How To Cancel Your YouTubeTV Subscription

It’s no secret that YouTube TV’s subscription cost has increased over time, and it may not offer enough value for the price, especially if you don’t watch a wide range of channels.

If the channels or shows you’re interested in are not available or can be accessed through other, cheaper services, it might make sense to switch.

How Much Does YouTube TV cost Right Now?

As of 2024, YouTube TV’s base plan costs $72.99 per month. This plan includes over 100 live channels, unlimited cloud DVR storage, and access to popular networks like ESPN, CNN, and major broadcast channels.

Additional Costs:

  • 4K Plus Add-On: $9.99 per month for higher resolution and more streams.
  • Premium Channel Add-Ons: Channels like HBO Max, Showtime, and Starz are available for additional fees.
  • Sports or Entertainment Packages: Specialized bundles can also be added for extra costs.

Pricing can change over time, so it’s a good idea to check directly on YouTube TV’s website for the latest rates and offers.

How To Cancel YouTube TV Right Now

To cancel your YouTube TV subscription, follow these steps:

On a Web Browser

  1. Go to tv.youtube.com and sign in with your Google account.
  2. Click on your profile picture in the top-right corner.
  3. Select Settings from the dropdown menu.
  4. Go to Membership.
  5. Click Manage next to YouTube TV.
  6. Choose Cancel Membership and follow the on-screen prompts to complete the cancellation.

On a Mobile Device (YouTube TV App)

  1. Open the YouTube TV app and sign in.
  2. Tap on your profile picture in the top-right corner.
  3. Select Settings > Membership.
  4. Tap Manage and then Cancel Membership.
  5. Follow the prompts to finish the cancellation.

Notes:

  • If you’re in a free trial period, be sure to cancel before the trial ends to avoid being charged.
  • You can also pause your membership instead of fully canceling if you plan to resume it later.

There are plenty of alternatives like Hulu + Live TV, Sling TV, or other streaming services that might offer a better package for your viewing preferences at a lower cost.

Final Word

In some areas, YouTube TV might lack certain local channels or sports networks, which could be a dealbreaker if you rely on it for local news or live sports.

If these or similar factors resonate with you, canceling YouTube TV might be worth considering. On the other hand, if the service aligns well with your viewing habits and budget, it might still be the right choice for you.
