Cancel an internet purchase: simple and free withdrawal letter template

Have you purchased an item on the internet or have subscribed to a service, and you wish to reconsider your commitment? 

In this article, we offer you a standard letter for your right of withdrawal following a distance purchase.

What is my right of withdrawal? 

The law provides for a withdrawal period of 14 days for distance sales with thearticle L 221-18 of the consumer code. During this 14-day period, you can return to your subscription to a service or your purchase. How ? By informing the seller, or the professional of your decision to withdraw within the period provided for by law. 

What means can I use my right of withdrawal? 

To exercise your right to withdraw, you can use the form made available to you on the seller's website. But beware of this possibility: you must obtain an acknowledgment of receipt of your request, so that it is valid and effective. In addition, during your online request, it is difficult to justify the date, unlike a letter addressed to the company where the postmark is authentic. 

The other way to use your right of withdrawal is to make a request by registered mail, with acknowledgment of receipt. The professional will therefore be well informed of your wish to reconsider your subscription. 

Simple and free standard letter of withdrawal 

No unpleasant surprises, with a letter with acknowledgment of receipt! You, the buyer, have the right to cancel an online sale in this way.
