Frequently Asked Questions
How do I cancel my pCloud subscription?
You can cancel pCloud through your account settings on their website or app. The process is rated "easy" difficulty and takes 5 steps. Your access typically continues until the end of your current billing period, so you won't lose access immediately after canceling.
Will I get a refund if I cancel pCloud?
Most pCloud plans do not offer prorated refunds for the current billing period. Your access continues until the end of the period you've already paid for. If you recently subscribed or were charged unexpectedly, contact pCloud support to request a refund — many services will accommodate recent charges.
Can I pause my pCloud subscription instead of canceling?
pCloud may offer a pause or hold option that temporarily suspends your subscription without canceling it entirely. This preserves your account data and settings. Check your account settings for a pause option — if one isn't available, you can cancel and resubscribe later, though some settings or data may not be preserved.
What happens to my data if I cancel pCloud?
When you cancel pCloud, your stored files may be deleted after a grace period (typically 30–90 days). Download all important files before canceling. Some services keep your data temporarily and allow reactivation, while others may permanently delete files once the grace period ends.
Can I reactivate pCloud after canceling?
Yes, you can typically resubscribe to pCloud at any time after canceling. Most services allow you to reactivate your account with your original email address, and your previous settings or data may still be available. However, you may not get the same promotional pricing you originally signed up with — check for current deals before reactivating.
