Youtube TV is one of the best streaming services out there: You get live TV, sports and movie channels as well as the best news and entertainment all in one package.

Now the bad news: If you’ve seen your bills lately, you probably have noticed that one of them – YouTube TV – is getting pretty high. That’s why I recently cut the cord and canceled YouTube TV. And to be honest, I’m not missing a thing.

This article will tell you how to cancel your YouTube TV and still stream your favorite TV and movies. Let’s get right into it.

First of all, YouTube TV is a pretty robust streaming service. For the money you pay every month, YouTube TV, who is owned by Google, gives you quite a bit.

How Much Does YouTube TV Cost?

YouTube TV costs $64.99 a month, which includes its base package. The price goes up if you add any extra channels.

Lately, the company had to deal with some access issues concerning Disney networks like ESPN and FX, including their live and on-demand content. Thankfully, they were able to get it straight.

Now let’s get into the main thing: How to cancel YouTube TV.

How To Cancel YouTube TV

Unlike a traditional cable company, streaming services don’t have contracts, which is a very good thing. That means you can cancel your service right then and there.

It’s an easy process to cancel YouTube TV no matter if you’re using an Android, iPhone or PC. Here are the steps:

Open the YouTube TV app on your Android device, or go to tv.youtube.comon a web browser.
Select your profile photo .
Go to Settings
Click on Your Plan> Manage
Click Cancel.
Confirm Cancellation.

The thing is YouTube TV is smart. They have an option that lets you “pause” your service for eight weeks rather than cancel. Here are your options:

Your plan will pause after your next billing date.
Family sharing will pause and members will also lose access.
We’ll save your current library recordings.
You can resume anytime. Pricing may be subject to change.

Under all that, is the cancel button. That’s what you press.

Final Thought

After you’ve canceled YouTube TV, you might think that you have no options. That’s not true at all. You can watch Netflix for less.
