How to Cancel

Call 1.800.222.5377 and ask to cancel. Blue Ridge’s My Blue Ridge terms say that ending the electronic billing or payment service does not cancel cable or other subscription services. Customers who want to terminate cable or other subscription services need to call Blue Ridge to make arrangements.

Blue Ridge’s general terms also allow termination by written notice or by account-holder phone contact. Written notice is a terms-supported option, but the phone call is the clearest practical route because it lets you confirm the disconnect date, final billing, and equipment return instructions while a representative is on the line.

Use My Blue Ridge to review your account, bill, services, or move options before the call. Treat the phone call as the cancellation record unless Blue Ridge gives you account-specific written instructions for another path.

Have these ready before you call:

Account holder name
Service address
Account number
Phone number and email on the account
Desired disconnect date
Services you want to cancel
Current bill
List or photos of Blue Ridge-owned equipment in your home

Ask the representative to confirm:

The effective disconnect date
Whether Blue Ridge will send written confirmation
Whether your account has a specific term, promotion, rate agreement, or Smart Home Security agreement
How the final bill will be calculated
Whether any prepaid-service credit may apply
Every BRC-owned item assigned to your account
The return location, deadline, and receipt process
How autopay or the final payment will be handled
Where to send written notice if you want a paper trail after the call

Tip: Ask for the equipment list and return location while you are still on the cancellation call. Blue Ridge’s internet agreement says BRC-owned equipment must be returned immediately after termination, so the return plan should be part of the cancellation record.

Moving or Authorized User

If you are moving within Blue Ridge territory, ask about a transfer before canceling. Blue Ridge says it provides free transfer of existing services to a new address in its service area. A transfer sets up disconnection at the old address and installation at the new address. Blue Ridge also tells customers to bring existing equipment, such as cable boxes, remotes, modems, and eero routers, to the new home for technician installation.

If someone else needs to handle the cancellation, ask Blue Ridge to add that person as an authorized user before the cancellation call. Blue Ridge says authorized users can change services and disconnect services in full. Authorized users cannot sign agreements that lock in service pricing, so the account holder should handle any decision that creates or changes a term commitment.

What It Costs

Early Termination Fee

Blue Ridge’s general terms say service is month-to-month unless the customer agreed to a specific term. For standard residential internet, TV, or phone service, the public baseline is no general early termination fee unless an account-specific agreement changes that answer.

Ask Blue Ridge to check for:

A specific term agreement
A promotion or rate-lock commitment
A business service term
A Smart Home Security agreement
Any other written commitment on the account

Smart Home Security needs special attention. Blue Ridge’s Smart Home Security Pro Kit requires a three-year term agreement, while the camera-only kit is advertised as no contract required. Blue Ridge’s Smart Home Security Service Agreement lists these early termination fees for the initial three-year term:

Timing	Early Termination Fee
Within the first year	$350
After the first year but before the third year	$250
After the second year but before the initial term expires	$150

If Blue Ridge says a fee applies, ask which agreement creates it, how much remains, and whether the fee will appear on the final bill.

Billing and Credits

Blue Ridge bills monthly in advance. Its general terms say a customer may receive a credit for prepaid service days not used depending on the termination day of the month. Treat that as a possible credit, not a guaranteed refund.

Refunds are made after payment clears and posts. Blue Ridge’s terms say refunds generally go back to the original payment method, while gift card payments are not refundable.

If the final bill looks wrong, Blue Ridge’s terms require billing disputes within 30 days of the disputed bill. Pay undisputed charges by the due date while the dispute is reviewed.

Important: Ask Blue Ridge to explain the final bill before choosing the disconnect date. A prepaid-service credit may depend on the date service ends, and equipment charges are easier to avoid when the return instructions are documented before termination.

Equipment Charges

Blue Ridge’s residential high-speed internet agreement says BRC-issued or leased cable modems, wireless modems, and combined MTA equipment remain Blue Ridge property. If service terminates, that equipment must be returned immediately and undamaged to the nearest Blue Ridge office.

If equipment is not returned, is returned late, or is returned damaged, Blue Ridge can bill the current retail value of the equipment plus collection costs. The account holder remains responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged equipment until it is returned.

Equipment Return

Return all Blue Ridge-owned equipment immediately after termination to the nearest Blue Ridge office unless Blue Ridge gives you different written instructions. Blue Ridge lists Pennsylvania offices on its locations page, and its internet agreement points to the nearest BRC office as the return destination for BRC-owned internet equipment.

Ask Blue Ridge for the account-specific equipment list before disconnecting. Depending on your services, that list may include:

Cable modem
Wireless modem
Combined MTA or phone adapter
Cable boxes
Remote controls
eero or HomeFi Wi-Fi equipment
Power cords and adapters
Blue Ridge-owned Smart Home Security touchscreen or related devices, if applicable

Before returning anything, photograph each item and any visible serial number. Include power cords, remotes, adapters, and accessories Blue Ridge identifies. At the office, ask for a dated receipt that lists the returned items. Keep the receipt, photos, final bill, and cancellation notes until the account shows a zero balance.

If Blue Ridge gives you different written return instructions, follow those instructions and keep the written record. Do not assume a mail return, third-party drop-off, or non-Blue Ridge location is acceptable unless Blue Ridge confirms it for your account.

After You Cancel

Review the final bill for:

Service charges through the disconnect date
Any prepaid-service credit
Smart Home Security or other term-related charges
Equipment charges
Late fees
Collection costs
Refund method, if Blue Ridge owes a credit

Keep your cancellation notes, representative name if available, confirmation number or email, written return instructions, equipment photos, return receipt, final bill, and dispute correspondence.

If the final bill does not match what Blue Ridge confirmed, contact Blue Ridge within the 30-day billing-dispute window. Identify the disputed line item, provide your cancellation details, and include equipment-return proof if the charge involves unreturned or damaged equipment.

Common Problems

Problem	Solution
You want to cancel through My Blue Ridge	Use My Blue Ridge to review the account or start a move request, but call 1.800.222.5377 for subscription cancellation because Blue Ridge’s My Blue Ridge terms say canceling electronic billing/payment service does not cancel cable or other subscription services.
You are unsure whether written notice is enough	Blue Ridge’s general terms allow termination notice in writing or by account-holder phone contact. Use the phone call for the operational cancellation record and ask where written notice should be sent if you need a paper trail.
You may have a term agreement	Ask Blue Ridge to check for a specific term, promotion, Smart Home Security agreement, or other account-specific commitment before setting the disconnect date.
You have Smart Home Security	Ask whether the Pro Kit or another monitored-security term applies. Blue Ridge’s Smart Home Security agreement lists a three-year initial term and ETF amounts of $350, $250, or $150 depending on when the customer terminates.
You are moving within the service area	Ask about a transfer before canceling. Blue Ridge says it can transfer existing services to a new in-area address by disconnecting the old address and installing at the new address.
You need to return equipment	Ask for the complete BRC-owned equipment list and return it to the nearest BRC office immediately after termination unless Blue Ridge gives different written instructions.
An equipment charge appears	Compare the charge with your return receipt, photos, serial numbers, and the equipment list. Contact Blue Ridge quickly because the internet agreement says unreturned equipment can be billed at current retail value plus collection costs.
The final bill or credit looks wrong	Review the bill promptly, pay undisputed charges, and raise the dispute within 30 days of the disputed bill under Blue Ridge’s terms.
Someone else needs to handle the account	Ask Blue Ridge to add that person as an authorized user before cancellation. Blue Ridge says authorized users can change and fully disconnect services, but they cannot sign pricing-lock agreements.
