How to cancel The Atlantic by mail

  1. Note your account details

    Check the email on the account, the delivery address for print copies and the subscription or reference number from your latest invoice before anything else. A request that does not match the account on file at The Atlantic is the easiest one to set aside.

  2. Write your request

    State plainly that you want the The Atlantic 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 support.theatlantic.com for the current postal address, then mail the letter there by certified mail and keep the tracking number.

  4. File the delivery record

    Delivery confirmation is your evidence that The Atlantic was asked. Watch the next statement or two for any further The Atlantic charge.

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

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 phone call leaves nothing behind; a letter leaves a copy, a date and a delivery receipt.

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

The Atlantic cancellation questions

Where do I send my The Atlantic cancellation letter?

We do not hold a mailing address for The Atlantic. Check the contact or terms pages on support.theatlantic.com, or the address on your latest invoice, then mail the letter there.

Does The Atlantic require notice before I cancel?

The rule we recorded for The Atlantic: Cancel before the current term ends; the subscription continues through the term without renewal. Mail the letter early enough that its delivery receipt falls inside that window.

What do I need to cancel The Atlantic?

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 Atlantic has on file.

Will The Atlantic confirm my cancellation?

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

Does The Atlantic give refunds?

Cancelled subscriptions are not refunded; access continues until the term ends.
