MLB.TV has been streaming baseball since its launch in 2002, letting you watch live and on-demand games. But maybe you're tired of paying during the offseason or you're just fed up with the blackout restrictions that prevent you from watching your local team. It's a common complaint. With plans ranging from $29.99 to $149.99, you can save up to $150 a year by canceling. This guide will walk you through canceling on Desktop, iOS, and Android so you can stop the charges.
How to Cancel MLB.TV Subscription on Desktop
This is the most direct way to cancel if you signed up on their website. It can be a little clunky. Weirdly, a friend mentioned the page timed out on them once, so they had to reload and start over. Just be patient.
1 Log In to Your MLB.com Account
Head over to the official MLB.com website on your computer. Make sure you're logged into the correct account.
2 Navigate to Subscriptions
Click the Profile icon in the top right corner, then select Audio/Video Subscriptions from the dropdown. Honestly, I had to look for a minute, this link isn't exactly obvious.
3 Find Your Active Plan
You should see your active MLB.TV plan listed here. It will show the plan type and the next billing date.
4 Cancel and Confirm
Click the Cancel Subscription link. The site will probably ask you for a reason and might offer you a discount to stay. Just push through and confirm the cancellation.
How to Cancel MLB.TV Subscription on iOS
If you paid through the App Store, you have to cancel through Apple. It's a standard process for any iOS subscription, but it's easy to forget where to look.
1 Open Your Device Settings
You can't cancel in the MLB app. You have to go to your iPhone or iPad's main Settings app.
2 Go to Your Apple ID
Tap on your Apple ID profile (your name) right at the top of the Settings screen.
3 Select Subscriptions
Find and tap on the Subscriptions menu item to see all your App Store-billed subscriptions.
4 Find MLB.TV and Cancel
Scroll through the list to find MLB.TV. Tap on it, then hit the Cancel Subscription button. Apple will handle the rest.
How to Cancel MLB.TV Subscription on Android
For Android users, the cancellation process runs through the Google Play Store. It's pretty simple once you know where to click.
1 Open the Google Play Store
Open the Google Play Store app on your Android device. This is where all your app subscriptions live.
2 Tap Your Profile Icon
Tap on your profile icon in the top-right corner of the screen.
3 Go to Payments & Subscriptions
In the menu that pops up, select Payments & subscriptions, and then tap Subscriptions on the next screen.
4 Locate MLB.TV and Cancel
Find MLB.TV in your list of active subscriptions, tap on it, and then select Cancel subscription. Follow the final prompts to confirm.
Cancel MLB.TV Subscription with phone
You can call their customer service at 866-800-1275. They are generally available from 12:00 PM to 8:00 PM ET during the offseason and have extended hours during the season. Be ready for a possible wait.
Cancel MLB.TV Subscription with live chat
MLB.TV has a live chat option on its support website. Go to the MLB.com Help Center and look for the chat icon. Response times can vary, especially on game days. One user on Reddit said, 'The chat bot was useless, had to type 'agent' three times to get a real person.'
Before you do it, just know that MLB.TV doesn't give refunds if you cancel mid-cycle. Not a penny. You'll keep your access until the date you've already paid for, but then it will stop. There is no 'pause' option either, so canceling is the only way to stop the charges.
