WSJ Print Edition cancellation: frequently asked questions
Does canceling WSJ Print Edition stop the charges immediately?
No. Canceling stops future renewals but you keep access until the end of the billing period you already paid for. After that date WSJ Print Edition will not charge you again. If you were charged unexpectedly, request a refund separately.
Can I get a refund from WSJ Print Edition?
Refunds are handled by Apple or Google, not by WSJ Print Edition directly. On iPhone, go to reportaproblem.apple.com, sign in, find the WSJ Print Edition charge and choose Request a refund. On Android, open the Play Store order history, select the purchase and tap Report a problem. Requests made within 48 hours are often approved automatically.
Why is WSJ Print Edition still charging me after I canceled?
The most common causes: the cancellation did not finish (check that Subscriptions shows WSJ Print Edition as Expired), you have a second subscription under a different Apple ID or Google account, or you canceled inside the app but not in the store where billing actually lives. Cancel it in the App Store subscription settings to be sure.
How do I delete my WSJ Print Edition account?
Deleting your account is separate from canceling the subscription. To remove your data, delete the account inside the WSJ Print Edition app settings first, then cancel the subscription in the App Store and uninstall the app. Canceling alone does not erase your account.
Will I lose access to WSJ Print Edition right after I cancel?
No. You keep full access to WSJ Print Edition until the paid period ends, so there is no benefit to waiting. Cancel as soon as you decide, and enjoy the remaining days you already paid for.
