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.
