Putting Backblaze on the Backburner—Cancel Backblaze in a Few Minutes

Backblaze is a low-cost data storage provider that offers cloud storage and computer backups. It has four data centers, three of which are in the U.S. It is a direct competitor to services like Microsoft’s Azure and Amazon’s S3.

While it is an affordable option, the 30-day deletion policy and slow restoration feature drive away many users.

Cancel BackBlaze On Your Own

Canceling Backblaze should be simple enough. There are three methods you can use to cancel:

  • Deleting your Backblaze backup
  • Sending an email
  • Deleting your account

Cancel by Deleting Your Backblaze Backup

To delete your backup, you have to:

  1. Log in to your account
  2. Go to Preferences
  3. Find the backup you want to delete
  4. Next to it, press Delete Backup and confirm
  5. Go to Overview
  6. Select Delete next to the unused license

This will cancel the online backup service. If you’ve registered multiple backups, you have to delete all of them to get rid of your subscription.

Cancel by Sending an Email

If you want to cancel by email, simply send a cancelation request to helpme@backblaze.com. Make sure to include relevant contact information that will let the service identify you.

You can also choose to delete your account directly. Deleting it will make it impossible to access any data stored in the account, but it will cancel the subscription. To delete a Backblaze account, follow these steps:

  1. Sign in to your account
  2. Go to My Settings
