Cancel T-Mobile step by step

  1. Switching? Get your Number Transfer PIN in the T-Mobile app and give it to your new carrier: the line closes on port-out.
  2. Otherwise contact T-Mobile to cancel.
  3. Device financing balances stay due.

Good to know before you cancel

  • Switching carriers? Porting your number to the new carrier closes your old line automatically — you usually don't need to call to cancel.
  • Device financing balances stay due after you leave.

Re: Cancellation of subscription — account [your account number]

To whom it may concern,

I am writing to cancel my T-Mobile subscription (account / member number [your account number]), effective immediately, or at the end of the current billing period if that is required.

Please stop all recurring charges to my payment method as of the effective date, and send me written confirmation of the cancellation, including the date it takes effect.

I am exercising my right to cancel under the Restore Online Shoppers' Confidence Act (15 U.S.C. § 8403), which requires sellers to provide a simple way to stop recurring charges. Please do not condition this cancellation on a phone call, a retention offer or any other step.

If any equipment must be returned, please send me the return instructions; I will return it promptly.

If I am charged after the effective date, I will dispute the charge with my bank or card issuer.

Thank you for processing this request.

Sincerely, Jane Doe
