How hard is it to cancel Storyblocks?

Storyblocks subscriptions can be cancelled online via the Member Dashboard (Manage My Account > Cancel My Account, with a retention pop-up to dismiss), by phone at 866.788.9225, or by emailing [email protected]. Cancellation disables auto-renewal but access continues through the end of the current billing period with no prorated refund. Refunds are not issued if content has been downloaded; if no downloads have occurred since the last payment, users may contact support to request a refund (typically 3–5 business days). No subscription pause or freeze feature is documented.

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.
