General Information
RuneScape Notice Period & Conditions
RuneScape memberships operate on a recurring billing basis, meaning that unless you cancel before the next billing date, you will be automatically charged for another subscription cycle. The cancellation must be completed before the renewal date to avoid being billed again.
RuneScape does not typically offer prorated refunds, meaning if you cancel midway through a billing period, you will continue to have access to premium membership features until the current cycle ends.
If you subscribed through a third-party provider (such as Apple, Google Play, Steam, or PayPal), you will need to cancel directly through that platform, as Jagex does not have control over external billing systems.
What Information Does RuneScape Need?
To successfully cancel your RuneScape subscription, you may need to provide the following details:
- Jagex Account Username: The username or email associated with your account.
- Billing Details: The last four digits of the card or PayPal account used for payment.
- Subscription Type: Monthly, quarterly, or yearly membership.
- Transaction History: In case of disputed charges, a record of past payments may be required.
- Reason for Cancellation: While optional, Jagex may ask for feedback on why you are canceling your membership.
Having this information ready will help prevent any delays when requesting cancellation.
What Happens After I Cancel My RuneScape Subscription?
Once your subscription is canceled, you will continue to have access to all premium benefits until the end of your current billing period. After this, your account will revert to free-to-play status, meaning you will lose access to member-exclusive areas, quests, and skills.
Your in-game progress will be saved, but any items stored in members-only bank slots may become inaccessible unless you free up space. Additionally, some member-only skills will be locked until you resubscribe.
If you were on a promotional offer or a discounted plan, canceling might result in losing the special rate, requiring you to pay the full price if you decide to resubscribe.
Can I Also Contact RuneScape Directly?
Yes, if you have trouble canceling your membership through the online portal, you can contact RuneScape’s customer support. Here are the best ways to get assistance:
- RuneScape Support Page: Provides FAQs and self-service options.
- Email Support: Available through the Jagex customer service page.
- Live Chat (For Select Users): Some users may have access to live chat, particularly if dealing with account security issues.
- Social Media Support: RuneScape’s official Twitter account (@JagexSupport) can provide updates and guidance.
If your subscription was made through a third-party provider, you may need to contact them directly to process the cancellation.
Can I Revoke My Subscription Cancellation?
If you cancel your membership but change your mind before the end of your billing period, you can reactivate it through the account settings page.
However, if your subscription has already expired, you will need to purchase a new membership, and previous discounted rates or promotional offers may no longer be available.
How Can I Check My Current Subscription?
To verify your current subscription details:
- Log into Your Jagex Account on the RuneScape website.
- Navigate to Account Settings and click on the Billing & Membership section.
- Check Subscription Details, including renewal date, payment history, and membership type.
- Review Your Payment Method to ensure no unexpected charges occur.
If you see that your membership is still set to renew, be sure to cancel before the next billing cycle to avoid being charged.

How do I remove my credit card from RuneScape?
