Do it yourself
Cancel Carbonite yourself
TLDR: Cancel the subscription, or turn off auto-renewal, before the term ends. The terms do not print the clicks, you keep it until the term ends, the fee is not refunded, and files are deleted when it does not renew.
Cancel or turn off auto-renewal
Carbonite is set to renew.
- 01Cancel the subscription, or change the auto-renewal setting.
The terms do not print the clicks. The plan lasts for the period you bought, then renews for the same length. If it auto-renews, they charge the card on file around the end of the term unless you cancel or change that setting. You keep access through the end of the current term. The fee already due or paid is not refunded or credited. Quantities cannot be cut during the term. They can raise the fee before a renewal, as the law allows, and they can raise it on 30 days’ notice. Using it after that notice is agreeing to the new fee. A late payment can add 1.5% a month, or less if the law caps it. Files are deleted when the account or subscription is cancelled and does not renew.
Mail a legal notice
You want it on paper.
- 01Write that you are cancelling, and include the email on the account.
- 02Mail it by certified mail to 385 Interlocken Crescent, Suite 800, Broomfield, CO 80021, Attn: Legal Department.
The terms say a legal notice is effective 5 days after that mailing. Also email a copy to smbclegal@opentext.com. Cancel in the account as well.
