How hard is it to cancel StarHub?
StarHub scores 64/100 (grade C) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the SG — a partially documented cancellation policy with notable gaps. Cancellation is available via in-app, phone, online (self-serve), in person.
Mobile contract-free plans (5G Unlimited+, Star Plan, etc.) can be cancelled self-serve in the StarHub app under More > Cancel line; contracted mobile or Digital Voice plans require contacting StarHub via Facebook Messenger or WhatsApp. Broadband and TV terminations must be initiated via the HubCare hotline (1633) or in-person at a StarHub shop, and router/set-top equipment must be returned. Terminations take effect same-day (mobile) or immediately upon completion (broadband/TV); early termination charges apply for cancellations within a contract term, calculated as net monthly fee × remaining months. Final billing with pro-rata adjustments is issued within 2 billing cycles, and any credit balance is refunded via PayNow after 2 months of account inactivity.

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.
