Cancelling during your 14 day 'cooling off' period
Your Tesco Mobile phone or SIM card includes a cooling off period of 14 working days from when you receive it. If you change your mind within this time, you can return it to us ‘as sold’ for a refund or an exchange.
No matter how you bought your contract and phone with us, if you wish to cancel your contract and return your phone to us within the 14 working days ‘cooling off period’, then you can complete cancellation request.
If you do not wish to continue with this online form, then you can cancel through a couple of different ways. If you bought your contract and phone either online or over the phone then you can also call our Customer Care team on 0345 301 4455 to cancel. If you bought in store, then please take it back to your nearest Tesco Mobile Phone Shop.
For more information, see our FAQs below.
