How hard is it to cancel TPG?
TPG scores 52/100 (grade D) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the AU — a poorly documented cancellation policy. Cancellation is available via phone.
To cancel, customers must phone TPG on 13 14 23 (mobile/phone services: 1300 993 019); there is no online self-serve cancellation option. A minimum 30 days written notice is required, and customers are billed through the full notice period with no pro-rata refund of the current billing cycle. Cancelling before the end of a fixed-term contract triggers an early termination charge of 50% of remaining monthly fees (up to a maximum of $350), plus a $200 modem fee if a modem was supplied (waivable by returning the modem within 21 days in good working order). After closure, customers lose access to My Account and TPG voicemail immediately.

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.
