How to Cancel

  • Customers can cancel their service at any time by requesting to cancel in writing (by email is fine) no less than 7 days before the renewal date.

  • On the date confirmed by City Mailing Address the service will cease. Any mail currently in our possession will be forwarded onto the customer provided there is enough money in the mail deposit, customers who collect their mail should ensure this is collected on this date. Any mail received after the end date, not collected or not forwarded due to insufficient finds will be returned to sender.

Payments

  • City Mailing Address will stop any recurring payments over which they have control this is limited to Direct Debit Payments and Continuous Card Authority.
  • The customer must immediately cancel any automated payments under their control such as bank standing orders or PayPal subscriptions.
  • Where a renewal payment is received after the cancellation has been confirmed, City Mailing Address will assume that the customer has changed their mind and the service will renew as if no cancellation request had been received.
  • Any request to cancel after a payment has been made will be treated as a cancellation from the next renewal date. With the exception of services cancelled in accordance with our newly ordered services policy services cannot be cancelled retrospectively.
