AT&T Internet cancellation policy

Here's all the info you need to cancel your service, end it early, or return your equipment.

Cancellation policy

You may cancel your AT&T Internet service for any reason within 14 days of activation without paying an Early Termination Fee (ETF). You're responsible for all fees and charges incurred through cancellation and must return any leased equipment. If you cancel after 14 days and are subject to a term commitment, you must pay service fees and other charges incurred, including an ETF.

 

To cancel service:

  • Be sure that the account owner calls us at 800.288.2020.
  • Have the account number and personal identification number (PIN) on hand.
  • Call during normal operating hours. Cancellation requests received when we are closed will be handled on the next regular business day.

Early termination policy

You’ll be charged an Early Termination Fee (ETF) if you disconnect your AT&T Internet service more than 14 days after activation and you have a term commitment. The ETF is prorated and reduced for each month that your Internet service is active. The applicable ETF will appear on your bill as Early Termination Fee within 3 bill periods.

 

ETF example (amounts are estimates):

ETF is $180 and the term commitment is 12 months

Equipment return policy

Unless we instruct you in writing not to return your AT&T equipment, AT&T equipment must be returned to us undamaged within 21 days of your internet service cancellation. If you don’t return your AT&T equipment, you’ll be responsible for an equipment non-return fee of $150 which will be billed to your account or to the credit card on file. If the equipment is returned within 6 months of termination, the equipment non-return fee will be automatically refunded. Fees for damages will not be refunded. Do not remove or return wall-mounted AT&T equipment.

To return equipment:

  •  If you have this wall-mounted item, please leave it and its power cord as is; do not remove or return.
  • Head to the nearest UPS Store or FedEx® Office because we can’t accept returns at our AT&T stores. Be sure to bring your equipment and account number.
  • Keep the receipt from UPS after they scan, pack, and ship the equipment to us at no cost to you.
