Thinking about canceling your Bloomberg Businessweek subscription? You're not alone. Founded way back in 1929, Bloomberg Businessweek is a major source for business news, but maybe the constant market updates are just too much noise. With all the recent chatter about the AI bubble and market volatility, you might be looking to cut back on non-essential expenses. This guide covers canceling on your desktop. With plans ranging from about $75 to $120, you could save up to $120 a year. Let's get it done.
How to Cancel Bloomberg Business Week Subscription on Desktop
Canceling online should be straightforward, but sometimes it feels like they hide the button on purpose. I had to click around for a bit to find the right page. This method works best on a desktop computer, as the mobile site can be a little weird for account stuff.
1 Log In to Your Account
First, head over to the Bloomberg Businessweek website and get signed in. If you can't remember your password, you'll have to go through that whole reset process. It's a pain, but it has to be done.
2 Find Your Account Settings
Once you're logged in, look for your name or an account icon, which is usually hiding in the top-right corner of the page. Click on it and find a link that says something like 'My Account' or 'Manage Subscription'.
3 Navigate to Subscription Management
This is where they can make it confusing. You're looking for the section that shows your active subscription details and billing info. A user on a forum said they had to click through three different menus just to find it. Stay patient.
4 Select the Cancel Option
Keep an eye out for a link that says 'Cancel Subscription' or 'Turn Off Auto-Renew'. They will almost certainly try to keep you by offering a special discount. If you're determined to cancel, just click past it.
5 Confirm Your Cancellation
Follow the last few prompts to lock in the cancellation. You must get to a final screen that says 'Your subscription has been canceled.' Don't just close the browser. Make sure you get that confirmation email as proof.
Cancel Bloomberg Business Week Subscription with phone
You can call customer service at 1-800-635-1200. Their hours are typically Monday to Friday, from 8 AM to 8 PM ET. Make sure you have your account number or the email address you signed up with. Be prepared for some hold music and a sales pitch to try and keep you.
Cancel Bloomberg Business Week Subscription with email
Send an email to busweek@buysub.com. In your message, be sure to include your full name and account number to speed things up. Don't expect an immediate reply, it could take a couple of business days to get a response and confirmation.
Before you cancel, you should know that Bloomberg generally does not offer prorated refunds. If you were just charged yesterday, you are likely stuck with access until your subscription period ends. Super annoying, I know. They also don't really have a 'pause' option, so it's an all-or-nothing decision.
