How to cancel Playa subscription ⁉️

User reviews

Scam

I cancelled the subscription. They suddenly recharged me for no reason and I can’t get contact on the app or website working. Give me my money back.

Response from developer

Hi there, we’re very sorry to hear how upsetting this experience has felt. We understand how frustrating this kind of situation can be, and while every purchase on Playa requires explicit user consent, we always strive to keep our subscription terms clear and transparent and regret that it did not feel that way here. Please email support@playa.live with your account details and a short summary of what happened so our team can review the case carefully and assist you directly. If you would like to request a refund, we’ll be happy to help guide you through that process by email.

Très déçue

Arnaque depuis Insta, tout est en français jusqu’au paiement. A partir du paiement tout est en anglais.

Response from developer

Hello, we are sorry for this experience and understand your disappointment regarding the language change after payment. Please contact support@playa.live with your account details so our team can investigate the situation and assist you.

Unnecessary and Very Poor Customer Service

I bought the $7.00 one week trial and was automatically charged over $40 when it ended because I had trouble logging into the app in order to cancel my subscription in time. My trial ended with no notice, email, text, or notification indicating so. I have emailed customer support three times about this issue and still received no response. On top of this, I find the graphics aesthetically unappealing and the over reliance on AI to be a turnoff from using the app. It is a much too high price point for the basic service and daily quotes it provides, that you can find anywhere else on the internet for free. The quiz did not feel accurate and doesn’t have enough information about you to make accurate judgement on what you struggle with. AI is used for the majority of the lesson plans and to calculate your individual needs. I do not recommend. Still having a horrible experience trying to reach out and communicate with customer service.

Response from developer

Hi there, we’re sorry to hear about this experience, especially with the unexpected charge after your trial and the trouble accessing the app to manage your subscription. We also see that you reached out multiple times without getting a reply, which is not the experience we want anyone to have. Please email support@playa.live with your account details so our team can review both the billing and access issues directly, as that is the fastest path to resolution. We’re also continuing to make behind the scenes improvements to keep Playa more reliable and running smoothly.

Won’t cancel

I’ve been emailing and no one will help me cancel. It’s ridiculous. Mental health is hard enough without adding in fees and no communication.

Response from developer

Hi there, we’re sorry to hear this has felt so upsetting, especially when you were already dealing with something difficult and could not get clear help. We understand how frustrating it is when cancellation does not feel straightforward and communication seems missing. We always strive to keep our subscription terms clear and transparent, and we’re sorry if your experience with Playa did not feel that way. Please contact us at support@playa.live with your account details and a short note about what happened, and our team will review your case carefully and assist you.
