    Welcome to the Community, MW07! 

     

    Can you clarify what’s your current plan, as shown here?

     

    If you’re on a personal subscription (Plus/Professional/Family/Essentials), and not on a Business team, I’m afraid it’s not possible to renew earlier than your set renewal date. 

     

    Hope this helps a bit.

    Thanks Nancy.
    Current plan is the Family membership. Based on your feedback, it seems that no changes to the renewal date can be made.
    I read somewhere that you can cancel your subscription and then join up again, but I would be concerned about losing data so this is not ideal.
    Many thanks, Mark

      Hey Mark! What you read is true indeed and you could do this as a workaround. 

       

      You can check this Help Center article for more details on what would happen exactly in that scenario.
