Maybe you binged The Bear and now you are just stressed out. It happens. Hulu, established in 2007, offers plans ranging from $7.99 to $89.99 across iOS, Android, and desktop. With recent price hikes and the confusing Disney+ app merger, cancelling can save you up to $90 monthly. Visit Hulu to stop the charges. Trustpilot users give the service a dismal 1.2 stars, citing endless ads and billing nightmares as top complaints. Pissed Consumer logs thousands of grievances about difficult cancellations and support running users in circles. If you are tired of paying for ads or technical glitches, here is how to cut the cord.
How to Cancel Hulu on Desktop or Laptop
If you pay Hulu directly, using a desktop browser is the path of least resistance. The mobile app often redirects you anyway.
1 Log In to Your Account
Go to Hulu.com on a web browser and log in. This is usually the most reliable method since the mobile app often hides the cancel button to keep you subscribed.
2 Access Account Settings
Hover over your name in the top right corner and click Account. You might need to enter your password again. Security checks, you know.
3 Find Your Subscription
Scroll down to the Your Subscription section. It is usually near the bottom. Look for the Cancel button next to your plan details.
4 Confirm Cancellation
Click Cancel. Hulu will try to make you pause your subscription instead. Ignore the offer and select Continue to Cancel. You might have to click it twice. Seriously.
How to Cancel Hulu on iPhone (iOS)
This method only works if you subscribed via the App Store. If you signed up on the website, go back to the desktop instructions.
1 Open Settings
Tap the Settings app on your iPhone home screen. Do not open the Hulu app itself; you cannot cancel inside it if you pay through Apple.
2 Tap Your Apple ID
Tap your name at the very top of the Settings menu to open your Apple ID profile.
3 Select Subscriptions
Tap Subscriptions. Wait a second for the list to load. If you have a lot of apps, this might take a moment.
4 Cancel Hulu
Find Hulu in the list and tap it. Select Cancel Subscription. If you do not see a cancel button, it might already be cancelled or billed through a different provider.
How to Cancel Hulu on Android
For users billed through Google Play. If you do not see Hulu here, you likely paid directly with a credit card and need to use the desktop method.
1 Open Google Play Store
Launch the Google Play Store app. Make sure you are signed into the correct Google account.
2 Tap Profile Icon
Tap your profile picture in the top right corner.
3 Navigate to Payments
Tap Payments & subscriptions and then select Subscriptions.
4 Cancel Subscription
Select Hulu from the list. Tap Cancel subscription and follow the on-screen prompts to confirm. Google usually asks why you are leaving. Just pick any reason.
What is Hulu Cancellation Policy
Hulu allows you to cancel at any time, but they do not give refunds for partial months. Once you cancel, you keep access to the library until the end of your current billing cycle. So if you cancel on the 2nd and your cycle ends on the 30th, you still have 28 days of access. However, if you are on a free trial, access usually cuts off immediately. Users on Trustpilot frequently complain about being charged right after the trial ends, so cancel at least 24 hours before the deadline.
Before You Cancel Hulu: What You Should Know
Before you pull the plug, check if you are part of a bundle. If you have the Disney Bundle (Disney+, Hulu, ESPN+), cancelling Hulu might mess up your access to the other apps or change the pricing of the remaining services. Also, Hulu offers a Pause feature for up to 12 weeks. If you are just traveling or broke this month, pausing might be easier than setting up a new account later. But remember, it auto-renews after the pause ends.
Having Trouble Cancelling Your Hulu Subscription?
If the steps above did not work, you are likely billed through a third party. This is a common headache.
- Amazon/Roku: If you signed up via your TV, you must cancel through your Amazon or Roku account page.
- Spotify Student: If you have Hulu through Spotify, you manage it in your Spotify account settings.
- Verizon/T-Mobile: Carrier bundles must be managed through the carrier's app or website.
- Still stuck? Try clearing your browser cache or using an Incognito window. Sometimes the "Cancel" button just fails to load due to ad blockers.
