How to Cancel Your SlidesAI Subscription (2026 Guide)

Why Are People Canceling SlidesAI?

SlidesAI (slides.ai) has a 2.2 out of 5 rating on Trustpilot, with 88% of reviews being 1-star. Users describe the cancellation process as deliberately obstructive, with multiple reviewers using the word "scam."

One user described finding a fake cancel button:

"Dark pattern UX: fake clickable button with hidden JavaScript; no real cancellation mechanism"

Another reported charges continuing after cancellation:

"Continued card charges after subscription cancellation; unresponsive customer support"

Here's how to actually cancel, plus what to do if the normal methods don't work.

How to Cancel SlidesAI

Method 1: Through the Google Slides Extension

SlidesAI works as a Google Slides add-on, so the cancellation is inside the extension:

1. Open Google Slides and create a new blank presentation (go to slides.new)
2. Click the Extensions menu at the top
3. Click SlidesAI > Generate Slides
4. In the left sidebar, click Your Account
5. Scroll to the bottom and find the Cancel Subscription link
6. Click it and confirm

Warning: Multiple users report that this cancel link is sometimes broken or unresponsive. If it doesn't work, move to Method 2.

Method 2: Email Support

Compose an email to support@slidesai.io with the following:

• Subject: "Cancel My Subscription Immediately"
• Your account email address
• Clear statement: "I am requesting immediate cancellation of my SlidesAI subscription and confirmation that no further charges will be made."
• Request a confirmation reply

Keep a copy of this email. If SlidesAI charges you after this date, you have documentation for a dispute.

Method 3: Live Chat

SlidesAI has a live chat widget on their website (bottom-right corner). Use it to request cancellation, but be aware that response times are inconsistent.

Method 4: Block the Charges (Last Resort)

If none of the above methods work or SlidesAI continues to charge you:

1. Remove payment method: Log in to the payment platform SlidesAI uses (likely Stripe) and remove your card
2. Contact your bank: Ask your bank to block future charges from SlidesAI
3. Request a new card number: This prevents any further charges on the old card

How to Request a SlidesAI Refund

SlidesAI's refund policy is not clearly documented on their website, which is itself a red flag. To request a refund:

1. Email support@slidesai.io with "Refund Request" as the subject
2. Include your account email and the charge amount/date
3. Explain why you're requesting a refund

If SlidesAI doesn't respond within 7 days, proceed with a credit card dispute through your bank.

What If You Were Charged Without Authorization?

Several Trustpilot reviewers report being charged without clear consent:

"Charged 90 euros with no notice"

If this happened to you:

1. Screenshot the charge from your bank statement
2. Email SlidesAI requesting an immediate refund (create a paper trail)
3. File a credit card dispute if no response within 48 hours
4. Report to consumer protection agencies in your country

What Happens After Canceling?

• The Google Slides extension may remain installed but premium features will be locked
• Your existing presentations in Google Slides are unaffected (they're Google Slides files, not SlidesAI files)
• AI generation credits will stop working after your billing period ends

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I just uninstall the SlidesAI extension to cancel?

No. Uninstalling the Google Slides extension does not cancel your subscription. You must cancel through your account settings or by contacting support. Uninstalling only removes the extension from Google Slides.

Will SlidesAI delete my Google Slides presentations?

No. Your presentations live in your Google Drive account, not in SlidesAI. They are completely unaffected by canceling SlidesAI.

Is SlidesAI a scam?

While SlidesAI is a real product, its Trustpilot reviews include serious allegations of deliberately obstructive cancellation processes and unauthorized charges. Multiple reviewers have used the word "scam" or "fraud" to describe their experience.

How do I know if my SlidesAI cancellation went through?

Check for a confirmation email. If you don't receive one, monitor your bank statement around your next billing date. If you're charged again after canceling, dispute the charge with your bank immediately.
