Subject: Request for Refund and Cancellation of Unwanted Charges

Hello,

Microsoft365 F

I noticed that Microsoft has been charging me every month, even though I have not used any Microsoft services for a long time. I already unsubscribed earlier, but I still keep getting charged.

Please cancel this subscription immediately and refund the charges that were taken from my account without my authorization.

Thank you,

    To address your request for a refund and cancellation of unwanted charges for Microsoft 365, you will need to take the following steps:

    1. Determine Your Billing Account Type: First, check what type of billing account you have (MCA or MOSA) as this will affect your cancellation options. You can find this information in the Microsoft 365 admin center.
    2. Cancel Your Subscription: If you have not already done so, you can cancel your subscription through the Microsoft 365 admin center. Follow these steps:
      • Go to the subscription details page.
      • In the Subscription and payment settings section, select Cancel subscription.
      • Choose whether to cancel immediately or before the next renewal date.
      • Provide a reason for the cancellation and confirm.
    3. Request a Refund: If you are eligible for a refund, it will depend on when you canceled your subscription. For MCA accounts, you can receive a prorated credit or refund if you cancel within seven days of the start or renewal of your subscription. For MOSA accounts, you may also receive a prorated credit or refund after cancellation.
    4. Contact Support: If you continue to experience issues with unauthorized charges or if you need further assistance, it is advisable to contact Microsoft support directly for help with your account and to ensure the cancellation and refund process is completed.

    Make sure to keep records of your cancellation and any communication with Microsoft regarding your request for a refund.

    Hello

    Do you mean Microsoft 365 Family plan?

    How did you unsubscribe it? Did you cancel it via https://account.live.com > subscriptions, click on manage and cancel there?

    This is a public forum, so for your privacy and security, we can’t help with billing issues here. Also, no one in this forum has access to your account or payment information.

    To get help, open the "Get Help" app on your computer (just search for it in the Start menu). or go to https://support.microsoft.com/contactus, Type "Billing" and press Enter. On the next screen, click "Contact support" at the bottom of the page, then choose "Microsoft 365" > "Manage my subscription". You’ll then see the option to chat with a Microsoft support agent who has access to your account to help review the issue.
