How much notice do I need to give to cancel my Vodafone Kabel contract?

The standard notice period is 3 months to the end of the current contract term. Most contracts have a 24-month minimum term. If you miss the cancellation window, the contract automatically extends by 12 months. After the initial term, you can cancel with 1 month's notice at any time under the updated German telecoms law (TKG 2021).

Can I still use my internet and TV after submitting the cancellation?

Yes. Service continues normally until the confirmed contract end date. You will not be disconnected early unless you explicitly request immediate termination (außerordentliche Kündigung) for a valid reason such as a price increase or relocation.

Will I receive a refund for any unused period?

If you cancel on the last valid date of the contract period, no refund is owed as you are billed through the end of the term. If Vodafone raises prices during your contract, you have a special right to cancel (Sonderkündigungsrecht) without penalty. Early termination without a valid reason does not entitle you to a refund of remaining months.

Do I need to return the router and equipment?

Yes. All leased devices — including the cable router/modem, TV receiver, and smartcard — must be returned within 14 days of the contract end date. Vodafone sends a prepaid DHL return label with the cancellation confirmation. If you miss the deadline, a device fee is charged, but returning within 4 weeks will still get you a refund of that fee.

Can I cancel early if I am moving to an area not served by Vodafone Kabel?

Yes. If Vodafone cannot provide service at your new address, you have a right to extraordinary cancellation (außerordentliche Kündigung) without paying for the remaining contract term. You will need to provide proof of your new address and confirm Vodafone does not serve it.

How can I confirm my cancellation was received?

You should receive an email confirmation within 1–2 business days. If you do not receive it, follow up in writing (email or letter with tracking). It is strongly recommended to send a cancellation letter by registered post (Einschreiben) as a backup, especially if you are near a deadline, as this provides legally binding proof of the cancellation date.

Log in to MeinKabel portal

Go to kabel.vodafone.de and click 'Anmelden' (Log in) in the top right corner. Enter your email address and password for your MeinKabel account. If you have forgotten your login credentials, use the 'Passwort vergessen?' (Forgot password?) link.

Navigate to the cancellation page

Once logged in, go directly to the cancellation section at kabel.vodafone.de/hilfe_und_service/kuendigung, or click on 'Hilfe & Service' in the main navigation and then select 'Kündigung'.

Select the service to cancel

Choose the product you want to cancel from your active contracts — options include 'TV, Internet & Telefon' (all-in-one cable bundle) or individual components. The direct sub-page for TV/Internet/Phone is kabel.vodafone.de/hilfe_und_service/kuendigung/tv_internet_und_telefon.

Fill out and submit the cancellation form

Complete the online cancellation form with your full name, customer number (Kundennummer), contract number (Vertragsnummer), and desired cancellation date. You can request termination at the earliest possible date ('zum nächstmöglichen Termin') or at a specific end-of-contract date. Click 'Kündigung absenden' (Submit cancellation) to submit.

Decline retention offers

After submitting, Vodafone typically presents a retention screen offering a discounted tariff or additional features to keep you. Click 'Nein, danke' or 'Trotzdem kündigen' (Cancel anyway) to proceed with the cancellation without accepting any counter-offer. Vodafone may also trigger a callback attempt — you are not obligated to accept any offer.

Save the cancellation confirmation

After successfully submitting, you will receive a written cancellation confirmation (Kündigungsbestätigung) by email with your exact contract end date. Save or print this document as proof of cancellation. If you do not receive confirmation within 1–2 business days, follow up in writing.

Return leased equipment

After the contract ends, return all leased equipment (router/cable modem, TV box, smartcard) within 14 days using the prepaid DHL return label included with your cancellation confirmation. Failure to return equipment within 4 weeks will result in a device charge, though refunds are possible if returned within the 4-week window.
