Reasons Not To Cancel
Before you proceed to the cancellation process, please let us introduce
some reasons not to cancel.
Moving within Japan?
We can offer you mobile and fixed line broadband connection throughout Japan. If you haven't yet looked at our Area Check page for availability to your new home, please do so, or contact us and have us check for you.
Switching to a different broadband service?
We think we can offer you broadband at a very competitive price to the service you are moving to. If you like, contact us about the service you are considering and we'll let you know what competitive services we offer.
Want cheaper Internet?
We think our services charges are reasonable. You may like to contact us to see if there is a cheaper way for you to use our service.
Tired of getting spam mail?
Have you tried our free Neo-SpamBlock service? You may like to contact us to see if we can also suggest other ways to reduce the amount of spam mail you are receiving.

If you do not recieve an e-mail cancellation confirmation within a few working days, it means we didn't get your cancellation request - so send your request again!

"Individual members are required to notify the Company of intent to cancel during the calendar month prior to the final month of membership, using one of the methods of notification specified by the Company. Cancellation becomes effective after the final day of the final month of membership."
For example, if we receive your request for cancellation during the month
