So, you signed up for OCS. Maybe it was to catch the latest season of House of the Dragon before anyone else in your friend group, or you dove into their film library. Launched in 2008, OCS (Orange Cinéma Séries) is a French streaming service that’s been the go-to for HBO content in France for years. But now the bill is hitting, and you're ready to call it quits. With subscriptions ranging from about $12 to $14, you can save up to $168 a year by canceling. This guide covers how to cancel on your desktop, iOS, or Android device. Let's get this done so you can stop worrying about that recurring charge.
How to Cancel OCS on iPhone (iOS)
If you subscribed to OCS through the App Store, you have to cancel it through Apple, not the OCS app itself. It's a bit confusing, but that's how Apple handles all third-party app subscriptions.
1 Open the Settings App
Find and tap the gray gear icon on your iPhone's home screen to open Settings.
2 Tap Your Apple ID
Your name and profile picture are at the very top of the Settings menu. Tap on it to access your Apple ID, iCloud, and media settings.
3 Select 'Subscriptions'
On the Apple ID screen, tap on the Subscriptions option. You'll see a list of all your active and expired subscriptions linked to your Apple account.
4 Find and Tap OCS
Scroll through the list until you find the OCS subscription. Tap on it to open the management screen for that specific service.
5 Cancel the Subscription
At the bottom of the screen, you'll see a red 'Cancel Subscription' button. Tap it and confirm your choice. Your subscription will remain active until the end of the current billing period.
How to Cancel OCS on Android
Canceling on Android is managed through the Google Play Store if that's where you started the subscription. It's a pretty straightforward process for most apps.
1 Open the Google Play Store
Launch the Google Play Store app on your Android device. It's the app you use to download new apps and games.
2 Access Your Profile
Tap on your profile icon, which is usually in the top-right corner of the screen.
3 Go to 'Payments & subscriptions'
A menu will pop up. Select 'Payments & subscriptions' from the list of options.
4 Select 'Subscriptions'
On the next screen, tap on 'Subscriptions'. This will show you all the services you're currently paying for through your Google account.
5 Find OCS and Cancel
Locate OCS in your list of active subscriptions and tap on it. Follow the on-screen instructions to cancel your subscription. You'll need to confirm your decision.
How to Cancel OCS on Desktop or Laptop
This method works if you signed up directly on the OCS website. It's often the most direct way to cancel, as you're dealing with the company itself, not a third-party like Apple or Google.
1 Visit the OCS Website
Open your preferred web browser (like Chrome, Firefox, or Safari) and navigate to the official OCS website.
2 Log In to Your Account
Enter your email and password to log in. If you've forgotten your password, now is the time to use the 'Forgot Password' link.
3 Navigate to Account Settings
Once logged in, look for your profile icon or name, usually in the top-right corner. Click on it and find a link for 'Account', 'My Account', or 'Settings'.
4 Find the Subscription Section
Inside your account settings, look for a tab or section labeled 'Subscription' or 'Billing'. This is where your plan details and payment information are stored. Honestly, I had to click through a couple of menus to find this, they don't always make it obvious.
5 Cancel Your Subscription
You should see an option to 'Cancel Subscription' or 'Manage Subscription'. Click it and follow the final confirmation steps. They might offer you a discount to stay, so be prepared to click 'cancel' more than once.
Cancel OCS by Contacting Support
If you can't cancel your subscription through any of the methods above, your last resort is to contact OCS customer support directly.
- Contact Form: Navigate to the 'Help' or 'Contact Us' section on the OCS website.
- Required Information: Be sure to provide your full name, the email address associated with your account, and a clear message stating your intent to cancel.
This is usually the slowest method, so only use it if you're completely stuck. Expect a response time of 1-3 business days.
Having Trouble Cancelling Your OCS Subscription?
It can be frustrating when cancellation doesn't work as expected. Here are a few common issues and how to solve them:
- Third-Party Billing: If you can't find a cancel option on the OCS website, you probably subscribed through a third party like Apple, Google Play, Amazon, or your TV provider. You must cancel through that specific service.
- Try a Different Device: Sometimes, the cancellation link is buggy on mobile browsers. Try logging in from a desktop or laptop computer.
- Clear Your Browser Cache: Old data stored in your browser can cause issues. Clear your cache and cookies, or try using an incognito/private browsing window to log in and cancel.
- Contact Support Directly: When all else fails, reach out to their customer support team. They can manually cancel the subscription for you if there's a technical glitch.
