How to cancel McAfee
41/100 to cancel
Mostly Compliant, easier to leave than 183 of the 319 we've scored.
Tap a column for what it measures. How we score
Quick answer
Sign in at myaccount.mcafee.com, select Subscriptions, select Cancel next to your plan, then skip the discount on the "Before you go..." page and select Cancel auto-renewal. Do it at least 31 days before the expiry date: McAfee charges the renewal 30 days early. That stops the next charge, and your protection runs to the end of the term you paid for. A refund is a separate request, by phone or chat only, within 30 days of buying or 60 days of a renewal charge. Uninstalling McAfee does not stop the billing.
Why this score?
