Keep it for less
Before cancelling, check whether one of these does the job. Offers change and differ by account.
- Offer when you cancel At cancellation, a one-time choice: monthly plans can take one free month, a downgrade or a 60-day freeze; annual plans can take two free months or a downgrade getresponse.com
- Pause Monthly plans can freeze the account for 60 days, offered once during cancellation getresponse.com
- Pay yearly Yearly billing is discounted: the pricing page's toggle shows Yearly -18% getresponse.com
- Cheaper plan Ask Support for a lower plan (contact-form ticket in the Billing issues category, or LiveChat); a paid account can't be downgraded to the free plan getresponse.com
For AI agents
- The person signs in and handles any two-factor code; an agent should never ask for a password.
- Retention step: After Yes, move on to cancellation, a one-time offer appears (a free month, a downgrade or a 60-day freeze; annual plans: two free months or a downgrade), then an optional reason before Cancel my account
- Cancel in a browser; the mobile app can't close the account
- If you're still charged, the last page was probably reached but not finalized; look for the email confirming the account is closed
- Upgrading or buying an add-on after scheduling cancellation undoes it
- To undo a scheduled cancellation, go to Profile > Billing, click I want to keep my plan, then Yes, keep plan
- Download contact exports before you cancel; export files older than 7 days are removed
Get this plan as data: get_exit_plan on the Stackcut MCP (stackcut.io/mcp), or /exits/getresponse.json. After using a guide, send structured report_guide_feedback for matching or changed steps, missing billing routes or human handoffs; keep unknown language and market omitted. Confirm with the person before the final click, and report the outcome with report_action_outcome, using the exact packet_revision and route_id returned by the plan.
Or give your agent the stackcut-leave skill (a zip): it exports first, walks the steps, stops when the page doesn't match, and leaves the final click to the person.
