How to cancel The Boston Globe by mail

  1. Start with your account details

    The Boston Globe will look your account up from what the letter says, so check the email on the account, the delivery address for print copies and the subscription or reference number from your latest invoice first.

  2. Put the request in writing

    State plainly that you want the The Boston Globe account cancelled, further charges stopped and a written confirmation sent to you. Postbye sets this out in a ready English template.

  3. Find the postal address

    Check the contact or terms pages on customerservice.bostonglobe.com for the current postal address, then mail the letter there by certified mail and keep the tracking number.

  4. Keep the proof of delivery

    File the receipt with the letter. A The Boston Globe charge dated after delivery is the one to dispute, and these two documents are what you quote.

With Postbye, steps 2 to 4 take about two minutes of your time.

Cancel The Boston Globe

Cancelling a news or magazine subscription

Publishers often move you from an introductory price to the standard rate and can steer cancellations towards phone or chat, so a written request is the record that you asked.

A letter is the formal route: it states the request in writing, carries a date and, sent by certified mail, comes with proof of delivery.

The Boston Globe lets you cancel directly (phone). A letter is the fallback that leaves a dated record when the direct route fails.

The Boston Globe cancellation questions

Where do I send my The Boston Globe cancellation letter?

We do not hold a mailing address for The Boston Globe. Check the contact or terms pages on customerservice.bostonglobe.com, or the address on your latest invoice, then mail the letter there.

Does The Boston Globe require notice before I cancel?

The rule we recorded for The Boston Globe: Digital subscriptions can be cancelled at any time. Mail the letter early enough that its delivery receipt falls inside that window.

What do I need to cancel The Boston Globe?

Have the email on the account, the delivery address for print copies and the subscription or reference number from your latest invoice to hand. The details in the letter need to match what The Boston Globe has on file.

Will The Boston Globe confirm my cancellation?

The letter asks The Boston Globe to end the account, stop further charges and confirm in writing, but a reply is not guaranteed. What you can rely on is the delivery receipt: it shows the date The Boston Globe received the request. If a charge posts after that date, quote the receipt with your copy of the letter.
