How hard is it to cancel Claro Brasil?
Claro Brasil scores 53/100 (grade D) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the BR — a poorly documented cancellation policy. Cancellation is available via phone, online (self-serve), in-app, in person.
Claro Brasil customers can cancel by phone (1052 for mobile, 10621 for residential), through the Minha Claro online portal or app, or in person at a Claro store. Mobile and fixed-line cancellations take effect immediately after the request is processed, while broadband and TV services are interrupted within 48 business hours; the mobile number is held for up to 180 days. Cancelling before the end of the fidelity/loyalty period incurs a proportional early-termination fee per contract clause 23; residential equipment not returned to technicians may trigger a fine of approximately R$1,800. Former customers who were overcharged may request reimbursement through a dedicated ex-customer refund portal, but routine prorated refunds for unused billing periods are not disclosed.

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.
