I didn’t even set up a subscription with this company and have only discovered they have subscribed me and taken a sizeable amount of money from my account. This is a scam operation!!!! Beware!!!

Buyer Beware.
Buyer Beware.
My experience with Effecto/Yoga Walking has been extremely disappointing.
The app is marketed as Effecto (Yoga Walking), but the recurring charges on my credit card appeared under Medical Score. Because the billing name was different from the app name, it was very difficult to identify where the charges were coming from.
Over time, I was charged hundreds of dollars in recurring subscription fees before I realized what was happening. When I contacted customer support, they canceled the subscription but refused to issue a refund unless I could provide proof that I had previously attempted to cancel.
In my opinion, the billing and cancellation process lacks transparency and makes it unnecessarily difficult for customers to identify and stop recurring charges. Consumers should not have to guess which company is billing them or navigate multiple company names to cancel a subscription.
Unfortunately, based on my experience, I cannot recommend this service.

Neurodivergent users beware — I consider this cancellation process predatory
I have tried for approximately a year to cancel and get a refund for an Effecto membership connected to an app I never used, and Effecto still repeatedly attempted to charge my debit card $99.99 again. My bank records show multiple $99.99 attempts in one day.
The app itself provides no obvious Subscription, Billing, Auto-Renewal, Manage Membership, or Cancel Subscription option in Settings. I originally downloaded the app through Apple, yet the attempted $99.99 charges were coming directly from Effecto rather than appearing as an Apple subscription. Consumers are left hunting around trying to figure out where the membership even exists and how to stop it.
I find this especially disgusting because Effecto markets itself to people dealing with symptoms, mood issues, ADHD-related struggles, forgetfulness, and executive dysfunction. In my opinion, creating a difficult-to-find cancellation process for a population that may specifically struggle with remembering and managing subscriptions is exploitative and predatory.
If you are trying to cancel, here is the direct cancellation page I finally found:
Cancel Effecto subscription directly
Screenshot everything. Keep your emails. Check your bank account. I would never trust this company with my payment information again.

Despite cancelling before the completion of the one month trial period they took money they weren't entitled to and refused to refund.

Ho autorizzato il pagamento dell'acquisto singolo ed hanno attivato abbonamento con pagamento preautorizzsto
Ho autorizzato il pagamento esclusivamente per la prima transazione (singolo acquisto). Non è mai stato fornito un consenso esplicito, separato e consapevole per l'attivazione di un abbonamento con rinnovo automatico.
Con clausola vessatoria hanno attivato abbonamento con autorizzazione automatica del pagamento.
Nonostante l'addebito costituisce una transazione non autorizzata non viene emesso il rimborso della transazione.
