I canceled my account but they still charge me monthly and I can’t stop the payment option until next year. I was never told this that I will be charged monthly for 25;00 even after closing the accoun

AI Highlights
  • - Cannot cancel until May 2027 after contacting support.
  • - There is a $25.00 monthly charge.
  • - Support is not helpful; the program is unclear.

I can't cancel my subscription with them until May 2027. I decided that I didn't want the service, so I called, and they told me I can't cancel until next year.

I think they should tell you that once you subscribe, there will be a 25.00 dollar charge each month.

I am disappointed about the service I receive; I can't even get help on how the program works. I hate this service.

Loss:
$50
Pros:
  • Price
Cons:
  • Put you in a plan for a whole year

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: Make sure you get all the information. Very disappointed customer

While we do not have enough information to locate this particular membership, It does sound like this member is in a multi-month commitment plan. There are several subscription durations available, with longer plans offering the best value.

Before activating a membership, a short summary outlining the payment plan and cancellation policy is displayed (multi-month plans may only be canceled for the end of the plan). Below this summary, there is a mandatory checkbox confirming agreement with these terms.

The membership activation is contingent upon this box being checked. Sincerely, Weight Watchers

I cancelled weight watchers a long time ago and have been charged 47 a month since then! I need compensation for that time and stop charging me.

I believe I still have a snap shot picture of when I stopped services.

Im flabbergasted and was wondering why my bill was not right. Yes, it took me time to recognize.

  • - Signed up for a 30-day free trial, paid $11, canceled, but WW still bills; no active subscription shows on iPhone; another charge is planned.
Weight Watchers App is a LIE !
Updated by user Dec 14, 2025

Update: Friday, 12/12/2025I called WW Customer Service by phone. They told me that I signed a 12-month commitment and instructed me to go back and read the WW receipt in my email.I reviewed it and explained to Customer Service that the terms are very vague and misleading.

The promotion states:“Weight Watchers — just $11/month + first month free! While you can cancel your membership at any time, cancellation takes effect at the end of the 12-month commitment period, meaning you will continue to be billed until the full term is paid.”The wording is confusing and twisted. Readers would reasonably believe it means $11 per month and you can cancel at any time.

However, in reality, even if you cancel, you are still locked into monthly payments for 12 months.I never knowingly agreed to a 12-month commitment. The language used was misleading and lured customers into signing up without clearly stating the obligation.

Original review Dec 08, 2025
Weight Watchers app membership is a lie. There are no active subscriptions showing on my iPhone.

I used the WW app and signed up for a one-month free trial. I paid $11 one time in July 2025. I cancelled before the end of the 30-day trial. I attempted several times to cancel my membership, but WW continues to charge me $11 for August, September, October, and November.

They are scheduled to charge me again on December 30, 2025. It was supposed to be a 30-day free trial with only one payment. Instead, they locked me into a contract until July 2026. This is not right!

I joined Weight Watchers years ago from 2007 to 2010 and never had any issues.

But the WW app is an online rip-off. We never agreed to a one-year contract.
Loss:
$44
Pros:
  • I used to be in ww 2007-2010

Preferred solution: Refund and WW needs to be honest and transparent to cancel anytime ! not to LIE to people !

With the information provided, we were not able to locate the membership. However, the pricing of $11.00 indicates it was a 12-month commitment plan, not a trial.

Standard pricing for this membership is $23.00. WeightWatchers offers a discounted rate in exchange for the commitment. The $11.00 pricing also indicates this signup was done on our website, not through iTunes, so her phone would not show an active subscription. On our website, one must specifically select the plan one wants.

The longer the duration selected, the lower the price is. Our cancellation Terms are very clearly stated on the website. In fact, during the sign-up process, there is a box that must be checked before submitting that has two short paragraphs, and in bold it states, “While you may cancel your subscription at any time, cancellation will not go into effect until the end of your Commitment Plan.“ After submitting, the next screen says “Welcome to the Community,” and under “Order Confirmation”, it shows again that same paragraph with the cancellation message in bold.

And yet again, it is in the sign-up receipt email. Sincerely, WeightWatchers

WW changed the app I pay for making it unusable, but I have to keep paying

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Committed to a year, but app changes are less convenient and upsell-focused.
  • - Cannot cancel and will pay for 7 months for a product I can no longer use.
Original review updated Apr 02, 2026

I committed to a year paying to use their app but it has changed recently. The service degradation is significant.

The current app experience no longer provides the same core functionality and ease of use that I relied on when I agreed to this plan. Specifically, features important to me have been made harder to access, and prioritization is given to upsells over core function. As a result, it is no longer a practical or effective tool for me, and it does not reflect the service I originally signed up for. Despite changing the plan I signed up for, I'm not allowed to cancel it.

For the next 7 months, I'm paying a monthly fee for a product that I relied on but can no longer use (not because of a lack of technical skills but because it's so many steps now for what used to be simple that I no longer have time to use it). What used to be a one-click action, now now requires wading through commercials for their services and menus and other junk to enter my foods.

Saved and pre-calculated items have been moved to a new hidden menu. I would have never committed to paying for this, and I shouldn't be held to a contract when the service changed this significantly.

Loss:
$70
Pros:
  • Good program that works
Cons:
  • Calculator comes with ads upsells and is unusable
  • You can only use it with their calculator

Preferred solution: Allow me to cancel the service because I committed to a year but the service has significantly changed.

User's recommendation: know that they can change what you get for your money but you still have to continue to pay

We are sorry to hear about the difficulties the member has experienced with our new app. While the app has been updated with new functionality, please note that the Weight Watchers program itself remains unchanged.

The issues mentioned in the review, specifically regarding "wading through commercials for their services and menus and other junk to enter my foods," should not be occurring. We would like to encourage this member to contact our Customer Service team for guidance.

This will help us determine if there is a technical issue with her app that needs to be addressed by our tech team. Sincerely, Weight Watchers

I called to extend our program for another year!! We have been using this app for over a year and it helps us tremendously. We are more aware of which foods to avoid.

User's recommendation: Use the app, it helps you chose the best foods.

While we understand the member’s frustration, the terms were agreed to and have been shared with the member in their WW Med+ chat. The member has been able to schedule and complete a consultation visit.

Prior to activating a membership, a short summary outlining the payment plan and cancellation policy is displayed, with key details emphasized in bold. Below this summary, there is a mandatory checkbox confirming agreement with these terms. The membership activation is contingent upon this box being checked, and at this time, the member is not eligible for early membership termination.

For any technical issues with the app, please call our Customer Service team for assistance. Sincerely, Weight Watchers

Weight Watchers - I got scammed - Image 2

Like many others, I was under the impression I had 7 days to trial an app. I canceled it the very next day and they confirmed my cancellation.

But they continue to charge me. I have filed multiple complaints and their argument is they have a very strict cancellation policy which is never explained. Even in their offer to allow you to continue to use the app they do not say you will continue to be charged. Once they get a hold of your financial information, they will abuse it in any way they feel comfortable.

Even their admission that you misunderstood the terms should be a valid reason to terminate a contract not to refuse to terminate it. Material mistake of fact is a valid formation issue.

I've even seen reviews where they've taken advantage of people 70 plus years old living on social security. This is a heartless company taking advantage of the public the doj needs to get involved

User's recommendation: Do not give them your financial information you will never be able to stop it

They Steal Your Money

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Cancelled two years ago, but charges continued monthly.
  • - One-click cancellation seemed effective, yet billing persisted and disputes required old proof.

I cancelled my Weight Watchers membership over two years ago, yet they have continued charging me every month since. The cancellation process is misleading; they make it seem like you can cancel with just one click, but even after confirming cancellation, they keep billing you.

When I finally called to dispute the charges, they asked if I had the original cancellation email or proof from two years ago. Of course, I don’t still have that, and their response was basically: 'It's your responsibility to keep track.' That's completely unfair. To make it worse, I never received a single email or notification from them during this time—no check-ins, no 'how are we doing,' nothing. It feels intentional, like they want you to forget you’re still being charged.

This is a terrible company with terrible business practices. Don’t sign up, and if you do, watch your bank account very closely, because cancelling doesn’t mean they’ll stop charging you.

Loss:
$552
Cons:
  • Expensive

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: Don't use them - this company counts on you using the online cancellation policy and keeps charging you
