The 4-step cancellation

  1. Email the verified address

    partnerships@evernote.com, yoink-verified working email for Evernote (confirmed by tracked cancellations).

  2. Use a precise subject

    Subject: Cancellation Request, [your account email]

  3. Send this template

    Hi Evernote team,
    
    I'm writing to cancel the subscription on my account, [your account email].

    Please confirm by reply that the subscription has been cancelled and that no further charges will be taken.
    
    Best,
    [your name]
  4. Wait for confirmation

Evernote plans you can cancel

What happens to what you’ve already paid

Evernote refunds monthly plans within 20 days of the charge and annual plans within 60 days of the charge. Refund requests require written notice identifying your account and asking to cancel the specific paid service. No prorated refunds are given for partially used subscriptions once a new billing cycle has started. Purchases made through Apple or Google Play must be refunded by those stores, not Evernote.

For any monthly Individual Paid Service subscription fee, Evernote will process a refund if the request is received within twenty days of the date of the payment. For any annual Individual Paid Service subscription fee, Evernote will process a refund if the request is received within sixty days of the date of the payment.

Does Evernote charge a cancellation fee?

Evernote’s terms mention conditions worth checking before you cancel, see the plan notes and policy quote above for the specifics we found. In general: rolling monthly plans end at the period you’ve already paid for with nothing extra to pay, while minimum-term or contract plans can carry an early-exit charge until the term ends.

What doesn’t work for cancelling Evernote

Based on 6 sources, Reddit, app reviews, and direct testing. Skip these and save yourself the loop.

Cancelled Evernote but still being charged?

Three common reasons, in order of likelihood:

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 Evernote charges again.

How Evernote will try to keep you

Evernote 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.

Your rights when cancelling

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

United States

  • FTC Click-to-Cancel Rule (2024+)
    Cancel must be as easy as sign-up.

    The Federal Trade Commission’s Click-to-Cancel rule requires Evernote to make cancelling at least as simple as signing up, same channel, same number of clicks. If they buried the cancel button or forced a phone call, they’re in violation; report to reportfraud.ftc.gov.

  • California ARL (auto-renewal law)
    Renewal must be cancellable online.

    California Business & Professions Code §17602 forces any company billing California residents on auto-renewal to provide an online cancel mechanism. Lawsuits have been won on this; companies often refund quickly when it’s cited.

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; Evernote 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 Evernote’s own policy.

  • Consumer Rights Act 2015
    Services must be as described.

    If Evernote’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. Evernote must honour it regardless of where they’re headquartered.

Delete your Evernote 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 Evernote’s account settings, email partnerships@evernote.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 Evernote

Sign into **Evernote Web** → **Account Settings** → **Billing** → scroll to the bottom and click **Cancel subscription** → **Continue to cancel** → give a reason → **Cancel subscription**. Your paid features stay active until the end of the current billing cycle, after which the account automatically reverts to Evernote Free. You'll get an email confirmation, and a **Restore** button will appear in Billing History to confirm cancellation.
