How to confirm it worked

You're done when:

  • You finished the cancel prompts on paramountplus.com/account, or the partner (Apple, Google, Amazon, Roku) confirms the cancel.
  • You still have access only until the end of the paid (or trial) period.

Source: Paramount+ Help.

Common problems

  • No Cancel Subscription on the account page. A partner bills you - cancel with Apple, Google Play, Amazon or Roku.
  • You only deleted the app. That does not cancel store billing.
  • You expected a refund for the rest of the month. Help says you are not refunded for fees already paid; access runs to the end of the period.
  • Promotional multi-month offer. Help notes that if a promo covered more than one billing period, cancelling can end access at the end of the current billing period, not at the end of the whole promo.

Essential vs Premium

Premium adds SHOWTIME originals, broader live CBS/sports, downloads and higher video quality on select titles (see site footnotes). If you only need the ad-supported library and limited sports, Essential is the lower monthly price on Paramount+'s site.

Paramount+ or Peacock this month?

If you're keeping only one budget streamer, decide with a 30-day list:

  1. Write the shows and sports you'll watch this month.
  2. Keep Paramount+ if most are CBS/Paramount titles; keep Peacock if most are NBC/Peacock titles.
  3. If neither list is long, cancel both and rejoin for the next premiere.
