FAQs

Can I get a refund?

I can no longer access the email address associated with my account

If you’ve lost access to the email used for your ChatGPT account, you have two options:

  1. Request cancellation on your behalf – Provide support with:

    • The inaccessible email address
    • The last four digits of the payment card linked to the subscription
    • The date of your most recent subscription payment

    This keeps the account open so you can update the payment method later.

  2. Delete your account and cancel the subscription – Submit a policy request via the Privacy Request Portal. Deleting the account is permanent and automatically cancels the subscription. More details:
