How to cancel your Hulu subscription?
It’s not possible to delete your account on Hulu without canceling your subscription first. Even if you manage to do it, there is a good chance you will continue to be charged for the next months. So, make sure to cancel your subscription first. It’s quite a simple process. Here is how to do it:
- Step-1: Open Hulu from your browser and log into your account. Canceling the subscription cannot be done on the app.
- Step-2: Go to the Account page.
- Step-3: Under the Your Subscription headline, you will see a section called Hold or Cancel Subscription. Choose the option Cancel Subscription from below it. Of course, you can instead choose to put your subscription on hold, but then you won’t be able to delete the account, even if you want to delete it temporarily.
- Step-4: A warning will appear asking you to consider putting the subscription on hold. Click “Continue To Cancel” to keep the process going.
- Step-5: A survey will appear asking you why you are canceling your subscription. Complete the survey. Once you’re done with that, the subscription will be canceled finally.
