Watch Out

The cancel option is buried — there's no cancel link on the Account Overview page, only under Orders.

You'll face 4+ retention screens: discount offers, pause prompts, surveys, and a perks page.

The FTC fined Chegg $7.5M in 2025 for making cancellation too difficult — the process has improved but remains lengthy.

Chegg has historically continued charging ~200,000 users after they believed they'd canceled.

Mobile web browsers may hide the final 'Cancel subscription' button below the fold — scroll down.

Chegg does not offer self-service refunds; you must contact customer service.

Canceling on subsidiary sites (BibMe, EasyBib) requires navigating back to chegg.com.
