Contact Malwarebytes Customer Support Via Phone

If you're having difficulties canceling your account with the above steps, you should reach out to Malwarebytes. Call Malwarebytes Customer Support and ask for assistance. You will have to provide personal and contact information to confirm your identity. Make sure to ask if you will be charged for the next month's subscription or if you've made the cutoff. Ask for the customer service agent to send you an email confirming the cancellation, and keep them on the line until you receive it.

Contact Malwarebytes Customer Support Via Email

If you prefer not to speak to someone on the phone, you can also contact the Malwarebytes customer support team via email. Provide as many details as possible in the email, including your account details, so the request is handled as quickly as possible.

Note that it may take several business days to receive a response from the customer support team via email. If you're close to the next period in your monthly billing cycle, it may be better to call in for help, to speed up the process.
