Steps

  1. If you do not accept the new rate, cancel. On an annual contract billed monthly, ask Customer Support whether the early cancellation fee applies when you cancel because of a rate change.

Watch out

  • The Adobe Account plan page needs sign-in and a JavaScript browser. The Adobe help center (helpx.adobe.com) blocks automated fetches.
  • No customer support phone number is published on adobe.com contact pages; the numbers listed there are for sales.
  • Annual contracts billed monthly carry a lump-sum early cancellation fee after 14 days.
