How to cancel Elsevier by mail
Collect the details you need
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 Elsevier has on file.
Put the request in writing
Because Elsevier is dealt with in Dutch, the letter is written in Dutch (template nl). Subject: “Onderwerp: annuleringsverzoek – [your name]”. It requests an end to the subscription and to every further charge, plus written confirmation.
Mail the letter with a receipt
Send it certified to Doetinchem, Netherlands, copying the address from the next section letter for letter, and keep the receipt slip.
Hold on to the receipt
The receipt dates your request. Look at your next statement for any Elsevier charge after that date.
With Postbye, steps 2 to 4 take about two minutes of your time.
Where your Elsevier cancellation letter goes
For a letter to Elsevier, use Postbus 606, 7000 AP Doetinchem, Netherlands.
“Postbus 606” 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.
The letter is addressed “Geachte heer/mevrouw,” and its details block uses the labels Accounthouder, Factuuradres in dossier and E-mailadres in dossier.

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.
If a charge shows up after you cancelled, the letter and its receipt are what you put in front of the company or your bank.
