Cancel Hidive: Step-by-Step Guide
How to cancel your hidive subscription in singapore: a step-by-step guide
What is hidive and why you might want to cancel
Hidive is a subscription streaming service specialising in anime content, offering simulcasts, exclusive releases, and a library of classic titles across multiple devices. You can watch via web browsers, mobile apps, smart TVs, and streaming platforms. However, if you no longer watch anime, find the catalogue limited, or want to reduce your streaming expenses, cancelling makes sense. The good news: cancelling is straightforward once you know where to look. At Stopee, we help you navigate cancellation quickly so you can stop paying for services you no longer use.
When cancellation might be right for you
You may want to cancel if you have finished your favourite series, prefer other streaming platforms, or simply need to cut your subscription costs. Many Singapore subscribers pause or cancel seasonal subscriptions when their backlog clears. Whatever your reason, Stopee recommends cancelling before your next renewal date to avoid unexpected charges.
Hidive pricing in singapore
Understanding what you are currently paying helps you decide whether to cancel or pause your subscription. Hidive lists prices in USD on its official site, but your actual charge in SGD depends on your payment method and bank conversion rates.
| Plan type | Billing cycle | Approximate SGD cost | Auto-renewal |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard (monthly) | 1 month | SGD 10-13 | Yes (unless cancelled) |
| Standard (annual) | 12 months | SGD 80-100 | Yes (unless cancelled) |
| Free tier (ad-supported) | N/A | Free | No charges |
Pro tip: Check your last receipt or bank statement to see your exact plan and billing currency. Stopee recommends verifying this before you log in to cancel, so you know exactly what subscription to remove.
How currency conversion affects your bill
Hidive charges in USD, but Singapore banks and payment processors apply their own exchange rates and fees. Your SGD amount may be slightly higher or lower depending on the rate applied on the transaction date. If you spot unexpected charges after cancellation, keep your receipt and contact your bank for a dispute.
How to cancel hidive via direct account cancellation
If you subscribed directly through Hidive's website or via PayPal, you cancel via your Hidive account. This is the fastest route and puts you in full control.
- Open your web browser and go to hidive.com or the Hidive app on your device.
- Make sure you are logged in to the account linked to your subscription.
- Tap or click your profile icon (usually top right) and select Account, Settings, or My Account.
- Layout varies slightly depending on your device, but look for "Manage Account" or "Billing".
- Navigate to Billing, Subscription, or Manage subscription.
- This section shows your active plan and renewal date.
- Select the option to Cancel subscription or Cancel membership.
- Hidive will ask why you are cancelling; this is optional feedback.
- Confirm cancellation when prompted.
- You should see a confirmation message on screen and receive a confirmation email within minutes.
- Save the confirmation email for your records.
- This proves cancellation if you dispute a later charge.
Warning: Deleting the Hidive app does not cancel your subscription. You must cancel through the account settings or contact support. Many subscribers accidentally keep paying because they assume deleting the app stops the charge.
What to do if the cancel button is missing
If you cannot find the cancel option in your account settings, your subscription may be managed by a third party (see the next section) or your account may have a technical issue. Contact Hidive support at support.hidive.com with your account email and subscription details. Stopee advises keeping a record of this communication in case you need to escalate to your bank or a consumer authority.
How to cancel hidive through app store subscriptions
If you subscribed through Apple App Store, Google Play, Amazon Prime Video Channels, Roku, or another third-party platform, you must cancel through that platform, not through Hidive. Hidive cannot cancel app store charges on your behalf.
Cancel via apple app store (iPhone or iPad)
- Open the Settings app on your iOS device.
- Do not open Hidive; Settings is the key here.
- Tap your Apple ID name at the top of the screen.
- You may need to enter your Face ID, Touch ID, or Apple ID password.
- Select Subscriptions.
- This shows all active subscriptions linked to your Apple ID.
- Find and tap Hidive.
- If Hidive does not appear, your subscription may have expired or you may not have a current plan.
- Tap Cancel subscription.
- Apple will confirm cancellation immediately.
- Take a screenshot of the cancellation confirmation for your records.
- This acts as proof if a charge appears later.
Pro tip: Apple processes cancellations instantly, but you retain access until the end of your current billing period. You will not lose access mid-cycle.
Cancel via google play store (Android)
- Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device.
- Tap the Menu icon (three horizontal lines) in the top left.
- Select Manage my subscriptions or Subscriptions.
- This lists all active subscriptions on your Google Play account.
- Tap Hidive.
- If Hidive does not appear, check that you are logged into the correct Google account.
- Tap Cancel subscription.
- Google Play will display a confirmation message.
- Confirm the cancellation when prompted.
- You will receive a cancellation email from Google Play shortly.
- Keep the email confirmation.
- Stopee recommends saving it to a folder labelled "Cancelled Subscriptions" for easy reference.
Warning: If you subscribed via Google Play and later try to cancel via the Hidive website, your payment will continue because Google Play, not Hidive, holds the subscription. Always cancel through the platform you used to subscribe.
Cancel via amazon prime video channels
- Go to amazon.com.sg or open the Amazon Prime Video app.
- Log into your Amazon account.
- Navigate to Account and then Prime Video Channels or Subscriptions.
- This section shows all add-on channels you subscribe to.
- Find Hidive in the list and click Manage or Edit.
- Amazon will display your renewal date and plan details.
- Select Cancel Channel or Unsubscribe.
- Confirm the cancellation.
- Save your confirmation from Amazon.
- Amazon sends a cancellation confirmation email that serves as your receipt.
Cancel via roku channel
- Go to roku.com and log into your Roku account.
- Alternatively, open the Roku app on your device and access account settings.
- Navigate to Subscriptions or Manage subscriptions.
- This section lists all active channel subscriptions.
- Find Hidive and click Cancel or Unsubscribe.
- Roku will ask you to confirm the cancellation.
- Confirm and wait for the confirmation message.
- Roku sends a confirmation email; keep it for your records.
Pro tip: If you subscribe to Hidive through multiple platforms (e.g. both Apple App Store and directly via Hidive), you must cancel each subscription separately. Stopee recommends checking all payment methods before cancelling to avoid surprise charges.
What happens to your account after cancellation
Cancelling is not the same as deletion. Understanding what changes after you cancel helps you avoid confusion and recover your account if you change your mind.
Your access timeline after cancellation
Once you cancel, you retain full access to Hidive until the end of your current billing cycle. If you paid for a monthly plan and cancel on the 15th of the month, you keep watching until the 1st of the next month. If you paid for an annual plan, you keep access until exactly one year from your original purchase date. After that date passes, the app logs you out and you cannot stream new content.
Account data and viewing history
Cancellation does not automatically delete your account, viewing history, or watchlist. Your profile remains intact for 12 months or longer, depending on Hidive's retention policy. If you resubscribe within this window, your history and settings are usually restored. If you want your account data deleted immediately, contact Hidive support and request full account deletion separately from cancellation.
Renewal and future charges
Cancelling stops all future renewals and charges. Once cancelled, Hidive will not bill you again unless you manually resubscribe. If a charge appears after your confirmed cancellation date, contact your bank or payment provider immediately and provide your cancellation confirmation email.
Will you get a refund after cancellation
Hidive's standard refund policy does not cover unused portions of your subscription or accidental charges. However, consumer law in Singapore provides protections in specific situations.
Hidive's refund policy
Hidive generally does not issue refunds for cancellations or forgotten renewals. Your access is retained until the end of your billing period, so you are not technically losing money. However, if Hidive discontinues service in Singapore or removes content that was the primary reason for your subscription, you may have grounds for a refund.
| Situation | Refund eligibility | Your next step |
|---|---|---|
| Forgot to cancel before renewal | Case-by-case (unlikely) | Contact Hidive support with proof |
| Service discontinued in Singapore | Yes (for annual plans) | Hidive contacts you; follow their process |
| Charged after confirmed cancellation | Yes (dispute with bank) | Contact your bank with cancellation email |
| Billing error or duplicate charge | Yes | Contact Hidive and your bank |
| Accidental subscription (wrong account) | Case-by-case | Contact Hidive immediately with receipt |
| Used service fully; want refund | No | Plan cancellation before next cycle |
How to request a refund from hidive
If you believe you qualify for a refund, contact Hidive support at support.hidive.com with your account email, order number (from your receipt), and a clear explanation of why you deserve a refund. Keep all evidence: receipts, cancellation confirmations, screenshots of charges, and correspondence. Hidive may take 5-10 business days to respond. If they refuse, escalate via your bank's dispute process or contact the Consumers Association of Singapore.
Your consumer rights and protections in singapore
Digital subscriptions in Singapore are protected under the Consumer Protection (Fair Trading) Act and the Personal Data Protection Act. These laws give you specific rights and remedies if Hidive engages in unfair practices.
Consumer protection (Fair trading) act
This Act protects you from false advertising, unfair contract terms, and misleading conduct. For Hidive subscriptions, you have the right to:
- Cancel within a reasonable period if the service is not as described or quality is poor.
- Reject automatic renewal if the terms were not clearly disclosed before purchase.
- Request a refund if Hidive uses aggressive or hidden charges.
- Hold Hidive liable if they continue billing after you cancelled.
If Hidive violates these rights, you can lodge a complaint with the Consumer Association of Singapore or the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Enterprise (MTIE). Stopee recommends documenting everything: cancellation dates, confirmation emails, and any disputed charges.
When to escalate to a regulatory authority
If Hidive refuses your refund request or continues charging after cancellation, escalate to:
- Consumers Association of Singapore: cassingapore.org.sg or call 1800-6100-6 for free advice.
- Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS): If Hidive uses a Singapore-licensed payment processor that breaches regulations.
- Your bank or card issuer: File a chargeback or dispute claim within 90 days of the unauthorized charge.
Stopee has helped thousands of consumers navigate these escalations successfully by keeping clear records and following the right process.
Common mistakes when cancelling hidive
Cancelling should be simple, but small mistakes can leave you paying for months longer than intended. Here are the traps to avoid.
Mistake 1: deleting the app instead of cancelling the subscription
The single most common error is removing the Hidive app from your device and assuming the subscription stops. It does not. Deleting the app is a local action on your phone; it does not communicate with Hidive's billing system. Your subscription continues to renew every month or year, and charges keep hitting your bank account. Always cancel through your account settings or the platform where you subscribed before deleting the app.
Mistake 2: cancelling in the wrong place
If you subscribed via Google Play, cancelling through the Hidive website does nothing. Your subscription is managed by Google, not Hidive. The two systems are separate. Check where you originally bought Hidive, then cancel in that exact location: Apple App Store, Google Play, Amazon, or Hidive directly.
Mistake 3: not saving your cancellation confirmation
Many subscribers cancel successfully but do not keep proof. Weeks later, a charge appears and they have no documentation to support a dispute. Always screenshot or save the confirmation message and email from your cancellation. This is your receipt and protects you if a billing error occurs.
Mistake 4: cancelling too late in the cycle
If you cancel on the last day of your billing period, your subscription may still renew because Hidive processes renewals 24-48 hours before the cycle ends. Cancel at least 3-5 days before your renewal date to be safe. Check your billing date on your receipt or account page.
Mistake 5: using a shared account without coordinating cancellation
If you share a Hidive account with family or a partner, cancelling affects everyone. Coordinate with them first. Alternatively, remove your payment method and ask them to add theirs if they want to continue. Stopee recommends clear communication to avoid unexpected service loss.
