What we checked
Three things to check before porting your WhatsApp.
The sources below include complaints, the company's response and official documentation. We do not calculate failure rates or treat selected reviews as representative of the entire customer base.
-
WhatsApp number
confirm in writing what happens to the number if you cancel or change plans.
-
Cancellation
official documentation states that the process is not completed at the moment of the request.
-
Billing
validate the open billing cycle and the credit allowance before any termination.
-
Context
the company's public reputation was good as of the check date; the reviews below are specific cases, not the average across the customer base.
Complaints and documentation checked on September 26, 2026: reclameaqui.com.br/empresa/zenvia
01
The number does not leave with you when the contract ends
"nosso número oficial permanece vinculado à plataforma da empresa, impossibilitando sua utilização em outro canal de atendimento"
Reclame Aqui, September 18, 2026. Original Portuguese excerpt, read from the complete page through a web reader on September 26, 2026. Read review
On September 22, the company confirmed it disabled the number's two-step verification and granted a discount on the final invoice. The resolution only came after, according to the review, "several requests" went unanswered. Confirm the unlinking timeline in writing before switching channels.
02
Fast to sell, slow to cancel
"é muito difícil entender como uma empresa consegue responder em poucos minutos quando precisa concluir um novo cadastro, mas demora dias para atender uma solicitação de cancelamento"
Reclame Aqui, September 16, 2026. Original Portuguese excerpt, the same customer's third complaint about the same issue. Complete page checked on September 26, 2026. Read review
The September 17 reply clarifies that the number ban was Meta's decision alone, with no Zenvia involvement, and waived the notice period as a commercial courtesy. Even so, it kept the full charge for the cycle already used. Confirm what counts as a "used cycle" before requesting cancellation.
03
Billed after the notice period was already served
"houve a cobrança de uma parcela posterior a notificação enviada de término da relação contratual"
Reclame Aqui, September 24, 2026. Original Portuguese excerpt. Complaint with no company response as of the read date, September 26, 2026. Read review
Termination was notified in writing with the 30-day notice period set out in the contract, and a later installment was still charged. With no published response so far, there is no way to know how this case ended. Keep the protocol number for any termination notice.
Side by side
What to confirm before signing up.
Right column: only public information and official documentation, checked on September 26, 2026. If anything has changed, email contato@socialfy.me and we will correct this page.
Where they are stronger
When Zenvia is the right choice.
If your operation depends on high-volume sending (SMS, RCS, bulk email) beyond WhatsApp, or on an enterprise setup with multiple channels and credits configurable by plan, Zenvia delivers that with years of track record in the Brazilian market. The company's public reputation on Reclame Aqui is good, and that carries weight in a vendor decision.
Socialfy solves a different problem: customer service and sales follow-up on WhatsApp for the local business, without a per-interaction credit layer or a structure built for bulk sending. Bring your real message volume and your support operation to a demo and check which product fits your case.

Does the WhatsApp number stay with me if I cancel Zenvia?
It depends on who provided the number. If your company did, porting it back is possible, but official documentation says the process can take a few weeks and requires notifying Zenvia to disable two-step verification. If Zenvia provided the number, it cannot be reused after cancellation, according to the company's own terms.
Does Zenvia have a good reputation on Reclame Aqui?
According to the company's public profile, yes, as of the September 26, 2026 check. The score changes over time, so we do not repeat it here. That does not cancel out the specific reviews about cancellation, billing and number retention cited on this page. The full links are above, with dates and the company's response where there was one.
How does cancellation work in practice?
Official documentation describes a process that starts with an AI assistant inside the platform and opens a ticket for the responsible team. The text itself states that cancellation is not completed at the time of the request and may depend on contractual timelines and conditions. Ask for confirmation in writing.
Does Socialfy cost less than Zenvia?
This page does not assume prices or savings. Compare proposals with the same users, channels, message volume and support terms.
