Your cancellation rights in Greece

As an EU/EEA market, Greece guarantees a 14-day right of withdrawal (cooling-off) on most subscriptions bought online at a distance — cancel within two weeks of signing up and you are entitled to a refund. Providers must clearly state contract duration, renewal terms and notice periods before you commit, and since 2023 EU rules require that any subscription you can take out online must also be cancellable online, as easily as you signed up. The practical challenge in Greece is rarely your legal right to cancel — it is catching the renewal or notice-period deadline before the next charge.

Refunds when you cancel in Greece

Within the 14-day cooling-off period you can cancel most online subscriptions in Greece for a full or pro-rata refund. After that window, refunds depend on the provider's terms and the timing of your cancellation — cancelling before the next billing date is the most reliable way to avoid an unwanted charge.
