Cancellation Lynda: Easy Method
What is Lynda
Lynda was a subscription-based online learning platform offering video courses in business, technology and creative skills; it has since been integrated into LinkedIn Learning. It provides on-demand courses, certificates of completion and corporate accounts for teams and enterprises.
How to cancel Lynda
Cancellation steps depend on how you subscribed - directly on the LinkedIn Learning site (formerly Lynda), through the mobile app stores, or via an employer/administrator account. Below are general steps to cancel a personal subscription; if you have a corporate or group account, you must contact your account administrator or your organisation's LinkedIn Learning administrator.
- On the web: Sign in to LinkedIn Learning, go to Me > Access My Account (or Account settings) > Manage subscription, then follow the cancel link and confirm cancellation.
- On iOS: Open Settings in your Apple ID account or App Store subscriptions and cancel the LinkedIn Learning subscription through Apple (Apple handles billing and refunds).
- On Android: Open Google Play Store > Menu > Subscriptions and cancel the LinkedIn Learning subscription through Google Play (Google handles billing and refunds).
- If billed by your employer or through an enterprise plan, contact your organisation's LinkedIn Learning administrator or your HR/Learning & Development team to request cancellation or account changes.
- If you prefer mail, send a written cancellation request to the corporate office (see Address section) - send by registered post (raccomandata A/R) and keep proof of mailing.
What happens when you cancel
When you cancel a personal subscription, you generally retain access to your LinkedIn Learning content until the end of the current paid billing period. After that, access to course videos and certificates is removed unless you re-subscribe. Administrative or enterprise cancellations are handled by the account administrator and may result in immediate access removal depending on the organisation’s policies.
Automatic renewals stop for future billing cycles after cancellation. Your account profile, learning history and completions associated with your LinkedIn account typically remain, but access to course content requires an active subscription. Billing records and receipts remain available in your account; if you need them for tax or reimbursement purposes, download or save them before you lose access.
Will I get a refund?
Refund eligibility varies. LinkedIn Learning (Lynda) generally does not offer refunds for completed subscription periods, but exceptions can apply for accidental charges, duplicate payments, or within a promotional trial period. Refunds for subscriptions purchased through Apple or Google are subject to the respective store’s refund policies and must be requested from Apple or Google. For enterprise or team contracts, refunds or pro-rated credits depend on the terms of the contract between your organisation and LinkedIn.

Your consumer rights in Canada
Canadian consumers have rights around clear pre-purchase information, consent for recurring charges, and remedies for unauthorized or misleading charges. Digital subscription protections vary by province; some provincial consumer protection laws cover automatic renewals and require clear cancellation instructions. If you believe you were billed incorrectly or without consent, you can dispute the charge with your payment provider, contact LinkedIn Learning support, and, if necessary, file a complaint with your provincial consumer protection office. For general federal guidance see the Government of Canada consumer protection resources: https://www.canada.ca/en/services/business/consumer-protection.html.
Customer experiences
User reports are mixed: many find web cancellations straightforward via the LinkedIn Learning account settings, while others report confusion when subscriptions were purchased through Apple or Google - those require cancellation through the respective store. Complaints most commonly involve unexpected renewals, difficulty locating the correct cancellation setting, or delays in support responses. Enterprise users sometimes face extra steps because cancellations must go through administrators.
Documentation checklist
- Account email and LinkedIn/LinkedIn Learning username
- Subscription start date and last billing date (from your receipt or bank statement)
- Copy of the cancellation confirmation email or screenshot
- Receipts/invoices for recent payments
- If mailing, a copy of the registered-post receipt and the written cancellation request
Common mistakes
Common mistakes include assuming cancelling the app removes the subscription (app removal does not cancel store or web subscriptions), waiting until after renewal to cancel (which often results in being charged for another period), and contacting the wrong support channel (contact Apple for App Store purchases, Google for Play purchases, and LinkedIn Learning for web-billed accounts). Another frequent error is not saving the cancellation confirmation email or reference number - keep proof as evidence in case of a dispute.
Comparative recap
| Method | Refund | Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| Website (LinkedIn Learning) | Possible but limited; depends on timing and reason | Low - straightforward in account settings |
| iOS (Apple App Store) | Refunds handled by Apple per their policies | Medium - must use Apple account/subscriptions |
| Android (Google Play) | Refunds handled by Google Play per their policies | Medium - must use Google Play subscriptions |
| Mail (registered post) | Possible, but slower; depends on proof and policy | High - slower and requires documentation |
After cancelling
After cancellation, retain the confirmation email and any receipts. Verify that access remains until the end of your paid period and check your next bank or card statement to ensure recurring charges have stopped. If you need technical help, account documents, or to request a refund, contact LinkedIn Learning support: LinkedIn Learning Help. For store-related issues use Apple or Google support pages: Apple subscriptions and Google Play subscriptions. If you continue to have unresolved billing problems, contact your card issuer to discuss a dispute or chargeback.
