Who this service helps
Open to the public for research; a cancellation right, method, refund, and deadline depend on the transaction, contract, seller, payment method, notice, timing, and governing law.
Where this service is available

A service area describes where help is offered or who may be served. It is not necessarily the organization’s physical location.
Cost / fees
The online guide is free to use; certified mail, return shipping, restocking, records, court, and legal-service costs may apply depending on the contract and law.
About this service
The guide explains that a general right to cancel merely because a buyer changes their mind is uncommon and links laws for specific transactions such as certain off-premises sales, installment contracts, service agreements, health spas, timeshares, and other regulated purchases.
