How to cancel Google Play by mail

  1. Collect the details you need

    Have the account email, the plan or product name and the invoice or order number from your latest receipt to hand. The details in the letter need to match what Google Play has on file.

  2. Write your request

    Postbye turns the request into a finished English letter headed “Subject: Cancellation Request – [your name]”: close the Google Play account, stop every charge and reply in writing.

  3. Send it by certified mail

    Use certified mail for the D02 R296 Dublin 2 address in the next section, so the post office records the delivery. Write down the tracking number.

  4. Keep proof the letter arrived

    File the receipt with the letter. A Google Play 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 Google Play

Cancelling a software or app subscription

Software plans are billed per plan or per seat, often yearly, and the app store version is billed by the store rather than the developer, so the request has to name the plan and who bills it.

Putting the request in writing means there is a date on file for when you asked, which matters if a charge appears afterwards.

Google Play lets you cancel directly (online: subscriptions in Google Play (play.google.com or the Play Store app) > choose subscription > Manage > Cancel subscription > reason > Continue (signed in to the Google Account that holds it)). A letter is the fallback that leaves a dated record when the direct route fails.

Google Play cancellation questions

Where do I send my Google Play cancellation letter?

Address the letter to Google Play, 70 Sir John Rogerson's Quay, D02 R296 Dublin 2, Ireland. The database also lists a second address, in Mountain View, United States; the letter goes to the one above.

Does Google Play require notice before I cancel?

The rule we recorded for Google Play: Access continues for the period already paid, then no renewal charge. Mail the letter early enough that its delivery receipt falls inside that window.

What do I need to cancel Google Play?

Have the account email, the plan or product name and the invoice or order number from your latest receipt to hand. The details in the letter need to match what Google Play has on file.

Will Google Play confirm my cancellation?

The letter asks Google Play 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 Google Play received the request. If a charge posts after that date, quote the receipt with your copy of the letter.

Can I pause my Google Play membership instead?

Some apps allow a pause of one week to three months, starting at the end of the current billing period.
