To close your account, go to Settings > Account settings > Delete my account. There's no phone line. Escalate to legal@vinted.co.uk with subject 'Formal complaint, order [number]'. Card refunds take up to 5 business days.
Or let yoink do it for you.

Team Vinted won’t action a cancellation from an email alone, use the fastest channel above for the cancellation itself. This email still earns its place: it puts your cancellation date in writing (your evidence if they keep billing) and it’s where the refund request happens.

Team Vinted plans you can cancel
- Buyer Protection fee (per order)
Not a subscription. Every order made through Vinted gets this fee automatically at checkout. On vinted.co.uk the listing prices suggest it is about £0.70 + 5% of the item price (for example £10.00 becomes £11.20 incl.). You can't opt out. You avoid it only by not buying.
- Item Bump (seller promotion)
A one-off paid boost that runs for 3 or 7 days. UK prices reportedly start from £0.95 and depend on the item price and duration. It doesn't auto-renew, so there is nothing to cancel. You can lower an item's price while it is bumped, but not raise it.
- Wardrobe Spotlight / Showcase (seller promotion)
A one-off, single-use paid feature. It starts immediately after purchase and runs for 7 consecutive days. You need at least 5 visible listings. It doesn't auto-renew. It has been renamed 'Showcase' in some markets. The UK price appears only on Vinted's price list and at checkout.
What happens to what you’ve already paid
Item purchases made with the 'Buy now' button are covered by Buyer Protection. You can get a refund if the order never shipped, got lost, arrived damaged or is significantly not as described. You must press 'I have an issue' within 2 days of the item being marked delivered. After that, or once you press 'Everything is OK', the money goes to the seller and refunds end. An unshipped order can be cancelled for a full refund: Vinted Wallet refunds arrive within hours and card, Apple Pay or Google Pay refunds within 5 business days. Changing your mind or a bad fit isn't covered (that's up to the seller), and buyers usually pay return postage. Paid seller extras (Bump, Wardrobe Spotlight) are one-off, non-refundable purchases, and payments made outside Vinted aren't covered at all.
“When an order is accepted, or no issues are reported in time, your payment is issued to the seller. This means the order is completed on Vinted, and refunds are no longer possible.”
, Team Vinted terms
Asking specifically for money back, not just a cancellation? See the dedicated Team Vinted refund guide , same data, but framed around the policy + escalation paths.
Does Team Vinted charge a cancellation fee?
Team Vinted’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. If you signed up online within the last 14 days, the Consumer Contracts Regulations give you a cooling-off right to walk away, fee-free, for most digital subscriptions.
What doesn’t work for cancelling Team Vinted
Based on 8 sources, Reddit, app reviews, and direct testing. Skip these and save yourself the loop.
- ✕ Calling Vinted customer service, Vinted runs no phone support in the UK, US or EU. Consumer directories confirm there's no helpline, and any 'Vinted phone number' you find online is likely a scam.
- ✕ Cancelling an order after the seller has shipped, Either side can cancel an order only before it ships. Once tracking shows movement you have to wait for delivery and then report an issue.
- ✕ Requesting a refund because you changed your mind or it doesn't fit, Buyer Protection covers only lost, damaged or significantly-not-as-described items. Change-of-mind returns are at the seller's discretion.
- ✕ Reporting a problem after the 2-day window or after tapping 'Everything is OK', Payment releases to the seller automatically, the order completes, and Vinted's policy says refunds are no longer possible.
- ✕ Asking the in-app support agent to 'escalate internally', Users report automated or AI-style replies that close cases as a 'final decision' and refuse internal escalation. Some threaten to close the complaint if you don't reply within 24 hours.
- ✕ Deleting your account to force a resolution or refund, Deletion is blocked while orders or disputes are open. Once you deactivate, you lose access to your balance and order history, and you may no longer receive appeal outcomes.
- ✕ Paying a seller outside Vinted (bank transfer, PayPal friends), Vinted's refund policy doesn't cover off-platform payments and they offer no support for them.
- ✕ Appealing a ban or moderation decision more than once, A decision can be appealed only once, within 6 months. Later appeals get an automatic 'cannot appeal' reply.
Cancelled Team Vinted 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 Team Vinted, treat it as not cancelled. Email
support@vinted.comreferencing 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 Team Vinted’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 Team Vinted charges again.
How Team Vinted will try to keep you
Team Vinted 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: “Automated support closes the case as a 'final decision' and won't escalate (widely reported on Trustpilot and Facebook groups).”
You say: Send a formal written complaint to legal@vinted.co.uk from the email address on your Vinted account. Include the order number, a timeline, photos and tracking evidence, plus a 14-day deadline. One user had a closed case reopened and was paid after filing through an independent complaints platform, so a dated paper trail counts.
They’ll say: “The agent asks for 'more details' and threatens to close the complaint if you don't reply within 24 hours.”
You say: Reply the same day with everything at once: photos of the item, inner and outer packaging and labels. Confirm in writing that you want the case kept open. Keep screenshots of every message.
They’ll say: “Shipping and loss investigations stretch out ('up to 35 days', 'several weeks'), with repeated 'please be patient' auto-replies.”
You say: Ask for a decision by a specific date. If the money is still stuck, start a card chargeback (or a Section 75 claim for UK credit-card purchases over £100) alongside the case. You don't have to wait for Vinted to reply.
They’ll say: “Manual order cancellation can trigger automatic negative feedback.”
You say: Message the other member first and agree to cancel together, so they can edit or delete any feedback. As a buyer, you can also simply wait for the order to cancel automatically after the seller misses the shipping deadline.
They’ll say: “A permanent ban leaves your remaining balance locked.”
You say: Use 'Contact us' in the Help Centre and ask for the temporary unblock so you can withdraw your balance. If you're ignored, send a Subject Access Request to privacysupport@vinted.co.uk asking for the ban reason and any automated decision-making, and copy in legal@vinted.co.uk.
Your rights when cancelling
The law where you live is the strongest hook, lead with it when you contact the company.
United Kingdom
- Consumer Contracts Regulations 201314-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 Team Vinted’s own policy.
- Consumer Rights Act 2015Services must be as described.
If Team Vinted’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.
Worldwide
- Card-issuer chargebackYour 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; Team Vinted has ~45 days to defend.
Rights in other regions (European Union)
European Union
- Consumer Rights Directive 2011/83/EU14-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. Team Vinted must honour it regardless of where they’re headquartered.
Delete your Team Vinted 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 Team Vinted’s account settings, email support@vinted.com with the subject Account deletion request, [your account email] and ask for your account and personal data to be erased under UK GDPR (Article 17, the right to erasure). 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 Team Vinted
Officially, neither. Vinted decides based on evidence and its Refund Policy. Buyers are protected if an item never arrives, arrives damaged or is significantly not as described, **as long as they report it within 2 days** of delivery. Sellers must refund genuine not-as-described claims, but get compensation to their Wallet if a carrier loses or damages a parcel. Both sides complain about automated decisions on Trustpilot. Whichever side you're on, detailed photos of the item, inner and outer packaging and labels are what win cases.
Money-back questions (windows, pro-rata, chargebacks) are covered in the Team Vinted refund guide. Need a human for something else entirely? The Team Vinted contact guide lists every channel that actually answers.
