SoundCloud, established in 2007, gave us the mumble rap era, but maybe you have moved on. With subscriptions costing $4.99 to $9.99 monthly, cancelling saves you up to $120 annually across iOS, Android, and desktop. Visit SoundCloud Go. Trustpilot reviews are brutal, often citing "non-existent support" and billing glitches. Pissed Consumer tracks over 200 recent complaints, specifically regarding "unauthorized charges" and "login loops." It feels like the recent streaming price hike fatigue everyone is talking about online. If you are done paying for silence, here is the fix.
How to Cancel SoundCloud Go on iPhone (iOS)
1 Open Settings
Grab your iPhone and tap the grey Settings gear icon. Do not open the SoundCloud app itself because Apple handles the billing if you signed up there.
2 Tap Your Name
Click your Apple ID banner at the very top of the screen. It is the one with your name and profile picture.
3 Select Subscriptions
Tap Subscriptions. If you do not see it, look under 'Media & Purchases' or just search 'Subscriptions' in the main settings bar.
4 Cancel Subscription
Find SoundCloud in the list. Tap it, then hit Cancel Subscription. If you only see 'Renew' or 'Expire', it is already done.
How to Cancel SoundCloud Go on Android
1 Open Google Play Store
Launch the Google Play Store app. Most Android users pay through Google rather than the direct app.

Select Payments & subscriptions, then tap Subscriptions to see the list of apps taking your money.

Tap SoundCloud. Select Cancel subscription at the bottom. Follow the prompts to confirm you really want to leave.
How to Cancel SoundCloud Go on Desktop

Go to the SoundCloud website on your browser and log in. This is the only way if you paid directly with a credit card.
2 Go to Settings
Click the three dots (or your profile image) in the top right corner and select Settings from the dropdown menu.
3 Navigate to Subscriptions
Click the Subscriptions tab. You should see your current plan details there.
4 Opt Out
Click the Edit button next to your plan status. Then select Opt out of subscription renewal. You might have to click through a 'Are you sure?' page.
What is SoundCloud Go Cancellation Policy
SoundCloud is pretty rigid here. If you cancel, your subscription stops renewing, but you keep access until the current billing period ends. They generally do not offer refunds for partial months. This is a huge pain point on Trustpilot, where users complain about being charged a full month even if they cancel one day late. Once you cancel, your account reverts to the free version, meaning ads come back and offline listening disappears. Your playlists stay, but the offline files vanish.
Having Trouble Cancelling Your SoundCloud Go Subscription?
If you cannot find the cancel button, you are likely looking in the wrong place. This happens constantly.
- Check the Source: If you bought it on iPhone, the cancel button does not exist on the website. You must use Apple Settings.
- Check Google Play: Same goes for Android. The app might just tell you to manage it elsewhere.
- Browser Issues: Try using Incognito mode on a desktop. Sometimes the 'Edit' button on the subscription page glitches out due to ad blockers.
- Apple ID Confusion: Ensure you are logged into the Apple ID used to purchase the plan. I have seen people panic because the sub wasn't listed, only to realize they used an old email.
