Chegg is an education technology company based in the US, and it offers student services such as online tutoring, test preparation, internship matching, and college application advice. You can also rent digital or physical textbooks from the company.

What happens when you no longer want to use Chegg's services and want to cancel your account? You can cancel your Gregg account depending on the services you have subscribed from the company.

There are a plethora of reasons why you may want to cancel your Chegg account. You may no longer need to use their services. You may find similar services for a cheaper price. You also may have issues with the site that you deem irresolvable. Regardless, cancelling your Chegg account is a relatively simple process.

It is crucial to know that you can pause your Chegg account if you only want to close it temporarily. Pausing your account means that you are no longer charged for Chegg services while you are not using them. However, you will find your bookmarks, Expert Q&A questions, and other account settings just the way you left them. Moreover, pausing is only possible for monthly Chegg subscribers.

You can pause your subscription to Chegg through the following process:

  1. Launch the web browser on your desktop and go to the Chegg website
  2. Input your log in details and log in to your account
  3. Go to 'My Account'
  4. Click 'Orders'
  5. Under 'Subscriptions' scroll to the particular Chegg subscription you want to pause and click 'Pause Subscriptions.' In this case you should choose all of them
  6. Choose how long you would like to pause your account. The options range from one to six months
  7. Click 'Pause Subscription' to confirm the pause.

Make sure you close any open transactions you may have with Chegg before closing your account such as book rentals, refunds or returns. Failure to do so may lead to further charges on your credit or debit card.

Cancelling Your Chegg Account

You can cancel your Chegg in a variety of ways including:

  3. Go to 'My Account'
  4. Click 'Orders'
  5. Under 'Subscriptions' scroll to the particular Chegg subscription you want to cancel be it Chegg Study, Math Solver, Writing or Tutors. If you want to cancel your entire account, select them all and then click 'Cancel Subscription'
  6. On the subsequent screen select an apt reason for why you are cancelling your account. Once your subscription cancellation is cancelled, charges will no longer be applied but you still have access to Chegg services for the remainder of your billing period.
