How to Cancel Your America's Test Kitchen Subscription (2025)

If the online button is missing (common with older "legacy" accounts), you have to call them. It is annoying, but sometimes the only way.

• Phone Number: 1-800-611-0759
• Hours: Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM CST

Prepare for a wait time. Tell the representative clearly that you want to cancel immediately and do not want to pause.

You can try emailing their support team, though responses can be slow (2-3 business days).

• Email: [email protected]

Include your full name, the email address associated with the account, and your account number if you have it.

America's Test Kitchen operates on a strict auto-renewal basis. If you cancel, your access continues until the end of your current billing cycle, but they generally do not offer refunds for partial months or if you forget to cancel before the renewal date.

According to recent complaints on the BBB, users have struggled with "surprise" renewals where notification emails went to spam. You must cancel at least 24 hours before your renewal date to avoid being charged for the next period. If you bought a print subscription, cancellation stops the auto-renewal, but you will likely still receive the remaining issues you already paid for.

• Recipe Access: Once your billing cycle ends, you lose access to the vast archive of recipes and equipment reviews. Print or save any favorites as PDFs before your access cuts off.
• Data Deletion: Cancelling the sub does not delete your account. Your data remains on their servers unless you specifically request a data deletion via their privacy contact.
• Best Time to Cancel: Do it immediately. Since you keep access until the end of the term, there is no benefit to waiting until the last minute.

Stuck in a loop? You are not alone. Here are common fixes:

• The "Call Us" Trap: If your account page says "Please call customer service to manage your subscription," you have a legacy account. You cannot cancel online. You must call 1-800-611-0759.
• Third-Party Billing: If you don't see billing info on their site, you likely paid via Amazon, Roku, or Apple. Check those specific accounts.
• Browser Issues: Try using Incognito mode or a different browser. Sometimes their pop-up retention offers break the page on mobile Safari.

With grocery inflation hitting hard in 2025, paying for premium recipes you rarely cook is an easy cut to make. Pine AI makes the breakup instant.
