How to Cancel Constant Contact Subscription on Desktop

Alright, you have to do this on a computer. Trying to find the cancel option on your phone is a complete waste of time. It feels like they make it intentionally difficult, but if you follow these steps exactly, you'll get it done.

1 Log Into Your Account

First, head over to the Constant Contact website and sign in. This part is straightforward, just make sure you have your login details ready.

2 Find Your Account Settings

Once you're logged in, look for your profile name or icon, which is usually in the top-right corner of the screen. Click on it to open the dropdown menu and then select 'My Account'.

3 Navigate to the Billing Tab

In the 'My Account' area, you'll see several tabs. You need to click on the 'Billing' tab. This is where they keep the important account management options.

4 Locate the Cancellation Link

Here's the tricky part. You have to look for a link that says 'Cancel My Account'. It's often a small text link near the bottom of the page, not a big, obvious button. Honestly, I had to scan the page a couple of times before I spotted it.

5 Follow the Cancellation Prompts

Constant Contact will not let you go without a bit of a fight. You'll likely be asked to complete a survey about why you're leaving and they might even offer you a discount to stay. Just keep clicking 'Continue to Cancel' to proceed.

6 Get Your Confirmation

After you've navigated through all their questions and offers, you should land on a final confirmation screen. Crucially, make sure you receive a confirmation email. If that email doesn't arrive, assume the cancellation didn't work and try again or contact support.

Cancel Constant Contact Subscription with phone

If the website is giving you trouble, just call them. Phone Number: 1-866-876-8464 (US). Hours: Monday to Friday, 8 AM to 8 PM ET. Be prepared for a wait and to explain why you want to cancel. They will likely try to convince you to stay.

Cancel Constant Contact Subscription with live chat

You can also try their live chat. Go to their 'Contact Us' page and look for the chat bubble. It's usually faster than calling, but you'll still have to deal with the retention offers. Sometimes the chat agent takes forever to respond, so have some patience.

Before you pull the plug, know this: Constant Contact will not give you a refund for any prepaid time. So if your renewal was yesterday, that money is gone. Super frustrating. They also don't delete your data right away; they hold onto your lists and campaigns for about 120 days in case you change your mind. If you're just tight on cash, you can pause your account for a small monthly fee instead of fully canceling. It's a decent option if you think you'll be back.
