Cooling-off period (14 days)

If you entered the contract online or off-premises, you have a 14 day cooling-off period under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013. To exercise this right, notify [email protected] or send a recorded postal cancellation within 14 days from the date the contract was formed. For digital subscriptions where download or streaming began with your express consent, digital content exceptions may apply; include the date streaming or download started when you notify support. Applicable law: Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013.

Price increase

If Grok increases the price during your subscription, check the contract terms for any unilateral change clause. UK regulators such as the Competition and Markets Authority consider unexpected auto-renewal or unfair increases as potentially unfair practices. Save the notice and send a cancellation if you do not accept the increase. Required proof: the price change notice from Grok and your account subscription statement. Applicable guidance: CMA consumer unfair practices oversight; Consumer Rights Act 2015 for unfair terms.

Moving abroad

Moving address alone is not a guaranteed cancellation ground unless the service cannot be provided in the new country. Provide proof of new address (utility bill or official document) and request cancellation or plan adjustment from [email protected]. Required proof: proof of new residence and account identity. Applicable law: Consumer Rights Act 2015 where services fail to meet the contract.

Death of subscriber

In the event of subscriber death, contact [email protected] and provide a copy of the death certificate and proof of executor authority. Required proof: death certificate and executor identification. Applicable law: contract termination norms under general contract law and Consumer Rights Act 2015.

Legitimate ground and service failure

If Grok fails to provide services with reasonable care and skill, you may terminate under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Required proof: examples of failures, screenshots, timestamps, and correspondence with support requesting remedy. Applicable law: Consumer Rights Act 2015.

End of commitment or cancel anytime clauses

If your plan included a minimum commitment period, that term should be published in your subscription confirmation. If the minimum commitment is not stated, it cannot be enforced against a consumer. Required proof: original subscription confirmation or receipt. Applicable law: Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 and Consumer Rights Act 2015.

Before cancelling: negotiate

Research does not report specific retention offers published by Grok. When contacting support, request one of these options in writing: downgrade to a lower tier (for example SuperGrok to SuperGrok Lite), temporary pause of subscription, promotional credit, or reduced-rate trial period. Email [email protected] and keep the reply. If the agent refuses, ask for escalation to billing team and record dates and agent names.

What cancelling saves you - yearly calculations

Use these monthly prices to compute annual savings if you cancel and move to Free:

• SuperGrok Lite: £10.00 x 12 = £120.00 per year saved.
• SuperGrok: £30.00 x 12 = £360.00 per year saved (note SuperGrok annual price also offered at £300.00).
• SuperGrok Plus: £100.00 x 12 = £1,200.00 per year saved.
• SuperGrok Heavy: £300.00 x 12 = £3,600.00 per year saved.

Cheapest real alternative from listed competitors: Other Me at £99 per month. Annual cost for Other Me: £99 x 12 = £1,188.00 per year. If you hold SuperGrok at £30 per month, moving to Free saves £360 per year; moving to Other Me would increase cost to £1,188 per year. If you use SuperGrok Plus at £100 per month, switching to Other Me reduces cost by £12 per year (SuperGrok Plus yearly £1,200.00 vs Other Me yearly £1,188.00).

Key UK consumer laws

Relevant laws include the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013. The new Subscription Contracts Act 2024 also strengthens cooling-off and renewal protections. Regulation text for cooling-off is available via UK legislation resources: Cooling-off rights - Legislation.

What you can demand and how to escalate

If Grok does not honor cancellation rights or fails in service quality, first complain to the trader via [email protected] and keep all evidence. If unresolved, contact Citizens Advice for guidance and the Competition and Markets Authority for unfair subscription terms. For qualifying card transactions you can raise Section 75 or a chargeback with your card issuer. If you purchased via Apple or Google Play, escalate refunds via the store provider.

Access and final billing

After cancellation, check your account for the end date of access. Payments already made are non-refundable except where required by law; exceptions exist for cancellations within statutory cooling-off periods.

Data and reactivation

Export or save any content you need before access ends. If you later re-subscribe, sign in and choose a plan; your previous settings may not be preserved. Keep copies of confirmation emails, screenshots and Recorded Delivery receipts for proof of cancellation.

Refund requests

For web or Google Play purchases, submit refund requests using xAI refund processes after signing in. For Apple purchases request refunds through Apple. For withdrawals within 14 days under EU/UK rules xAI must repay you within 14 days of receipt of your notice. European right of withdrawal rules and repayment timing are described in xAI terms and by statute.
