Cancel Verizon: Easy Method
What is Verizon
Overview
Verizon is a U.S.-based telecommunications company that provides mobile service, device financing, and digital subscriptions.
Its publicly posted policies and customer agreements are focused on U.S. operations but apply to customers using Verizon services while in other countries, including roaming customers in New Zealand.
How it applies in New Zealand
Verizon does not publish New Zealand - specific plans or NZD pricing for local service; most support and billing remain U.S.-centric.
For roaming, Verizon publishes TravelPass pricing in USD; there is no NZ postal address for cancelling Verizon service in New Zealand.
How to cancel Verizon
Cancel mobile service (Verizon.com or phone)
- Cancel online via Verizon.com anytime.
- You can also cancel by phone or through your business support portal where applicable; Verizon does not list a New Zealand postal cancellation address.
- Note: cancelling early may still require paying for service through the end of your billing cycle and any remaining balance on financed devices.
Cancel subscriptions and platform purchases
- +play subscriptions: cancel at least one day before the next billing cycle at the +play website. Cancellation is not prorated; access continues until the period ends.
- Google Play purchases: cancel in the Google Play Store app or account - these subscriptions do not automatically end when Verizon service ends.
- App Store (iOS) purchases: cancel on your Apple device/account per Apple’s procedures; Verizon cannot cancel App Store subscriptions for you.
What happens when you cancel
Service access and billing
When you cancel mobile service, you generally retain access through the end of the billing cycle unless otherwise specified.
Billing may continue through the cycle and any outstanding device financing balance may still be charged.
Equipment and subscriptions
You must return any equipment within Verizon’s applicable return periods to avoid fees or restocking charges.
Platform-managed subscriptions (Google Play, App Store) remain active until cancelled directly through those platforms.
Will I get a refund?
Device returns and refunds
Verizon’s return policy allows refunds if equipment is returned within 30 days, subject to possible restocking fees and promotional adjustments.
Returns after the allowed window generally do not receive a refund; early termination or outside-window returns may incur fees.
Subscription refunds and exceptions
- +play purchases: refunds may be available within 30 days only for faults (non-receipt, wrong item, defective, or materially different product), not for buyer’s remorse.
- Platform purchases: refunds for Google Play or App Store purchases follow Google’s or Apple’s refund rules; Verizon’s terms do not override those platform policies.
- There is no explicit 14-day cooling-off refund right listed in Verizon’s public terms for New Zealand customers.
Verizon plans and pricing
Pricing overview
Verizon does not publish NZD-denominated mobile plans for New Zealand residents.
Most international pricing referenced by Verizon (for travellers) is listed in USD.
Representative table
| Plan / Item | Available in New Zealand | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Postpaid mobile plans | Varies | Verizon does not offer NZ-specific plan listings; U.S. plans apply when used abroad. |

| +play subscriptions | Varies | Subscriptions managed through +play follow +play terms and billing. |
Your consumer rights in New Zealand
Statutory protections
New Zealand laws such as the Consumer Guarantees Act and the Fair Trading Act may provide rights for faulty goods and misrepresentation.
Those statutory protections can offer remedies for defective products even when a company’s own terms do not expressly provide them.
How Verizon’s terms relate
- Verizon’s publicly posted terms do not reference a New Zealand 14-day cooling-off period or NZ-specific consumer rights.
- Platform purchases (Apple/Google) are subject to those platforms’ refund and dispute procedures, which may provide additional remedies.
Customer experiences
Summary of reported positives
There are few significant positive reviews for Verizon on Trustpilot New Zealand; most public feedback about Verizon’s US service shows more negative sentiment in that venue.
Some users report straightforward online cancellation when following proper steps and returning equipment within policy windows.
Common negative reports
- Complaints include long waits, difficulty cancelling, billing continuing after cancellation, and unresolved returns or refunds.
- Issues are frequently reported around promotional adjustments and device return handling.
Documentation checklist
What to prepare before you cancel
- Account number and account holder name as shown on your Verizon account.
- Phone number(s) or lines you intend to cancel and device ESN/IMEI or serial numbers.
- Order numbers, purchase receipts, and proof of payment where available.
Proof for returns or disputes
- Tracking numbers and carrier receipts for returned equipment.
- Photographs or screenshots of account pages, billing charges, and cancellation confirmations.
- Correspondence logs (dates, representative names, case/reference numbers).
Common mistakes
Failing to cancel platform subscriptions
Many customers cancel Verizon service but forget to cancel subscriptions bought through Google Play or the App Store.
Those subscriptions continue to bill unless cancelled directly with the platform.
Assuming automatic refunds or cooling-off rights
Customers sometimes assume a 14-day cooling-off refund applies; Verizon’s terms do not state such a right for New Zealand customers.
Also, returning equipment late or not obtaining return tracking often leads to denied refunds or fees.
