How to cancel YouTube TV on desktop (or mobile web) (step-by-step).
To be sure of the best method of preventing charges, it is best to use the safest method of canceling, which is by a web browser. This trick functions regardless of your platform, be it a desktop or a mobile browser on your tablet or phone.
Before proceeding, make sure you have checked that you are logged into the right Google account. It is particularly important in case you have more than one Gmail account, or you are a family member, as only the account holder will be able to cancel the subscription.
Step 1: Open YouTube TV in the web browser.
Visit YouTube TV on Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or any other browser that is not old. Do not use the YouTube app, as the management of subscriptions is different.
In case you are asked, log in using the Google account in which YouTube TV is paid. In case you are already logged in and are not sure of which account you are making use of, then let yourself confirm by clicking your profile picture.
Step 2: In your account settings, open your account.
Click on your profile picture in the upper-right corner of the screen. A menu will be displayed with a number of choices concerning your account.
Step 3: Go to subscription
Within settings, you will find a section that is called subscription. The page displays your current plan, monthly price, the date that your next billing occurs, and any add-ons that you have.
Step 4: Select Cancel subscription.
Go to the subscription page, and select Manage at the end of your plan. You will have the option of cancelling the subscription.
In case you are not sure what to choose, keep in mind that pausing is only temporary and saves your settings more reliably, and completely canceling the subscription . The two stand to avoid new charges provided that you go through the process.
Step 5: Choose the cancellation prompts.
YouTube TV will then promptly tell you the reasons why you are leaving and allow you to choose other options, such as pausing instead. The screens are informational, and they are not cancelling your subscription on their own.
Step 6: Ensure that you have canceled.
After confirming, you will receive a message that you have to cancel your subscription at the end of your current billing period. This will not be refunding days you have not used, but it will not charge you once more.
Google should also make you confirm your email. Retention of this email until your billing period officially voids; this is just in case you will have to prove it in the future.
Confirmation of YouTube TV Cancellation Success.
Having canceled or paused the payment using the appropriate billing source is the last process and you have to ensure the payment has been made. This holds great relevance, particularly when you have ever been billed after believing that you canceled or when your subscription is billed using an intermediary.
You should first check the Confirmation Email.
Within minutes of the cancellation or the pause, YouTube TV typically sends a confirmation email to the Google account associated with your subscription. This email either says that your plan is canceled or the exact end date or resume date.
Check Your Verification in YouTube TV Accounts.
Following the email, open YouTube TV in a web browser so that you can see it best. Hit your profile picture, then hit settings and subscription.
YouTube TV can be viewed best with a web browser after receiving the email. On your profile picture, click on Settings and subscription.
Verify the End Date to Your Expectations.
The cancellation does not prevent access immediately. You are allowed to continue watching up to the date of your current billing period, and that is why the end date is more important than the cancel date.
Check Add-Ons Separately
Go down the subscription list and look through the add-ons that are offered. All of them must indicate the same end date or pause status as your base plan.
