What Happens After I Cancel?

So, you’ve taken the plunge and canceled your subscription – what comes next? Well, this depends on the nature of your subscription and the type of service or product you’re canceling.

In most cases, you’ll continue to have access to the service or product that you subscribed to until the end of your current subscription period. After that, the service or product will be deactivated and you won’t be able to access it anymore.

In some cases, however, you may not be charged again but may still have access to the service or product for a period of time. This is often referred to as a “grace period” and can vary depending on the individual company offering the service or product.

Finally, if there are any refunds applicable for canceling your subscription early, these will usually take up to 30 days from when you initially requested the cancelation.

Tips for Managing Subscriptions

If you’re only wanting to manage a few subscriptions, the easiest way is to use the App Store itself. To see your current subscriptions, go to Settings, then tap “iTunes & App Store”, and select “Manage Subscriptions.” You’ll be presented with a list of active services, and you can choose to cancel or change the payment plan of any subscription.

You should also keep in mind that canceling an app subscription won’t delete the app—all it does is prevent any future charges. To actually delete an app from your device, you have to go into your list of apps and remove it manually.

But if you find yourself with lots of different subscriptions coming out of your pocket each month and can’t keep track of them all, there are some tools that can help you simplify things. A popular one is SubscriptMe which can help analyze your spending habits and pinpoint what services are costing you money each month.
