Questions to consider for your cancellation survey

Use these questions as suggestions when editing your copy. Keep the ones that fit your purpose and add any details your process needs.

  • What is the main reason for cancelling?
  • Was there something you expected but did not receive?
  • Is there anything else you would like us to know?

How to use the responses

Group feedback by reason and review patterns with the team. Keep the survey separate from required cancellation steps so people can leave without being forced to explain.

How to customize and share this template

  1. Name the experience you want feedback on and ask while respondents can still recall it clearly.
  2. Keep rating scales consistent and add an open question about the reason behind the answer. Remove questions that your team cannot act on.
  3. Decide how you will review results and follow up. Test the wording with someone unfamiliar with the form before sending it to the intended audience.

Frequently asked questions

How long should a cancellation survey be?
A main-reason question and an optional comment are often enough. Additional questions should have a clear purpose and should not make cancellation harder.
Can I customize this survey template?
Yes. Choose Use this template to make your own copy in Youform. Edit the questions and colors, review the whole flow, then share a link or embed it on your website. See Youform plans for advanced features.
How many questions should a feedback form have?
Use the fewest questions that answer the decision you need to make. One clear rating and a useful follow-up can suit a single interaction. A broader review may need more questions, grouped around distinct parts of the experience.
Should feedback include a name or email address?
Collect contact details when a reply is part of the purpose, and explain that use. If you want anonymous feedback, review the form's questions and settings rather than assuming that omitting a name makes every response anonymous.
