My subscription is having issues renewing, can you help?
The key reason for this tends to be due to insufficient funds on the card at the time of renewal. DO NOT create a new account or subscription for this, just log into your account below and put the payment through when the necessary funds are available on your card. You can avoid this happening by adding the necessary funds to the card or use an alternative payment method. If you do the latter method, double check all the card details are correct before submitting as this is the next most common issue.
For subscribers using Revolut, you may have to approve the renewal with a 2FA (two-factor authentication) code to your phone, otherwise, the payment could fail and in turn not renew your subscription.
If you’re still having an issue, try again later that day and if it fails once more then you will need to contact your card issuer for more information.
How do I cancel my subscription?
You can cancel your subscription at any time in your Echo.ie account or by logging in here.
I want to change my current subscription option, what do I do?
It is essential that you go here to change your subscription. Do not create a new subscription, otherwise, you may have two different subscriptions running concurrently with both charging. If you’re unsure of anything, please contact our team directly.
