Cancelling Disney Plus
Disney Plus has an extensive library but accessing it is not free. The recurring monthly cost of a subscription adds up over time. In addition, Disney Plus is limited to content that Disney has streaming rights for. This may not include your favourite films or television series. This frustration with finding things to watch can sometimes lead people to cancel their Disney Plus subscription.
Follow the instructions set out below to cancel your Disney Plus subscription. Please note you have to cancel your subscription using the same platform you signed up with. In other words:
- If you have been paying for Disney Plus through iTunes, you must cancel your Disney Plus subscription through iTunes.
- If you have been paying through Google Play, you must cancel your Disney Plus subscription through Google play.
- If you have been paying for Disney Plus directly, then you can use the Disney Plus website to cancel your subscription.
For example, even if you always watched Disney Plus using the iOS or Android app, if you subscribed directly on the Disney website, then use the website to cancel.
