Quick answer

Cancel in your JetBrains Account: open the subscription, click Cancel subscription and confirm. You keep access until the billing period ends; cancelling does not itself refund you.

Most likely fix: Cancel a personal subscription

  4. 4. Request a refund if eligible

    1. Cancelling does not trigger a refund; contact JetBrains support, requests are reviewed individually. AI subscriptions are listed as non-refundable. EU consumers have a 14-day withdrawal right for electronic purchases per JetBrains' EU commitment
