How hard is it to cancel A1 Telekom Austria?
A1 Telekom Austria scores 61/100 (grade C) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the AT — a partially documented cancellation policy with notable gaps. Cancellation is available via phone, postal mail, email, online (self-serve), in person.
A1 Austria contracts can be cancelled with a minimum notice period of one month to the end of the calendar month ("mindestens einem Monat zum Monatsende"). Cancellation is accepted by phone (0800 664 100, 24/7), written mail or fax (0800 664 101) to A1 Telekom Austria AG, Postfach 1001, 1011 Wien, or by scanned signed letter via email; online self-service cancellation via the Mein A1 portal or app is available only for some contract types, not universally. If a customer is still within the minimum contract term (typically 12 or 24 months), monthly fees remain due through the end of the binding period; the final invoice is calculated proportionally and rented equipment (routers, TV boxes) must be returned within 14 days. Austria's TKG consumer protections apply, but there is no Austrian equivalent of Germany's mandatory Kündigungsbutton law, so online self-service cancellation is not legally mandated.

Scope & fairness
This is the Documented-Policy tier: it measures how clearly the cancellation policy is published (cited, dated facts), not the behavioural experience of cancelling (Verified-Flow audit pending). Every company is scored on the same five dimensions with the same published weights — scores cannot be bought or removed. It is opinion grounded in disclosed facts, and not legal advice.
