How hard is it to cancel M1?
M1 scores 41/100 (grade D) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the SG — a poorly documented cancellation policy. Cancellation is available via phone, postal mail.
M1 consumers can terminate their postpaid mobile service by calling the customer service hotline (1627) or by writing/faxing to M1, with just one day's prior notice required if outside the minimum commitment period (Clause 6.7). Device plans carry a 24-month commitment and SIM-only plans a minimum 1-month term; early termination triggers a charge equivalent to the remaining subscription at non-promotional rates (or 1 month's charge for shorter plans). No self-service online or in-app line termination is documented for standard postpaid accounts, though add-on services such as FoneCare+ and NumberShare can be cancelled via the My M1+ app. Refunds are not explicitly guaranteed and prepaid/Maxx payments are stated as non-refundable.

Scope & fairness
This is the Documented-Policy tier: it measures how clearly the cancellation policy is published (cited, dated facts), not the behavioural experience of cancelling (Verified-Flow audit pending). Every company is scored on the same five dimensions with the same published weights — scores cannot be bought or removed. It is opinion grounded in disclosed facts, and not legal advice.
