This sounds almost as hard as changing your email address on your Cursor account. I don't wish that experience on anyone. Anthropic is almost as bad, but at least they can be arsed to get back to you eventually.

For the uninitiated, both of them require you to make a new account, because apparently billion dollar corporations think a system that uses your email address as an immutable foreign key constraint is just fine.

Cursor won't let you bill out the outstanding API amount until the end of your subscription period, so you can cancel the account but it sits there able to be logged into and reactivated until your billing completes at the end of the billing interval. Getting a response to any sort of attempts to sort this out is pretty much yelling into the void. Really, your choice is to cancel the card if you get your email hacked.

At least Anthropic gets back to you and shuts it down manually, and I was even refunded my months subscription fees even though I didn't ask for it. But still a stupid, stupid way to change an email address.
