Cancel Simply Business: Easy Method

What is Simply Business

Overview

Simply Business is an online insurance broker that helps small businesses find and buy business insurance policies from partner carriers.

The service provides online quotes, policy management, and customer support; policies may be issued under US or UK carrier terms depending on the product.

How it operates

Simply Business acts as an intermediary between you and the insurer and offers digital account access for policy administration.

Cancellation and refund terms are set by your policy and carrier; Simply Business provides the tools and customer service to request cancellation.

How to cancel Simply Business

Cancel online via your account

• Sign in to your Simply Business online account.
• Go to "Policy details" for the policy you want to cancel.
• Click "Cancel my policy" and follow the on‑screen instructions.
• This option is usually available if you paid by card.

Cancel by phone or written notice

• Call the cancellation telephone number: (844) 241‑6648. Cancellation is effective upon receipt of your notice.
• You can also send written notification to the Legal Department address (see Address section below) if you prefer postal cancellation.
• To stop automatic renewal any time before the renewal payment, use the digital assistant or contact support.
• No App Store/Google Play subscription cancellation method was found for policies; use web or phone methods instead.

What happens when you cancel

Confirmation and effective date

Cancellation is typically effective upon receipt of your cancellation notice or as specified by your policy or carrier.

Always request and save a confirmation number or written confirmation from Simply Business or the insurer.

Account access and renewal

Your online account usually remains accessible after cancellation for records and documentation.

Stopping automatic renewal prevents future charges if done before the renewal payment is processed.

Will I get a refund?

Cooling-off period and proportional refunds

There is a 14‑day cooling‑off period. If you cancel within 14 days, you are charged only for the time on cover.

Outside the cooling‑off period, refunds are generally proportional to unused cover, minus set‑up and cancellation fees.

Carrier variations and non-refundable items

• Refunds of prepaid premiums depend on the issuing carrier; some payments may be marked non‑refundable.
• Expect that certain fees (set‑up, broker fees, or explicitly non‑refundable items) may be deducted from any refund.
• Contact Simply Business or the insurer for the exact refund calculation and timeline for your policy.

Common mistakes

Missing the cooling-off window

Always request a confirmation number or email and keep records until any refund or final accounting is complete.
