Before you cancel
Check who bills you
If you subscribed in an iPhone or Android app, or pay through PayPal, cancel where you are billed: Apple, Google Play or PayPal.
Cancel before the renewal date

No cancel button?
If a service only cancels through its support team, send a written request with the cancellation email template.
Still charged after you cancel?
