Subscription Plan Cancellations.

If you see Turn on recurring billing instead of Manage, skip to the Troubleshooting section - otherwise proceed to step 3. On the next page, select Cancel or Upgrade or Cancel, depending on your subscription type. Follow the instructions on the page to proceed with cancellation. If you cancel a subscription before the end of your term, the subscription status moves directly into a disabled state.

Note that even if you cancel App Store subscriptions for apps, you might still have some time left to enjoy the benefits of those subscriptions.

Although not required, Microsoft recommends that you take the following actions before you cancel your subscription:

Back up your data. For example, if you're storing data in Azure storage or SQL, download a copy. If you have a virtual machine, save an image of it locally.
Shut down your services. Go to the resources page in the management portal, and Stop any running virtual machines, applications, or other services.
Consider migrating your data. See Move resources to new resource group or subscription.
Delete all resources and all resource groups.
If you have any custom roles that reference this subscription in AssignableScopes, you should update those custom roles to remove the subscription. If you try to update a custom role after you cancel a subscription, you might get an error. For more information, see Troubleshoot problems with custom roles and Azure custom roles.

If you cancel a paid Azure Support plan, you're billed for the rest of the subscription term. For more information, see Azure support plans.

Who can cancel a subscription?

The table below describes the permission required to cancel a subscription.

Subscription type	Who can cancel
Subscriptions created when you sign up for Azure through the Azure website. For example, when you sign up for an Azure Free Account, account with pay-as-you-go rates or as a Visual studio subscriber.	Service administrator and subscription owner
Microsoft Enterprise Agreement and Enterprise Dev/Test	Service administrator and subscription owner
Azure plan and Azure plan for DevTest	Owners of the subscription

An account administrator without the service administrator or subscription owner role can’t cancel an Azure subscription. However, an account administrator can make themself the service administrator and then they can cancel a subscription. For more information, see Change the Service Administrator.

What happens after subscription cancellation?

After you cancel, billing is stopped immediately. However, it can take up to 10 minutes for the cancellation to show in the portal. If you cancel in the middle of a billing period, we send the final invoice on your typical invoice date after the period ends.

After you cancel, your services are disabled. That means your virtual machines are de-allocated, temporary IP addresses are freed, and storage is read-only.

How To Cancel Subscription On Facetune 2

Delete free trial subscription

If you have a free trial subscription, you don't have to wait 30 days for the subscription to automatically delete. You can delete your subscription three days after you cancel it. The Delete subscription option isn't available until three days after you cancel your subscription.

Wait three days after the date you canceled the subscription.
Select your subscription on the Subscriptions page in the Azure portal.
Select the subscription that you want to delete.
Select Overview, and then select Delete subscription.

Delete other subscriptions

The only subscription type that you can manually delete is a free trial subscription. All other subscription types, including pay-as-you-go subscriptions, are deleted only through the subscription cancellation process. In other words, you can't delete a subscription directly unless it's a free trial subscription. However, after you cancel a subscription, you can create an Azure support request to ask to have the subscription deleted immediately.

Reactivate a subscription

If you cancel your subscription with Pay-As-You-Go rates accidentally, you can reactivate it in the Azure portal.

If your subscription isn't a subscription with Pay-As-You-Go rates, contact support within 90 days of cancellation to reactivate your subscription.

How do I delete my Azure Account?

I need to remove my account including all my personal information. I already canceled my active (Free Trial) subscriptions. I don't have any active subscriptions, and would like to totally delete my account.

If you have an Azure Active Directory account via your organization, the Azure AD administrator could delete the account. After that, your services are disabled. That means your virtual machines are de-allocated, temporary IP addresses are freed, and storage is read-only. In summary, once you cancel, billing is stopped immediately.
If you don't have an Azure AD account via your organization, you can cancel then delete your Azure subscriptions and then remove your credit card from the account. While the action doesn't delete the account, it renders it inoperable. You can go a step further and also delete the associated Microsoft account if it's not being used for any other purpose.

How do I cancel a Visual Studio Professional account?

See the Renewal and Cancellation article. If you have any Visual Studio Azure subscriptions, they need to be canceled and deleted as well.
