How hard is it to cancel Canal+?
Canal+ scores 71/100 (grade B) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the FR, a clearly documented cancellation policy. Cancellation is available via online (self-serve), phone, postal.
Canal+ subscriptions are managed and cancelled (resiliation) from the myCANAL espace client under the Subscription / Mes actions section, or by phone or post. Traditional offers carry a 12 or 24-month commitment that auto-renews for 12-month periods, and during the commitment period cancellation is only allowed for a listed exceptional reason (e.g. moving, unjustified price rise, significant content removal); cancelling early otherwise leaves the remaining monthly payments due. Commitment-free (100% digital myCANAL) offers can be cancelled at any time from the client space. New remote subscriptions carry the statutory 14-day right of withdrawal (droit de retractation). Personal data and erasure rights are covered by the Canal+ data-protection policy.

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.
