Microsoft 365 features that help users manage their subscriptions, account settings, and billing information.
Cancel the subscription from your Microsoft account’s Services & subscriptions page using the same personal account that purchased Microsoft 365.
Cancel the subscription
- Open Services & subscriptions and sign in with the Microsoft account used for the purchase.
- Find Microsoft 365 and select Cancel subscription. Depending on the plan, this may appear as Upgrade or Cancel.
- Review the cancellation details.
- Select I don’t want my subscription to confirm. ^1^
If the page shows Turn on recurring billing, cancellation is already scheduled. The subscription will expire on the displayed date, and you will not be charged again.
Important exceptions
- Purchased through Apple, Google Play, Amazon, or another retailer: Cancel through that seller rather than Microsoft. ^1^
- Cancel option is missing: Check that you used the purchasing Microsoft account. An overdue balance may also prevent cancellation until it is paid.

- Refund: Not every cancellation receives one. Microsoft determines eligibility during cancellation; if no refund is issued, access typically continues until the current billing period ends.

Before cancelling, download or move files if your storage exceeds the free allowance. After cancellation, storage reverts to 5 GB of cloud storage and 15 GB of Outlook.com storage; exceeding those limits can stop OneDrive synchronization and Outlook.com email service. ^1^
