To exercise the right to cancel, the individual must give notice in a record to the provider. Notice by mail is given when mailed.

3. If a personal financial emergency necessitates the disbursement of an individual’s money to one or more of the individual’s creditors before the expiration of 3 days after an agreement is signed, an individual may waive the right to cancel. To waive the right, the individual must send or deliver a signed, dated statement in the individual’s own words describing the circumstances that necessitate a waiver. The waiver must explicitly waive the right to cancel. A waiver by means of a standard form record is void.
