Tips & Things to Know

  • Set a reminder 7 days before renewal to avoid the automatic price jump from £2 to £26 per month.
  • Use 'Holiday Pause' instead of cancelling if you want a temporary break - you can pause for up to 4 weeks.
  • If you have a print subscription, call subscriber services to stop print delivery, as online cancellation may not stop print immediately.

Your Consumer Rights

  • You have a 14-day cooling-off period from purchase for a refund unless you have accessed substantial content.
  • Telegraph must disclose auto-renewal terms, dates, and cancellation methods clearly; non-compliance may allow you to dispute charges with your payment provider.
