Subscription GetContact Premium provides advanced functions for identification calls, but not all users need them all the time. Many people are faced with the problem: how to properly disable autopayment to avoid debiting funds? In this article, we will look at all the current methods for deleting a subscription via a Androiddevice, including nuances for different versions of the application and stores (Google Play, AppGallery, direct payments).

Feature GetContact Premium is that a subscription can be issued not only through Google Play, but also through alternative payment systems (for example, UnitPay or bank cards directly). This complicates the cancellation process - standard instructions from the Internet often do not work. We have collected all working methods, including hidden settings and contacting support.

Why it is important to cancel your subscription in advance

Most users forget that auto-renewal triggers automatically 24โ€“48 hours before the end of the current period. If you delete the application or simply stop using it, the money will still be debited. This is stated in user agreement service.

Key points:

  • ๐Ÿ”„ Google Play: auto-renewal occurs in the background, even if the application is deleted.
  • ๐Ÿ’ณ Direct payments (via website): debiting occurs on a schedule that is not synchronized with Google.
  • โณ Cancellation period: you have up to 48 hours after the charge to request a refund through support.
โš ๏ธ Attention: If the subscription was issued via AppGallery (on devices Huawei), it cannot be canceled via Google Play. Use separate instructions for Huawei ID (section 4).

Before you proceed to cancel, check:

  1. Which application store was the subscription purchased through (see Settings โ†’ Account โ†’ Subscriptions on Google Play).
  2. Date of next debit (displayed in your personal account GetContact or in a receipt in the mail).
  3. Linked payment card (if you paid directly through the site).

Method 2: Cancellation through your GetContact personal account

If the subscription was made directly through the website GetContact (for example, using a promotional code or through a bank card), it can only be canceled in your personal account. This method is also suitable for users iOS, but we are interested in Android-version.

  1. Open the browser on your phone and go to getcontact.com.

  3. Go to section Profile โ†’ My subscriptions.
  4. Find an active subscription Premium and click Manage.

If the section My subscriptions is missing, it means:

  • ๐Ÿ“ฑ You are logged in under another number (check the linked account).
  • ๐Ÿ’ฐ The subscription was issued through a third-party service (for example, UnitPay or Robokassa).
  • ๐Ÿ”„ Servers GetContact temporarily unavailable (try again later).
What to do if you donโ€™t have access to your phone number?

If you have lost access to the number associated with your subscription, recovery is only possible through support. Write to support@getcontact.com with the subject "Restoring access to your account" and attach:

- Payment receipt (if yes)

- Last 4 digits of the linked card

- Approximate date of subscription

Processing the request takes up to 3 business days.

After cancellation, you will receive a letter to the email specified during registration. If there is no letter, check the folder. Spam or repeat the procedure.

Method 3: Cancellation via AppGallery (for Huawei owners)

On smartphones Huawei (and some models Honor) applications are installed through the company store AppGallery. Subscriptions issued here are not displayed in Google Play, so separate instructions are required.

How to cancel:

  1. Open AppGallery on your phone.
  2. Tap on the profile icon in the lower right corner โ†’ My account.
  3. Select Subscriptions โ†’ find GetContact Premium.
  4. Click Manage subscription โ†’ Cancel auto-renewal.
  5. Confirm the action via SMS or fingerprint (if required).
โš ๏ธ Attention: On some firmware EMUI the "Subscriptions" section may be called "Payments" or "My Orders". If you donโ€™t find it, use the search inside AppGallery.

Features AppGallery:

  • ๐Ÿ”’ To cancel, you may need a password from Huawei ID.
  • โฑ Request processing time - up to 24 hours (as opposed to instant cancellation in Google Play).
  • ๐Ÿ“ง Notification of successful cancellation will be sent to the email associated with Huawei ID.
๐Ÿ’ก

If you have a smartphone Huawei without Google services, but you installed GetContact via APK, the subscription could be issued through a third-party payment aggregator. In this case, check the SMS from the bank with. confirmation of payment - the service will be indicated there (for example, UnitPay or PayPal).

Method 4: Cancellation through a bank or payment system

If the subscription is linked to a bank card directly (without Google Play or AppGallery), cancel it can be done through:

  • ๐Ÿฆ Personal account of the bank (section "Regular payments").
  • ๐Ÿ’ณ Mobile application of the bank (tab "Automatic payments").
  • ๐Ÿ“ž Bank support service (report blocking write-offs from GetContact).

Example for Sberbank Online:

  1. Open the application โ†’ go to Payments โ†’ My auto payments.
  2. Find GetContact or GETCONTACT LTD in the list.
  3. Tap on payment โ†’ Cancel.

For other banks (Tinkoff, VTB, Alfa-Bank) the algorithm is similar. The main thing is to find the section with regular write-offs.

โš ๏ธ Attention: Cancellation through the bank only blocks future payments, but does not cancel the current subscription. To completely deactivate Premium, additionally cancel it in your personal account GetContact (method 2).
Bank Path to auto payments Processing time
Sberbank Payments โ†’ My auto payments Instantly
Tinkoff Payments โ†’ Regular payments Up to 1 hour
VTB Payments โ†’ Templates Up to 24 hours
Alfa-Bank Payments โ†’ My payments โ†’ Automatic payments Instantly

Method 5: Contact GetContact support

If none of the methods worked, all that remains is to write to the service support. This is relevant in the following cases:

  • ๐Ÿ” The subscription was issued through a promotion or affiliate app.
  • ๐Ÿ“ต There is no access to the account Google or Huawei ID.
  • ๐Ÿ’ธ A double debit of funds has occurred.

How to contact support:

  1. Send an email to support@getcontact.com with the subject Cancel Premium subscription.
  2. Indicate in the body of the email:
    
    

    - Phone number linked to the account

    - Date of subscription (approximately)

    - Last 4 digits of a bank card (if you paid with it)

    - Reason for cancellation (for example, โ€œI donโ€™t use the serviceโ€)

  3. Attach a screenshot of the payment receipt (if available).

Response period is from 1 to 3 business days. In most cases, the subscription is canceled retroactively (with a refund for the unused period), but this depends on the policy of the service.

๐Ÿ’ก

If the subscription was issued using a promotional code from a partner (for example, through MTS or Beeline), it can only be canceled at the source. For example, for a promo from MTS write to the support of the operator, and not to GetContact.

What to do if money continues to be written off

If, after canceling the subscription, funds are still debited, follow the algorithm:

  1. Check the source of the debit:
    • ๐Ÿ”Ž In the SMS from the bank or statement, find the name of the recipient (for example, GOOGLE *GetContact or GETCONTACT LTD).
    • ๐Ÿ“ฑ If the debit goes through Google Play, but the subscription is cancelled, request a refund in Google support.
  2. Dispute the payment:
    • ๐Ÿฆ In your personal bank account, find the transaction and select Dispute payment.
    • ๐Ÿ“ Specify the reason: "Unauthorized debit after cancellation of subscription."
  3. Blocking the card (extreme case):
    • ๐Ÿšซ If charges are repeated, temporarily block the card or release it a new one.

The period for refunding a disputed transaction is up to 30 days. The bank may request evidence (screenshots of subscription cancellation, correspondence with support).

โš ๏ธ Attention: If the subscription was made through UnitPay, PayPal or other aggregators, contact their support. GetContact does not manage payments processed by third-party services.

FAQ: Answers to frequently asked questions

Can I get a refund for the unused subscription period?

Yes, but only during 48 hours after write-off. To do this:

  1. Cancel your subscription (by any of the methods above).
  2. Write to support GetContact with a request for a refund, attaching a receipt.

If you paid via Google Play, a refund can be requested in Help Center (section "Return and Cancellation").

The subscription has been cancelled, but Premium is still displayed in the application. Why?

This is normal - access to premium features remains until the end of the paid period. For example, if you canceled your subscription on May 15, and the next payment was scheduled for June 1, Premium will be active until June 1.

To speed up the cancellation of the status, clear the application cache:

  1. Go to Settings โ†’ Applications โ†’ GetContact โ†’ Memory.
  2. Click Clear cache and Clear data.
  3. Restart the application.

How to check if the subscription is really cancelled?

Verification methods:

  • ๐Ÿ“ง Check your mail (you should receive a letter confirming the cancellation).
  • ๐Ÿ›’ In Google Play or AppGallery the subscription should disappear from the list of active ones.
  • ๐Ÿ’ณ The card statement should not contain new charges from GetContact.

If in doubt, take a screenshot of the screen with the canceled subscription and save it - this will be proof in case of disputes.

Is it possible cancel a subscription through a telecom operator (MTS, Beeline, Tele2)?

No, if the subscription was not made through an operator. GetContact Premium is not a service of a mobile operator, therefore:

  • ๐Ÿ“ฑ If you paid via Google Play or a card, use methods 1โ€“4.
  • ๐ŸŽ If the subscription was gifted by the operator (for example, as a bonus for topping up your account), it can only be canceled through the operatorโ€™s personal account or a call to support.
What happens if you delete the GetContact application without canceling the subscription?

Deleting the application does not cancel autopayment. Money will continue to be debited, since the subscription is linked to your account Google, Huawei ID or bank card. To completely stop charging, be sure to cancel your subscription using one of the methods above.

If you deleted the application but did not cancel the subscription:

  1. Restore GetContact from the store.
  2. Cancel your subscription (method 1 or 2).
  3. Delete the application again (optional).
