How to cancel Metronet

If you are with MetroFibre (South Africa)

• Give at least 48 hours notice before your final billing date, as required in public FAQs.

What happens when you cancel

Service access and final billing

When cancellation is accepted the provider will set a final billing date and bill any outstanding charges up to that date.

Make sure to confirm the effective end date and whether the account remains active until the end of the billing period.

Data, accounts and equipment

Account access (email, portal) typically remains available until the final billing date; download any personal data before that time.

Provider-owned hardware must be returned in working condition to avoid charges; check the provider’s return process and deadlines.

Will I get a refund?

Metronet (USA) refund policy

Metronet’s terms state there are no refunds for services already rendered.

If you prepaid for future services you may request a refund as credits on your final invoice, provided the account is current, equipment is returned in working condition, and the request is made within 60 days of the final invoice. See Metronet terms for details: Metronet terms.
