TIME Magazine Customer Service, Subscriptions & Cancellations

TIME Magazine customer service assists subscribers with print and digital subscriptions, missing issues, billing questions, automatic renewals, cancellations, address changes and account-access problems. Support options differ depending on the subscriber’s location and the type of subscription.

Quick answer: Customers in the United States and Canada can call TIME customer service at 1-800-843-8463. Subscribers can also manage many account changes through TIME’s online customer-service system.

TIME Magazine Customer Service Contacts

When contacting customer care, include the subscriber’s name, account number or mailing address and a concise description of the problem. Do not publish account numbers, mailing addresses or payment information in the comments on this page.

Which TIME Support Option Should You Use?

Missing or Damaged Magazine

Contact TIME customer care by phone or email if an expected issue did not arrive or arrived damaged. Include the issue date or cover, the last issue received, the subscriber’s mailing address and the account number when available.

Before reporting a recently purchased subscription, remember that delivery of the first print issue may take several weeks. Digital access may be available while the first print issue is being processed.

Billing or Renewal Questions

Sign in to TIME My Account to review the subscription and available account-management options. Contact customer service if a charge, renewal date, subscription price or payment method does not match your records.

Have the date and amount of the charge available, but do not send a complete credit-card or bank-account number by email.

Address Changes

Subscribers can normally update their mailing address through TIME My Account. Make the change before moving when possible and allow time for the updated address to reach the magazine’s fulfillment system.

If issues continue going to the former address, contact customer care with both the old and new mailing addresses.

Digital Access or Login Problems

Use TIME’s password-reset option if you cannot sign in. Check spam, junk and promotional folders if the reset message does not arrive.

Print subscribers can link their print subscription to a TIME digital account. TIME says this requires the subscriber ID shown on the magazine’s mailing label. The subscriber ID may also be located through My Account using the subscription mailing address.

How to Cancel a TIME Magazine Subscription

TIME’s current terms provide three primary cancellation methods:

  1. Online: Sign in through the applicable TIME subscription-management page.
  2. By email: Send a message to customerservice@time.com. Put CANCEL in the subject line and include the account number and the subscription being canceled.
  3. By phone: Call 1-800-843-8463 and request cancellation.

Ask for confirmation that both the subscription and automatic renewal have been canceled. Save the confirmation email, case number or the date and time of the call.

Refund eligibility depends on the terms of the offer accepted when the subscription was purchased. TIME states that when refunds are available for print subscriptions, the refund may cover unserved issues that have not already been processed for fulfillment.

TIME Automatic-Renewal Questions

Canceling automatic renewal prevents future renewal charges but may not immediately end access for a subscription period that has already been paid for. Review the confirmation carefully to determine whether the subscription remains active through the end of the current term.

If a renewal charge has already been processed, contact TIME promptly with the charge date, amount, account number and cancellation request. Do not assume that removing a payment method by itself cancels the subscription.

Linking a Print Subscription to a TIME Digital Account

TIME allows print subscribers to connect their magazine subscription to a digital account. You will generally need:

  • The subscriber ID from the magazine’s mailing label
  • The name and mailing address used for the subscription
  • An active TIME digital account
  • The email address associated with the account

If the subscription was previously linked but no longer appears, verify that the print subscription remains active. An expired subscription may no longer appear as linked to the digital account.

International TIME Subscription Support

TIME provides different customer-care routes based on the subscriber’s region:

International subscribers should include their country, subscriber number, mailing address and the email address associated with the subscription. Delivery times, digital-access systems and cancellation procedures may differ by location.

Common TIME Magazine Customer Service Problems

Issues reported by magazine subscribers may include:

  • A missing, late or damaged print issue
  • Unexpected automatic-renewal charges

How to Escalate a TIME Magazine Complaint

Before contacting TIME, assemble the information needed to identify the subscription and document the problem:

  • Subscriber name and account number
  • Mailing and email addresses associated with the account
  • Order or renewal confirmation
  • Charge date and amount
  • Missing issue dates or cover descriptions
  • Previous customer-service case numbers
  • Dates of earlier calls or emails
  • The resolution you are requesting

Start with TIME My Account or the Global Help Center. If the account cannot be corrected online, contact customer care by email or phone. Keep the request brief and specific, and retain copies of every confirmation or response.
