Unable to cancel AppleCare+ for MacBook Air

I'm about to sell my MacBook Air. My Apple Care+ runs until July 2026, so I logged into my account and tried to cancel it but I get a message that Apple can't confirm that I manage my Apple Care+ contract. I've never had issues in the past when selling a device and cancelling Apple care. Any idea what the problem is?

You'll need to take this issue up with Apple Support.

Rather than cancel the plan, though, you might want to consider transferring it to the new owner. That's often a big incentive for someone to want to buy your Mac.

Whether the problem preventing you from cancelling the plan would also prevent you from transferring it I don't know. You'll want to talk with Apple Support in either case.


Regards.
