        Hi Fred, to cancel your registration with aYo, simply dial *296# on your phone, select option 1 (Recharge with Care), then select option 1 again (Continue with Recharge with Care). After that, choose option 1 (MyProfile) and finally select option 2 (Cancel Policy).

        This will stop your subscription. Let us know if you need any more help. 🙂
