How hard is it to cancel Red Pocket Mobile?
Red Pocket Mobile scores 98/100 (grade A) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the US, among the most clearly documented cancellation policies we've scored. Cancellation is available via online (self-serve), phone.
Red Pocket is prepaid with no early-termination fee; to close a line you first complete the number transfer (porting out), then contact customer service to close the line, because transferring the number does not auto-cancel the account and closing first risks permanent loss of the number. To port out, log in at redpocket.com/my-lines, open 'Manage Number', disable the Port Out Blocker, and select 'Transfer This Number' to generate the account number and transfer PIN (CDMA lines must call in); transfers complete within minutes to 24 hours and the line must stay active. Prepaid service is generally non-refundable, but a plan can be returned within 7 days of receipt if usage stays under 250 min, 250 texts, or 1GB; shipping is non-refundable and devices carry a 20% restocking fee.

Scope & fairness
This is the Documented-Policy tier: it measures how clearly the cancellation policy is published (cited, dated facts), not the behavioural experience of cancelling (Verified-Flow audit pending). Every company is scored on the same five dimensions with the same published weights, scores cannot be bought or removed. It is opinion grounded in disclosed facts, and not legal advice.
