Cancel VriendenLoterij directly

The VriendenLoterij encourages participants to call 088 - 020 10 57 to cancel. This is a quick route, but you will have to deal with a retention agent. Alternatively, you can cancel in writing by sending a letter to Beethovenstraat 200, 1077 JZ Amsterdam.

If you prefer to avoid phone calls and paper mail, you can use the service at Opzeggen.nl. We deliver your cancellation electronically and via registered mail, often resulting in a confirmation within just a few days.

You can reach the VriendenLoterij at 088 - 020 10 57. Their customer service is available on weekdays from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM and on Saturdays from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

Playing the VriendenLoterij costs €240 per year. This is a significant amount. A single ticket costs €16 (as of December 2025) and there are 15 draws per year. While the lottery originally started with 12 monthly draws, increasing the number of draws has been a clever way for them to collect more money from automatic participants.

VriendenLoterij uses a maximum processing time of one month. Although you can cancel at any moment, this processing window means you might still participate in the next upcoming monthly or extra draw. After that, your participation stops immediately and permanently.

If you cancel via Opzeggen.nl, you won't experience any issues. Should an incidental problem occur, we take the lead. In that case, Opzeggen.nl will contact VriendenLoterij directly to ensure your subscription is terminated satisfactorily. If you use our service, you will receive a reminder after 40 days asking if the cancellation was successful. If you are still being charged after 40 days, contact VriendenLoterij and mention that you possess a legally valid proof of receipt (this certificate can be found in your Opzeggen.nl account).

Yes, the BankGiro Loterij has merged with the VriendenLoterij. As of August 21, 2016, the BankGiro Loterij brand disappeared, and all participants were transferred to the VriendenLoterij. You no longer need to search for a separate BankGiro Loterij cancellation page.

To stop a membership after a passing, it is best to call 088 - 020 1057 directly. Have the IBAN or ticket number of the deceased person ready. Written cancellation is also possible; simply mention the bank account number in your letter. When arranging the cancellation through Opzeggen.nl, it is not strictly necessary to mention it concerns a death. As long as the requested details in our form are filled in correctly, the cancellation will be processed properly. An alternative is to revoke the direct debit at your bank. Once the lottery can no longer collect the funds, the participation will stop automatically.
