- If you're past 14 days on an annual plan, Adobe will show a cancellation fee — consider switching to monthly instead.
Step 2 — Request the refund
- If within 14 days, the refund processes automatically with cancellation.
- If past 14 days and you have a strong reason (duplicate plan, software not working), open a chat at helpx.adobe.com/contact.html and request a refund or fee waiver.
