Step 1: Search

Step 2: Pause & Cancel
Once you have clicked on "View", you will need to pause the scheduled messages by clicking on "Pause" to the bottom right of your screen, and then confirming this selection. The system will then pause the messages where you can then choose to release (unpause) or cancel the messages completely.

Releasing a Scheduled Message
- If you select "Release" instead of "Cancel", the system will unpause the messages, and it will go out at the original scheduled date and time.
Important Information
- Once you have cancelled your scheduled messages, your credits will be returned to your account.
- Cancelled messages will still be visible in your "Sent / Queued" history, even though they have been successfully cancelled.
