Moving abroad or change of employer

If your employer no longer provides Thrive, you should request cancellation from your employer or from Thrive and provide proof such as a termination letter or new employer letter. The contractual right depends on your corporate agreement; provide the employer confirmation email as proof.

Price increase

If Thrive raises a price during a fixed initial term, you can refuse the change and treat it as a contract change. Provide the notice of price increase as proof. Consumer law protects against unfair contract terms under the Consumer Rights Act 2015; if the increase is disproportionate you can dispute it.

Death of subscriber

Where the subscriber dies, a next of kin or executor should notify Thrive and provide a death certificate. Research indicates Thrive Homes accepts death of tenant with death certificate for tenancy matters. Provide a copy of the death certificate as proof.

Legitimate ground - material breach

Thrive Mental Wellbeing allows termination for material or persistent breach with 14 days notice for correction. To rely on material breach provide documented examples of the breach such as communication records, missed services or demonstrable failure to meet service standards. Applicable law: Consumer Rights Act 2015 - services must be performed with reasonable care and skill.

End of commitment

Many Thrive products have an initial term of 12 months. For Business Coaching (except Momentum) a 2 month written notice is required after the initial 12 months. For Momentum the initial term is 3 months followed by 2 months written notice. Provide the original contract or subscription start date as proof.

Cooling-off period (14 day right)

When you buy Thrive online or off-premises you have a 14 day cooling-off right under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013. If you started digital content delivery and gave express consent and acknowledged loss of right, the right to refund may be limited. To cancel in the cooling-off period send a clear written statement. Applicable law: Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 and the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024 provisions on cancellation rights - see official legislation links.

Before you cancel - negotiate

Research does not show standard retention offers published by Thrive. If you want to keep the service at a reduced cost ask your employer wellbeing administrator or your Thrive account manager for alternatives: paused access, temporary suspension, reduced user tier, or a discounted annual rate. Send a written request that lists your reasons and a target price. If Thrive does not publish retention deals, request a written refusal to preserve your records.

What cancelling saves - arithmetic

Use the published per-user prices to compute annual cost.

Example - "Up to 200 Employees" plan: £3.00 per user per month x 12 = £36.00 per user per year. The equivalent annual prepay price is shown as £30.00 per user per year.

Example math shown:

• £3.00 x 12 = £36.00 per user per year (monthly billing)
• Annual equivalent: £30.00 per user per year (prepay)

Cheapest real alternative from competitors listed: Keepr - free core plan at £0 per month. Saving by switching one user from Thrive monthly plan: £3.00 x 12 = £36.00 saved per user per year. If you paid Thrive annual £30.00, switching saves £30.00 per user per year.

Other comparator examples:

• Practice Hub: £39 monthly = £468.00 per year
• Experi: £9 monthly x 12 = £108.00 per year or £79.00 if paid annually

Key UK laws

Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 give a 14 day cooling-off right for most distance and off-premises contracts. The Consumer Rights Act 2015 requires services to be provided with reasonable care and skill. The Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024 includes updated protections on cancellation and unfair renewal practices. See the official legislation for details: Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024 and Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 (summary).

Cooling-off and digital content

If you ordered digital content and gave express consent for immediate access, the right to a refund can be limited once delivery starts. If no consent was given, you have 14 days to cancel and seek repayment for unused services. For detailed terms for My Thrive Scan see Thrive privacy and subscription documents: My Thrive Scan privacy and Thrive subscription bundle agreement (PDF).

How to escalate

First, complain to Thrive in writing and keep records. If unresolved, contact Citizens Advice and escalate to the appropriate ombudsman for your sector. For card payments you can request a chargeback or Section 75 claim from your card issuer if criteria are met. If a contract term appears unfair or a cancellation penalty is disproportionate, the Consumer Rights Act 2015 provides grounds to challenge it.

Check access and billing

After cancellation, confirm the date your access ends and whether final charges apply. Some Thrive services continue until the end of the billing period. Keep the final invoice or account statement.

Data and reactivation

Request details on data retention and how to export your account data. If you want to return later, ask about reactivation rules and any waiting periods. If you cancelled during a cooling-off period, request a full refund if you are entitled to one under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013.

Proof and records

Keep the cancellation confirmation email, signed postal receipt, screenshots of account status and bank or card statements showing refunds or final charges. These documents are essential if you need to escalate the dispute.

Use this checklist to make your cancellation effective and documented.
