Pausing or Cancelling Your Plan

Flexibility When You Need It

Written by Ciara Bellisio

Life changes — deployments, time at sea, or simply moving on. CyberTel makes it easy to pause or cancel your plan with no fees, no penalties, and your number always protected.


Can I Pause My Plan?

Pausing is available on two plans:

🪖 Forces Plan — Pause on Deployment
Going on official deployment? We'll freeze your plan instantly at no cost. Your number stays reserved, your loyalty discount is preserved, and you can reactivate the moment you're back.

⚓ Sail Plan — Free Offshore Pause Promise
Heading out to sea for months? Don't pay for 5G you can't use. Freeze your Sail plan at zero cost for as long as you need. Your number stays safe, your loyalty discount remains locked in, and your Global eSIM is instantly ready the moment you reach port.

To activate a pause on either plan, just contact our team — we'll take care of everything instantly.


How to Cancel Your Plan

Any CyberTel plan can be cancelled at any time with no fees or penalties. Just contact our team via live chat, WhatsApp, or email and we'll process your cancellation straight away.

Once cancelled:

  • Your plan stays active until the end of your current 30-day billing period

  • No further payments are taken after cancellation

  • You'll receive a confirmation email with your final billing summary


Keeping Your Number After Cancellation

If you cancel but want to keep your number and take it to another network:

  1. Text PAC to 65075 to receive your porting code

  2. Provide it to your new network

  3. Your CyberTel plan will end automatically when your number transfers


What Happens to Your Payments

  • When paused — billing stops completely until you reactivate

  • When cancelled — your final payment covers the remaining service days, no further charges after that

  • Loyalty discounts — preserved in full whether you pause or cancel and return
