Dear Adobe Customer Support,

I hope this message finds you well.

I am writing to request the cancellation of my current subscription plan. I recently realized that I no longer need the service and, unfortunately, was not aware of the 50% early termination fee until now.

I kindly ask for your understanding and support in canceling my subscription without applying the 50% early termination fee, as I was unaware of this condition when I signed up. I believe this cancellation aligns with Adobe’s commitment to customer satisfaction and fairness.

Please confirm the cancellation and ensure that no further charges will be applied to my payment method.

Thank you very much for your assistance and understanding.

Best regards,

I started to sign up under a new email to experience the process anew. The 7-day trail at no fee and a 30-day trial with a full refund were pretty clear. The cancelation and termination fee was available with a link right before one accepted the trial. While I felt it could have been more pronounced, I generally don't agree to things without reading at least _some_ of the terms. Here does the responsibility untimately lie to make sure the terms are understood?

For anyone else reading this
.
Please read everything so you know what you are doing BEFORE you buy a subscription or start a trial... the link below has the information you need
.
If you buy a HIGHER COST Monthly subscription you may cancel at any time without a fee... when you buy an Annual subscription with Monthly payments, and you do not cancel in NO MORE than 14 days from the start of your subscription, you pay 1/2 of the remaining time if you cancel early... you also need to keep track of your annual renewal date, so you may cancel after your 12th payment, before your subscription renews and you start a new one year subscription... RENEWAL IS AUTOMATIC UNTIL YOU CANCEL

you must canacel yourself:  make sure you're aware of the cancellation terms by selecting your plan type (at the top of the page here), https://helpx.adobe.com/manage-account/using/creative-cloud-subscription-terms.html



and for info on how to cancel your subscription, this page describes the few steps involved, https://helpx.adobe.com/manage-account/using/cancel-subscription.html

p.s. if you're contacted by anyone (via email or private message), it's much more likely to be a scammer than an adobe representative.



if you're unable to follow the steps described, you'll need to await help from an adobe employee for the next step.  (if you don't get a reply here from a badged employee within 24 hours, repost.)

You should contact Adobe directly for help with this issue, using one of these channels:

Chat support: https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?rghtup=autoOpen
(make sure pop-ups are not blocked; type "Agent" to chat with a real person, during working hours)

Twitter: https://twitter.com/AdobeCare

There's no email support.

Beware of people contacting you via the forums' messaging system pretending to work for Adobe! Only those with an "Adobe Employee" tag under their name are legit. Also, Adobe will never offer to contact you via Skype, or use an email account that's not under the adobe.com domain...
