How to Cancel Paramount Plus in 2022: Ending Your Live TV Streaming Subscription
Paramount Plus has some great shows and is an excellent service for someone who wants next-day CBS primetime shows without an antenna. However, if you’re already subscribed and wish to discontinue, this guide will show you how to cancel Paramount Plus.
Paramount Plus, previously known as CBS All Access, is a streaming service that offers great content. While it’s not available in all countries, there’s still a way to watch Paramount Plus no matter where you are. However, if you’re not satisfied with Paramount+, you can cancel your subscription at any time. In this guide, we explain how to cancel Paramount Plus.
Key Takeaways:
- Paramount Plus is a great service, but if it doesn’t have the content you like, you can cancel your subscription within a few minutes.
- The method of cancelation, however, depends on the device you used for signing up.
- If you’re using a free trial and wish to discontinue your subscription, make sure you cancel the subscription before the free trial expires to avoid charges on your card or account.
Before we discuss the cancelation process, it’s important to understand that the appropriate way to cancel your subscription depends on how you signed up. For instance, if you signed up for Paramount+ from Amazon Prime Video Channels, you’ll only be able to cancel it from the Amazon website.
