How to Cancel BeenVerified and Stop the Charges in 2026
To cancel BeenVerified, log in at beenverified.com, open Account Settings, choose Billing (or Subscription), click Cancel Subscription, and confirm. If the dashboard fights you, call support at 888-579-5910 (BeenVerified also lists 866-885-6480 for cancellations) or email support@beenverified.com. Always save a cancellation confirmation, because the plan auto-renews until you kill it.
Short answer: Cancel in Account Settings under Billing, or by phone/email if the page hides the button. People-search sites renew quietly every month, so confirm the cancellation in writing and watch your card.

Why is BeenVerified so hard to cancel?
People-search sites like BeenVerified make money on subscriptions you forget about. The sign-up is one click. The cancel button is buried two or three menus deep, and the "are you sure" screens try to talk you into staying. The membership is a recurring auto-renew, so it keeps billing your card until you actively stop it. That is the trap: not a one-time fee, a quiet monthly charge.
Here is the plain version. BeenVerified does not advertise a standard refund policy, and most plans run until the end of the billing cycle you already paid for. So the move is simple. Cancel now, get proof, and dispute any charge that lands after you cancelled. Verify current terms on BeenVerified's own site before you rely on any detail here, since companies change menus and prices.
How do I cancel BeenVerified from my account dashboard?
This is the fastest route if you signed up directly on the website with a card.
- Go to beenverified.com and log in with the email and password you used to sign up.
- Open Account Settings (sometimes shown as the menu under your name or a gear icon).
- Select Billing or Subscription to see your current plan and the next renewal date.
- Click Cancel Subscription. Push past the retention offers and the "are you sure" prompts.
- Confirm your choice. Do not close the tab until you see a cancellation message.
- Watch for a confirmation email. If none arrives, log back in and check that the subscription status reads cancelled.
Grab your 9-digit member ID before you start. It sits on the right side of your dashboard or in your welcome email, and support will ask for it if you have to call.
How do I cancel BeenVerified by phone or email?
If the dashboard button is missing, greyed out, or just refuses to confirm, go straight to a human.
- Call 888-579-5910. BeenVerified also publishes 866-885-6480 for cancellations. The call center generally runs Monday through Sunday, 6:00 AM to 11:30 PM ET. Confirm the current number on their contact page.
- Give your full name, account email, and 9-digit member ID. Say clearly: "Cancel my subscription and stop all future charges."
- Ask for a cancellation confirmation number and the rep's name. Write both down. This is your proof if a charge shows up later.
- Prefer a paper trail? Email support@beenverified.com with the same request and your member ID. Email replies can take 2 to 3 business days, so send it well before your renewal date.
Whichever route you take, the goal is the same: written or numbered proof that you cancelled, dated before the next bill.
What if I subscribed through Apple or Google?
If you signed up through an iPhone or Android app, BeenVerified cannot cancel the billing for you, and deleting the app does nothing. The charge lives in your app store.
- iPhone or iPad: Settings, tap your name, tap Subscriptions, select BeenVerified, then Cancel Subscription.
- Android: open the Google Play Store, tap your profile, Payments & subscriptions, Subscriptions, select BeenVerified, then Cancel subscription.
Not sure which way you signed up? Check the merchant name on your bank statement. A charge routed through Apple or Google means you cancel in the store, not on the website.
What if the charges keep coming after I cancel?
Cancelling stops future renewals, but it does not undo a charge that already hit. If you were billed after you cancelled, or you were charged for a trial you meant to drop, you have options.
- Ask BeenVerified first. Email support within 24 to 48 hours of the charge and request a courtesy refund. Quote your cancellation confirmation number. There is no guarantee, but a quick, polite ask is sometimes honored.
- Dispute the charge with your bank. Under the federal Fair Credit Billing Act, you can dispute a credit card billing error, including an unauthorized or wrongly billed charge, in writing within 60 days of the statement that shows it. Send the dispute to your card issuer's billing-inquiries address, not the payment address.
- Keep your evidence. Your cancellation email, confirmation number, and screenshots of the cancelled status are what win a dispute.

How do I get my information removed from BeenVerified?
Important distinction: cancelling your subscription stops the billing, it does not remove your personal profile from BeenVerified's search results. Those are two separate actions. To opt out, use BeenVerified's opt-out page, find your record, and follow the removal steps. Do that even after you cancel if you want your data off the site.

Common questions
Does BeenVerified give refunds?
BeenVerified does not advertise a standard refund policy, and most plans run to the end of the billing cycle. If you were charged unexpectedly, email support within 24 to 48 hours and ask for a courtesy refund. If they decline and the charge was unauthorized, you can dispute it with your card issuer.
Will deleting the BeenVerified app stop the charges?
No. If you subscribed through Apple or Google, deleting the app does not cancel billing. You must cancel the subscription inside your device's app store settings.
How do I know my BeenVerified cancellation actually went through?
Look for a confirmation email or a cancellation confirmation number from a phone or email request. Then log back in and check that your subscription status reads cancelled. Keep that proof in case a charge appears later.
Does cancelling BeenVerified remove my personal information?
No. Cancelling stops the billing only. To take your profile down, complete BeenVerified's separate opt-out process on their website.
Can I dispute a BeenVerified charge with my bank?
Yes. Under the Fair Credit Billing Act, you can dispute an unauthorized or incorrect credit card charge in writing within 60 days of the statement showing it. Keep your cancellation proof to support the dispute.
Buried cancel buttons and "courtesy refund" runarounds are exactly Karen's fight. Hand over the BeenVerified mess and Karen cancels the subscription, chases the confirmation, and disputes charges that slip through. Outcome is not guaranteed, but you stop doing the dirty work. Put Karen on it.
