Downgrading Your Plan
You can submit a request to downgrade your plan at any time by creating a case, calling our Client Services team at the appropriate number listed below, or utilizing our chat support. Downgrades always occur at the end of the current billing cycle. If you are close to the end of your billing cycle, we recommend calling to downgrade so our team can help to ensure you're charged the correct plan rate on your next billing statement.
Downgrade Eligibility
Before you downgrade your plan, you will need to check for eligibility and review the plan features you will lose.
