Can I cancel a DJI order after it has shipped?

No, DJI's help centre states clearly that once an order has shipped it cannot be cancelled through the store. Your options are (1) **refuse the parcel** at the door so it returns to the warehouse, or (2) accept delivery and open a change-of-mind return within 14 calendar days. Contact `onlinesales@dji.com` in parallel so the customer-service team can flag the shipment and pre-authorise the refund.

How to cancel an order on DJI store?

Sign into `store.dji.com`, open **My Orders**, find the order and hit **Cancel**. This only works while the status is still *Payment Received* or *Order Confirmed*, the moment it moves to *Warehouse Processing* or *Shipped*, the cancel button disappears and you must email `onlinesales@dji.com` to try to stop the shipment. If the package still leaves the warehouse, refuse it on delivery.

What if DJI ignores my cancellation email?

Escalate in writing to `support@dji.com` and copy `onlinesales@dji.com`, including your order number, the date you first requested cancellation and a 14-day deadline. If nothing moves, open a **chargeback with your card issuer** (or a Section 75 claim in the UK for purchases over £100), and, if you're in the EU/UK, file with your national consumer-protection body. Refusing delivery of the parcel also automatically forces a return.

Does DJI charge a restocking fee?

DJI itself doesn't publish a restocking fee on its store return page, but **authorised retailers do**, up to 40% of the purchase price if the drone has been activated, charged or removed from sealed packaging. To avoid it, don't turn the drone on, don't peel the battery seal, and keep every accessory and foam insert together. Request the return by email **before** you ship anything back.

How do I return a DJI drone bought from Amazon or a reseller?

DJI's DTC return policy only covers purchases made **directly from the DJI Online Store**. If you bought from Amazon, Best Buy, Currys, Argos or any authorised dealer, you have to use *their* return window and terms. DJI recommends contacting the seller first. For warranty issues (manufacturing defects) you can still open a repair case at `www.dji.com/support` regardless of where you bought it.

Can I return an activated DJI drone?

Generally, no, once a DJI product has been **activated, charged, updated or flown** it is considered 'used' and no longer eligible for a change-of-mind refund. Retailers can legally charge a restocking fee of up to 40% or reject the return entirely. The only exception is a manufacturing defect: report it within 7 days for DOA or 15 days for a performance fault, with photo or video evidence, and DJI covers the return shipping.

Who pays return shipping for a DJI return?

You do, DJI states that all shipping costs (including insurance, brokerage, duties and freight) for a change-of-mind return are at your own expense. The exception is a return for a **performance fault, manufacturing defect or Dead-on-Arrival** claim, where DJI issues a prepaid label. Always use a tracked, insured courier because DJI does not accept liability for parcels lost in transit back to them.

Why am I still being charged after cancelling DJI?

Usually one of three things: the cancellation never completed (no written confirmation), the subscription bills through Apple or Google and must be cancelled there, or a minimum term is still running. Charges continuing after a confirmed cancellation can be disputed with your bank as a chargeback.

How do I delete my DJI account?

Cancel the subscription first, then request account deletion in settings or by email. If there is no self-serve option, email a written erasure request citing the applicable data-protection law; most companies complete erasure within about 30 days.

What happens to what you’ve already paid

DJI gives you 14 calendar days from delivery to return a change-of-mind purchase for a full refund via the original payment method. The product must be unused, unactivated and in its original packaging with every accessory. You must email support before shipping anything back, and you pay the return shipping unless the item is defective. Refunds usually settle in 7 to 14 business days after DJI receives the goods.

Does DJI charge a cancellation fee?

We found no cancellation fee in DJI’s published terms. On a rolling plan you simply pay to the end of the current billing period and nothing after. If you’re inside a fixed minimum term, check your signup email for the end date, cancelling early is where fees usually hide.

What doesn’t work for cancelling DJI

Based on 5 sources, Reddit, app reviews, and direct testing. Skip these and save yourself the loop.

✕ Cancelling on the DJI Store after the order has shipped, DJI's help centre explicitly states an order can only be cancelled from 'My Orders' before shipment, post-shipment you must go through returns.
✕ Phoning to cancel an in-flight order, Reddit and DJI Forum posts repeatedly report no phone or email response when trying to stop an order in warehouse processing.
✕ Returning an activated / charged drone for a full refund, Any signs of activation, charging or use void the change-of-mind return and can trigger a restocking fee or rejection.
✕ Refunding DJI Care Refresh after using a replacement claim, Care can only be refunded if the covered aircraft has been returned and no service has been performed under the plan.
✕ Partial refund of a bundle, For discounted bundles, DJI will only refund the entire order, individual items in a bundle cannot be refunded separately.

Cancelled DJI but still being charged?

Three common reasons, in order of likelihood:

The cancellation didn’t actually complete. If you never received a written confirmation from DJI, treat it as not cancelled. Email onlinesales@dji.com referencing your original request date and ask for written confirmation plus a refund of any charge taken since.
You cancelled in the wrong place. Subscriptions started through the App Store or Google Play bill through Apple or Google, cancelling on DJI’s site doesn’t touch them. Check Settings → Subscriptions on iPhone, or Play Store → Payments & subscriptions on Android.
Billing lag. A charge that was already in flight when you cancelled can still land a few days later. One trailing charge can be normal; two is not.

If they keep charging after a confirmed cancellation, that’s chargeback territory: dispute the charge with your bank citing “subscription cancelled, merchant continued billing”. The yoink app also flags this automatically, it keeps watching your inbox after a confirmed cancellation and alerts you if DJI charges again.

How DJI will try to keep you

DJI may respond with a retention offer, a discount, a free month, or a downgrade to a cheaper tier. Don't engage with the counteroffer. Restate that you want a full cancellation and cite the consumer law again if they push back.

They’ll say: “DJI stalls in 'Warehouse Processing' rather than cancelling before shipment”
You say: Email onlinesales@dji.com immediately quoting the order number and ask them to roll the package back; if it ships anyway, refuse delivery at the door, DJI's own policy accepts this as a valid return trigger.
They’ll say: “Offering DJI Credits or a partial store credit instead of cash refund on a price-drop claim”
You say: Insist on the original payment method, the return policy states refunds are 'based on the original payment method' and you are entitled to that within the 14-day window.
They’ll say: “Rejecting the return because packaging or an accessory is missing”
You say: Under UK Consumer Contracts Regulations and EU Consumer Rights Directive the 14-day right of withdrawal cannot be voided by cosmetic packaging wear, reply citing statutory rights and escalate to your card issuer if refused.
They’ll say: “Delaying by asking for videos, serial photos, or DOA evidence loops”
You say: Send all requested evidence in one email, set a 14-day deadline for the refund and flag that you will file a Section 75 (UK) or chargeback claim if not resolved.

Your rights when cancelling

The law where you live is the strongest hook, lead with it when you contact the company.

Worldwide

Card-issuer chargeback
Your bank can reverse the charge.
Visa, Mastercard, and Amex all run chargeback schemes, “goods/services not as described” or “subscription not cancelled” are valid reason codes everywhere they operate. Your bank handles the dispute; DJI has ~45 days to defend.

Rights in other regions (United Kingdom, European Union)

United Kingdom

Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013
14-day cooling-off on new subscriptions.
You can terminate any continuous service contract within 14 days of starting it and recover any payment, no questions asked. Applies regardless of DJI’s own policy.
Consumer Rights Act 2015
Services must be as described.
If DJI’s service was misrepresented or didn’t deliver what was promised, you have a statutory right to remedy (repair, refund, or price reduction) regardless of their terms.

European Union

Consumer Rights Directive 2011/83/EU
14-day right of withdrawal across all EU states.
EU-wide statutory right to withdraw from any distance-sold contract within 14 days. Mirrored into local law in every member state. DJI must honour it regardless of where they’re headquartered.

Delete your DJI account (not just cancel)

Cancelling stops the billing; deleting removes your account and personal data. Do them in that order, deleting an account with an active subscription can leave the billing running with no way to log in and stop it.

If there’s no delete option in DJI’s account settings, email onlinesales@dji.com with the subject Account deletion request, [your account email] and ask for your account and personal data to be erased under state privacy laws such as the CCPA. They’re typically required to act on it, most companies complete erasure within about 30 days, and you should ask for written confirmation when it’s done.

Common questions about cancelling DJI

If your order has **not shipped**, log in to your DJI account and cancel it from **My Orders** on the DJI Store. If it has already shipped, DJI will not let you cancel, you either refuse the package on delivery or accept it and open a return within 14 days of receipt by emailing `support.eu@dji.com` (EU) or `onlinesales@dji.com`. Include your order number, the reason and your bank details if you paid by transfer.
