How to cancel Chess.com by mail

  1. Collect the details you need

    You will need the name and email on the account and, if you have one, an account or customer number. Use exactly the details Chess.com holds, so the request can be matched to your account.

  2. Prepare the letter

    State plainly that you want the Chess.com account cancelled, further charges stopped and a written confirmation sent to you. Postbye sets this out in a ready English template (“Subject: Subscription termination – Chess.com”).

  3. Post it with proof of delivery

    Use certified mail for the 94306 Palo Alto address in the next section, so the post office records the delivery. Write down the tracking number.

  4. Save the tracking record

    Once the letter is delivered, the date on the receipt is the date Chess.com was told. Compare it with your statements over the next billing cycle.

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

“PO Box 60400” is a post-office box or mail-sorting line, so it takes post and not couriers: certified mail is the right way to reach it.

Before you cancel Chess.com, check these

  • Check your next statement: no charge should appear after the cancellation date.
  • Look for annual or multi-month plans. A plan paid in advance usually runs to the end of the period you paid for.
  • Write well before the next billing date. A request that arrives after it can leave one more charge on your statement.

Several states set rules for subscriptions that renew on their own. See what yours requires in automatic renewal laws by state.

How cancelling by mail works

Most subscriptions keep billing until someone tells the company to stop, and a dated letter is proof that somebody did.

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.
