Hello,

I’m wondering what is the best and fastest way to get RingEX licenses removed from our company account? I want to reduce the quantity of licenses billed to us.

Usually, I’m just calling RingCentral support to ask them to do this (even though it’s not always convinient, because sometimes they are expiriencing high volumes of calls), but the last time I called they told me that it can only be done through our account manager and I was told that our manager will reach to me within 24 hours (she didn’t). I was surprised because I did not expect that such a basic action could not be performed without the approval of the account manager. The problem is that I can’t reach out to my account manager since 7/11, so I’m a bit confused now.

@admin-47  Sorry to hear that you haven’t heard back - I looked into it and it appears your internal rep is on vacation and maybe the reason you’ve not heard back from her. 

Still, I would recommend calling (888) 898-4591 and speaking with one of our customer success specialists. 
They may be able to address your request faster than your internal rep. 

Let me know if can help to escalate if you run into any snags!

Hi Becky,

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll keep this in mind for the future, but I’m upset that even though I asked RC agents to take actions before the billing date (which was on 7/13), they just reffered to our account manager.

As of now, I’ll try to call RC support one more time using the phone number you provided. I have also created a case for RC billing dep and told them about it. Hopefully they will recalculate our last invoice and remove unused licenses


Sounds good! I get your frustration, @admin-47

I was able to speak with my account manager and was very shocked to learn that since RC has changed its policy, unused licenses can only be completely removed from an account after 30 days of written request. if I needed to delete digital lines (RingEx licenses), I always called the RC support line and they fulfilled my request instantly, so this change really surprised me.

Please advise Becky, is there any article where I can read more about this RC policy change?

Great question - but one I will have to dig into. 
Give me some time!

Thank you so much Becky, I’ll be waiting for your response! I also hope that this topic will be useful for all RingCentral users, so it wouldn’t be an unpleasant surprise for them as it was for me.


I spoke with the account manager again and learned that this 30-day notice requirement applies to companies that have a customer success manager.

@BeckyH can you please tell me more about that? My goal is to bring back the ability to remove licenses at any time and I would appreciate any advice you have that will help me achieve this.
