How hard is it to cancel Google Fiber?
Google Fiber scores 98/100 (grade A) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the US — among the most clearly documented cancellation policies we've scored. Cancellation is available via phone, live chat, postal mail.
Google Fiber residential internet is month-to-month with no contract and no early-termination or cancellation fee. Cancellation is not self-service online: the official 'Cancel GFiber Service' page states you must contact support directly, available by phone (1-866-777-7550), chat, or email; service stays active until the cancellation date you select. Once disconnected, a credit for the remaining portion of the current billing cycle is applied toward any remaining balance. Provided equipment (Network Box/mesh devices, excluding the GFiber/Fiber Jack and inside wiring) must be returned within 60 days or Replacement Fees apply.

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.
