You cannot cancel or close a TT account if you have registered it per the IRS regulations but you can choose to simply not file that return. The online program is free to use until you get to the point of filing or printing of the return ... to do either you must pay for the use of the program  thus  online fees, once paid, are non refundable.

You can not delete or merge accounts.

You can try to clear all of the information in your TurboTax account for this year but you will need to Contact Customer Support  to have an account deactivated for more of a resolution.

A TurboTax online account cannot be deleted.

@jschulcz   Are you on the Advantage auto renew plan?

You can sign into your Turbo Tax Advantage account and under Your Product, select to Remove Product.  Once you remove the recurring product order, the Turbo Tax Advantage subscription will be cancelled as well.

If you missed the cancelation deadline for this year's TurboTax product, simply wait until you receive your CD or download, then submit an online refund request within 60 days of receiving your product.

 

If you still got charged after you cancelled you might have another account.  First LOG OUT of whatever TurboTax account you're logged into right now. Then use this TurboTax account recovery website to get a list of user ID's for an email address.  Run the tool against any email addresses you may have used https://myturbotax.intuit.com/account-recovery

Unfortunately, you cannot delete or cancel your account. 

As long as you have not paid your TurboTax Online fee (or registered a cost-free version), you can clear any data you entered. (Fees paid through Pay With My Refund and pre-paid code also count as "paid.")

Once you've paid or registered, we're required to store copies of your return. These are the same requirements imposed on accountants, CPAs, and other professional tax preparers.

TurboTax will keep the username and password you created in case you ever want to return to the website.

I am have been unable to speak to a TurboTax adviser or customer service representative regarding the very poor online tax preparation communication (via chat only) with your advisor on April 17, 2023.  She (Anna) had to numerous times go to some other assistant to proceed completing my 2022 Federal 1040 Tax return. I never got to visually review the complete Federal return form as she so hurriedly instructed I needed to complete the payment form. Apparently Anna used all the time she had been allotted to complete the Federal return? I then completed the payment form as Anna said to be able to review and print my Federal 1040 form. She then ended our session without confirming I was able review and print my 2022 Federal Tax Return. I was unable to review or print this return on April 17, 2023. I desperately attempted call, text and email some person at TurboTax. I only got computer electronic instructions various links  that were to sign up as a new subscriber requiring establishing a new account. On April 18th I instructed my Visa credit card provider to stop payment for TurboTax services of $205.25.  Therefore, please close or CANCEL Order No. (removed)(payment authorization code: removed. I would appreciate receiving confirmation the above Order Number has been cancelled and closed.

Are you having issues trying to install TurboTax for Desktop from a download in your account?  

 

If you can provide more details, we'll try to help.  

 

Here's detailed info on How to Manage Your Intuit Account and How to View Your TurboTax Accounts.

All the downloaded programs can handle all the same tax forms so you only need to install one personal tax program. Return the second program you purchased and do not need and use the one you already have installed.

@CWDeceased No one in this user forum can cancel a TurboTax account.   We have no access to user's accounts.    TurboTax accounts cannot be cancelled.   But they can be abandoned, and nothing will happen to the account.  No one else will have access.  

 

 

Or do you mean you want to cancel an Advantage membership to stop the annual fees for the software?
