Cancel Bloomberg: Easy Method
What is Bloomberg
Overview
Bloomberg is a global financial news, data and analysis service that provides real-time market data, journalism and subscription content via its website and mobile app.
Subscribers receive unlimited access to Bloomberg content, tools and commentary across devices according to the plan purchased.
How people use it
Users rely on Bloomberg for market news, in-depth reporting and investment insights tailored to professionals and individual investors.
Access is delivered immediately after sign-up, which affects cancellation and refund expectations for digital content.
How to cancel Bloomberg
Cancel via Bloomberg website
For subscriptions managed on Bloomberg.com sign in to your account to begin cancellation.
- Sign in to your Bloomberg account at bloomberg.com.
- Select "Contact Support to Cancel" from your account or support options.
- Follow any instructions provided by support to confirm cancellation.
Cancel via Apple App Store
If you subscribed through the Apple App Store you must cancel in your Apple Account Settings.
- Open Settings on your iPhone or iPad, tap your name, then Subscriptions.
- Find the Bloomberg subscription and turn off Auto-Renew at least 24 hours before the period ends.
- Ensure cancellation confirmation from Apple is received; Bloomberg cannot cancel App Store subscriptions for you.
What happens when you cancel
Access after cancellation
Monthly subscriptions continue until the end of the current billing period and then stop; you keep access through that date.
Annual subscriptions remain active until the end of the annual term and then end; Bloomberg does not prorate or extend time after cancellation.
Renewal and data
Auto-renewal is enabled by default for app-store subscriptions unless you turn it off in your account settings.
Saved preferences, bookmarks or account data may remain in your Bloomberg account after cancellation; check account settings or contact support for data queries.
Will I get a refund?
Bloomberg refund policy
Bloomberg generally does not provide refunds for monthly or annual cancellations as a standard policy.
Bloomberg reserves the right to issue refunds or credits at its sole discretion in exceptional cases.
Exceptions and statutory points
There is no automatic 14-day statutory cooling-off right for immediately delivered digital content under Bloomberg's Terms.
- Under New Zealand practice, digital subscriptions delivered immediately are typically exempt from a mandatory 14‑day refund window.
- Requests for discretionary refunds should be directed to Bloomberg support with your subscription details.

Your consumer rights in New Zealand
Digital content and cooling-off
In New Zealand, digital content delivered immediately (such as news app access) generally does not carry a statutory 14‑day cooling-off period.
This reflects industry practice that immediate access to digital goods removes the standard "return" expectation applicable to physical goods.
Consumer Guarantees Act and remedies
The Consumer Guarantees Act offers protection for goods and services, but its application to digital subscriptions is limited where access is provided as described.
- If a service is not provided as described, you may have remedies under NZ law - document the problem and contact the provider first.
- For unresolved issues, consider contacting Consumer Protection or seeking dispute resolution advice in New Zealand.
Customer experiences
Positive feedback
Many users praise Bloomberg for its depth of information, timely market coverage and reliability of data and analysis.
Subscribers often cite quality journalism and comprehensive market tools as key benefits.
Negative feedback
Common complaints include unexpected automatic renewals, difficulty cancelling and limited refund outcomes.
Some users report the app or website can be unintuitive or subject to glitches; customer service experiences are mixed.
Documentation checklist
What to prepare before contacting support
- Account email and username used to subscribe.
- Subscription receipt or order number from Bloomberg or Apple.
- Date of purchase and last billing date.
Optional supporting documents
- Screenshots of your subscription status in the app or Apple Subscriptions screen.
- Any email confirmations or cancellation attempts and replies.
Common mistakes
Assuming Apple can be cancelled from Bloomberg
Purchases made through the Apple App Store must be cancelled via your Apple account; Bloomberg cannot turn off App Store auto‑renew for you.
Check the app or Apple subscription settings rather than contacting Bloomberg support first for App Store purchases.
Expecting automatic refunds
Many subscribers expect pro-rated refunds after cancelling - Bloomberg’s standard position is no refund for monthly or annual cancellations.
If you believe an exception applies, provide clear documentation and request consideration from Bloomberg support promptly.
