. This adds an extra layer of protection against accidental future charges.
What happens after you cancel hoichoi
Your subscription during the wind-down period
Cancelling does not mean you lose access immediately. Your Hoichoi account remains active and fully functional until the end of your current billing cycle, so you can continue watching content you have started.
No further charges will be applied after your cancellation takes effect at the end of that period. This gives you time to finish episodes or series you were in the middle of without interruption.
What happens to your account and viewing history
Your account data, including your watch history and saved preferences, typically remains stored by Hoichoi even after your subscription expires. If you decide to re-subscribe in the future, your account should be recoverable with the same login details.
However, you will not be able to access premium content once your paid subscription ends. You may see limited or ad-supported content instead, depending on whether Hoichoi offers a free tier in New Zealand.
Understanding refunds and your consumer rights
Hoichoi's official refund policy
According to Hoichoi's help centre, subscriptions are non-refundable. Cancelling your subscription only stops future recurring charges. It does not automatically return money you have already paid for previous billing periods.
This policy is common among streaming services, but it does not override your consumer rights under New Zealand law. Keep reading to understand when you may be entitled to a refund regardless.
When you might qualify for a refund
If you subscribed via Apple App Store: Apple offers a 14-day refund window for app purchases and subscriptions. If you cancel within 14 days of your subscription start date and can demonstrate that you have not consumed significant content, you may request a refund directly from Apple through your App Store account.
If you subscribed via Google Play Store: Google also offers a 14-day refund period for subscriptions. Contact Google Play support directly if you believe your cancellation qualifies for a refund under their terms.
If you paid Hoichoi directly: You may be able to raise a chargeback or payment dispute with your bank or credit card company if you believe Hoichoi has not provided the service you paid for, or if you cancelled but were charged again.
Your consumer rights under new zealand law
The Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (CGA) protects you when you buy goods or services in New Zealand. While Hoichoi is based in another country, if the service is sold to you in New Zealand and fails to meet the guarantees of quality, fitness for purpose or safety, you may have grounds to claim a refund or compensation.
If Hoichoi provides a service that is significantly different from what was advertised, or if the service is unavailable for an extended period, you may lodge a complaint with the Commerce Commission or seek advice from a consumer advocacy organisation. Stopee can help you understand whether your situation qualifies for escalation.
Common mistakes to avoid when cancelling hoichoi
Cancellation mistakes can cost you money or leave you without proof that you actually requested cancellation. We understand the frustration, and these traps are easy to fall into if you are not careful.
Mistake 1: cancelling through the wrong platform
The most common error is trying to cancel through a platform you did not use to subscribe. If you signed up via Google Play, you must cancel via Google Play. If you subscribed on the Hoichoi website, you cannot cancel through Apple or Google.
Always check your original email confirmation or bank statement to see which payment method Hoichoi used. Then use that exact platform to cancel. Stopee users often discover they were looking in the wrong place simply by reviewing their initial signup receipt.
Mistake 2: deleting the app instead of cancelling the subscription
Removing the Hoichoi app from your phone does nothing to stop recurring charges. Your subscription continues to renew automatically until you specifically turn off auto-renewal through the app store or contact Hoichoi support directly.
Mistake 3: forgetting to save your cancellation confirmation
Once you cancel, take a screenshot or save the confirmation email immediately. If a charge appears on your account after cancellation, you will have proof that you actually requested cancellation. This evidence protects you in disputes with your bank or payment provider.
Mistake 4: not following up with your bank if charges continue
If you cancelled Hoichoi but your bank statement still shows a charge after your cancellation should have taken effect, do not assume it is an error. Contact your bank or credit card company immediately and raise a chargeback dispute. Provide them with your cancellation confirmation.
