How to cancel by letter
Many contracts require written notice, and some require it by certified mail. A cancellation letter should name the service, your account number, the effective date and ask for written confirmation.
- Send it to the address in your agreement.
- Use certified mail, return receipt requested, and keep the receipt.
- Ask for a zero-balance confirmation.
- Watch your next statement for extra charges.
What to check for each service
| Service | Check before canceling |
|---|---|
| Gym | Contract term, cancellation method, fee, move or medical clause |
| Subscription | Automatic renewal date and refund policy |
| Cell phone | Device payment balance, early termination fee, transfer PIN |
| Internet or cable | Equipment return and final bill |
| Insurance | New coverage active first, refund of unearned premium |
Several states have automatic renewal laws that require clear disclosure and an easy cancellation method. Rules vary by state, so check yours.
If they keep billing you
- Send a second letter and cite your first one.
- Dispute the charge with your credit card issuer or bank.
- File a complaint with your state attorney general or the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
